Yes, same one I bought.

Evo Manufacturing half-roof rack arrived. Some (a lot ) assembly required. Work in progress...

 

[wachuko]

Done! Half-roof rack installed.

Now I can measure and order a chase light to mount on the back of the roof rack!

I get a nasty vibration noise with the rack when going over 72mph... turns out it is the thin front metal vibrating. I had to add this rubber strip to dampen the vibration. All good now. Does not look that great, but it works.

4,700 miles- oil change done.

Old oil placed back into the canister… check the oil amount…

Interesting… this is where the oil level was for the new oil

Grimm Offroad winch mounting plate arrived

Winch mounted and wired.

I do want to replace the hook for one of those Factor 55 FlatLink Loaded Shackle Mount in orange... so Factor 55 ordered! ...along with some D-rings in orange as well...

Gave it a good wash... sucker was dirty!! With the stuff on it, I can't pass it through a carwash...

If I am not mistaken, this is the first time it gets washed after buying it back in September.

I need to decide on the amber/yellow chase lights and also finish wiring the bed rack lights.

I wished the 4XE charging port would fit the Mojave...would love to setup the air port there.

This is now done!

I feel you, I’m not made of money and building mine slowly as well

Installed inexpensive locks for the hood... just for a little peace of mind. In reality, anyone that wants to get in there, can do so easily. Too bad that I can't install the Bolt lock due to the front facing camera being there.

And installed some inexpensive chase lights. Still have to do the wiring, but they are in place. Just needed to drill three holes, two for the bolts and one for the wiring harness.
