    Nice, i would not want to use my small arb compressor. Pretty sure ARB TELLS YOU ITS FOR DIFF only. Nice set-up. I would havd never thought to do that. How low do you air down?

    I’ve had 4 or 5 ARB lockers in my various jeeps and jeep’s axles. I’ve only used the older single cylinder ARB compressor…which kinda sucked for airing up any tire over about 31”. I eventually installed a York AC compressor to fill up my 37x13.5x15 tires. I also had a Power Tank as well. I am curious about how well the ARB twin compressor works. I can only assume that it’s overpriced since it says ARB on the side of it. I’d be tempted to buy a 100% duty cycle Viair compressor instead.

    Nice. My truck came with pretty dark tint. While it's not something I would have gone out of my way to do, I'll admit I like it. Except after dark. Then it's pretty damn annoying. But it makes a huge difference in cab temperature, and how intense the sun is on my arm or neck when I'm driving. And it's better privacy when I'm changing my clothes in there after a hike or something...

    You hike with clothes on? Damn, weirdo, what planet are you from? :rofl:

    (Just kidding, but all jokes aside, the first time I ever went to Germany, I was hanging out in Munich with this older couple having beers and sausage, total strangers but they wanted to practice their English and invited me over. We were talking about hiking, they loved hiking, but she mentioned how much they hated the Austrians, because they love hiking naked! I asked several others over the years, and they all recounted several instances where they ran into naked Austrians hiking through the mountains. Such a classic example of those weird little tidbits you stumble across if you take time to travel, and talk to people!)

    That's hilarious. Never run into that yet. Only at natural hot springs. Where it actually makes sense.

    Between the tinted windows and my windshield shade, I have very good privacy in there.

    My tint is dark enough that even though my new rear topper window isn't tinted as dark as I'd like (still pretty easy to see what's in there), if it were any darker, no way I'd be able to see out the rearview mirror. So I guess it worked out ok in the end. Too many layers of tinted glass between me and the road behind me.

    Went to the junkyard and picked up a blower fan, battery bracket and gas door (the retention clip for my gas door rusted off, and I didn't have a T30 with me to just take off the clip from the yard - the door is held on by phillips screws).

    Of course when I got home, the head off the T30 on my truck busted while trying to remove what was left of the old clip, so now I get to figure out how to drill that thing out of there.

    Hahah awesome!!! My aunt had pugs, they are pretty fun dogs, daisy is the smallest dog I’ve ever had, but she has napoleon issues so she doesn’t fuck around(part of that complex came from being around dozer who was her ride or die homie since they were young, he was 90lbs of goofy)

    Nailed it.

    I hear that you don't have to go as dark to get the same effect with ceramic tint. I plan to try it out someday.

    I just saw a video on IG earlier of a pit bull putting it's paw in a Jack Russel terrier's face... The JRT got fired up and the pit bull ran scared. It was hilarious.

    Again she got big in her boots, just because of him, he would mainly back her up with a deep baritone bark; it was quite the symphony(super sad when he wasn’t there, just her all alone trying to be tuff) but he was a big lover and super easy going, he used to walk himself just staying close by us and the kids around the hood, daisy would charge and run at anything.

    My little dog was just a big dog at heart. She thought she was queen of the block and she would always be the first to strike in a fight against a bigger dog. Lol

    Hell yeah, that’s pretty much daisy. We were hiking with both of them near slide rock in Sedona, and random dude was like can I pet her? And we’re like no she doesn’t like strangers and can be a bitch, as we’re holding her away. Hahahahahahahah he then leans down to pet her and she lunges at him!!! I think he changed his shorts after that!
    But Django has kinda learned some traits from her, so playing ball, it’s like a battle to the death, she can’t see……… I watched him toss her around like a rag doll, full on neck clinch, FAFO kinda situation. And I don’t blame him at all because she started it and he had to protect himself. So now we only do serious ball throwing separately

    Well dammit. 1st snag. I really thought I'd be getting everything I needed for this install, but I apparently misunderstood what this line boxed in red means. I have SS3 pods and made the false assumption they had round bezels. Well, apparently this is what I was missing, had to email and ask Foxbeam if that's the missing link. Damn, fam. I kinda hoped at the price point, I'd be getting everything I'd need to make this happen. Emailed their support just to confirm that's what I'm missing. Literally woulda paid $20 more if it included everything you technically need. Bummer :(

    Fogs gotta wait, I guess! I was stoked when I saw someone post this kit on bacefook. Finally, the answer to my dilemma. At least the product looks quality.

    the ARB twin still takes a minute but it’s the convenience factor. I have the morrflate dual compressor with the 4 tire hose kit. It works on 37’s really well and you can hard mount and wire it, but I just choose not to.

    When I first got it home I considered running by the police station to ask whether my tint is legal. At least around here, I don't expect to get pulled over. But it would be annoying to get pulled over for it in another state. I kind of just stopped thinking about it. Should probably make sure...

    Definitely illegal in TX, but they're about to do a way with state safety inspections here. So I don't know if they'll keep enforcing the states stupid tint laws
