BTW I don't want to hear crap for parking in handicap spot as it is at my work and no one is handicap there and we have limited parking. Lol so we fill the spots and its a wider spot for my truck.

Here is the link:

It comes with 3, and while I normally like things in 3, I think it looks much better spanking across the grille more with 4.. now I have 2 more lights not sure if I should save in case 1 goes bad or if I should put them elsewhere.

Much appreciated for the link and extra pics. How did you install them, did you use a harness, what did you tap into to power them? Removed the grill? Any help, tips installation would be great, thanks.  BTW - nice truck!

First paint correction and seal on the AT4 now that winter is over. This blue looks even better after a clay/polish/seal.

Rifle/Shotgun storage was a big one for me.  I wanted to be able to travel for hunts without having a rifle or shotgun visible in the back seat.

Transporting long guns is why I bought the Du-Ha.  Now the tough question is which ones do I put in there?  I'm thinking 2 rifles and a shotgun.  Just gotta figure which ones.

 

Btw, the case arrived today.  I installed it into the truck right after I put my daughter down for her nap.

Thanks! I just tapped into the drl. No need to remove the grille just the plastic air intake cover under the front of the hood to access and run the wiring.

 

I wanted to get these installed to get rid of the old ones I had that didn't look go is and half burnt out (different lights then these), so I just used zip ties for now but will fab some kind of brackets eventually. But this is holding up great!

Made use of the huge center console, organization for the top and then created a false bottom  reusing the center console liner and 3” foam to conceal a handgun.

Same here. Just installed it last night. I also had the windshield ceramic tinted.

Very nice!

Rough Country dual 10 inch lights for the grill arrived.  Everything I've seen on this forum about the wire harness is true.  It's junk.  That's okay because I was intending to wire them up to switch #3 of the upfitter switches.  This means the wire harness from Rough Country is useless to me.  I bought some wire, deutsch connectors, loom, heat shrink, etc to create a new wire harness to wire directly to the switch.  It's going to look like the wiring came directly from Rough Country themselves. 

 

Btw, while researching deutsch connectors, because they're new to me, I found the exact same Rough Country wire harness sold separately on Amazon for $20 under a different name.

Installed Red LED strips in speaker grilles, door grab wells, and storage wells. Installed Red LED strips for cheap "demon eyes".

looks cool!  Do you have a link to these and how did you power them in all the locations?

No issue at my local area, ive been by multiple local cops, and drive by the police station daily. It would be an issue if they were flashing though no doubt.

 

Either:

 

A: They dont know about amber and white in the front as a law.

Or

B: They aren't concerned about it.

It took a lot of trial to get the right amount of lights.

I power them by using an add-a-circuit tapped to the parking lights, in the engine fuse box, with a wire going through the firewall.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By newdude · Posted

      No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.

      Active Grille Delete

      By jaszr2 · Posted

      Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By PBNB · Posted

      Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
