Got a Yakima load warrior rack with crossbars and extension. OEM rack was too flimsy.

Now time to get out and get dirty!!
 
Oh, also installed Mile Marker manual hubs and got an aluminium skid plate from 4x4 designs in QC! Not mounted yet but will follow suite very soon!

Future additions will likely consist of roof rack lights, rock sliders and maybe down the road a custom front bumper.

I feel like I'm forgetting some things. Oh I upgraded the headlight bulbs to brighter Philips. Not HID, no worries, I can't stand those in non projector housings.

And lastly, (doing things backwards again) quick intro as I haven't posted much here yet. Mostly on NPORA and I see a lot of guys from there on here too. But now that I have the rig where I wanted it, I'll be starting to get out exploring more.

Was wondering when you were going to come over here. Your PF definitely fits in really well here. :)

I really like what you did with the jerry can holder/swing away. I just can't remember how you mounted it. Is it bolted on underneath or...?
 
It's a trailer hitch mount. Haven't got around to finish it yet though.
Been on here a little while, just not as active poster as I don't do as much exploring as I'd like at this point so I read every body else's adventures.

Take a look at my rear window decal:

Great looking truck mate. I like all the mods very functional and i think i will steal the Smittybilt seat cover idea :)
 
Thanks Marty, today I actually made a slight adjustment to it, instead of going over the head rest, I made it just cover the seat, not the headrest. I like it better. Didn't take pics though.

I also added 2 quick fist mounts to store my axe as I mostly use this rig for working in the woods.
