What did you do to your TRX today?

[esm]

Drove about 40 miles down the National seashore in south Texas. Found a washed up boat too. View attachment 101816View attachment 101817View attachment 101818

PINS is one of the best kept secrets! It's amazing how clear the water is if you go far enough down on that beach and the closest person is 1/4 mile away! We know some park Rangers that are used to pulling over Raptors for speeding down the beach.

How crowded was it and do you live in Corpus?

It’s the only way to do the beach in the summer! My wife and daughters know I’m not parking until i can’t see anybody else. I’m a little bit south of San Antonio, but we used to have a house in port aransas too. It really is tempting to speed there, but they do indeed run radar!

Hauled the ol’ 1974 Airstream Argosy to storage. Needs a little more work before it’s ready for the 850 mile drive from Texas to Tennessee. The truck squatted by about 2” in the rear - not surprising, but a little disappointing as it’s only about 600 lbs of tongue load.
Finally had a valid excuse to flip up the tow mirrors!

Put the RamBar on yesterday and did some final tweaks today. Makes it look more TRX-y and takes me back to the 80s and 90s when they were on every cool truck.

Used Mopar lights and Mopar brackets because I have a kink about using factory parts if possible. Pretty damn bright and will come in handy this fall.

Looks awesome! Can you share part numbers on the Mopar lights and brackets?

Brackets: 82216127AA (sold in pairs so two sets needed for 4 lights)
Lights: 82215274AD (2 pack) or 82216514AA (4 pack)

I wound up buying two 2 packs because they were cheaper than one 4 pack on eBay at the time. But generally the 4 pack is a little cheaper. Lights come with nice long harnesses and plugs. I just cut the relays off and extended the power wires around 6 feet to reach the aux wire under the hood. Not a bad job at all.

Added missing LEDs in rear doors today, only had 1 correct harness for passenger rear, so I pulled a McGuyver on the drivers side and used the harness I pulled out. Black sharpie and I now have the correct harness...lol

I see you drilled into the rambar to run the wires internally, did you run the wires down through the front stake pocket hole into the bed then out into the inner/outer fender cavity to bring it down to the frame rail?

Didn’t need to drill the RamBar, the bar the lights mount to has holes on each side to run the wires from the factory. There’s some foam in the tubes you have to pull out, but after that it’s a straight shot down and into the stake pocket with the wire. In the stake pocket there’s a rubber plug facing the cab, I pulled that out and snuck the wires through that rather than going down into the abyss. The bed has a rubber strip against the cab that totally conceals the wires so you can’t see them from the side.

Hello All: Its been a while but I continue to enjoy the recent pics of what you all do to your TRX. So, last year I got my 22 TRX. Coming from a Gen 2 Raptor, I had 6 Rigid Radiance Scene pod lights that were mounted in the bumper. I mounted last year 2 on the front as ditch/pillar lights along with the Oracle light bar. The other two I mounted below the rear bumper. This weekend, I installed the last 2 Rigid lights as chase lights. I grew a little tired of waiting for someone to make brackets for chase lights that would work with the Ram soft cover. So, I put on my redneck hat, went to the local hardware store, picked up some L brackets and made it work. For under $40 that includes the brackets, the bolts/nuts/washers, wiring, wiring sheath, and connectors, I was able to mount my last 2 Rigid lights as chase lights. The lights are mounted high enough so that if I retract the soft cover, the lights are just above the cover. I did have to drill two holes in the bed/rear rail to connect the brackets to make it work. Bets of luck and still a happy TRX owner!!! Cheers!

looks nice. I am leaning toward the ADD Stealth Chase rack. It looks more "industrial". and a bit lower, so it will still clear my garage.

They’re 35x12.50s on 22x12s
