What did you do to your TRX today?

I installed a cold air intake today, but I’m not so proud of my accomplishment now. Damn that suspension looks good.
Can’t wait to see how it performs
 
Turned on the tailgate ajar light
 
Did you also turn on the tailgate open animation in the EVIC?
is there something else that I need to do for that?? it shows the truck with the tailgate down when I put it in drive
 
Pulled the swingbox and Installed a high lift jack mount. Made for a gladiator but still works with Mopar rails nicely!

I installed a shift knob I ordered from MHF Auto Lighting. Unfortunately the set screw head from the original shift knob snapped off due to the loctite but I was able to carefully pry and cut it out otherwise it would have been a quick mod. I had to email them directly as I wanted it in matte CF with alcantara and an alcantara shift boot with the stitching to match what's already in the truck.

I also hard wired my Uniden R8 using a kit they sell, the housing for the plastic that holds the fuse they provide arrived broken so I just cut it off and added a fuse tap and plugged it into the cigarette lighter fuse under the dash. The detector will only come on if the truck is on.

Applied the Mopar OEM decals to the bed side. If you have the money, buy the Mopar ones, not the cheap ones from some of these vendors.

Looks like they are all coming in finally. Mine arrived today. 30 second install with one T25 screw.

I wish mine would have been that easy. I wanted to keep the original shift knob just in case but had to break it near the housing by the set screw as the screw head snapped off due to the Loctite.

Glad yours went smoothly. I spend about 45 mins on mine.

That sucks dude.
 
Drove the back roads on vacation last night. Basically no traffic after ten here. Found a nice 55 stretch that had a pretty sweet jump! Drove that stretch back n forth for about a half hour last night jumping the truck lol way fun!

Q: Have R7, gonna upgrade to R8 and move r7 to another vehicle probably. May install the R8 Kit the same way as you did. I was debating on picking up power at the rw mirror/camera. But Already added the front camera recording kit there. Not sure of power load…

That was the same thought that I was having. I dont know how much load that particular circuit can handle, someone else may want to chime in. Thats the reason why I opted to tap into the cigarette lighter fuse instead. Its not hard to route it to that location.
