Re: What is a good size Inverter for a Pinz at idle?

Don't forget not to skimp on the conductor size from the battery to inverter! This is the problem with a lot of RV's that come with inverters from the manufacturer. And it was a problem with my solar setup when I bought the pinz. Might not be too big an issue if you're not using it very much, though...

Cab lighting and solar panel

The seats are the Corbeau Moabs. They were mounted on the stock rails so they are really easy in and out without any modification to the truck. Mark mounted them awesome. I'm 6'1" and I can see out the front window without feeling too high at all. http://corbeau.com/products/reclining_seats/mo...

There is some serous muddy hill sliding towards the end there. Crazy!

Re: Moab, Needles, White Rim.. Gwagen upgrades

The G looks awesome. Wish I could come see it, but I'll be a few weeks behind in arriving to Moab.

Dremel. I used the little cut-off wheel thing, then filed it with a metal file to get the fit right.

Re: Door near tail light

So, I guess the question I have is that if I have the backup switch, which I bought from Scott, and I wire it using the "pink wire" that he details in his instructions, does the pink wire control a relay that, in turn, controls power to this wire? (Do I hook up the light to this wire and ...

Cab lighting and solar panel

In another thread I posted pictures of my new battery meters. I also threw in a switch for some under-cabinet residential LED strips I had left over. They have sticky-tape that works great on the square tube of the bulkhead. Stayed stuck all winter (without power). Finally some cab lighting! These t...

Re: Pinz Voltmeter

Spring time is great for working on old projects that have been piling up. I finally got my battery meters finished. Not sure if I'll make a fancy label or not. I used part of a dog-destroyed extension cord with ground to get the three voltage points off the main batteries. Same for the aux. each wi...

Bangs canyon in western Colorado.

Finally got the pinz out to stretch out its joints. Lots of good trail here: I got a few tires in the air a few times and got used to relaxing when she tips. Had many times when I had to lock front and rear diffs to get up the trail, which was a blast. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/04/06/jamu7y8a.jpg...

Re: Rear seat belts wanted

What is the e-trac? Is it part of the pinz already? I see the belts and an end cap on EI, but not the track.

Rear seat belts wanted

Just want to check the waters and see if anyone has some seat belts for a 710m laying around that they want to get rid of.

I hear that EI sells them.
