Today I'll be doing updates to things already on my Raptor. First up replace the DBS bugscreen, the one on my truck now is four years old, it's dirty and has a few holes. Then on to the Moroso clear canister for the oil separator. I also scored a A7 NAV map for $46 with free shipping from ebay so I'll be installing that as well.

Motorcycle license plate holder

Used a Jeep flip up plate for winches so I can still access the hitch. I still need to work on it because the lights won't work flipping up. I can't stand it to the side being asymmetrical.

That was my biggest concern. I'm all about it being symmetrical as well. Why won't the lights work flipping up?

They come in contact with the upper bar on the bumper. They are about 1" long, so I need to find something shorter then it will clear with no problem.

If only they had given me mine back, I would've given them to you. The ones I had were shorter then yours, I think.

Throughly cleaned truck after 3 weeks in Cholla Bay, MX. No phone, tv, Internet, only the Sea of Cortez to watch for entertainment. Raptor rolled over 60k just as I cleared 60 years at JJ's. CBP broke latch on tonneau cover during return inspection, easier to get fixed than fill out claim.

She's approaching 30k miles and I'm ready to start prepping for the next TRR.. Ready to get this city slicker off the streets and into some dirt.

Nice reflections though from #2? @AdamsPolishes

Excellent reflection shot!

Although it might seem counterintuitive, I would recommend that you give your truck a full detail PRIOR to the muddy fun at TRR.

Having the truck sealed and protected will make clean-up way easier. Paint Sealant and a fresh coat of H2O Guard & Gloss, a generous application of VRT to keep from getting mud stains on the trim, along with some Tire Shine to prevent mud stains on the tires. I would even apply some Invisible Undercarriage Spray to help with cleaning the mud from the wheel wells.
