Totally agree. Speaking of hood locks, we installed the MOPAR hood lock (plus transmission oil cooler, new radiator, new water pump, new plugs, new plug wires, and horizontal headlight adjustment screws LOL) over Christmas break for this reason. We like the extra security, as we have a Genesis...

I'm running the 3' Firestik II. The SWR meter barely moves when I key the mic unless I'm around channel 20 (it might get to 1.3/1.4). It's on the tailgate, right next to all of this metal. Note, the Hi-Lift is not attached in this picture, but the SWR values were taken while it was installed:

Finished OK, this took some time, but here it is. 1. Removed powder coat. Paint stripper was more or less ineffective, so we had to use an angle grinder + flap wheel (80 grit), dremel, and orbital sander (80 grit, 150 grit, 220 grit final). 2. Squared out the existing round holes to...

You are describing the need for a dual battery system with an isolator (to separate them). If you run the batteries in parallel and connect the winch to one of them, you will most likely draw current from both, and deplete both. If you use an isolator, and again connect the winch to one battery...

We used a competing brand, but same idea: Even took video of using it, if anyone is interested.

Actually, no, that's the not the same one. We used the 5TUW5 - it looks like bolt cutters:

Someone asked me about the fit & finish of our Evo Rock Skins. I figured why not post here? I uploaded high-res close-ups of the skins after installation, and then a few smaller pictures of activities during the install. I HIGHLY recommend buying a tool such as the Westward 5TUW5 to crimp the...
