Does your Garmin get signal inside like that? Mine does not.

My Garmin Montana gets a good GPS and InReach signal. I have it mounted to a 67 Designs short arm. The only complaint I have with the mount is that the GPS vibrates wildly when driving the wrong speed on washboarded roads.

Yes. I just used it to track my morning drive and it worked.

Been a while since I’ve posted any updates. Finally installed 37’s and 2.5 EVO Enforcer last weekend. So much better all the way around than stock. Thanks again to Jeremy at Disciple for helping with all of my pre-purchase questions.

Looks great! Been wondering where you got to!

You still like that tall rack or would you get it shorter if you had to do it over again?

Looks great! For what scenarios do you notice the most benefit? Is there much benefit on normal (semi-rough) streets?

The tall rack might be shortened automatically if he drives under a low branch.

It’s as short as I can go and put my fridge back there. While I like the height, I’d rather have the tent on a little box trailer. Having to pack up “camp” to go explore is a bummer.

Actually haven’t had it off road yet, but it drives far better on the street (both around town and on the freeway). I should get it on the dirt next weekend.

Oh you have a decked system don’t you? Forgot about that.

Ha! I can still fit in my garage just fine. It’s shorter than most tall racks (less than cab height).

Was a pleasure helping you out! Glad you are enjoying the new setup

Glad you’re back man, enjoyed your posts.

Continuing my quest to be an overlander. A few more mods and I’ll get zip off pants.

Hopefully not just the legs.

Jabberjaw is about to hit 64K miles on the original batteries. Recently I’ve been getting an “Auxiliary switches temporarily unavailable battery charging” when I start her up. The switches are typically available after 2-3 minutes of run time and my voltage at the gauge pretty consistently stays at 14.0V.

So what say you? Am I bumping up against the need to replace both batteries or is it some other gremlin?

That’s how mine first started.

I’d say it’s time for both batteries.

Exactly what mine did. Dealer replaced both batteries and it fixed it.

As mentioned by other do both batteries. I ran like that for about a year till I bit the bullet.
