What did you do with your Grenadier today?

[LabRat]

If you've ever seen an Amish-build shed, they almost exclusively made with square-drive screws.

And Amish decks

I grew up in Amish country, so I know of which you speak!

Got my White Knuckle rock sliders on today - easy install & I think they look greatView attachment 7915827View attachment 7915824View attachment 7915825

Where did you get the raised letter for your grenadier hood?

Installed the DVA Mechanics roof spoiler. Always been the type to check off the aero kit option box on my cars. This part adds a bit of panache to the rear end and is only really noticeable to the most discerning IG eye.

• Very well packaged
• Fits great
• Very responsive customer service
• Totally reversible

I'm really happy with the look and always grateful for legit vendors, in the hopefully burgeoning, Grenadier aftermarket ecosystem!

Love it. Don’t have black roof and have been bugging @DVA Mechanics to get a picture of a painted one…

Working on a Wolfbox install this morning I was reminded of why the Grenadier costs what it does.

Dust that got into the door (partly my fault) was stopped from getting into the cabin.

Dust seals on the rear three quarter door trim panel. Have a look at some of the direct competitors and see what they have.

Battery State of Charge

I purchased a Noco trickle charger for when I don't use the Grenadier for a while.

After charging the dual batteries to 100% I started the car and compared my Bluetooth monitor to the vehicle monitor.

I'm inclined to trust the Bluetooth monitor as it agrees with the charger.

Today, and the last few days I have spent my time sorting out the installation of a redarc tow pro brake controller in my quartermaster.

First I thought the Brake Module would be near the wheel well, so I took off that panel from the truck bed.

Not seeing it there I thought maybe I could run a wire from the connector near the hitch. So I messed around with that.

Then I realized the trailer module must be behind the seat so I proceeded to remove that. Then I realized I had access issues to some screws and removing the seat was the best bet, so I went to get a security style torx set to remove the seat. I have ended up taking more of the vehicle apart than I had planned, but it never hurts to know how things are put together.

I did squeeze some adventure in and used the truck to hand cut a Christmas Tree from the local start forest. So I did get some mud on the wheels at least !!

So, Tiny Rig made a part for Grenadiers that only the Amish can use?

Square drive screws are not that unusual. Pick up a matching bit for a couple of dollars at your local hardware store and all is well. It is not something to make a big fuss over.

Yeah, I went to said local hardware store, no square drive bits. Thanks for playing answer-man with us, now go away before I fetchez la vache.

I must be spoiled for choice at my local hardware store as they have square bits a plenty.

Bison basket arrived and was promptly installed. Very quick and easy. Impressions? Wow. This thing is a beast. Very solid and well made. I told myself I’d only need one, but its so good, I’ll likely end up with the left one some day. It perfectly fit the tow strap, tree keeper, soft shackles, snatch ring, etc. I also received the cargo shelf and was back and forth as to whether or not to keep it. I’m not sure I need the space at the moment. But I might one day

Still at it, I will post a how-to thread if I can get this thing done. LoL

Once you find the way to attack clipped on and screwed on panels they come off easy, but until you get the pattern, it can be a nightmare.

FYI, long story short, remove the seat, or at least almost remove it and slide it forward, then start at the top above the rear door, that exposes a 10mm nut, and from there the back panel behind the rear seat in quartermaster can be removed.

Now if I can recognize the trailer module from the pics in other posts on this topic.

I thought they would use what we call in old school wooden ship archaeology “Trunells”, what were originally called Tree Nails. A slightly offset hole alignment “tightened” by the Trunell when forced into the joint (or joynt in old school English furniture making) by an appropriately sized mallet. Which is of course wooden!
I’m saddened that the Amish have been polluted by modernisation!
