Tach mount looks great. Nice work in the space of the battery box. Did you step down voltage to the rear seat 12v, connect it to one battery, or other?
Discovered and cleaned a rats nest out of fan box today.
Rat jumped out when I opened the hood.
Now I'm trouble shooting a no start issue, chewed wire possible but nothing yet seen.
Cranks but no start or even smoke.
Batteries fresh
Glow plugs 3 months old
Ground harness installed

Picked up an "unkown" vehicle part from GL to fabricate a front barrier, so I can push stuff around on the ranch. With a couple of mods I should be able to use the brush guard brackets and switch out as needed.
Continued cleaning out the grime, removed the batteries and cleaned the battery box, will have to replace fairly soon.
Can someone tell me if a fire extinguisher goes here (see above photo)? Thought it would also be good location for a spare 24V NATO jumper cable.
Batteries were Exide 6TMF...
If I do put an inverter I'll insulate the box first. The floor wasn't draining properly (looks like vehicle struck object on underside) so repairing that first.
Got her first washing since coming home. Cleaned out the mud and debris under back seats and prepped for modifications. Thinking about a power inverter mounted under rear seat, looked like there were electronics in there previously.
