Installation of the Demello Offroad Flattop bumper happened today. Quality, fit and finish is outstanding. Daniel did awesome work on the installation, looks like it came from the factory. Could not be happier, love the finished product!! I am happy I did my research because there are so many different companies out there. I highly recommend Jason Demello, and no I did not get any type of discount......I just think in my opinion it is an excellent choice!!

Little update..............no longer in California. Transferred to DC and bought our retirement home in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia. 9 moves in the last 22 years is enough, we love the area..............Here are a few pics of the house and some of our neighbors, the only ones we have..........LOL. It is a Lindal Cedar home on 27 acres..........pure paradise!

Due to no snow or rain in California. Changed out my tires to some Falken Wildpeak AT3 265 75 16 E rated. Loved the Hankook, but needed something more suited for rain and snow. Love them so far, so quiet compared to the MT tire. I got so use to the noise, I did not realize how loud the MT's were, had them on there for around 23,000 miles. Also got some new VTX Wheels and swapped everything out. Very happy with the Wheels, love the look of them. Love the black!!

Dude! That's beautiful!! Congrats on the move and the purchase of your own piece of paradise!!
Nice choice on the tires. I'm going the same route soon in the same size.
 
Over the last couple of days I removed ALL my wiring for my dual batteries. I was having issues with my starter battery not charging , keeping charged, being drained, etc. Anyway, I had the Offgrid engineering with the Blue Sea isolator and it seems due to our smart alternators that is where my issue was. I have spent days reading and searching info. I also read thru this whole thread, lots of great info..................as well as the help here I received.

I am replacing the system with a CTEK DC-DC and mounting my second battery in the bed. I am going to plan everything out and take my time with the install. Replaced my starting battery with one of my new Northstar batteries............I bought the 2 group 35's before deciding to relocate the 2nd battery in the bed or I probably would have gotten a larger starter battery.

Finally put the new Engel fridge in the back...................had to use a board under the fridge due to having the jumbo slide, I love it! However, it will be a little while to have it running since I have plans to redo all the wiring and dual battery stuff.
