Put a new pair of back up pods on.

Changed the fuel filters also. Pretty sure I was over due

That how my last fuel filter swapped looked. I wasn't to far over due but had been running motor oil and chit in my fuel.

I just drilled a couple holes at he end of my hitch. Closed enough the end I can get a wrench on the bolt. I didn't wire them into the R lights. I ran them up to the aux2 switch. I like running it from there bc I can turn them on whenever I want. We use the lights when we're mowing fields at night with the draper head. Easier to watch the head and make sure your not going to hit anything with it. Also use them when we fuel the combine up at the end of the day. Just light the area up a little bit.

Here is what they look like in the daylight. Drilling the holes and mounting them on the hitch works perfectly. They are angled so it lights up to where you need to see backing and not just straight back as if they were flushed mounted in the bumper. They are a flood Pattern but the majority of the light is angled to the sides which I really like. Personal preference on whatever you want to do. I didn't trust myself to cut a hole in a perfectly good bumper to flush mount them.

Where they are mounted.

The bolt is about 2" inside the hitch tube.

Air tested my HPO system...have a leak somewhere, or my IPR isn't working. Got hot and sweaty, got frustrated with it, remembered it's a holiday, put all my tools up, shut the hood and walked away. I'll deal with it next weekend. The beater needs some miles put on it anyways.

Washed, Clay bar and waxed the dually (Along with the work truck and the girlfriends car). The interiors stay clean most of the time but got the Lexol treatment a few weekends ago.

Towed a 2nd Gen Dodge 400 miles up to Coeur D Alene, ID for Alligator's Hunting 4 Horsepower event. A buddy went with new and it was cheaper to tow his truck than for us to each drive our own.

Ran her hard in the dirt drags and sled pulls, placed 2nd in 2.5 class, then changed the tune and towed the Dodge back lol. Not a lick of trouble and other than a couple hills I had to show down on to keep Egts in check....she towed the trailer beautifully.

I love watching 6.0s kick a$$ at diesel events. The best part is the cummins guys talking **** about a 6.0 before the event and then left speechless afterwards. I've always been a fan of the underdog. Lol
