Darksidesm Posted July 22, 2018 Author Share Posted July 22, 2018 That's a different story entirely. In that case, the hornet/wasp spray that shoots a jet of foam would be my choice. I used it the other day and it was pretty effective. Yeah. I went through 2 cans. Lol. I sprayed one nest this morning. This evening there was a pile of them on the ground and a couple were back building the nest. I've sprayed and knocked down 2 today under my hood in the same spot. These little suckers are persistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got it started up and moved it to the side of my house behind a gate. Now I can have peace and quiet when I work on it. To get it in I had about 2.5 inches from each mirror to the fence post. Took a few back and forths to get it lined up but I managed to not hit anything. And no fire from the wiring. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least it is secure. Good job removing the auxiliary battery. Do you think you might want to put it back some day? If not you might consider removing the mount, tray, relay, etc and selling them as someone else might want an auxiliary battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it was outside I had to work like 3 feet from a sidewalk on street with a lot of people passing by. Every time I needed a tool I didn't have I had to gather everything up and go to the back yard and into the garage. Growing up in Phoenix and Las Vegas I dont leave anything out of my direct sight. I decided to hold on to the auxiliary parts for now. I might someday decide I want it back in. I was thinking of repurposing the battery holder by securing a small metal tool box in there. That away I will always have tools and dont have to worry about someone breaking a window to steal them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rembrant Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Ok. Sorry my project is not very exciting. Lol. That's OK, I think for a lot of us these are longer term projects so the thread updates can be few and far between. Truck looks good in the pics.

Should be lots faster now. As for a tool box, you might also look for one of the factory underhood toolboxes. It can't be used with the aux battery so you'd have to chose which one. But, it looks cool and is very functional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
