After opening the drain (clear rubber hose attached) and letting it run out, I slid a 1 gallon ziplock bag up around the rear filter housing, then the socket wrench to remove....., no mess any excess caught in bag.

Just curious how much did this Line-x cost you?

That is quite a load. Hopefully you don't get pulled over for being overweight. LOL
EXCELLENT Idea!

Forgot to mention, on the front filter I removed the factory short drain hose and added a longer hose, rerouting it so it didn't run all over the front axle etc.

What size ID tubing did you use? C

I watched a you tube video that said 1/2" ID for the front and 3/8" ID for the back. However the 3/8" ID tubing didn't fit tight so had to hold it up there while draining, I need to measure and get a smaller ID.

Installed a NOCO plug under the front facia for the trickle charger and block heater. The block heater is not connected at the moment but I like to leave the truck on a trickle charge if it is going to sit for more than a week.
Neat install. I’m considering something similar. Do you find the 2amp charger sufficient to keep both batteries topped off?

And today it got a little tint on the front windows. Next up is a roll up bed cover. Hopefully tomorrow evening.

Which cover did you go with?

BAK Revolver X4S. Should be able to get a pic or two when it's installed.

Cool, I want a sturdy roll up also. Have that one on my list to consider, interested in how you like it.
what all does the duel battery set up entail? Isolator? How does it deal with the intelligent battery sensor thing?

Yes, no problem provided you are not using any power.

Install was easy and took about 20 or 30 minutes. BAK has improved the design and the X4S apparently took care of an issue several customers had.
I like the latch system better than all of the other brands and types of covers I've owned. It fits well.
The aluminum slats seem sturdy and the matte vinyl cover goes well with my midnight edition.

That’s perty. Now go blast it with water and let me know how it holds up.
