I don't know why, but I just cannot shake the boy-racer side of me that has a soft spot for LED light bars :roll: I would actually really like to go with something more like the KC Gravity Pro-6 setup with it's round lights that seem a little more fitting with the softer lines of the 6G, but both VISA and Mastercard have suspended my sponsorships so I am relegated to the likes of Amazon special edition units... At any rate, I spent a little time fab'ing up some simple brackets and hung a 50" curved unit over the weekend:

Well... in a very disheartening turn of events, the LED light bar is no more :cry: After several attempts to mitigate the wind noise, I just could not live with it for a daily driver and it had to come back off:

On the other end of things, literally, I spent a few minutes combing the online catalogs found a replacement swing gate cylinder that would prevent the gate from opening beyond 90*, avoiding the collision of my Rotopax with my taillight housing when I have it strapped to the spare tire:

Finally took the time to install a permanent brake controller... As I've mentioned before, I really like the wireless brake control setup as it works flawlessly and is brick simple to move between vehicles, but the trailer mounted control module is not handy for multiple trailers. Since the Donkey sees duty towing our camp trailer, flatbed, and dump trailer from time to time, having a dedicated brake controller just makes life easier. And I'm lazy, so I'm all about making life easier :lol2
