I bought Rocky the first of June 2024. Rocky was made 03/2024, and is a Base HD Model in OD Green.
I bought Rocky from Hirsch Feed and Farm Supply in West Plains Missouri.
Mark Bunch the Equipment Sales Manager was great to work with. You would have thought that we had been close friends for years. They checked Rocky out, filled it up with Diesel Fuel, and delivered it to my house 52 miles away from the dealership at no charge. I was totally happy with my sales experience. FIVE PLUS STARS.
The following day I loaded Rocky on my trailer and hauled it to Nathans Tire Shop in Summersville Missouri, and swapped the 4 Ply factory tires for something more appropriate. We installed Thunderer TracGrip M/T LT235/85R16 10 Ply Tires.
Next I installed the Fortress 2 Passenger Low Pro Level 2 Roof, with Insulation.
We also installed a Fortress Tilt Out Windshield at the same time. This windshield had a single windshield wiper.
I got both the top and windshield from a member in Van Buren Missouri who had installed a Hard Cab.
The next upgrade was an OEM Side Step from Diesel Freak.
I then installed a pair of Smitty Bilt Black Trail Mirrors. I originally bought this set of mirrors for my Wrangler MOAB to use with the Doors off. However they vibrated like crazy, and I bought a much better set of side mirrors. NOTE: These mirrors mount perfectly flat on the Roxor, and do not vibrate.
Next was a Universal Rear View Mirror from NAPA. I had the lady at Glass Plus install it.
Next was a set of Roll Bar mounted Sun Visors. They could have been a little larger, but they are doing ok.
I just made another order for Round Two of the build.
I have my Torq Locker on hand from On The Rox. I will take Rocky to the shop Tuesday to have the Torq Locker installed in the rear axle. I rounded up an old school Hub Puller just in case the garage did not own one. UPDATE: The trip to the shop did not happen so far.
My Light Bar OEM Switch was delivered also.
I have a pair of Harbor Freight Rock Lights to use for Interior Lighting.
I have a 6" ( SIX LED) Flood Light on hand from Harbor Freight for Rear Lighting.
I also have a 6 Circuit Auxiliary Fuse Panel with Relay to power up Lights, Wipers, etc.
STILL ON ORDER LIST:
Truck Lite 900 Turn Signal Switch on order from Vehicle Safety Supply.
Hard Cab Rear Two Piece Bulk Head on order from Diesel Freak.
Rough Country Winch Plate from Diesel Freak
Kolpin Rhino Grip XL Gun Rack to mount to the Rear Bulk Head, Ordered from Diesel Freak
I have Rocker Switch's on order for WIPERS, REAR FLOOD LIGHT, and INTERIOR LIGHTS from Rocker Switch Pro's.
I have an OEM Roxor Spare Tire Carrier on order from Mahindra
I also have a Spare Wheel on order from Mahindra.
Today I started my Turn Signal Project. I have both 2" LED Signal Lights installed in the Grill. I also have two 3/4" Round LED Turn Signals installed in the Fender Lips on each side. I drilled a 3/4" hole behind the 2" lights and installed Rubber Gromets for the wiring to go through. The Fender Light wiring was routed through the Fender Support Bracket. They should be protected pretty well in that location. I am waiting on the Truck Lite 900 Switch before going any further on the Turn Signal Wiring.
More to come if my post does not disappear again.
