    Did the 13wl tundra brake upgrade. Stops very well and after getting used to the change in pedal feel I'm very happy with it. Huge upgrade to counteract the added weight on the truck.

    They are just ebay 160w specials. They are listed as a spot beam but I would classify them as more of a mid spot pattern. Not as advertised but still pretty solid for the price. No complaints thus far.

    Finally got around to boxing in the rear frame. With the RTT and bike rack off the back I was getting some notable bed/frame flex and this definitely seemed to help. Mocked up Cross bar added in and I cut and welded the factory spare parts back in. I didn't want a swingout with the bike rack...

    Well... no fridge, no winch, no dual batteries or crazy electronics. Maybe call it the fully loaded base model expo rig :sombrero:

    We drove over to Bend bright and early Saturday morning to pick up our tent at CVT. I had dealt with them before when we got our awning and they continued to be extremely helpful and professional. They installed our Mt Shasta Standard Stargazer Summit on the bed rack and we were off to explore...

    Thanks! I still consider is pretty simple compared to some of the builds on here. Getting out and using it is the best part of building it. I'm not throwing time and money at it for instagram fame like seems to be the trend now days.. That makes me feel better. I have a brace across the...

    Small updates, nothing to exciting I'm sure! Mounted quick fists to hold the axe along the bedrail using the rack to bed mount hardware. Ended up being perfect height for the axe as the tip of the head touches the wheel well but has a rubber cover over it so it should be fine. I have a...
