My sister and brother in law are selling their suburban. It's a sweet square body setup, 3.73 1 ton axles, banks turbo kit. They put all new AC in from the front to back. It would make a great base for a fuel efficient expo rig. The amount of new part that they put in it are more then they are...

How have the rear brakes been working for you? Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

There is a steel soldiers forum where the person shows stripping the inside of the walls removing the aluminum and insulation. I opted to keep the aluminum because I've seen an RV catch fire. It would show a greater detail, but if memory serves me right when I was messing around with the walls...

I have thought about that as well. I ended up putting the largest boat hatch that I could find as middle ground. I would have done two less expensive ones looking back on it now. So far we've been completely sealed from the elements and hopefully won't leak providing the good bead of 3m 5200...

I'm on the same boat. I found a used banks kit for like 400$ without exhaust, but I'm going to just buy the new one after hearing some horror stories... When you lift it you will have to tweak the stock exhaust anyways so what better time than to install the turbo! I have to redo my battery...

I finally made it home to Montana for a bit. I wasn't able to get any work done on my truck which made me feel a bit sad. I had a have dozen trees to cut down that were at risk of falling onto the fence between the neighbors and our place. So I spent days sawing up wood vs getting to play with...

I am always worried about rodent problems too. When I bought my property and shop out in the country the mice were everywhere before I cleaned house. I ended up putting this copper mesh between the outside tin and sill plate on the concrete, then rodent foam to seal everything else on my shop...

I'm thinking a set of Hutchinson border patrol wheels would be a good addition ;)!

Since it has been -20 deg ******** here in Saskatoon I've been doing some designing and planning for some of the projects I want to build for the old truck. One thing I did and completely forgot to show was a storage system that I build in the back. Before Jess and I were heading to Alaska we bolted...

Nice rig! I love the M1010. They are brutes and dogs love them! It must be the ability to go back and forth into the back from the cab. I am excited to see what you do in the box. It was tempting to tear everything out. I've left most of the stuff stock so it could sleep four people if needed...

Awesome rig!

It's been a long time since I've done any work or anything related to my poor truck but that changed this week. I've been searching for a long time and with the magic of the internet I stumbled across an M1101 trailer with the fiberglass top. I pulled the trigger and will be getting it next...

Good to see you found an M1010! I'm glad to see more M1010 stuff since I've had to park mine for the last 8 months :(. I'm sure you have some fun plans for it though! When I first bought mine and drove it home I made a detour through Moab and I was amazed how well it did off road stock. Then sad...

I feel sad that I have had to leave my truck parked in Montana since January. I ended meeting some fellow travelers here in Saskatoon that are building an expedition truck off of a F550. They are right down the street so it is pretty cool to get to see the progress and help out with a few odds...

Any plans on a heater replacement for the rear?
