Hello, looking at a 1982 300GD, 617 5cyl non turbo, 4spd. Really clean, about 130km / 80k miles. Found very minimal rust underneath, guy thought it was ex-military but I think it was just green in color, all civilian interior, 12v. 2 sets of 5 tires, new KO2's on it now, Extra set is a bit more...

I have a '03 4 Runner sport 4.7 V8 AWD. I have only had it 2 years, found it with 37,500 but with commuting it has something like 112K on it now. Unfortunately yesterday I got in an accident, both air bags deployed, the radiator and front nose took the hit but the frame is unscathed. I will have...

Great news, glad you changed your mind and are moving forward. whats your plan?

Nice truck, glad to see it being put to use.

Nice WJ, I have a 2000 with a 4'' RC lift. I just ran across IRO website last week and ordered the steering brace to try and add a little stability to mine. I wheeled it more when it was stock and being in the Army its been on nearly every tank trail I have run across. I towed way more then I...

Ok I am home now from overseas with the Army and enjoying being back home despite being very busy with the new house, contractors, ect. I found a M101 trailer frame for about $60 for my base. I wont start to strip it down until later this winter when I get the time. It was modified slightly for...

I like that style of utility bed but I had not seen one like in a quarter ton configuration. It would be the perfect size if I can locate one. I was thinking about making the side box a pullout but that guy was lucky enough to find one already setup with a pull and is perfect for his kitchen...

This is my current setup with the M101 as my base.

Hello everyone, I have the itch to build and I wanted to of course tap into the vast knowledge we have here and to discuses opinions and ideas. I want to build a fiberglass utility bed into a expo camper. Now I have been reading on other projects and I ran across one mention of a fiberglass...

I do belong to MJC, I am trying to think back now and I think I remember your Jeep. I am absolutely horrible with names (Army name tags work great for me!!). When did you work at the Camp?

This is amazing mainly for the fast that I work in Reisterstown (Camp Frettered, Westminster, MD) and live in Frederick when not deployed to middle east. This is the exact trip I have been loosely planning for when I come home and have leave before reporting back to duty. I am eagerly watching...

Here is mine last summer. I built the trailer pretty quickly so we could use it on a cross country adventure before I left for Iraq. It is a M101A2 trailer with a commercial ARE utility cap. I found a adjustable ladder rack and cut some angle iron to make footings to attach it. A RTT is mounted...

Davis Mothen Air Base Arizona?

I just read through your blog, sounds great. The gf and I are very interested in your adventure and wish you all the luck for a safe trip for you and Nacho!

I was searching around hoping to find this subject covered somewhere and if I missed it somewhere please point me in the right direction. I am not sure when a south of the border expedition is in the works as for now we are looking North towards Alaska and visiting family there and along the...

That really looks good. I like what you have done. I was always annoyed at that back wheel well area as it likes to collect dirt and debris in the pocket by the door. Please post details and any issues you encountered just in case myself or someone else may follow your lead.

Sorry I have not updated. I am in Kansas City, Mo, currently as we stopped to let the little one play himself to sleep hopefully. I ended up leaving out Monday evening because well things just didn't pan out for the early departure but I got the rack on the trailer and the RTT mounted and its...

I haven't used mine yet but I will let you know when I get to the Tetons how it works out. It has many man great reviews from those who use it as a travel setup and those who use it for their off the grid homes and daily use. I was surprised i sells at Walmart's online store for a very nice...

Thank you all for your responses. Hilldweller, I will be taking this trailer everywhere I can think of but it will definitely see action next year when I return from the sandbox as I will have nearly 3 months of time to roam around and I plan on heading to Alaska via anywhere else I can stop...

I found someone who was shopping for a new car and put together a great way of testing this theory and results. I am thinking I might just go with pearl white or the sand color and call it a day. Visibility was another concern of mine, not only my ability to find my rig but in a rescue situation...
