    GXV Patagonia on the Kenworth K370 chassis

    Thank you Daurie for your feedback. Anxious to discover more details about the 4x4 conversion. Manually locking hubs...check. Will you have a switch on the dash or a lever selector for choosing 4 wd high and/or low range? Or is this system providing only 4 high? Did you opt for the factory...

    Protecting the rear drums with SRW

    This brings to mind the question of why the Mitsubishi FG 4x4 uses 4 wheel drum brakes while the FE 2wd uses discs. Was this done intentionally for better off road use or was it simply a matter of convenience of utilizing that particular axle configuration? Are drum brakes better for off road...

    EarthCruiser Overland Vehicles

    Interior shots of the upcoming ECFX would be appreciated as they become available. Also, does EC offer a toilet option other than the standard cassette? If not, could this be modified by the end user (no pun intended) :ylsmoke:

    Earthcruiser vs ATW

    Well said, I have tried for hours to compare the two companies spec sheets and there really is no current 'standard vehicle' offering from either to compare at this time. There are, however, certain stand-alone features that one could point to like the toilet (EC = cassette only vs. ATW U.S...

    Earthcruiser vs ATW

    Agree. However, a side by side comparison is possible from a specifications point of view and would be of interest to the community.

    Isuzu NPR HD Truck Camper Build

    Hi John, You mentioned that the MadAss 125 or the TW 200 would be ideal expedition rig 'tenders' and I agree. Has anyone come up with a good way to mount/carry those on the US version of the Global Warrior? Thanks, Dean

    New to me, Greene fuso mods

    It sounds like most are in agreement with the benefits of covering as much of the interior as possible with Dynamat and/or Hushmat type material. Has anyone ever applied some sort of undercoating to the exposed metal areas seen in the fender wells when the FG cab is lifted? These areas look...

    Nice shot. Did the application block the all important water drains shown along the base of the door?

    Nice job John. The great work done by members really does inspire us all. Lots of work around dash area but agree that damping sound, resisting heat transfer, etc worth doing. Regards, Dean

    New Woelcke Fuso 4x4 Expedition vehicle "Autark"

    Nice. This is the Host edition. Which gallery would exhibit the Host model with the entry door mounted on the passenger side near the stern? Thanks.

    New Woelcke Fuso 4x4 Expedition vehicle "Autark"

    Thanks. Beautiful gallery. But that looks like the 'hard panel' option that replaces the standard soft sides. I was referring to a full hard body that would incorporate upper cabinets, full height walls for the bath area, etc. Just like the Woelcke Explorer's profile. The 'hard side' option...
