Nice work. Looking very good! Woodwork looks top notch. We had been waiting for an update.

So more progress the shower is all completed and the fixtures are in as well as the nautilus sliding shower door IMG_5326.jpeg
Sorry I know that isn’t the best picture but you get the idea for now. Also did a custom stainless steel shower pan as well as a teak shower mat. I also recently purchased a PCI radio intercom system with head sets for inside the cab, it was kind of loud in there, I’ve have since kill-matted the back wall as well as the roof so we will see how that makes a difference but I plan on doing the intercom system so you can talk to each other without yelling, it also plays music and does phone calls as well.
 
Thank you yes here are some updates the interior or cabin of the truck is finished. The interior height with the insulation in the ceiling and the floor came out to 6 foot. The exterior isn’t complete obviously but I did replace the original steel wheels with aluminum wheels and new front tires.

just a little update nothing crazy, ended up getting some hub caps for the front and rear wheels looks better now that everything is covered. Also bought a 270° awning mounted it up on the passenger side rear so it covers the whole passenger side and also the rear entry door. As well as got some Baja designs lights for the grille and front bumper since the headlights are so high I wanted to have some additional light lower also reuse the cutouts that were already in the grille. I also installed some rear lights for when I use the back up camera at night, it was nice that essentially all the corners were pre wired and switched so all I had t do was pick my lights and install them. I need to grab some pictures of the lights. I went with rigid 360 series 4” lights for both sides and the front upper lights. Then in the rear I did Baja designs s2 for the corner and ONX6 10” light bar in the center. Also we are currently in the process of repainting the truck back to the original green color since it was flaking off from where they removed the decals. I also got new lenses and bulbs for the rear scene lights.

Thanks for taking the pictures of all your progress. It looks freaking amazing! Good job. I have quite a few questions about the parts you used since I have many of the same needs for your twin. Keep it up and have fun!

No problem happy to do it. Let me know what questions you have. Also would love to see pictures of your rig.
 
Made a little toe kick panel for the back door out of some reused diamond plate from the demo. Also got one of my Molle panels mounted up to mount my bag that holds my hose and my water filter it tucks away right underneath my propane storage shelf when the door is closed.
