Great update, wiring and hose routing is definitely time-consuming but super gratifying. That's some very clean looking install work you've done. Any concerns on the new bar hitting the frame under full compression?

Thanks for this, but don't let the looming deadline be misinterpreted as enthusiasm. Due date for kiddo #2 is 1 week from today, I'm just simply running out of time! Do it! a 4 link would be a fun little project on your set up. I have the special tool but lacked the mechanical ability to move...

Today didn't start off in my favour, while attempting to remove the long side shaft the entire outer axle bell came off. It just jumped the clip, no damage done, but this made getting the remaining piece out a little more challenging. I first tried with a strap wrapped around the stub and a...

Another day and some more progress, Decided I didn't like the upper limit strap mount, so I cut the one off and used these adjustable TMR mounts. Next up was routing the brake and abs lines, made a couple of tabs and found a really clean route. At full droop - Full lock to passenger. Full...

This thing is still alive. I did a little maintenance on it over the summer, Split the t-case and fixed the leak once and for all Next up, I messed with the sway bar again a bit. Cut down these links as they were about 2.5" too long. After that, I widened the front bar. I have very little...

This weekend it's finally time to completely button up the front end of this thing. Started by blowing it all back apart. Setting my bumps so they max out 1/4" before the shocks Made up this little bracket that will sandwich the limit strap while also acting as a mount for the sway bar...

^ Thanks, that one has been on my radar for a minute now. Picked up these PPE fittings and replacement hose to address it, just waiting on the second hose to arrive. I've got a short list of modifications I plan to make the next time I drain the coolant, including this L5P oil cooler. Got a...

Definitely a head scratcher, way to much time reading forum posts that led to dead ends. Thankfully there is a fairly active GM SAS group and a few super helpful guys on it. Still picking away at small projects, street legal here requires mud flaps on the rear. Picked up these super thick tandem...

^ Thanks for the good words guys. It's kind of fun to look back at this thing from 6 months ago with plywood fenders I screwed into place to where it's at now. Thanks for this. I appreciate the words of encouragement. Glad I didn't disappoint. Hope the camper lives up to this expectation...

Thanks for all the good words above, it's been a grind for nearly 6 months and it's definitely super rewarding to see it all start to materialize. Still lots to do though. Thanks for this. There was 2 goals with the deck, make sure it doesn't look like the municipal truck flat decks you see...

Continued on the passenger side today: Big booty, looking forward to getting a nice reverse light and spare tire set up completed to finish this out. This is definitely a milestone, first real miles on the swap after a 6-month grind. Really stoked on how the deck came out. From an idea in...

Such a rad build, absolutely love the attention to detail and photography. Keep up the great work!

Thank you, but don't let the pictures fool you, it's more about being cheap and stubborn than talent... Time is ticking, baby is due in a month... It never feels like I get enough done in a day right now. Thanks for the encouragement though. Thanks, definitely bolting these, not welding...

^ She knows, I'm just not sure if I'm that committed yet. I did start eyeing up some flat tow packages at the junk yard the other day. Thanks, happy with how they turned out, great product. I have a pair of the dome lights in my other camper. They are awesome. I wish they sold the interior ones...

Thanks, I just can't wait to take it out in the bush and see how it rides. It should be greatly improved over the stock set up. Thanks for this, hope the final product doesn't dissapoint. Can't wait to get started on the camper. Maybe some 35's and a 3 link in the front? The wife and I tossed...
