Great build, love the base layout of that camper. I may have missed it, what's the total vehicle length with camper?

Awesome, what a great start. Subscribed. In addition to how reliable these can be, you've got to love how cheap they are to maintain. You're kids going to get one hell of a first truck to enjoy that also comes with a great story. Looking forward to watching this progress. What are the vehicles...

No issues with the transfer case at all. These little NP207's can handle a lot more than what I'm throwing at it. The only thing I may add in the future is a SYE to the rear. The SAS has been great, wish I did it 5 years prior. We can absolutely fly down bush roads and it just soaks it up. I...

I should add everything is hooked up and functional now, High idle, reverse, puddle & forward lights, compressor, both kill switches, idash gauges, sotf relocation, and I've prewired for the 3 remaining blank switch locations. The only thing remaining is running main power wires for the winches...

^ that's exactly the scenario I need to avoid haha. The older I get, I'm becoming less risk tolerant. It's been nearly a month, and I haven't done much... Here's the little bit I've completed. Finished off the front lights, had to profile the cradle a bit more to get them position the way I...

Man, what a saga of breakdowns and adventures. Love these posts, and the fact you aren't losing faith in your truck. Keep it up!

thanks for this, I'm just a regular joe burning stuff together in my garage, but I appreciate the good words. Man truer words were never spoken. We were lucky enough to welcome our 2nd son into this world about a week ago and it's definitely got much busier! I'm off work for a month with the...

Thanks for this, we are both really quite happy to bringing our second son into the world in the next few days. I'm the furthest thing from a perfectionist, this truck is a proper 20 footer, so don't give me too much credit. My greatest strength is I'm overly ambitious, get so committed into a...

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...
