    I loved watching the build up of this rig and your travels with it (all on YouTube). I LOVED the Iceland series! Wishing you the very best on getting this sold and building whatever the next rig is.

    Build thread: "Dave, The Granite Tortoise," 2011 Chevy Express 2500 Quigley 4x4

    Congrats on the new rig. We picked up our 2013 GMC Savana back in March. It has an Advanced 4x4 conversion (similar to Quigley) and have been starting my build. Recently had the high top installed and it's a total game changer. Still getting used to not having to stay hunched over when...

    2013 GMC Savana 3500 Overland Build

    Had a little time this past Saturday to work on a couple projects. Pulled the grill and installed my Garmin camera that will connect to my Overlander GPS. This way I can have some front views, since my wife is not a fan of spotting. Hopefully this will help. I mocked up a bracket to hold my...

    Fuel Tanks and Jerry Cans relating to Fuel Range

    In my opinion, since you are almost doubling the stock tank with the 155L upgrade, it would be like adding almost 4 extra fuel cans to your rig. If you have been okay with 2 extra fuel cans, you're almost doubling that. Unless you have found that having the 80L + the extra 40L hasn't been...

    How To Make Side FLARES For A VAN? Anyone Build Their Own?

    The idea of a mold is great, if you want to make more than one set, otherwise it seems like a lot of extra work. The foam/glass seems like a good idea, as you'll get the strength of glass with the insulation of foam. Downside is it's bulkier since you have the thickness of the foam. I would...

    Hydronic Radiant Floor Heat Reviews and Suggestions

    You might be better off asking in the Van area of the forum, since it is more likely folks have used them in vans. https://forum.expeditionportal.com/forums/4wd-and-2wd-camper-vans-a-k-a-vanlife.58/

    The Wanderers build

    Yeah, I have seen that before but I haven't tested it with mine. I have heard that you should always continue to use the same tape measure for your project and not switched between them, for this very reason. Think I am going to have to test mine now... :ROFLMAO:

    coil-over springs versus leaf springs on E350 camper

    Also you forgot the torsion bar front suspension. Our Advanced 4x4 GMC van has this (basically from a 1 ton truck parts but it's a custom torsion bar crossmember by them). Even as a 1 ton van, empty, this thing actually rides great. Each setup has pros and cons.
