I was just thinking about you the other day and whether you got that bumper installed! Haha!

Well, the truck has been sold. We had a good run, but I just didn't need 3 vehicles in my life, especially when the Rover got the least amount of attention. Reflecting back on this whole process, I think the Rover was my favorite truck to work on. Overall, it's very accessible and easy to...

Another long gap between posts. It's safe to say this build is essentially over due to time constraints and other projects. I have really struggled with deciding whether to sell this truck, but I think the time has come to move on. It's not that I have to sell it, nor do I want to, but it's just...

The bar is back and it's looking better than ever. I cannot wait to get this thing on the truck. Now if I could only find a rear Safari Gard bumper... For those of you in the market, I have my RTE Slimline front bumper for sale. Make me an offer!

Been a year, but just checking to see if this sold? If not, let me know.

It's been another long gap, but the Rover is still going strong! Updating today to let you all know about a new haul I managed to snag over the weekend after an 8 hour round trip to the central coast and back... Safari Gard front bumper (first version) Mantec snorkel Badland winch Voodoo rope...

Awesome build. Question on the reg: is it CARB legal or do you just have a valid registration?

Finally got the truck out to Anza Borrego this weekend and it performed beautifully. Every time I wheel with it I am reminded at just how much I love this project. Truth be told, I have been thinking about selling. I’ve got 3 trucks now, and between the Cruiser and Grenadier, the Rover no...

Almost there! MLV is in! I liked this product (Soundsulate). It was easy to work with and made in the USA, which isn't always an indicator of quality, but in this case it was. How much of a difference it actually makes, not sure yet... The rear trim is also finally back in place. I still need...

Productive weekend! Finally got around to laying the butyl vibration dampener material in the front and back. Next step is closed cell foam and then mass loaded vinyl.

I know these updates are becoming few and far between. The Rover is still running well, but im only driving it once a week now that the Grenadier has arrived. And with the baby due any day now, there is really no time to work on it. However... I've been pestering this person on Facebook...

Wow! That is a hell of a build! How long did it take you to drop that engine in there? What transmission are you running?

Well, Ol Blue has finally moved on to the junkyard. Stripped it for all of the best parts and sold it off for $500, which is pretty great given I spent only $1,000 to get it. With that said, the final part I pulled was the practically new ARB front bumper with 2x Hella lights. This is now...

Nice one! I thought about putting it there, but I dont like having something so close to my knee! Agreed on the Disco community. Especially for D1, it's dead quiet. Nobody really talks about them and for accessories, almost nobody is willing to spend a fair price for product. Case in point, I...

Still here, but spending a lot less time with the Rover these days. I've got a baby on the way and now that the Land Cruiser is back in my hands, most of my little free time has been spent working on that. However, I did manage to get some small things sorted on the vehicle in the past few...
