Since the pallet came in, and i now have my compressor, took the afternoon to put it in.
Started with stripping down the harness to only what I need. Using the PA system aux switch to trigger the relay, so only needed that wire hooked up to something (other than the power and negative) So...
Pallet arrived today!
Correct winch is on the way, they sent steel instead of synthetic. All good, dont need it for a few weeks anyways

Picked up the audio today, components front and rear and a killer amp. Got a great deal on it all, so worth it
Also picked up a new box to make it easier to get tools to the van, and keep from just dropping it all on a table...
Its a 2k or so affair to redo the layout. I did make a little money, but its easier to redo it than take it all out, replace stuff with holes in it, and redo it.
We are designing and building a three tank water system to carry about 50 gallons of water when all three are linked. Spare tire is one of the tanks.
All will be from stainless and available in a month or so.
That being said, I want to keep water out of the interior on this build to have...

So, changes from last one:
Queen bed instead of Full. Still the same layout, but wider
Front will only have a winch and hitch mount
Spare tire mounted to the door (rear bumper is just too killer to the departure angle)

This year, I decided to hit up the Smokey Mountain Overland Rally, because awesome people really. Rain kinda screwed up the drive up and delayed me a bit, so I wasn't able to go as far west as I wanted, to see some family, due to time constraints. But that didn't kill all they day. Found...
I actually like this thing, but we decided after a dozen or so nights, we want a different layout. It is actually easier and faster for me to just do a full build again and how i want, instead of removing, replacing paneling with mount holes in it, then rebuilding everything in the layout i...
Soooooooo, actually made the decision to sell this one, build another one with a differnet floor plan and style. 150lbs of dogs need a queen bed. Easier to do a quick rebuild than strip everything out, redo the wood (holes from mounting things) and then rebuild it all how I want.
Will be...
