    UAV-TD (Urban Assualt Vehicle - tear drop) build

    The cabinets look good. If it makes you feel better, we had a time (galley leak we couldn't seem to stop) that made us want to burn ours too. But we didn't. I am really glad we didn't. Don't burn yours, either. It will get better.

    120V in a Trailer, Should I?

    Everything electrical in our trailer is 12v (fridge, lights, TV/DVD, party lights and 8 12v outlets), everything electrical in our previous years camping was 12 volt. I carry an inverter in the truck and have never used it. We did plan and even began to run the wires for a couple of 110...

    100,000 miles

    Yes, its a direct bolt-in if you have the Jeep.....but they sell brackets for various other makes and models. I cruised through Corbeaus site while shopping, found the style and colors I wanted then searched for that seat until I found the cheapest way to get it. The added insulation helped a...

    100,000 miles

    The floor itself was clean, and quickly ready for some attention We installed a small layer of ThermoTec insulation/sound deadener over the bare metal portions Then came the flooring. The one item I wanted from day one purchasing this truck was a vinyl or rubber floor. No Way Jose. An...

    100,000 miles

    As we've been slowly nearing the 200,000 mile milestone on the truck, we've been talking about improvements "necessary" for its continued service. A few thousand miles ago, I noticed the truck was listing......well, it wasn't; rather, I was listing. Maybe I've gained weight on my left side...

    ExpoScout's 03 Tundra

    On road the 285s handle better on dry roads ( try to slalom in a pickup truck), but I don't notice a definitive difference offroad. I really don't believe there is enough width difference to really matter on a fullsize truck.

    ExpoScout's 03 Tundra

    This is from a PM I received from ExpoScout and felt it was pertinent to the thread. Remember any information is my opinion formed from my experience. YMMV. There is a lot of info out there, some of it I agree with, some I'm leary of. I know what has worked for me, and it has worked...

    Extreme 4x4 builds an Expedition Tacoma

    Useless like what? A solid axle swap? A refrigerator? A snorkel? Heck, I don't even rock crawl and I'd build the Tundra like Tango's truck if I had the cash....

    ExpoScout's 03 Tundra

    This is what I had to do. The battery fits mostly in the tray, but the holdown had to be modified slightly. The hood brace had to be dented above the negative post, a few decent pounds with a ball peen did the trick. I think the DCs have a little more forgiveness in this area. They are a...

    ExpoScout's 03 Tundra

    Not a Diehard but I have a group 31 deep cycle. It takes some, um, modifications. A Ball Peen hammer has the right shape to dent the underhood bracing to get the posts to not touch metal......very important to get that bit right. I dented the braces, used some modeling clay on the posts and...

    Extreme 4x4 builds an Expedition Tacoma

    You know, I watched the show upon seeing the link on this thread. They added the SAS, then I read this: I instantly thought of this truck! I see it around town sometimes.....the driver sits so high I think he sees over all the other trucks on the road, so he never waves back..... Oh, Tim...
