    2002 Chevy short bus build

    So many questions... Are you worried about maxing your GVWR? How much does it weigh after everything you have done? What was your process for skinning the Windows?

    Suspension Lift Options 2000 Chevy 3500 8-lug

    I have gone back and forth on the rear lift an if I decide on lifting it would be via a more substantial custom leaf pack, not blocks. It has blocks currently (appear stock) and it is not a pleasant experience. Air bags are likely happening this fall since we can install them anywhere without...

    Four Wheel Camper Fleet flatbed (2013) on TRD Offroad Tacoma (2015)- 47500

    Seems like the GVW would be a real concern on this rig. Once you add water, fuel and gear, might be a bit chunky.

    Suspension Lift Options 2000 Chevy 3500 8-lug

    Are you suggesting that a 2-in lift above stock is going to create a noticeable sail effect beyond what it does right now? We have since ditched the boats up top so it's less sail like. My problems arise in the pot holes and undulating road where the front end dives then the rear end sways when...

    For the fast lane Overlander

    We saw one in New Brunswick and I am not impressed with my walk around. Not sure what the extra money is paying for.

    1977 Dodge Xplorer 307 Xtrava Cummins 4x4

    I don' think it's worth 35k or even 15k, but it sure is cool. Which means someone will likely buy it!

    Any drone fans around here? Looking for a good source for a 'landing pad' decal

    We launch/land our mavic pro from the roof of our 4runner all the time. I don't know if a landing pad is required. The sell movable landing pads that you could just throw up there while using and stow somewhere in the rig.

    Chevrolet Express / GMC Savana RWD Van Info thread (All years / 1500, 2500, 3500)

    On our 2000 Chevy 3500 cutaway, is there an off the shelf leaf spring option preferably with 8+ leaves to handle our weight (9500 lbs)? Or am I stuck with getting a custom pack made? Small lift is prefered. I am assuming stock height springs will lift it a fair bit as it is sagging a bit in the...

    Inflatable Stand Up Paddleboard for Long Term Travel

    We went with a PEAK SUP on Amazon.Traveling full-time, Amazon purchases are just easier. I know that it's a Chinese board and it will likely fail at some point, but as a test to see if we like the sport it should work just fine. We would love to drop $2600 on two new boards, but its simply not...

    Inflatable Stand Up Paddleboard for Long Term Travel

    To wrap this thread up, we ended up purchasing a mid-level, drop stitched iSUP and are storing it on the roof. So far it has performed well on flat and choppy water and we will likely be adding another to paddle at the same time.

    Suspension Lift Options 2000 Chevy 3500 8-lug

    That's what we are leaning to as well. We replaced the tired old leaf pack on our 4Runner last winter and the 2" lift springs added something closer to 5"!?

    Suspension Lift Options 2000 Chevy 3500 8-lug

    Jeremy basically said he couldn't help me without spending a ton of cash and converting everything to 2003+ which is half-way to a 4x4 SAS, and is too much money to spend on this rig. He also told me he doesn't have shocks that will work for my rig. Confirmed with FOX HQ that they don't have...

    FS: Canon 60D DSLR Camera + 2 lenses + TONS of extras. $550 inc. shipping

    As a free bump, I’m curious as to how big you are printing that 18MP doesn’t get it done? I’ve seen nat geo billboards with an 8MP 30D. GLWS, this cam has definitely seen some stuff.

    FM-65G Whynter 65 Quart Portable Fridge/ Freezer SOLD!

    No affiliation to the seller, but we have used this exact model of fridge full-time for almost two years and it hasn't failed us yet. It has been to 30 states and 3 countries in 2 vehicles and it's still rocking. It's easy on the battery bank, fairly quiet and keeps our beer and food really...

    1995 TIGER CX VAN PRO. $6K

    That's not going to last long even with no interior shots. It's worth it if everything is mechanically sound. If I were stationary, it would be mine!
