continued... post 5 That gen set and the other unused maintenance truck items went up on steelsoldiers.com for free. I figured that if anyone wanted this stuff, it would be a military vehicle enthusiast. Sure enough I got an inquiry and the gentlement even offered to trade! He asked what I...

continued... post 4 All this work and not enough fun. So I took it out for a little off road testing. Seems to flex well enough for my needs. And it can drive up anything I would want to in 4 LO, especially with that low gearing. With these nice big tires, I had no way of carrying a spare. 37...

continued... post 3 Since I was building this for driving to and staying in the baja desert, I knew I wanted to carry some water on board. Emboldened by not completely screwing up either the tack welds on the fenders or the makeshift ladder, I decided to make a mounting bracket for a water...

continued... post 2 It's not worth much more than a mention, but I chopped up and welded a piece of scrap fencing and made a little ladder for getting to the roof. And of course I took some breaks to go camp with the kids. I hadn't even touched the camper conversion but who cares - lockdown...

Hello all. I've been reading EXPO for a few years now and gleaning tons of great information. Thanks to all for sharing. This is my baja rig and I've been working on it, camping out of it, and building some basic mechanical knowledge for just under a year and a half. I know this because I...

I did see that and shared it with my fabricator buddy. Very promising how little flex that person on YouTube was finding with their bed, but it didn’t appear that he had flexed it much. I’ve already bought a Mojave gladiator and will likely already have something in place before someone ever...

I’m bringing an old thread back to life because I really want someone to make a camper for the gladiator with a pass through from the cabin. A very smart fabricator/builder friend planted the idea in my head and it seems like it could be done. Yeah the bed moves independently on a truck, but...

Not mine. I saw this today while looking for different parts for my DIY pop top project and was sure someone here would be interested. I have no knowledge of this vehicle or the seller. Just passing along a link...

Have you progressed any further with being able to produce these? Add me to the interested list.

I’m debating this exact thing right now with my m1031. I have a hairbrained idea to do a hard sided cabover pop up, but the seed that started that idea was seeing an inventive pop up idea on this forum. Somewhere in here someone cut the bottom out of a hard shell rtt and attached it to a...

I think I’m going to do this on my truck. I’ve been dreaming of a DIY pop up ever since I got rid of my westy. I won’t miss the frequent mechanical failures of the air cooled VW but do miss the pop up. It’s still a recent mod, but had anything come up since install that you would have done...

Not an unreasonable price for an under 30k vehicle with that drivetrain and a diesel.

I have this same truck and have been building it out all year. If anyone is interested, here is some info (provided it’s still stock) 6.2l non turbo diesel Th400 transmission no OD NP 205 transfer case 4.56 gears, Dana 60 kingpin front and 14b ff rear with Detroit locker It’s very slow in...

Midway through building my m1031. I hope to put together a build thread when it’s done.

I'm looking for a diesel version of this truck and ran across this. With the 4x4, winch and enclosed high top camper it looks like it could be a cool platform for a build! https://www.ebay.com/itm/133350028266 Bid at 5k located in CT, pickup only Not mine
