This is more for my information than of interest to most people. Here are the inflation charts for the tires I am currently running. 395/85R20 ZXL Michelin. Interestingly I cannot find a table that goes down to my axle weights for normal running (road) but the off road and sand/mud pressures are...
Always start with the simple, obvious and cheap fixes before going to the obscure, complex and expensive solutions (usually sourced from the Internet) [emoji1]
A must for anyone wanting to do the YouTube/Instagram thing. Imagine combining Schoolie, Overlanding and Vanlife. [emoji1]
But seriously to find the 4WD parts under this price would be near impossible...
Oil leak from the dipstick is a distinct possibility. There is a fix for it without removing the pan but it’s expensive.

I use a bidet/shower valve to bypass the initial water back to the tank. Just run it until the valve gets warm and then switch it back to shower heads. Amazon about $12.

I cannot help with the import. But I can offer some advice on the 2H. Be prepared to be the most constipated vehicle in Colorado. You will never pass anything. Only thing slower was a 4cylinder diesel hilux with the mining rollcage.
I used to run a fleet of Toyota tray backs with the 2H. Never...
I suggest you go for it. The presentation is just talking about something you know all about. (The good and the bad). And a truck with the quality of yours is a great foil for the Earth Roamers and other mega dollar rigs. Be prepared to spend a lot of time talking to mostly great people. Also be...
Have you considered a full airride system rather than the helpers. Leave a couple of spring leaves in place to center the axle and use either coils or air springs to provide the suspension.
I have a hybrid system on one of my land cruisers in Australia that is basically a spring conversion...
I use ShockStraps and they seem to work well (never lost a bike or the sidecar). The bike moves around a bit on the suspension but nothing crazy.

I did look at using the foot pegs as anchor points but having to have multiple different configurations due to different...
You know those days when you say to yourself "Oh shizt, why do I do that". Well I am having one of those days. Just for a bit of background this truck has 840w of solar running through a Midnite Classic 150. Which some numb nutz decided would be better off located inside the living area than...
Add one of these and you will be set.

Most over the road trucks with dual tanks have them connected together and you pull from both at the same time. Helps balance things (100 gallons of diesel is 800lbs) and also stops the numb nuts who used to drive our trucks from running out of fuel when they forget to swap the tanks over...
