Sounds like a good excuse to get out more and have a reason to use your 14 bucks a month. Often I’ll use the inReach (even if I do have a little service) to let my wife know where I’m at. Been in bad situations both with and without. I’ll continue to keep mine activated year round.

I did. Used 1” VHB tape.

Decided to address tailgate sealing. Basically built a frame out of angle aluminum and installed weather stripping. Also doubled up the factory door seals. I’m sure in most places the factory stuff is sufficient. But with the bed rug, and moving back to a very very rainy place it needed beefing...

@WarrZone14 This the outside width of my camper with pic of how it fits against the edge.

I’ve seen you driving around in the neighborhood. Really cool and well built Jeep. Good luck w the sale!

@VernonBC Slide in campers of any size blow through our payload. hence why we got the OVRLND. Cassette toilet and a hot water source wouldn’t be difficult in here though, plenty of Toyota guys do it and they have probably 2/3 the bed volume we do.

I would recommend the cognito leveling kit. You’ll get clearance to run a larger tire as well as maintain wheel travel/ride quality vs cranking the t bars.

Yeah I knew that going in. Not quite ready to commit to a forced air setup (although I have engineered some space for one).

Lessons learned from the trip. 1: Insulation very helpful. Need to complete and cover it. This will reduce/eliminate the thermal bridging going on. 2: Wave 3 heater was really struggling in the teens at altitude. It still kept the inside considerably warmer than outside, so overall happy with...

Had an awesome trip over to eastern Sierra to fish. First night On the East Walker temps were down in the teens. Insulation and heater definitely made it more live able. Wouldn’t say it was warm inside, but definitely warmer than outside! After that night headed to Bishop and had some luck on...

Awesome, thank you! Looks like my plan will work.

I run replaceable blade knives. If he’s a western style backpack hunter he’s likely weight and volume conscious in his gear. Used a havalon for years, and recently went to a Tyto. Very happy with the upgrade.

@Mnbogboy Interesting. I’ve only hunted the west. Figured with CWD spreading they’d want more people to leave the inedible stuff in the woods. Congrats on the hip! My dad just got his done and he’s leaps and bounds better. Hopefully he’ll be accompanying me on my hiking/fishing adventures again.

Lots of progress over the last week. Insulation is completed for now. A few blocks up top are left open, pending whether I commit to solar or not. Wave 3 heater installed. Smoke/fire detector and CO. Fire extinguisher is gonna just hang out un-mounted for now. Got a couple tie downs installed as...

Great deer! Gotta learn how to break em down with the gutless method. They take up a whole lot less room that way.

Does anyone have dimensions of the lagun table leg that attaches to the mount? Specifically when it is attached to the mount, how for out does it go from the mounting surface? Trying to see if it will fit in this area.

Digging into old wood shop skills. Could only source 3/4” ply. Need 1” to get flush with the hinges I chose. So laminating 1/4” strips around edges.

Got my extrusions in today. Top will be a hinged sheet of birch. 1/4” ply will close off the batt compartment.

@MANUCHAO Thank you. That’s the truth. Zeke has almost as many miles in the truck as the truck has. Cross country, to and from AK, up and down the west coast many many times. Headed to Eastern sierras next week and knew it was likely his last big trip. Didn’t quite make it though...
