I use sleeper sofa's in all mine so I can still carry a full complement of people safely (Same seat belt points etc). I have had a few people in the back when going over some interesting roads and they found it comfortable. Enough that my grand daughter wanted to travel back there all the time...

Since I carry 5 MSI/Septre 20 liter water cans I just use those when the ground is too rocky, too sandy or too muddy. Never had a problem yet except when we stay for a while and use up all the water :). But I do also carry a few aluminum blocks to use as jacking pads. It would be easy to put a...

Do you have a push button gear selector. When it displays it should show a 5 or a 6. That tells you what gears they have configured. I am not familiar with the 2000 series but I think they were always a 6 speed that could be limited to 5 speeds in the calibration. There are shops around that can...

OK I found the tools to use. These ones And you can have a sideline job checking motorcycle rims for cracks.

Just as another thought. My ambo module on the Landcruiser in Australia is mounted with urethane isolator son both sides of the chassis mount. You could take this to another level and make it a 3 layer isolator. Bolt, big arsed washer, urethane,ambo mount, urethane,chassis mount, urethane, big...

Looks like a fun project. Did you get a 5 or 6 speed Allison?

You could use a rotary type door handle so that the pins are in the top/bottom when twisted one way and on the sides when twisted the other way. It would need to be down low and over the side where the door will hinge. Something like this...

I am with Jack on this although I may of used different wording [emoji848]. From my 20000' internet viewpoint I get the feeling that your Unimog experience may be biasing your judgement towards allowing for a level of frame flexibility you have experience with. So here are a couple of...

OK I put this rig up for the Cool Rides contest at expo west. It will be interesting to see how it rates against some incredible vehicles. Check it out HERE

You could also pull the cabinet above the seat (passengers side) and get the spacing from there. Its only held in with a bunch of screws and some silicon.

I am going to go against the flow here and suggest you may not need the flexibility in the mounts that you think you do. I have had my rig crossed up numerous times (no rock crawling though) and it has zero articulation. What I have noticed is that while there may of been enough flex in the...

Yeah that may not be the best ideal. I don't seem to work well when I have an oh so helpful audience watching over my shoulder and providing Monday morning quarterback type tips. I have been known to run a less than helpful spectator out of the shop at the end of a wrench (and it was his truck).

Run the AC for a while on full bore and use your infrared thermometer. No idea if it would actually work (it should) but sure sounds like a highly technical solution to a simple problem that Pat already solved. :)

Nothing like a hard deadline to to focus your time.

The spout sits in the middle of the container so getting the last 1-2 of the water out involves a balancing act. Every time we sealed ours then dropped a thousand foot or so in elevation they leaked. But they do make good dry goods containers. We use them for rice, pasta and flour. I like the...

These are a pain in the butt. They leak and getting the water out the spout takes a contortionist body.

Only used once in sand. Worked well but it is never going to work for my new truck. $175 pickup in Phoenix or I will deliver to Expo but only if paid in full first.

Ex military torque multiplier 3/4 drive output using a 3/8 drive input. Seriously heavy duty. It has a built in torque gauge but I am not sure how accurate it is. $120 and pickup in Phoenix or delivery to Expo only if paid for in advance.
