    Pics of your VAN! Post up!

    Welcome! Been following you for years over on GJ. Excited to see how this develops. MG is a good friend, so I am a bit biased, but he's really dialing in his product. Great choice! Brad

    1988 Pickup SR5 in Washington

    No magic. Your rear axle was crooked on the leaf springs with the right wheel (-0.9mm out) slightly behind the left wheel (1.6mm in). Just had to loosen some bolts and shift things around a bit until they got similar readings. In this case 1.2mm evened things out pretty well. Ever see a pickup...

    E350 Gray Vhale Build Thread

    Start a trip fund. $20 a week goes a long way toward offsetting gas in the future for trips. So much cheaper than a new car payment. Ok. Gotta go. Shopping for new cars. Later! J/k... ;)

    E350 Gray Vhale Build Thread

    Sit down and look at your fuel costs per year. Then figure out what the fuel savings would be on a new more efficient vehicle. Tacomas are notoriously disappointing. Add in the cost of any financing and increased insurance premiums. I bet your van, paid off in a year not to mention, will cost...

    Fred the Van. The More We Explore's Adventure Van Build Thread

    Based on my experience with my Tacoma, if I could only use ONE product, I would go with the self adhesive Ensolite. It will dampen resonant frequencies pretty well on its own, while still absorbing road noise. My install starts on this page...

    That's a good list! Can I make one suggestion tho? Stay away from the asphalt based peel and seal or sound deadener products. The way you use your van and the warm environments you are in will have that stuff all stinky and gooey in no time. Also, the asphalt based adhesives don't do well...

    I think your lines are off. Here's the orientation on VANdiana. Note where the lines are in relation to the ribs on the floor above.

    Captain Texas Anvil JKU build

    Be careful stepping out when wearing shorts! Like you, I thought grip tape on sliders was a good idea, but the first time I slide out wearing shorts left a fair amount of skin from my hamstring on said tape... Looks good though!

    Barn Door for JK factory hardtops

    Hard to tell online, but that looks more like Ranger Green than OD Green. RG, btw, is preferred nowadays in the tactical community.
