    Hella 4000: Free Form vs Euro Beam

    Thanks for the feedback. They are pretty deep. A few videos for anyone else searching; Driving/Euro vs Pencil; Driving/Euro vs Pencil vs others; Driving/Euro vs Cornering; After more research, looks like I might go with 700FF (if they fit on my application) since they're so dirt cheap...

    Hella 4000: Free Form vs Euro Beam

    Resurrecting an old post I happened to find via a Google search (I had forgotten I was looking at these long ago for my gray G-Wagen). Anyone recently running Hella Rallye 4000 (Euro H1/100W or Cornering H1/100W), or Rallye 4000FF (Driving H1/55W), or Rallye 3000 (Driving H1/55W)? If so, how...

    2021 Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) CAMP-HBE pop-up flatbed pickup camper (renamed the "Hudson Bay" for 2023 model year)

    I agree with you on height. I need to measure mine (will try tonight), but ideally I'd rather have shorter OAH than where I'm at, however the lack of setup with the Aterra is money; open the side door and you're in and cooking or grabbing something out of a drawer/cubby or hopping right into...

    2019 F350 6.2L 4WD build thread; HPI flatbed, ATO AterraXL composite camper, Carli/King, 37s, 4.88s, etc

    Hasn't gotten cold enough here yet. I think the coldest night thus far was in the low 40s, and that first night I forgot to turn the Truma heater on, whoops. I still need to measure OAH. I'm thinking 11'? An OEV-style flip-up-off-the-wall table was what I was originally thinking ATO would do...

    Good stuff. When is the HBE Shell coming available, or the HBE with the Aterra interior? ;)

    Shane has a long and helpful thread over on pointedthree. His build thread has led to a client having ordered a slew of WW bits; install will be around Dec this year or so. IIRC this will be the 3rd WW portal G in the USA, first G63 I believe.

    Yep, linked above to the Google spreadsheet for anyone else. I've already done the TPMS mod, just need to do the 37s mod now that I know the CEL may not actually stay on afterwards, thx!

    2019 F350 6.2L 4WD build thread; HPI flatbed, ATO AterraXL composite camper, Carli/King, 37s, 4.88s, etc

    Haven't used it yet (I want to modify the access to it; dinette table needs to swivel out of the way better and into the driver side dinette area, which means adding a spacer to the Lagun-camperwall mount), so I haven't had to get refills yet, although refills are on my list to procure. As I...

    Those weights are already included in my 10,850lbs. You might as well put my taco order in now... :LOL:

    Interesting to no CEL, great to hear! I guess I'll have mine Forscan'd again (already have some of the fun things done, thx to some of your suggestions), and see if I get a CEL or not. Can always revert eh?

    2020 Ford F250 on 37s - Expedition Truck Camper Build!

    Negative, haven't Forscan'd for 37" tires as I don't want a CEL perpetually on. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1649945-forscan-threads-and-resources-index.html Have you?

    Thank you sir. I did it all for you. Hahaha....not sure on the load limit on the Gladiator doors, but I'm pretty light. Nah, it goes next week to the fab shop for a custom adapter for my 4step Little Giant ladder/stairs setup. Will hang from the side of the flatbed deck or dog platform, have...

    mog said: looking very race-like. 45/55 weight split for a full-size truck camper under 12k....I'd say rubbin's racin' buddy ol' pal. Time to corner balance my F350 now...:cool:

    See above. Camper weighs in just a bit more than on the ATO site, with my options. Figure ~1750lbs max. I haven't heard about v2 camper ETA. Yeah, I'd rather have my windows raised a few inches (one of the v2 changes), but I'm just glad to have this setup together so that I can finally enjoy it...

    Hehe, it was fun meeting up with you so you could see it in the flesh Mark. Thx for lunch as well! I appreciate your kind words, especially from you who's had/have many awesome rigs. HPI definitely does gorgeous work. I am SO glad I stayed local and didn't go with the other option I was looking...

    Nice Smokey plate. :) Yeah, definitely need a bumper for protection. Who is going to fab for you? I'll chime in with my Morimoto XB LED experience; love them, very clean cutoff pattern, 5k lumens is just right and not too purple! I don't have any drive time on factory LED's or other brands...

    So...when he was building Adrift he thought he'd need the mini split a/c, but come to find out, it was way overkill even for Baja?

    2020 Ford F250 on 37s - Expedition Truck Camper Build!

    Definitely agree with Tow/Haul; downshifts very quickly when I need it to. On my setup (4.88s and 37"), I'm seeing; 6th gear is 2000rpm at 60mph 5th gear is 2500rpm at 60mph 4th gear is 3400rpm at 60mph Haven't checked 3rd gear at XXXXrpm at 60mph

    2021 Ford F250 Tremor Adventure Rig

    Bret, why not try fitting a 37" in the factory location first? I just did (used 37" ProComp M/T I traded for a few 6packs), and with the tire deflated, it barely fits and still sits at a nice departure angle--which is interesting as the diameter of the stock spare area is only ~33", so I had to...
