If safety is a concern first and foremost you should not buy an RHD in a LHD country? As for maneuvering, a properly set up 80 can easily outmaneuver a poorly set up 100 and vice-versa. In the end, don't expect any 7000lb+ 80 or 100 series to handle well under an emergency maneuver. Also...

Not sure if they will work with a factory set up. My rails bolt to the pinch weld. I wanted the steps with the best clearance and some protection was my goal. Most sliders reduce clearance by a min of 2" something I saw as a problem with the vehicle height.

The next few posts will show the modifications done to the four wheel camper for my needs. First up is a side access door.The main reason for the door is to eliminate the need to carry stuff up and down the stairs. Installation was straight forward the only mod was to add an aluminum header. I...

Looks like EZLite...

If you are limited to 7' will any 3/4 - 1 ton fit alone?

This is a proven set up and heavy duty used to access composite body Land Cruiser. https://www.myteeproducts.com/pull-out-trailer-step-ladder.html

Have you considered an engine coolant heat exchanger with electric back up. I have found it very nice to have hot water just by driving and Elgena makes one. I wanted something smaller than the Elgena and something I have quick access in the USA to all the parts if needed. My 1gal 12volt 200...

Truth be a Troopy is a landscaping truck everywhere else in the world but the USA. As for travel in no way does an 80 and Troopy compare in ride or comfort.

What are you doing for fridge heat ventilation?

Yes and you really miss them when wheeling. 2" .090 tubing bolted to the pinch weld. Very hard for the rails to see any contact with the factory skids.

Lighting— For additional lighting I used Old school 130W halogen KC with spread lens. Wired to a relay to come on with high beams. To help find that turn at night I install some Baja Design corner lights

Installed some 2" rails for some rocker protection and to protect my AMP Research steps The steps do not operate when in 4WD and are well protected by the rails. They do not operate when the rear doors open to make access to the fridge without the steps being in the way. Its super nice...

It would be super nice if you posted a build index in your 1st post and a link to it in your signature. It would eliminate a lot of questions/posts.

Do you have a total weight update? As for the pump suspending and insulating it made it as good as its going to get.

Im currently dealing with recovery from a house flood so no progress but still testing. Truth is I have been surprisingly happy with the FWC and considering a modified flat bed with exterior boxes for both cost and performance. You have reminded me I need to bring this thread up to date.

Good to hear

Sounds like you may want to have your hearing checked or you dont camp where its dead quiet. As you know its a common issue for many.

Insulate the pump well or the ticking noise will drive one crazy.
