Purchased an iPad mini to run Gaia and whatever other apps might be useful. Also got the Ram mount to hold it. Any suggestions for the best way to secure the stalk to the dash plastic?

Tested out the locking front axle. In soft sand, no difference. This truck simply will not go in sand as currently configured. Where my F150 goes with no issues this truck won't even go far enough to get the rear axle in sand. Sure hoping super singles with wider front tires offers noticeable...

Phase three was to select a builder. My short list was Idaho Camper, Expedition Camper and Overland Explorer. None of them were eliminated as I think all would have been fine choices. I selected Overland Explorer due to their real world experience and demonstrated expertise with one off...

I am concerned about the increased harshness and decreased ride on the front axle with the heavier duty tires. Once I get my typical all up weight settled I plan to have Pohl Spring in Spokane custom make a set of springs specifically for my truck and its weight.

I expect the camper not to exceed 4000 lbs. My boat weights 8600 with trailer. Not sure of the tongue weight. I do know there are tools to reseat beads in the field. Might not be an idea solution but they are available. I have heard the stories about Rickson here. I have also been told...

I spoke with Stazworks. They wanted me to provide all the measurements etc for wheel offsets and so forth. I kind of figured they should be the expert and know how to build the correct wheel for my application. Prob would have went with them otherwise. Java, I am planning on the 608Z also...

Planning on the Toyo M608z in 258/75/R19.5 size tires. Regarding heavy rig tires such as these and airing them down. I can tell you that the spud haulers around here have air down ability on their drivers and trailer tires. These are full size semi's and the ability to air down makes the...

Someone ask about the use of the flatbed without the camper. My daughters dog likes the toolbox. LOL There must be a way to rotate the images?

The LMTV actually do have a very low crawler gear. Its first gear. Normal operation only gives you gears 2-7. You manually shift into 1st and your are locked into that gear. Pretty darn low gear. I think I am putting the best wheel assembly together FOR MY USE! I don't see a long heavy rig...

Could be. However a delete option is very affordable. End of problem.

4.10 limited slip. To me its a bit low. I hope the taller tires will drop the RPM enough. I just towed a 31' travel trailer from home to SLC and back. I pulled every grade, that speed constraints allowed, in top gear. Didn't down shift once. To me this means I have power to spare for a...

Kerry, in no particular order Big and heavy. Over 20,000 pounds empty. Slow - yes you can install higher speed axles etc. They seem more of a help then a fix. My truck worked best at 35-45 MPH on non paved roads. Availability of parts and service. Despite what I was told about off the...

Phase four was to deliver the F450 and build the flatbed. That has been done and I am already using the truck. I must say the fit, finish and attention to detail of the flatbed is superb. All my friends that shook their heads at my going ten hours away for a flatbed no longer do that upon...

So my four plus year process is nearing completion. Phase five was recently completed. Phase one was really about determining my needs. Expedition quality vehicle with the ability to sleep four, 4-wheel drive and the ability to tow 9000 pounds. There were/are other less important...
