^^^ wider footprint?? even if that's the angle, the added stress on the bearings isn't worth it. if you don't want a trailer, buy a bigger rig rated to haul all the fam and gear you need. no matter what your angle, youre spending money to keep the family safe. why not get an suburban or...

oh I know. I was just being a ******** :D what your describing is exactly what I love about our setup. the bedding is always in place and not stowed elsewhere. the bed can be completely setup before top has reached full extention. we have plenty of additional storage above the front seats for crap...

uhgreed. like the low profile look of their tops even though it doesn't go full length of roof, but hate all the wasted space and small windows. i have never seen a gtrv in person either, but the whole low profile concept is great and something they should offer if demand was still there...

cool rating system. ive taken my awd civic wagon on roads similar to the 2.0 rating. yes i bottomed out, but made it through every obstacle we approached and never had to break out a shovel. of course a few of the obstacles required a few tries, lol. again, the vehicle isnt near as important as...

^^^ well put. I had a pretty much stock 88 sr5 v6 xtra cab Toyota and camped out of for 18 years. no lift, no accessories, no nothing but decent tires. rarely even put it in 4wd other than winter driving. was a great camp rig till our stash of camping crap got to big, lol. if you don't just...

dang I forgot your setup converted to a bulkhead. always impressed with your work brian, you crafty focker...

I noticed one of the mounting tabs on the locating arms was jacked up and that got us looking at everything closer. once we got to looking at it closer it actually looked like the passenger side of the axle was swept back. we put a straight edge on the front and it didn't sit flush. put same...

^^^ his van is sweet. love the color combos going on. would love to see more pix of it. rack looks like one of the northshore setups, but not 100% sure... he will have to confirm. I'm curious if the front rack impedes vision at all. when I put our 4 place rack in front receiver it puts the...

^^^ yep. theres a gent on the smb forum that is trying to gauge interest to see if theres a demand...

hiding in the rocks...

id start by pming him on here. I suggested him due to him being so close to you. been watching people have van work done over the last few years and its always a better option to be close to whoever your giving money to just in case theres issues after the fact. if your a do it yourselfer, never...

why not find a cargo van and put a bulkhead behind the rear bench seat? that way you can have a clean half and a "pickup bed" half. we had one for sale here last summer that was setup that way and looked pretty functional. the guy used it for mobile dental/medical tool repair. the back half was...

don't mind at all. im 46. its not the age anyway, its the miles and my chassis got no resale. wife says I have a salvaged title, lol. we bought a 03 wr250 to start off with. I put pegs on back for the mrs and her and I just used it to putt around the general vicinity so we didn't have to break...

doing my best to oblige :D totally agree with most you posted other than the carb thing. just not a fan. I can makem work, but I prefer fuel injection... in same boat and married 8+ years. got my wife into autox and local hillclimbs long ago (no real racetracks available without driving...

:iagree::luxhello::rockon::1888fbbd: well put vobile! love the rig. the ole girl got lots of flavor! glws!

don't have to break the bank to get a usable camper. like you said, you got a coolass 4wd van, everything else you can consider a bonus! we built ours out to be a people hauler with bench seats from a wrecked van. a trip out to the rv junkyard got us a 15 dollar table. then we figured out that...

its a Reunel rear bumper and tire carrier.

sneaky :clapping: the original pix made them look about 2-3" long at best. congrats mr redoval ;)
