You don't need a fancy kitchen and stove to eat well. I keep some MRE's, freeze dried and canned food in my rig for emergencies and if I run out of fresh food or want to stay out for a few more days. It is nice to have some food that doesn't require cooking if the weather is bad or you don't...

Too bad it has 19" rims.

Good luck! Your website looks great.

Check your air pressure and maybe consider new springs in the rear. Agile bent the rear overloads down slightly (too improved ride) when I had my RIP installed I may try taking out the bottom overload leaf before getting new springs. I may check with Deaver.

Nice work. Are the window black-out panels replacing the glass?

The Raptor Wagon would be great!

The new Ranger and Everest exist in other countries. My bet would be an Everest re-badged as the Bronco for the USA.

Anything is possible if you have the $$$ :) Check out the Power Wagons here. Amazing work http://www.legacyclassictrucks.com/

I would go with 70 series tires to get more sidewall and a better ride. Here are 265x70x17 BFGs (old style) Next time maybe 275x75x17s to get a 75 series tire

What about the MB Sprinter 4x4 and Transit vans?

With that kind of mileage (on any vehicle) I would plan/budget for an engine rebuild. 4th Gen V6 has plenty of power in most situations.

You didn't mention tire size or air pressure? I would experiment with lower psi and see if that makes a difference. You could put 4 bags of cement over the rear wheels as well for extra weight??

Ridge your van looks great. A simple and versatile interior is good. I just gutted my van and have a blank slate to work with.

Ridge any pics of the inside of your van? I'm working on mine.

Q Flight Nice build. What are the dimensions of your bed/ bench set up? Are you going to sleep length-wise or cross-ways to the van? Is the C frame anchored to the walls?

I want to try silicone spray on the inside of my fender wells to see it that keeps the mud from sticking. It probably would be washed of in the first rain or mud crossing though?

The TRD "Pre-Runner" are 2x4 but have the rear locker.

How about a Jeep J8? They already make it! The J8 is equipped with larger brakes, axles and suspension components than the civilian version and has a payload capacity of 1,339 kilograms (2,952 lb). Available as a two-door with an extended pickup bed for personnel or equipment transport, or a...

Sounds like a good trip. Great country. Building road builds character:)

I'd upgrade the tires and run higher than normal air pressure. Also remember handling and breaking issues when fully loaded.
