Marc, You're not going soft on us are you...appliances ?? Bob

Good thought, we considered that issue and measured, there's about 4" clearance after the suspension hits the bumpstops. Not an issue, but thanks.

Your two batteries are in parallel, so only 12 volts total. No way to run the 24 volt lights on the existing system.

Water, Mud won't hurt a thing..Rocks & Logs, well, the tank is hell for stout and it would take a pretty good impact to damage it, might knock an air line off, but that's easily repaired The compressor is mounted to the bed, above the rear differential, if anything gets to it, it has to go...

It was two Canadian friends that introduced me to the term "Canukisatn"...sorry, Canada it is :bowdown::26_7_2: As for "fantastic" alternatives, if you're talking about Canadian Whiskey, not even close....:(

THANKS!! I"m not sure about OX11..It's in April and I'm leaving for all points north about the 15th of May. Might want to save the bucks that OX11 would cost in fuel, etc and add it to the big journey. My biggest fear is I won't be able to get Gentleman Jack in Canukastan. :Wow1: Will try...

Finally Got the air Compressor Installed Bought an "Extreme Air" Magnum compressor several month's back while attending Overland Expo. I just got around to getting it installed. Compressor is mounted upside down under the truck bed, and the air tank is mounted on the passenger side on the...

Was PBC in early 1980, haven't been to anything since about '95...guess I should break out the red shirt attend something one of these days :drool:

New Helvetia #5 You??

19 miles east of Nevada City, About 5 miles off HY 20 along Chalk Bluff Road. Got a bit of rain this afternoon, just enough to make spots in the dust on the truck... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "What say the Brethren?" "Hang the Bastards"

Here's mine, taken with my iPhone on Saturday 7/24/10 while in the Sierra's.

Struts Here's photos of the rear and front of my camper..I used 40lb struts on both the front and rear. Made all the difference in the world. I can sit on the couch and raise the roof with one hand. Should have done it years ago.

W6DOJ Preliminary FD Contact Nmbers Three of us up in the Sierra's having a great time on FD. Our location is off the grid so all op's are on emergency power. Murphy visited a few times so some of our operations were cut short, but still lots of fun. FD Score Summary Sheet Start Date ...

Jerry, So now let's see some pictures of that new engine all tucked in the Burb... Bob

Look For W6DOJ on the air Field Day Look for W6DOJ (CA. Dept. of Justice Radio Club) on the air field day. Three operators (K6ON, K6YN, K6XN). On the air from 5000' in the Sierra's near Blue Canyon, CA. Operating 6 bands, CW & SSB off the grid on generator/solar/battery power. One station...

Congrats on starting your 3500 Expo build. I have a 2500 that I've been slowly working on for a couple years and love it. I chose a four Wheel pop-up camper for general comfort and ease of set-up (I'm not a kid), also have the Kore Recon suspension system, and a full set of Power Wagon skids...

OK, here's mine.

Hey Jerry, The pleasure was mine..Couldn't have asked for better neighbors. Hope to see you guys out on the road, and for sure next year at Expo. The D.E. decals are proudly displayed on the rig. Bob

No argument here, As soon as I can find a good set of rock rails, they're gone.

Just back from Overland Expo..what a great event. Met a great group of folks, and even managed to learn a few things at my advanced age.. I ordered all of the PW skids from the dealer. As for the steering stabilizer skid, I posted a complete "how-to" including part number and pictures here...
