Where? New Mexico, I assume..?

I built a similar system for all 4 corners. It’s a lot of hose to bring to pack and unroll/roll, but works well. Faster than ARB. If I were to upgrade, I’d consider building the system into the truck so I don’t have to deal with so much hose, similar to UpDown Air or Sponsored by Wifey. I’ve...

Hell yeah. Load ‘er up with a week’s worth of supplies and gear and report back. PS - I like rake so the truck sits level when fully loaded.

I thought the OP was crazy to ratchet and winch the spare, but now I think I could use this on my trailer. Thanks @jewishoverlander!

Did not know this till today. Bummer.

I usually plug simplicity, but maybe adjustable shocks would shine in this application?

I do not have a camper, so feel free to pass this one by. I normally load trips near payload, but rarely, if ever, over payload. Daily driving is camper shell and platform only - my medium OMEs are a tad bouncy when unloaded, but perfect with most any additional load all the way up to max. I’m...

This stuff’s at Home Depot? Link?

Coosa destroys most blades/bits intended for wood due to the fiberglass content, but blades/bits intended for metal are perfect.

It definitely has its uses. I replaced all of the outside teak on my small sailboat with Starboard, and it’s great. It works just like wood with power tools. But it’s heavy, not dimensionally stable with temp, prone to sagging if not fastened well, and won’t take any adhesive. I think composite...

Are these off the shelf items? If so, what are they called?

@SaltStainedEyes I edited my previous. GLWS.

Dude fixed the title now.

Do you know the specific VHB you chose? Also, where you sourced it? Some of the exotic/structural stuff is hard to find.

If you end up building from scratch though, there’s likely a local axle place that can build you exactly what you need - width, hubs, weight capacity, spring hangers, etc. There are also online vendors. Very reasonable pricing, as I recall.

If you end up running adapters/spacers, check out Bulletproof Off Road Adapters / Motorsport-Tech. They can make any arrangement you need.
