We like it a lot, this is the first and only weekend this summer we are not using it, it's booked for the next 3 weeks though!
As requested. Building it to drag behind the camper that's in the obese thread. 2000 TJ, 3.3 Cummins, NVG3550, NP231 with 32 spline short shaft, Dana 60 4.88 Detroit rear, similarly equipped high pinion Dana 44 front, 37" BFG KM2's, 3" lift with cutting to accommodate the new position of the...
First built on a F-700 4x4 chassis with 33 000 pound GVW. It had a 5.9 Cummins and it was fine with just the camper. When I hooked the trailer on, which we haul up to 4 bikes and a Jeep in it really sucked it down on hills, crossing the divide with that configuration wasn't going to fly. So I...
18 959 pounds which is 7041 pounds UNDER GVW. That's with 4 in the cab, 150 gallons of fresh water, 80 gallons of diesel, food and drinks for 4 days. Its like driving a car, it steers good, stops great, and even goes up hills at speed!
We charge 35-40K for a 4wd conversion, 20K sounds like a heck of a deal (we inspect and repair/rebuild a LOT of medium to heavy 4wd conversions). Ez Trac sounds like it will be going out the door 8-10k less from what I have been quoted so far. It looks like a very viable option to me, I do like...
I bought a F-650 with a C7 Cat and a 3000 Allison, works really good. I am going to throw in an EZ Trac front axle this winter, 4WD without the height. I'm really liking mine 8" lower than my F-700 was.
Gotta love the secret spots!
We had a freak gust of wind and not much of one at that catch the awning on our last RV, it blew all of the cast brackets apart and sent the tube high enough in the air to go right over the RV and the end of the awning tube pierced the roof skin on my truck, it...
Great thread! How about including some of the builds from other sites? H8 mud has some killer builds, Pirate has a few, ADV rider has some good ones on adventure bikes which would make a nice addition to the thread being as Expo has a bike section too.
My bikes don't boil over with it, it definitely gets me over that threshold and keeps me going. My quad doesn't cycle the fan nearly as much so there is a possibility of better thermal transfer but I have not investigated that any further.
I have seen the cavitation issue with the diesels is...
I run this stuff in ALL of my bikes and ATV's and it works. I race cross country and hare scrambles, when we get into some tight nasty stuff with killer hills and we work the crap out of our bikes there is always a pile of steaming bikes. The common fix, especially for the KTM crowd (and mostly...
I rolled it on medium wet, 3 coats. Judging from the hardness when dry, I wouldn't use it where there is a lot of flexing, it dries pretty flat, not any gloss or a satin finish. It will fill in pretty deep scratches, and doesn't seem to hold dust or anything real bad considering the surface...
I just used Monsta Liner on a project, worked OK for a doorway, the jury is out as far as durability. The advertisements are somewhat correct, it isn't a "crumbly" liner, but it does dry pretty hard, I can grab a couple of close ups for you if you want.
Under construction to pull behind my F-700 camper. SJ410, stretched frame front and rearOME YJ springs, spring under front, spring over rearm FJ40 diffs, just clears 35" rubber nicely, VW 1.6 TD, ACME adapter, etc..
