Erin, Great to hear from you. With the fridge in the back seat, I can put the seat all the way to the back but it just fits and the seat angle is too straight up and down. If you move the seat ahead by one notch, you can lean it back a bit to get a better seating position. So far so good as...

Installing/Removing the fridge. That is one drawback but I've come to the conclusion that the fridge will stay in the Truck untill the end of this fall. It's a bear to wrestle in there but doable. Cheers, P

Camp table Simple, cheap and effective. Well done!

Demello Frame Re-inforcements Found some pictures of the Demello Frame Re-inforcements that were installed to help mitigate any potential frame issues, not counting rust I guess... Started with this: Spent a good two hours cleaning up the frame with a wire wheel and grinder for proper...

Found the fridge mounting picture. They are not the best shots, but they should give you an idea. The first thing I did was removed both back seats and all the plastic from the back of the cab. No pics of this but it's relatively simple. Then I used a piece of plywood that was left over...

Fridge mounting. Thanks! I've got some pictures of the fridge somewhere. I'll dig them up and post them. Cheers, P

Garbage bag holder. Along the same lines, the garbage bag holder untill bed time that is because I would not want any critters getting too close after smelling the table scraps...:Wow1:

The shake down run. Well I just got back from the official shake down run for the new configuration. A total of five rigs went out. We were doing some pre-scouting for an upcoming trip more details about that one later... :peepwall: I've got some tweaking to do... The list: 1-Re-organize...

The rig. Thanks man, I appreciate the good words.

The money tree is done... Ha ha, unfortunately that was the end of the spring "bloom" for the money tree! Time for some Expedition grade miracle grow! :shakin: You have no idea how much I'd love to go to ET...current plan for an ET apperance with the rig is 2009. Can't wait. Cheers, P

Putting it all together... part 2 The final item to address before the trip was to deploy the tent and drill a few extra holes in the ladder to accomodate various terrain types. The neighbours must think I'm nuts... You can also see the top of AT Can Holders mounted to my rear bumper in...

Putting it all together...part 1 The long weekend and maiden voyage is here! I've been busy buying supplies, packing the fridge, putting all the gear in the truck and checking everything out for the first trip with the new set up. I'm super excited! :wings: I picked up a few goodies for a...

Thanks! Thanks. I was standing on the platform to drill the holes for mounting the tent. It held my weight no problem.

Tacomas can RIP... The recall is limited to 95.5 to 2000 Tacomas as of right now. FYI, the vehicles that are rusting out that I have seen anyhow have all been neglected. In our climate (on the coast with lots of sea mist/fog and the road salt in the winter) you have to be very very dilligent...

Sad day for Tacoma owners... Was doing some catch up on TTORA about the whole rust issue and saw two things that made me sad... Locally: Originally posted by trucknut on TTORA. Good luck finding parts in the junk yards... Ok...so i work at A-Reliable, we were bought out last year by LKQ...

You have to hate the rusties! I can understand how you feel. Just went through the inspection but the truck passed, thank godness. I'm not ready to part with it just yet, after all the work I want to enjoy it some. The good thing is that Toyota is paying good money for these trucks at the...

Pictures. Pete, Thanks for posting the information! I'm not sure now if I have the same symptoms as you are experiencing. My rig is making a small clunk/thud sound when it comes to a stop. There is not clunking when hitting pot holes. I'm going to have to keep tracking it down. No luck so...

Victoria Day Thanks KC. It takes time to get things "just perfect". :D Now, all I have to do is go out and enjoy it! That would be the one. The next time you are in the area, let me know. We could meet up for a cup of coffee :coffeedrink: or a cold one :beer:. Cheers, P

Fun in the sun, water and sand. Just darn cool! I guess the "Dude" can add "Sailing Dude" to his title now! Glad you were able to enjoy the trip! :sombrero: Cheers, P

Et.08 Much appreciated sir! Now I have to start planning for some vacation time!
