@OverlandFT here are photos of the stock flares re-installed after substantial fender trimming to fit the MPTs

Well... I dont quite know what my "ride height" is yet, as i havent really dialed in the suspension. But as it is sitting right now, with the 41" MPTs and Kelderman set to stock height, its 39 3/4” from bottom of ground to top of frame rails.
Because its a trivial measurement really

That escalated quickly...
Kept going back and forth with flooring, and what kind, am i going to do it all at once and just cut out as i build, or build on top of it, etc...
A ridiculous amount of #Vanlife, SchoolBus converting nerds and Home DIY folks on YouTube absolutely rave about the peel...
Nice! Those Vitrifrigos are darn nice. Couple friends have them and love them.
I’m going with the ARB ZERO 101 top load style and it will also double as counter top space. I ordered it last week. Still waiting
