great video and I give you credit for doing this now so you will be well practiced down the road... Heck I give you mucho credit for doing it at all vs having a shop do all that work :) I like your site and looking forward to more, thanks for posting

#1 change your fuel filter every other oil change... #2 air in the lines takes far more work to get out than you ever belive #3 see what everyone else on this thread says :)

Very very cool... my only concern is if you are using the propane bottles while they are under the stove...could get interesting maybe? Thanks for posting it up and I really like how you use it for a sink also.

Hey Larry....I love the fun & friendly ribbing so don't stop just cuz I am crying over in the corner :) The only reason the Aus mag's are so good is cuz the US mags are so bad :) I would have to buy 4 US mags to equal the 300 pgs I get per issue of 4wd action...and a DVD each month. I will be...

SWWWWEEEETTTT Even though I have a 70 Burb and a 72 Truck I gotta say I love the Blazers....and with yours having the full removable top it is even better. Pretty sure I mentioned it in the other thread but 67-72chevytrucks.com THE resource...not so much for the travel thing but for fixing it...

If you look up my Ozwagon Troopie build you will see my setup by set process that made a huge difference with a diesel rig in the brutal Phoenix desert. I painted with this micro-sphere latex stuff that insulates & sound deadens...that really helped & was easy Then added a layer of FatMat all...

Hey Todd, Very cool idea on the propane and one that I spent alot of time thinking about last night when reading my latest issue of 4wd Action. That is one reason I spend so much to have the mag shipped over from Aus, it is almost 300 pages each issue filled with real life good info & amazing...

great looking burb.... now get out and do some trips and I bet your interest will get rekindled. As interesting as builds are it is really making use of our toys that matters....the rigs are just a tool for taking the family out to see & experience cool remote areas. You have a ton of options...

Jack..nothing wrong with your question but a 6BT would be a real tight squeeze and a big jump in wgt. I have found a couple of lines on bare blocks and complete engines (6.2's) so it is just a matter of seeing what is not cracked :) I agree that the 700r4 could be used with my 350 after a...

My wife loves Photoshop and I am sure we will end up with CS6, I prefer Lightroom as I really don't do much to my pics and it works great for what I do need to do. Nice thing is if I want more than Lightroom can do I just give her the pic and lean over her shoulder telling her what I...

Thanks for the thoughts guys... Larry that is a cool table but not sure my wife would be cool with that around...she works at a machine shop and then puts up with me & the boys at home...inside the house is her domain. A Ford motor in my Chevy...well I am not at that point yet even though I...

Having met Waymons wife and more importantly having tasted her amazing desserts I can say that she is a great wife. I can't wait to check out this trailer in person and see it in action, especially after making fun of Waymon setting up the tent-majal on the last few outings we had :) Looks...

looks great and ready to go once you pop a fridge in there Look forward to meeting up with you guys when we come over for June/July adventures

Well one of the shop guys came in and told my wife that the block has cracks (she is the office manager of a diesel engine machine shop). She went out and snapped these pics with her phone and sent them to me. I have not spoken to the owner who runs the shop to see if he is willing to try & fix...

Hey Brian thanks for the info on the radio setups...believe it or not that has been a huge issue for disabled overlanders who use handcontrols and want to talk on the radio. With 1 hand on the brake/throttle lever and one on the steering wheel there is nothing left for the mic.

Cool 88....I am running a 70 3/4t and loving my 255/85/16 BFG M/T's looking forward to what you do with the inside for camping oh and welcome

I have the 63 and love the long & low style of it. I have also owned an Engel 45 and a National Luna 52 weekender so I know a bit about how different fridges work in different rigs. For my current Suburban the ARB 63 lets me reach in through the rear hatch to grab something and yet is low...

very cool find... you can do alot for free just by cleaning it up and doing cheap prevent-maint stuff. But if it was me I would work hard to get as much wood & stuff out of there and get the wgt down. Less wgt means less stress on the rig. Keep us posted on progress.

crazy story by pics....lots of work there and I love the engine in the back of the burb. So how are you liking the setup right now? Any plans for the interior?

great write up on your website... I never knew about the cracked frame...thoughts on cause and what you might do differently now to keep something like that from happening? You guys are the benchmark for many of us who have followed your articles for years in the mainstream mags....great work...
