Final Result of R=Today's Efforts Both sidewalls have their door jambs on, and the first coat of finish has been applied to the inner walls and the inner face of the jambs. You will no doubt notice that the grain on the inner wall is horizontal, and the grain on the inner face of the jambs is...

Door Jambs Today was the day to finish off and mount the door jambs. I had the rough cut jambs glued up (except for the piece upon which the bulb seal is mounted) , and now they needed to be trimmed and mounted on the side walls. I had cut them oversize a little bit, and I also had the...

Quick Update The second side is wired and has the interior panel on, and the two door jambs are rough cut. Was only able to work a few hours today, so not a great deal of progress.

Progress Continued So after routing with the Dremel, I was ready to set the tee-nuts and epoxy them in place. I could not find any glue syringes to use with the epoxy I had on hand, but found this stuff and it has a mixing applicator tip. It worked great, and the tee-nuts are all in place...

Back On Track Some shots of the fiberglassed wheel wells: The tool bag is from Adventure Tool Company (http://adventuretoolcompany.com) I like their stuff very much, as well as the fact that the company is basically a couple, and the service is very personalized. And I love the way it...

I fat fingered 235/65, it is actually 225/65. Sorry! My Outback is a third generation 2008 version. Each version is slightly different. What works on one may not work on another. Moreover, static measurements do not tell the whole story, as the wheels, the rear as well as the front, move...

Thank you for writing, and I totally agree with what you are saying. However, my final finish coating will be Monstaliner, which is rough textured. I am going for tough waterproofing over sleek smoothness. For what it's worth, lately when I think of micro-balloons, I recall the cute animated...

Why do I find this solution as a concept so attractive?

Thank you! I don't have a build thread, as this has evolved over several years. However, I will probably submit an article to Offroad Subaru with photos of the rear tire carrier.

hmmm. These should be in order . . .

Two weekends to report upon The first weekend involved building this on the tow vehicle: It turned out well, and will also carry some water jugs. Then this immediate past weekend I went to the NWOR, which was a great time, and a chance to relax and be away from the build. Did I mention...

2008 Subaru Outback Eddie Bauer Edition, 3.0 I've been slowly building this Outback over the last four years. These photos were taken at the Northwest Overland Rally in Plain, Washington this last weekend. I took off on a solo trail run up some of the Forest Service Roads. Beautiful country...

Zing!

Not to mention fishing tackle bags . . .

Beautifully done. Thank you for sharing.

Summary For The OP The OP asked about three specific products for his application and his specifications for the application. Then the experts weighed in, and the thread went south. But here is a summary, as best as I can make out, for the OP: It is two experts to one against LED lights, but...

Rayra, those panels look great! Wonderful job.

Weekend Project Spork: Not Spork:

Very, very cool. This is going to be epic.

Your wooden door looked fine. It would have looked very different by the time you filled the screw heads and put your final finish on it. They are time-consuming, though. I figured about two hours each on mine and I'm over four hours into the first one. I was afraid to tackle them initially...
