Seat option If you are keen to get the seats lower you might want to consider the fold flat seats out of a Caravan. They seem to be thinner on the swab and do fold very flat.

Yep something to one side so one person can stay in bed if the other wants to get out.

You will probably need the axle code off the donor vehicle. If you are just wanting taller tires I have a couple of suggestions. Keep the 8 x 6.5 and you can run a spacer between the dual allowing for a bigger tire. Or run H1 rims with the 37" good years. Leave the front with normal dually width...

No idea on the cost of the EZ Trac system. Until I prove that it is a necessity I will stick with 2WD and just get plenty of clearance which should be fine for most of my traveling. The extended cab is only about 2ft longer than a standard cab. It really is OK for only one extra seat unless you...

I am on my 2nd version of these sofas. If you go with the least fancy version (minimal pleating and no sculpturing of the back) and go with cloth not the leather/vinyl. We have no trouble sleeping on them and neither of us is petite. Ours were under $800 delivered to the door. And it made the...

Be a bit careful on the 19.5 sizing. 265/70-19.5 will get you to about 34.5. But they are harder to get and potentially an issue if you need to replace one along the road. 245 and 225 are a lot easier to find. 285's are as rare as rocking horse poop. Also check how much noise they make. The ones...

I singled out my Ambo. Having lived and worked in the bush for a long time I just do not like duals. My first hand problems related to the tracking of duals on tracks that are just 2 wheel ruts (1/2 of Australia :) ), getting rocks stuck between the duals and the final factor was the capacity of...

OK I will throw in my 2c worth. KLR and Dr's are both good bikes. KLR is more friendly for the pavement while the DR's are better in the dirt. Bar risers are for taller riders or when you are standing on the pegs a lot. What Mo would be looking for are bar backs. These bring the bars back...

I have not seen any that run when they are plugged in. But it is possible to use dual compressors. My old sportsmobile had that system. Not very efficient as there is not enough airflow across the condenser without running noisy electric fans that can drain your batteries even with it plugged in.

Bed Model : I am not sure of the exact name but this time we went for basically the cheapest one without the arm rests (they looked good but where to put them when you opened the bed was a pain. Always in the way. The ARB is the 45 liter/quart one I believe. Only using that as I have had it for...

Yep we will be there again. Just have to get my butt in gear and make sure we have the rig ready enough (at least replace the 3 drywall screws holding the bed in with bolts )

No photos but a little progress. Threw in a basic water/sink system. Mounted the ARB fridge with a spare seat belt. Screwed the sleeper/sofa in with 3 drywall screws. Grabbed the missus's microwave and put it in a cabinet along with the induction cooker. Off to the DMV to get the classification...

Hi Mikey Yep that would not be a problem. I will be dragging them off the back deck this week to make sure they are OK for visitors so anytime this weekend onwards. Also we are having an open house Sat so if you wanted to tie a trip to the bike show, test out the DR and sample some Aussie...

After driving mine from Miami to Phoenix I would suggest no radio but noise canceling headphones. Does it gave the 8 x 275 weird lug pattern?

Hmm the lazy bugger in me is tempting me to delay my build so I can "repurpose" some of your ideas. Looking forward to this one.

Yamaha TW200. Plenty of aftermarket support. Been basically the same bike for over 20 years and they are great off road. But you will need to search hard to find one for 1k

Very hard to register/title a bike in Chile as a foreigner. I checked into this when I lived down there in 2008/9 so thinks may of changed but the basics are to buy and register/title a Chilean bike you need a residents card/number. It is hard to get but not impossible. Then if I remember...

Make a weekend of it. Open house about 5 miles from Stadium Sat night. We are having an open house Sat night about 5 miles from the show. Camping space available. Australia Day Open House
