I know exactly how you feel! Looking good man!

Thanks man! I like that one a lot too.

Thanks man, I think it's pretty cool myself! All five of us fit in the tent. We plan on getting a small cot for my son to sleep on down in the annex soon to free up a little more room in the tent.

It has been a busy few weeks! We took the family down to the Oregon coast to go "camping" last weekend. The original pan was to go to Bend and stop by CVT and see my father in-law, but the potential 100+ temps were none to inviting so we last minute changed plans an reserved a camp site at...

Tested the ditch scaling ability again today. I had my son do the filming.

I got a bevy of small projects done today. We are heading down to Bend OR for a camping trip next week so I wanted to change the oil, fuel filter, and trans fluid. I would have liked to change the rear diff fluid as well but it will have to wait, that stuff ain't cheap! I also made it to...

The curse of the OBS Ford door handle continues! Several months back I broke my plastic interior door handle and in the process of fixing it found that the lever mechanism was broken free from the door as well. Turns out this is a common problem so I fixed the mount and got a set of older metal...

Your cousins truck is my trucks twin!

Boat siding your truck would be the best from a clearance stand point for sure and since you would not be cutting into the cab it would not be that much work either. I think that 2x4 is overkill and would only add weight and cost with little to gain from it. 2x2x.188 is super strong and you...

some fun in Capital forest WA

Here is mine, I have only scraped once, the clearance is amazing.

I would use .250 wall for the supports from the frame to the main tube, but the main tube will be plenty strong enough with 2x2x.188". If you don't have a tubing bender just use some 1x2" square tube for the steps. I like the idea of having it removable so I will weld some pate with 1/2-13 weld...

We went down to some friends in Olympia to camp this weekend. On Saturday we went shooting and wheeling in Capital forest. Here is a short video of some of the action....

Tubs are looking good. I think you will like the old MTRs, they have been great for me in two sizes and on two different trucks.

Sounds Like fun! There is nothing like wheeling a crew cab in the PNW!

Yeah for now they are there only because it was the easiest way to mount them. I am toying with the Idea of mounting them up on the cowl to protect them better. I also want some kind of LED bar with a flood pattern to complement these spots. Thanks dango, how are you liking the PNW?

Recent trip to mountain loop hyw

I got a chance to install some 9" HID lights that were given to me a few weeks back. Since I needed to add a relay and fuse I decided to do the "whiter whites and brighter brights" mod to the headlights at the same time. The factory lights run the power through the switch at the dash and uses...

There were a few f250 short bed extended cab trucks made in 96 and 97, but it is pretty hard to find one these days. To get that configuration you will most likely need to buy an F150 and upgrade it or make one. I love my crew cab short bed and you would be surprised how capable they can be on...

Your creased edge with an iron trick is awesome. That makes a ton of sense in eliminating steps and extra costs. Ideally zippers would be the best way to attach modular panels together but that would add up to a bunch of $ in a hurry, especially a weather tight kind. I also like the built in...
