    UJOR Build Thread

    Don't know where you are or where you're headed but if you're running up Rte 1 along the coast, do yourself a favor and stop at Reds Eats in Wiscasset for a lobster roll. Killer. If you make it to Bar Harbor, 2Cats restaurant, it won't disappoint. I lived up there for 7 yrs and still miss the...

    1980 CJ7 build

    Burn out. Too many projects. Lack of the space I used to have.

    Traveling with kids and dog?

    I travel in CC F-350 pulling a 5th wheel. My dogs are each between 65-75 lbs and my girls are 10 and 11. No one under any circumstances rides in the camper. No topper for the truck for obvious reasons. The dogs work it out. My wife made a truck wide 4" thick covered cushion that fits on the...

    1980 CJ7 build

    A 1983 CJ I did from the ground up. 37/12.5r15 using mostly shagged out 2 1/2" lift springs in an SOA configuration in conjunction with gender mods and TJ flares. Do me a favor, bring a big trailer to my place and take away the ******** load of Jeep parts I've got laying around. Engines, axles...

    You interested in getting rid of the wiring you're pulling out? And if/when you get around to yanking that engine give me a shout.

    Ambulance Camper/ Expedition Rig Conversion FAQ

    I would suggest starting back in the module, at each component you are concerned with. Expose its electrical connection and make note of its color combo and lettering. Then you can match that up at the plugs that used to feed the missing control panel. Repeat this process for all the existing...

    Diesel Rig Recommendations???

    Dodge with the Cummins. They're a dime a dozen. I'm a Ford guy so you'd think 7.3 for me, but fan-boys have decided the 7.3 is made out of gold plated solid gold, demanding a premium for their 300k clunker so high it would be cheaper to buy a brand new engine from Ford and drop in your junk...

    Ambulance Camper/ Expedition Rig Conversion FAQ

    I'm with Pat. At this point you'd probably be time and money ahead to just strip the backend electrical and start over, using off the shelf standard components. Just trying to match those plugs and pin the female counterparts would be a mind numbing chore in itself, requiring tooling you're...

    Inflatable Kayaks

    Ah. AE 1007 then. 550# capacity and is convertible between a single/double open cockpit, double closed cockpit, and single closed cockpit. But it's not any easier on the budget. The upside is its bomber quality.

    Bed in a CJ?

    I'm surprised there's any of those left. I thought for sure Gojira had stomped every last one of them decades ago.

    After sizing up specialized's prices.....MOTOBECANE it is!

    I wouldn't worry too much about it. Every hobby has its Elitists. I bought a Minnesota fattie and while it isn't loaded with top shelf parts, parts that would be wasted on me anyway, it has worked just fine at the level I can push it. Which is to say about Level 1. I recently purchased a Rad...

    Ambulance Camper/ Expedition Rig Conversion FAQ

    I wouldn't get "too" wrapped up in researching type IIs, and would expand to vans in general. At the end of the day what you are going to want to stuff into your ambo, and how you do it, isn't going to be too much different than folks doing regular E-series. Especially those people with...

    New Rad Rover E-bike

    It's really a non-issue. I was just blowin smoke because I know there are a few folks here that can really get in a tizzy over the thought of the electrics on "real" bike trails. Besides, about the only thing I can rip is paper. I've seen some of those trail things you guys build out there...

    New Rad Rover E-bike

    I tried to resist but in he never I gave up and gave in. I know it's not the be-all of e-bikes but I'm not the be-all of riders so it evens out. Can't wait to get out to Colorado and rip it on some trails though! . . . . 3..2..1.. Boom.

    The Lunchbox Build... 4x4 chevy shorty van

    I don't know what the deal is anymore. In my thread people said they were gone, others said they could see, then people said they were back. Don't git it. I made a whole new post in a different thread in a different forum using pics stored on bucket and people said they showed up fine.

    Belafonte Reboot....Ambulance to 4x4 Camper Conversion

    Leaving on the 17th. I'm not worried about dloading them. Everything on there I have stored elsewhere. Actually several elsewheres, but I'm not intending to dink with it till I get back home and have access to an actual computer. Some things don't get along with IOS and for some reason it...

    Belafonte Reboot....Ambulance to 4x4 Camper Conversion

    This thread is pretty much useless till I get back home and find the time to fix the fiasco Photochucket created. Sorry to the folks coming in for some ideas/inspiration. Happy 4th!
