Yep - Freshspecblue GT is correct. It is 80/20. They sell off-cuts on ebay as well (http://www.ebay.com/usr/8020inc). This is the 1.5" stuff. Very beefy. I suspect the 1" would work as well and save some weight. I'm really excited about this build. Should be modular and easy to modify without...

80/20 OK, here is the basic idea. 80/20 is super easy to work with. This platform is about 1.5" higher than ideal, but I want to wait to get my water tanks situated before I cut the legs. There will be an additional cross brace on the larger part. Will attach with four L-brackets. You can see...

Thanks for that quickie calculation Dave!

wow - ingenious. Three guys pull a 3800 pound vehicle from the water by human power alone. Amazing! I wonder what the gear reduction was on their "winch?"

Let the fun begin! - Looking for suggestions OK - ready to start. FedEx dropped of a new Adventure Trailers combo slide yesterday… Now we can begin. Let me start by saying that while I'm generally a cheapskate, I'm of the mind of doing it right the first time and making it last. The A/T slide...

Awesome build Corter! I guess I haven't been watching The Samba lately. Love my syncro too!

I've had my 80 (1996) 2.5 years now and haven't had much to contribute for a build thread. I bought the truck from my friend John who did all the good, fun, and expensive stuff and sold it to me. When I got it it look like it had been hit with a Slee truck - a full complement of armor- bumpers...

Great build! Can you comment on your water tank - where you found it, etc.?

May have interest in pickup.

For those considering 255/85/16s... I just got this email from Cooper Tire in my response to questions about ST/MAXX availability in 285/75/16 and 255/85/16 sizes: "We currently have about 3700 tires on back order, and are producing over 1000 tires per week. So it looks like about four to five...

Thanks Scott - I appreciate the feedback.

I'm sure Cooper's A/T3 is just fine for light off-road, but does anyone have any experience with continued exposure to rocky trails (Colorado passes, Baja, Moab)? I've been leaning toward ST/Maxx to replace my MTRs, but they are on backorder now. BTW, my MTRs have been great tires, but they are...

What he said. I have one and it is fantastic. Far more robust than Thule T2 and doesn't mess the departure angle up too much.

Sweet! I almost called about that truck when it was for sale.

Agreed. 7-10k tops.

You know that must be in the boost even pushing 60mph on a flat road. Can't imagine the fuel economy would be much better than 15 tops. Still, cool rig!

Anyone interested in selling their Howling Moon Stargazer 1.6 or 2.4 meter?
