    LX450 + CHINOOK CONVERSION

    Sweet Rig I love it! Did you ever sort out your LED lighting? I noticed your thread is a bit older and you were having issues a couple years ago figuring a way to dim led lights. I have amber adhesive strips tucked behind my upper cabinets in my Alaskan camper and run em off a 12 volt adjustable...

    Alaskan on a 97 F250 4x4 Diesel

    Thought I'd pop in to say I've been getting plenty of use out of the rig. She's been pretty damn solid and we're really enjoying it. Lots of little mods here and there including a new rear folding moto hauler/porch thats 3 times lighter. I've been to Moab, Mojave rd, countless trips to the...

    The Dirt Sherpa Build

    As a guy also into motos, why don't don't you bring a dirt bike and go ride trails using the rig as a base camp? Personally that was my main motivation for building my rig and I love it. It might rekindle the enthusiasm to get out in it. Nice work btw! I see you're in the bay area as well as me...

    Your preferred regulator for a single 100w solar panel

    I have a windynation P30 I bought for 30 bucks. It worked very well for about a year running a renogy 100w briefcase panel then when I installed two permanent 100w panels on my roof, it went haywire and I saw it get up to 16v before disconnecting it. I will say windynation was great to deal with...

    On and Off?

    Although my truck is obviously limited with the camper in it's bed it's surprisingly capable for having a camper in it off road and can get into some pretty remote areas. For reasons mentioned already I wouldn't want to load and load it just to go wheeling. Besides that's what dirt bikes are for...

    Gotta love the Ute bed I just took a look at your page it's awesome that you built your own! It is hard to find a factory one the right height as I can attest after building one out to fit my Alaskan. My lady and I tend to bring motos with us alot so the extra storage for all the associated gear...

    Heating a pop-up truck camper?

    I recently replaced the sketchy analog thermostat in my Alaskan with this simple and works great https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00H6ARNXO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I also have glass windows which we cover with Reflectix panels when it's really cold and it makes a big...

    Alaskan on a 97 F250 4x4 Diesel

    Thanks for the compliments! I do have a spare and it's in the stock mounting location under the bed. It just barely fits at 33', any bigger I'd have to re-locate it. I never seem to drag it even at stock ride height and if I did who cares it's a tire lol

    Alaskan on a 97 F250 4x4 Diesel

    Just got back from a 2 week get away through Mojave & DeathValley. Had a great time even with some foul weather we encountered through Mojave at first. The wet conditions made driving the sand really good actually, I took our psi down to 40/30 and pretty much tractored through everything with...

    1st gen Tacoma suspension upgrade options for hauling truck camper

    I'd be looking a serious brake upgrade as well, my 1st gen Tundra was sketchy AF with a 1200 lb camper in the brake dept. If it's an auto trans a big cooler and fan would probably also be wise

    2005 F-450 4x4 Utility Body w/ Starcraft Pine Mountain Lonestar Pop-top Camper

    Cool little solar panel, does it have a built in regulator? How many watts? I assume it just charges through your cig lighter
