Tentatively sold!

Thanks for posting a link that worked! (Sorry for being MIA, got the 'ronas) Still working on detailing the interior, also some of the carpet needs to be tucked in/ finished. PS cash talks!

Some of those awd express vans are stupid expensive, must have gold bars in the frames....... mine didn't Listing my van. Love it, but we have an upcoming double international adoption that we need to fund (and our growing family will need bigger van soon) 2007 chevy express, 5.3l v8, factory...

Haven't noticed any wheel hop...... ......but the way the leaf is bent makes me wonder! Ant Utah jeepers headed our this weekend? I haven't been in 4lo for a week and a half and its killing me!

Now thats a bent spring if I have ever seen one! Parts should be here today to out it back together, might take it out this weekend too.

Jeepagon wheeled all day in 95 degree weather, not even a hint of vaporlock or heatsoak. Bad pic but this is the analog temp gauge I added (my factory dash only has an idiot light) on a hot day after shutting off the motor you can watch the temperature rise 10-30 degrees! On a warm day I just...

Duct taped on a flag and hit up Sand Hollow It was hotter than I was ready for, so we had to cool Jr. off in the water.

Abandoned hot spring. (Lil kiddo loves his jeep rides, cedar gnats bites not so much) Lava tube bigger than my whole house! Random cinder cone.

Been super busy using the jeepagon 3.0 this last two months! Just a few places it has taken us: An abandoned mill. A ghost town. Long road to "nowhere".

I like these pizza cutter tires. They dig through the slop and get traction nicely. I don't like the howl from the lightbar though!

Was able to get some poser pic and measure for bump stops while kiddo slept.

Kiddo fell asleep on the way home from the sitters, so we went on a drive. He slept like a log even over the potholes and washboard! Got in a bit of a fender bender;)

Tent material is installed! Tons of ventilation for summer sleeping! Still need to cut the fringes from the Mexican blanket headliner, was able to reuse the factory headliner under the poptop! Keeps the speakers and dome lights intact! The gas struts are shot. I need beefier ones anyway to...

I don't know any shops down in the valley. Too big of a cheapskate. I had a WJ with a 4.0 (same coil rail) that would do that! Turned out to be a combination of rust flakes coming off the fuel injector rail plugging injectors under load and loose intake/ exhaust bolts.

Thanks! It's been a fun project. What codes is it throwing? Let's get it out in the dirt!

Somewhere along the way I decided to install a lightbar. Lightbars before lockers? Still need to finish the wiring and the tent top, wire up the GMRS radio,, but its on the street and registered again!

Long story short this was a failure. The fabric was just too heavy and stuffy. I couldn’t get it to lay down without lots of wrinkles. While attempting to install the canvas in my garage during a snow storm I was sweating in the stale air. Using my first attempt as a pattern the I ended up...

Then came the part I was really dreading: the top. The sum total of all my sewing experience was a pretty sad looking potholder in junior high home economics……what could go wrong? I started off with some military surplus material that is rubberized, waterproof and didn’t fray when cut. My...

The front portion of the platform will be 2 sheets of aluminum hinged in the middle. Played around with some 3d printed dimple dies (the dimples added some strength, made it a bit lighter and adds ventilation to the sleeping platform The hose clamps turned out to be necessary to keep the...

Then I started on the storage/ sleeping platform: Used a light steel frame with some 3/8 ply to sleep on. Skinned it with some aluminum underneath for a more finished look:
