Also. There’s an early tour on our Instagram @wehartstravel

Hi. My next build will be an Isuzu! Will be curious to see yours. Happy to show you the rig if you get towards STL (we are in Union). I can measure those seats.

In my c5500 build I deleted my rear glass and bonded in an aluminum panel. Then cut the crawl through as large as I could. To get around the seat back issue I sourced Ford super duty jump seats (which I installed 4 across), they fold individually and have built in should restraints.

Followed your IG. Ever get to the Midwest we’re always interested to meet other travel families. And I’d love to see your rig.

I met with Rolly a while back and looked at that NRR he has. Good stuff. Seems he has wheel options for you. Curious how much travel you’ll have with your lift. We really want to go to a cab over crew (we are a fam of six plus dog) currently in a c5500 self built expedition truck...

Look up Santan Solar and ask for Rusty, I believe they’re along your route. And or if going a northerly route call Nate @explorist life in steamboat CO. Good luck. Overland expo starting tomorrow in flagstaff. Lots of resources there. We’re in the diy showcase @wehartstravel

Same here. A few of ours cracked on our way to Guatemala. They wouldn’t ship replacements so I went to Stazworks who bent over backwards for us and had wheels on a plane in about a week! Can’t say enough good about Stazworks. Ultimately FiratAttack DID refund our money. We had their wheels...

We’re a family of six, we’re in the DIY showcase at Expo. If you do bring it to expo would love to see your build. Ours is @wehartstravel on IG.

Super cool rig. I’ve seen it a few times. Often at Overland expo.

Sorry direct link didn’t work. Go to their page and you can find it. It’s a little car lot.

In my town. No affiliation. We love our crew cab family expedition truck @wehartstravel

A couple thoughts. We’re running 41” continentals on Staz wheels. I started with balance beads and very much disliked them. I didn’t like the feel of them spinning up, and maybe just an install issue but had trouble with debris plugging my valve stems when airing up / down. I’d like to try...

This rig served as the inspiration for our build and we finally got to see it in person at Expo. Wow, even better in person. The attention to detail is awesome. It’s a purpose built truck which is used, tested, and functioning for its purpose - not just show. Cheers to whomever gets this well...

We have four kids and had similar needs / wants. I’d like a cab over but couldn’t yet do an EC Core build. I found a quad cab c5500 former mobile command unit. (Build thread here in for forum), you can see what I came up with also on our IG @wehartstravel. He’s been reliable and comfortable so...

Generally these mounts have a removable hoist. We have a similar rig and have a roof mounted hoist. @wehartstravel

Wow really nice find.

I modified a truck bed hoist. Eventually I’ll custom build an aluminum gantry : hoist instead to save weight. Also a reversing strap winch (meaning you can crank both directions without flipping the switch. I used mine a lot during our recent drive to Guatemala when our wheels began to fail...

I ended up finding mine on FB marketplace. I used four across the back of our c5500 expedition rig. If I see one I would always ask if they had more. I did find an upfitter doing builds for Ameren IL I think in Springfield IL… can’t recall the name but maybe watch around there.
