    1999 Expedition Cheby Tahoe - MA

    Thanks!! This truck treated me well...14k mile overland trip across the highways and backroads of the US...3mo living off the grid. We were fortunate, not a single broken part on the truck and got to run some really fun trails and meet amazing folks along the way.

    Massachusetts. It's a 4dr Tahoe, so two bucket seats upfront, then bench seat in the back with three seats.

    1999 Expedition Cheby Tahoe - MA

    This is for a heavily modified 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe, built as an Overland vehicle. This truck was sponsored a few years ago for a 3 month expedition across the US, covering 14k miles. Unfortunately I no longer have the time to wrench on it, but it has been an extremely reliable and enjoyable...

    BatteryMinder - Solar

    Ducky -- I had a similar concern over the lower voltage ans charge profile in general. The solution from Bogart engineering that Diplostrathe published seems to be a really good option. I spoke to the guys at Bogart and they are going to update their manuals to include the profile for Odyssey...

    BatteryMinder - Solar

    Thanks Diplo --- great website by the way, I've already read one of your documents. The BlueSea ACR is a beautiful piece of 500amp handling hardware. All of the heavy power wiring I leverage is either 0 or 2ga, very flexible wire I grabbed from an audio wire distributor/manufacturer. So far...

    BatteryMinder - Solar

    Agreed dwh on the temp sensor. Given how powerful a variable like temp is, it's surprising how few charging units take this into account. I just came across the ctek 250S dual while playing around this morning. Anybody run one of these or can comment on the pros/cons of their charge/maintain...

    Happy New Year folks!! Currently tinkering with the Overland Tahoe again.! For the past 6yrs+ I've been running the same dual Diehard Platinum (Marine Deep Cycle) through a Blue Sea isolator. These Odyssey batteries have been pretty badly abused, yet desulfated every few months. Some abuse...

    Chevy Hydroboost Conversion

    It will be great to watch this develop!! You may already know this, but just in case... the Master Cylinder is different for a truck with rear drums versus rear discs. It's a quick swap, but just some food for thought as you source your parts list. You will see a huge improvement in...

    Chevy Hydroboost Conversion

    When it comes down to this mod, IMO there are a lot of angles to attack it, but there's always a safety concern...especially for highway trucks. As an example, Chevy / GMC makes three different hydroboost systems that I'm aware of that produce different pressures at the caliper. Each of these...

    Chevy Hydroboost Conversion

    Here's a link to all the parts and parts #'s. I don't think the part #'s will match up for you, but it will give you an inventory idea. http://www.gmc4x4.com/topic/2599-hydroboost-conversion/?hl=hydroboost For your truck, I would simply find a hydro truck of the same year as your truck. I...

    Custom LV416 + Extras

    This trailer is currently in NJ, but it can be delivered throughout the US --- do not hesitate to ask. I recently used this trailer on a 3mo expedition across the country and it performed flawlessly, provided the storage we needed and was the perfect size for pulling offroad. I'm sad to see...

    '99 Tahoe - Expedition Build!

    I had a set of custom shackle mounts made for my ARB bumper. I am VERY impressed with their quality, welds are spot on and it was spec'd perfectly. I'm using all Grade 8 hardware, don't mind the two different size washers currently on there. This is where they are going
