So glad to see that.

That set of switches is pretty cool, are you going to mount them on a pillar or anywhere on the center console? Do they come with some kind of a plastic surrounding to fit nicely in a custom cutout?

Looks good and good to see I’m not the only one making mods. How do you deal with rock chips? I have about the same setup including sliders and my doors are still getting peppered.

Thank you. As far as chips go, I don't really care. I bought it with the intention of being a solid overlanding rig and planned on the exterior getting beat up

Got the skid plates mounted to find out the transfer case doesn't clear the OEM exhaust (Nissan issue) and had to cut up and mod the gas tank skid (hefty issue) for it to fit. I need to make 2 - 1" blocks for the rear 2 gas tank skid mounts.

Finally got the alignment done after swapping inner and outer tie rods. Also got the e brake pads swapped out as well. Dropped the sliders off for powder coat, should have them back this week.

And finally, built my winter heater in a box with a 5kw diesel heater. This is about 80%. Have a 5L gas tank coming.



Also... Winter is coming ?

Really impressive work. I'm especially interested in that diesel heater as I'm thinking about installing one in my teardrop.

They are super simple once you get the hang of the electronic controller. I will post updated pics today as I got the new diesel tank

Did you see the video?

Heater worked flawlessly in the parking lot for 2 hours!! The local power sports store does a everything in stock 50% off sale, so I took advantage lol.

Got my sliders back from powder!! Very happy with the results!

Got a new toy delivered out of Washington, so things will slow down for the Pathy and BMW... Have a lot of wiring, suspension and interior work to be done. With it along with snowmobile season, it's going to be tough... But was stoked to get it. My father had a 68 Roadrunner when he was a kid; what can I say, I am my fathers child.

Stellar addition to the stable. Nice buy.

Done a lot of snowmobiling up at Vail, but found I needed the HD lift springs. I decided to go with Ironman due to the difference in manufacturing (shot peened) over ARB/EMU. And I figured Chris wouldn't be too mad for not spending $119.99 at nisstec ;p

The picture of me towing below is still on the old EMU springs. Will post a pic once these new ones settle and get an alignment.

It's been awhile!! Just a couple pics from end of season, loaded for moab and a nice shot on poison spider.
