I was wondering if you adjusted your icon for more height. I have the same as yours. But your front looks higher.

Since those pictures it has actually been adjusted down 1/2 inch, and I have added sliders.

Any way you have the measurements for the Box build?

As far as the video goes etc. It looks like we'll be putting together some kits that are CNC cut for people to purchase... (this is one option and the other will likely be blueprints and cut instructions). This is a lot of work in the making...

Also I'm selling my stock XREAS suspension and roof rack if anyone is interested...

Did I pass you on 17 last night heading from Santa Cruz to the bay? If not, some other guy's cramping your style!

Yes you did! I was headed back from working on this...!

Dual Battery System Has Been Added
  • Hey Guys, I found a local fabricator who was able to make a bolt in Dual Battery Tray out of aluminum for the 4runner, no modification required for install.
  • I figure there may be some interest for others to order this, if so please DM me and I will see if he will make more!

Here's the newly updated budget :eek:

The new battery tray looks good. Did your dual battery kit come with wiring, or are you going to have to custom fab some battery cables?

Got some 4 gauge welding wire that should do the trick. :wings:

As for the battery tray I will discuss costs with the Fabricator and keep you guys in the loop!
 
Alright guys, after about....
10 computer crashes
2 blue screens of death
500gb of data moved
200 clips recorded
3 hours of footage
30+hours of editing, and about 8 months of editing delays....the video from my Big Sur trip is FINALLY done.

We camped during "El Nino" along the Big Sur Coast, and had almost 20 inches of rain in three days. :Wow1:

This isn't some "epic adventure video". The goal was to show how fun and easy it can be to travel our fantastic state, and try to encourage others to do the same- no matter the weather.

Please SHARE, LIKE, & COMMENT on the actual video!!!! :elkgrin::wings::)
THANK YOU & ENJOY!
