I'll get some measurements and post them. I think the main issue would be the segment on the width at the end of the van (between the first and second bend) and how that compares to a 4runner or similar vehicles shown in most the photos. Cool design, regardless!

the real question is can you help with the interior toys that alucab has become famous for. Looking on what options are available states side to outfit the interior of an overland rig. Specifically water tanks, drawers and storage.

Not only do we have the drawers in stock, but we will be installing troopy roof conversions in house for a few clients in the near future! :)

Any Alu Cab accessories I can add to our next order if you are interested.

As requested, some more detailed shots of the Shadow Awn setup. I setup the awning enclosure in our showroom so the photos are somewhat limited angle wise. Also shot on an iphone so forgive the quality! :)

Hmm you guys should try marketing the awning/ room to the Triatholon folks too. Looking at that set up I know a few gear nuts that are full nutz about Triatholon events where that set up would really fit their event gear needs.

This thread has the most up to date info on Alu Cab in the US period. You are in the right place. You are talking directly with OK4WD.com here. They are who imported this gear.
They are working on posting more info, pictures of the side panels...
Check out their website.

We are working on the Alu-Cab USA site currently and also the addition of products to our OK4WD site. The product line is vast and covers more than just North American vehicles so it may take a little time before all products are up and running here.

Yep, i figured all of that :) I just need to know if i can stop dealing directly with ALU-CAB regarding what they have available for 1990 LC troopys. Their website is not the greatest as they do a ton of custom work, im looking for interior pieces like water tanks, the short and tall drawers and other bits and pieces that i need to bring the troopy together. Ive got a few drawings in sketchup and will probably be looking at the pop top conversion next year. Having someone states side will definitly speed things up

Hello Rino,

Do you have any pictures of the Alu-Cab Gen 3 Expedition Tent mounted on something closer to a Land Cruiser? All I could find was a small picture of one mounted on a Jeep, which frankly looked a little oversized for the vehicle.

Thanks


p.s.: Hope you will be at Overland Expo West with one of these?
