I went to OME868s due to rear load. I'm curious to see how she sits fully laden.

 

[flyingwil]

How much is it going to settle?

Not sure, we'll find out though. I'm hoping for the 2" mark. Still need to throw in the dual batteries, up front, which will add ~100#, wiring and all that.

I think this is the first I have seen your new rig Wil, very nice.

 

[flyingwil]

Thanks guys... That reminds me...

I added a Panavise in dash mount to mount my GPS. I wired the external antenna on the cowling next to the wipers, and routed everything in to the mount.

Here is the mount itself:

Mounts using the factory bolts:

All done:

Here you can see the external antenna:

Had a chance to play with the Ironman suspension a bit too. worked very well.

Those mounts are nice, have used them in two rigs.
Currently using one for the Yaesu 857D faceplate.

Would love to hear your report on your ironman tent...

The Ironman RTT is really nice for the Mombasa line, one of the better ones I have seen in comparison to the ARB, CampingLab RTTs I have used. The ladder is the same as the others and the material seemed to be a bit thicker than the ARB.

The mattress was a bit firm, and the cover had a double redundant fastening system; the zipper, and bungee system (like the Zifer Overland). Overall I was pretty pleased with it. It is now residing on a customer's Tacoma.

New RTT going on tomorrow or Satuday. This one will be the Howling Moon Stargazer.

Hooray for breaking out of the 255/ 85 mold. Love it.
