I'm finished with my 80 Series Build!!!

OBTW... the truck looks great and you did a very thoughtful, purposeful build.

Thanks again Kai, its been an absolute pleasure helping you out with this build.

As a note Kai has been an excellent customer to work with. He didn't wait until the Cruiser was 'done' to get out and use it, quite the opposite, he heads out on trips all the time and then comes back and decides what else fit his needs, really the ideal way to build a rig.

Nice build.

Is that a fuel line on the side of you Aux tank? If so, I would like it hanging so low.

Yes, It's the fuel line that transfers fuel from the aux tank to the main tank. It's pretty much flush with the tank. Not much likelihood it will catch on anything.

How sturdy is that gas tank, seems to hang a little low. Would be fine for most but I clang my bumper off of rocks all the time. I've been thinking of doing something like that in the person but am scared that I would completely bust it within a year.

Awesome truck by the way.

Sweet build write up and truck! I have to agree with your statement about when you can remove the 3rd row seats. An absolute necessity for a truck as nice as yours will be a fridge and storage drawer system in the back. A fridge is SO MUCH nicer than hauling an ice chest!!!

The gas tank appears to be pretty sturdy. It's not that low, but I have managed to bang it on rocks and dirt occasionally. A few scratches and gouges, but no structural damage, even after one pretty good scraping.

I don't really do serious rock crawling, just rough trails, riverbeds, old logging roads, etc.

I do have a fridge (ARB 50) It fits nicely in the back with the 3rd row seats tipped up. I keep it in place with a ratcheting strap and my tie-downs. For storage, I use a combination of 3 Bundu Boxes, and assorted soft sided bags (Bucket Boss). A drawer system with a fridge slide will definitely be an upgrade, but not having one hasn't kept me from staying organized or bringing along the stuff I need/want.

Do you have any photos of this? I'm looking at placing an order on some bundu boxes and would be interested in seeing it.
