Canada tightens restrictions for Alaska Highway travel from Lower 48 amid reports that Americans are misbehaving
Only five Lower 48 border crossings will be open to northbound travelers after widespread reports that Americans are trying to bypass Canadian quarantine rules.

That’s awesome!!
Keep us updated.
I’m working on a a Kodiak and am interested in any insights. I’m looking to do the Front air ride and similar rim and tire setup.

Make sure to check in with Cowpig (https://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/members/cowpig.183642/) as he has air suspension on his C4500 and has run a bunch of different wheels.

Appreciate the offer, as of now we are planning on shipping the truck down from AK to Tacoma, with the canadian border shut it doesn't seem feasible to fly and drive it back.

Yes its adventures_with_oso, but I don't think they are very active on social media.
I probably start a thread here with any minor changes we make and experiences we have, might bug you about Kodiak stuff too.

Quick update, shipping and driving the truck back to salt lake went relatively smooth. I broke the bed system on the first day (left the locking pins in when lowering it ?♂️) was able to repair it on the road though. the cruise control AC needs a new control board which cruise n comfort is sending us. Hopefully it fixes the 12v ac we are looking forward to using.
We are very pleased with how the whole deal went and constantly in contact with the seller who is amazingly supportive!
Will post future updates and adventures on a different thread / instagram (TBD)
