    Yes I can Thanks @twiget Yes I can weld, but as far as the shop......well.....I would like one of those too. I have a 25 x 28 garage with my kids project truck in half of it. Essentially I have my driveway and a 8x10 spot in the garage. I guess the point is....you don't need a lot to do a...

    I agree. If I were on sand and needed the flotation I would run the 12.50s but I am not. I actually feel like the 11.50s are able to get down to the hard stuff better.

    Leveled in the front, airbags with 8 psi when not hauling. To yo MTRs 285/75-18, bassicly 35×11.50's. Can't go real big cause I do pull a smallish travel trailer, and occasionally my backhoe that sits at about 17k with the trailer. I want to run 37's but would have to regear. Not sure I want to...

    Man, I have been going back and forth for months on which tent I wanted to go with. I really, REALLY, wanted to be able to haul my canoe and bike. This really narrowed the options. I didn't even know cvt was an option because their website didn't list a hard shell. Then I found a guy on CL that...

    Well, I finally committed.....I pulled the pin on a CVT Hard Shell Mt. Saint Helens. I am so stoked to get this rack done so I can take a trip to Bend to pick it up at the CVT Shop. There is not a lot of information published the interwebs. In fact, it not even on their website. I bought the...

    I ordered a set of the Maxsa Traction boards and they arrived today. When I made the rack "windows" I planed to mount the traction boards in the opening. Because I am a little impatient I built them before the boards arrived. I am glad they fit.

    Over the last couple weeks I was also able to finally get my Switch-pro installed. Found a nice little spot under the hood.... And as many of you know, there is not a real good spot inside for the switch panel. I am also tired of having a bunch of randomly placed suction cup mounts. So I...

    Today I was able to get the window sections bent up and welded. I also finish welded the upper horizontal bars to the rear bar. Also shot some paint on it for the week so it won't rust. These are the lower supports for the window sections.... And as it sits tonight...

    More progress today.... Got rear bar fabbed. Made some captured nuts to mount the upper horizontal bars. Took the advice of @mylilpwny in regards to making this double as a roll cage. Mostly due to my wanting to get it done. And with the upper bars tacked and bolted.

    What kind of trips are you doing most of the time....Rough terrain, single day....or...more mild terrain during multiple day trips?
