So this is my build thread. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
:thumbsup:


The goal of this truck is to be my daily driver as well as perform off of the pavement. I want a safe, reliable, fun rig that I can pile in the family and head out on an overland adventure, fishing trip, camping etc. Or meetup for day runs to wheel and BS around SoCAL.

While I appreciate, respect and admire those who cut and slash their rigs for extreme rock crawling, that isn't the idea for this truck. The attempt is being made to avoid any cutting any part of the truck (hopefully and CMC chop excluded)

More coming soon. Will be upgrading to a hard shell RTT, more armor (front and rear bumper) and some kind of roof rack. Then I think she will be done, although are they ever done?

Upgraded my sleeping situation with an iKamper Skycamp 2.0

Also added Frontrunner Roof rack Slimline 2. Was a toss up between Frontrunner and Prinsu, but FR just have WAY to many add-ons. Added water, plano rifle case and wolf pack storage.

Tweaked the water hose with some added ball valves. Thought I would need a pump or something, but it turns out when between the tank being up high, and the added pressure when going up elevation, the tank has been pressurized on its own. Huge improvement on quality of life having 11 gallons of water.

Added a propane bottle and holder. Super secure on top, doesnt budge.
