A forum thread my rig finally belongs in!!! $900 1980 Ford F250

Build Thread for my Budget build:

$900 1980 Ford F250 - Budget Build - The best overlander is the one you have

A 'clunk' in the front (left?) of the truck every-time I come to a complete stop. Don't have a chance to look today but can't stop thinking about it. Im thinking a bad bushing in the steering or control arm is the likely culprit. Hoping you guys can provide some thoughts so I can assess it...

Haha, det er jo ikke lange biten fra Moss til Sandnes :wink: Noen turer/ treff planlagt for sommeren?
Better keep this in English I reckon - my rig will be ready within a few weeks now (hopefully) and I'll head out on a shakedown trip in southern south-Norway. Going to visit a buddy in Haugesund. Let me know if you know of any good (legal) places to overland and camp in this part of Norway? Or places to avoid now with the 100 year floods coming up. Or wanna join me for a day or two.

As much as I love to see fully fixed up Tacoma's, 4Runners, f150's ect. I am actually more interested in the not so typical rigs.

I Myself have been contemplating for over a year now doing a small build on my 2006 Mariner Hybrid AWD. Mainly because it gets 30mpg and I because its just plain different. I did see an article way back of a Hybrid Escape (which is basically the same thing) doing the Mojave RD.

So lets see them!

Just completed a video of a one day trip on and off road to a few places of interest here in Southern Arizona. Thought you all might find it interesting. The trip started in Hereford, AZ, then to Tombstone then a ghost town called Gleeson, and finally in the Dragoon mountains at Texas Canyon, where many western movies in the 40'-60s were filmed including Roy Rogers and The Lone Ranger.

Finishing up my Titan XD. I wanted to put Bilstein adjustable front shocks and remove my leveling kit, so less point of failure, also it might better alignment.
