    Very nice, thanks for sharing. I definitely need to add mud flaps for extended back country driving and wider more aggressive tires

    Rare 7.3 Powerstroke Expedition Build / FWC Hawk

    I agree with both of you that the 6.0 is another great truck with numerous upgrades over my era of truck. There are so many great options from Land Cruisers, Land Rovers, Jeeps, Tacomas, Sportsmobiles to Unimogs. I love reading about all of the builds and seeing all of the different rigs...

    Mounted Thule Sonic M Box on Yakima load bars. Wow that is high up even when camper is in the down position. I plan on carrying my Jackson Kayak up there as well. Now I know why Colin from WakeTheDeadDiaries always had a tall step ladder in their photos. I am 6'4 and need a ladder. Headed out...

    Chris at Rocky Mointain Four Wheel Camper did an amazing job with a custom bracket to mount rooftop Zamp solar panel to slide along Yakima tracks. In addition, a very through setup and install of the Hawk on my truck. Set my airbags at 45 psi to maintain stock ride height. Adjusted rear tire...

    The next step - go to Denver to Rocky Mountain Four Wheel Camper and get the Silver Spur Hawk model installed. Chris has been super helpful. The Hawk is fully loaded with every option except interior cassette toilet and interior shower. The only thing we need to add is solar. We are getting...

    Rare 7.3 Powerstroke Expedition Build / FWC Hawk

    I did some research on tires and I also spoke with Colin at WakeTheDeadDiaries. They ran the same tires on their round trip to Panama. He said a couple other overlanders they met on Pan Am ran the same tire. We ordered 5 Cooper ST Maxx in 285x75x16. The Bilstein shocks were installed at the...
