We actually bolted the front and back with rubber pucks to give some flex. working good so far. We were strapped for space so we don't have a pass through into the cab.

Had some time on the weekend to put down vinyl plank on the bed and finish that off. Next job will be the Headboard/footboard cupboards then I can finish the corner trim. Also got a driving light bar installed on the front. It will go onto the big bumper when I build my MOVE bumper this summer...

The other thing to think about is putting your bed over the cab. Mine isn't as tall inside as I'd like but it works. If I had started with a taller box truck it would have been perfect. There's another fellow here that is notching the front of his box truck cube for the over cab portion. Mine...

Thanks. It was actually a pretty good base to start with. We've spent 13 days winter camping since Christmas and it's been Awesome.

I've never seen an 8 bolt trailer hub so keeping the same wheels might be a problem.

Overall Height to the top of my roof rack is 11 1/2'. I used a single stage paint with a self etching primer and its holding up great. All the windows are just take offs from wrecked holiday trailers. Instead of mounting them the normal way of just a press/sandwich hold with screws through the...

Ya that's crazy. Going to try and drop my fuel tank and install the line for my Webasto coolant heater.

it's -41 here today, and has been/will be -35+ since the weekend, and into next weekend so my "working on the driveway has ceased. Did you do your cut out fender flares yourself? That's on my list closer to spring when I can work outside again.

I got it from Cubic Mini wood stoves. ps://cubicminiwoodstoves.com/

I hear ya. We have even less solar up here. I haven't been using much power in a day though, just a couple led lights. With my little wood stove the furnace only runs about a half hour a day. Fridge and stove are on propane. I only have 300w of solar and was only making 70 watts yesterday...

Do you have your solar and house batteries hooked to your road batteries through an ACR? My solar set up has been working to keep my road batteries right topped up. My 7.3 needs all the cranking to get going especially in the cold.

You can check out my 550 build. There's a link it my signature box. I used an old Uhaul box.

Built some proper steps. These hang on the back. Two spring latches fasten then under the door.

Wow, you had those adapters shipped a long ways! Are those the Aluminum MRAP's?

Are you in Alberta by any chance. Those look real nice. When I get my fenders cut out I want to stop in to WCR and try some out.
