That's perfect, thanks!

Really nice build! Do you have a link for that auxiliary fuse/relay block?

The 2" lift looks great! Any reason you got rid of the Rock Warriors? If you sold them, would you mind sharing how much you got?

Yeah, I really like it so far! Thanks for the offer for the Yakima towers - let me do some more planning and I'll let you know if I could use them. Thank you!

Great build and looking forward to seeing more adventures with the Habitat! Regarding the Yakima tracks that you put on the old camper shell, did you ever adjust the towers forward and back? If you were to redo that setup, do you think the single point Yakima towers would work as well, or was...

Planning: I'm working on a way to make a budget style camper setup that is along the lines of a GFC or OVRLND camper. Needs / Wants: - sleep 3-4 people - this makes a soft shell tent which doubles in size when unfolded much more applicable - relatively cost effective (hence the desire to keep...

I bought a 2008 Tundra to replace my 1997 Jeep Wrangler. It's a 4x4 SR5 in Nautical Blue Metallic. I was originally on the lookout for a first gen Tundra, but I was having a hard time finding one with timing belt maintenance records that I actually trusted. That and the huge backseat that...

Any more pictures of that front coilover setup? Also, any pictures of how low the Blazer tank hangs down?

It starts, idles, and runs really good, but I don't notice a huge difference. Everything worked before, just wanted to upgrade while I changed spark plugs so I could gap them correctly. I'm thinking of working toward a MSD box to complete the ignition system as the factory ignition (duraspark)...

Thanks! It was fun to piece together.

Well, finally an expedition-style update, instead of just basic (boring) maintenance: a roof rack! It's made up of some Quik-N-Easy gutter mount brackets I got off Ebay, some aluminum extrusion from 80/20, and some oak slats. I wanted a functional rack, but still fitting with the classic look of...

Update time! The Wagoneer is still around and getting some new parts, just slowly. I finished the TFI system, and moved onto the fuel system. I decided to move to an electric fuel pump to help prevent vapor lock and to expedite cold starts. First I dropped the tank, cleaned out all the sludge...

Great to see you doing another build - the first one was amazing! Any idea what that center console is out of? It looks almost like it came from the factory like that!

I know you ended up with Gabriel Guardians, but I saw in some posts on fsjnetwork you were leaning toward Bilstein 5100s in the 255/70 valving? Did you ever figure out that valving? I'm shopping for Bilstein shocks in the universal lengths and I see 255/70 or 170/60 as valving options. I know...

Well, I’ve neglected to update this for a while… There has been a lot of thinking about this build, and some definite changes. My wife and I found out we are pregnant, which was completely unexpected, and we are also moving soon. So that has put the budget and road trip on hold for a while...
