I did, and was told that the rear bumper wasn't discontinued, just not in stock. It hasn't been in stock for at least 6 months. There is either a supply problem or they do not intend to continue selling it. If I knew who to call, I would try that route. February 2024: It just disappeared from...

I've been looking but haven’t been able to find anything. I guess I will have to expand my search to include Craigslist, etc.

I have a 2018 JKU (JL Vin #) and was hoping to kit it out with all AEV parts. It looks like the rear bumper is discontinued and I don’t want to mix and match, so I guess I will have to look elsewhere.

I had a bit a chuckle with this. I've lived in Japan for over 20 years and a かんばん（看板）is a billboard. So a Kanban Board is kind of like saying bill-board-board. In other words, BAN means board. Don't fret, the Japanese do the same thing all the time with foreign languages. Nevertheless, your...

Sorry to hear that. Based on the photos and video it seemed like it would be more than adequate. I would like to build something as close as possible to the original Turtle but I'm having problems trying to figure out how to attach it to a Ram 5500 and still maintain the original lines, i.e...

I've been following along with your build. It's really nice and seems to fit the bill for what I would like to do in the not so distant future (currently in the design phase). Can you elaborate on the sizing of the tubing for the subframe (2 x 3 ?) and what size/strength that you used for the...

Found what I was looking for finally. It’s in roughly the middle of this video

Thanks, I’d greatly appreciate it. I’ve looked just about everywhere on the internet but can’t find much info with the exception of Expedition 7’s website and one article on here. Most of the other links seem to be broken. I even took a look at AT’s website but couldn’t figure out how it folds...

I'm trying to find some information on how the bed platform functions in the LC 78 that Expedition's 7 used. I have searched the internet and cannot find an info. Does any one have a idea of how they were able to use a seat in the back and still be able to fold out the platform for sleeping?

Just want to add my 2 cents. I'm currently living in Japan and found a parallel importer that can order new direct from the middle east. I can order a VDJ78 with the V8 diesel in beige or white, but neither of them have the DPF as standard. And the interior is either tan or brown. He is...

Great find. Thanks! I've come across quite a few Gelandewagens for sale here. They're a dime a dozen in the Tokyo area.

I`ve been lurking for a long time trying to figure out what would best suit my needs. I`ve been following this thread and have a simple question. I live in Japan and the PUR and Professional versions are available here. With the idea of purchasing one vehicle and planning to keep it for no...

Sirocco, spot on and I think that's why he's decided to move on.

Thanks, that's what I needed to know.
