Added a Rhino Rack to the Topper. Their RTV Track and 54" HD Cross Bars. The cross bars are located over the intersections of the framing below, assuming this will be the best to bear weight of a RTT, since I will be going that route as well as a camper build out. Also, added a black bumper...

Joined the X2 Power Club. I will still be doing a second house battery in the back that will keep my fridge and general lighting going. My current thoughts are, if I want to run a winch, I can just pull it from my starter battery and not worry too much. Then I can go with a cheaper Deep Cycle...

Just got my ARE DCU Installed. I went with their 4x4 Reinforcement option which added some more gusset plates. This is now my quarantine project. First step is starting my drawers for the back. I plan to go with an RTT as well. I want to insulate and carpet the topper, and will use it if its...

Added Demello Sliders, RCI Front and Fuel Tank Skid. Also got a great deal on some Icon SIx Speed Wheels. I ended up going with some Goodyear Duratrac 315/70/17 that I found on Craigslist as well. I wanted to try them as I loved the Falkens but couldnt use them on the 17s. I will probably switch...

Front suspension install. I ended up replacing the Lower Arms since I had to cut out the driver side due to rust issues and seized bolts. As I did a water pump swap on it (Bought with 154k miles), as it leaked, I went through and replaced all the hoses and ended up swapping to a Koyo...

The day I bought it. Crappy Firestone Mud Terrains and a spacer lift. It also came with a good amount of rust that I found out about later. Ugh! I then replaced the tires with Falken AT3Ws. I really liked these tires and will go back.

Thank you! There was a lot of interest in it, and as I'm trying to figure out direction for my YouTube channel, I thought tech type videos would be helpful to some.

Thank you!!!

Exactly. Rotopax look great, but the cost and sizes just don't make sense right now.

My dads cousin used to build his chassis's back in the day haha.

:********:

5 Gallon metal cans vs 3-3.5 gal plastic. I wanted to be able to carry 10 gallons. Normally, Ill just carry 1 for fuel and 1 for water, but for trips needing longer fuel stops, I wanted to be able to have that supply. Rotopax didnt make sense for me.

Thank you!!
