Yup :D
I figures that'd be the most affordable way to do it.
For a year I was running a rear adapter spacer but really didn't trust it.
And I was right! On my last trip to Utah I lost a rear wheel while cruising at 60mph on the hwy. Luckily my wheel didn't hit anyone and I figured a way to...
It's an Hellwig, pretty sure it was for the Econoline. I had to drill the end holes wider to modify the mounting style. I'll get back if I can find pictures.

Thank you guys and sorry for not responding sooner, paying job is getting in the way! But not for much longer, only another 6 weeks then I retire and can finish this project! (Or leave it as it and travel right away, lol)
I have yet to install the air ride seat. Still have other projects to...
Rear sway bar is kind-of a must for our rigs. I only put one one my 1st ambo after 4yrs and still can't understand why I didn't do it sooner!

It is heavy, maybe 200-250lbs but the piece I cut off was a good 150lbs so not much of an overall issue.
On a side note, I hit the scale yesterday and was around 12,500lbs.
5000lbs front axle
7500 rear axle
Currently in Salt Spring City (or nearby town). Good trip!!!

Thanks to all of you guys!
Glad to realize it's not too much of a monologue, lol. I guess the comment came from another thread on this board ;)
How about a last update for a while as I'm heading out on a roadtrip tomorrow...
Here you can see the bed platform in 3 positions. 1st position is...
Allright, the monologue continues for a final push;)
Still a few things to complete but it's finally useable. Since I don't really feel like listening to myself today I won't elaborate further and will just post a few pictures instead, lol.

A bit late in the chat but I agree things here don't seem to be as interactive as they used to be. On my first Ambo build thread I had tons of people jumping in with questions or suggestions. On my 2nd ambo build thread sometime I feel like I'm talking to myself, lol. And the 2nd build is even...
A little more every day!
The poptop is now secured to the truck via a 62" long stainless piano hinge and close to 80 stainless bolts and rivnuts! Once I was satisfied with the fit I covered all the nuts with a 3" wide Ethernabound tape. I also sealed the inner frame with Sikaflex sealant and...
The top made its way up! She ain't light, lol. I'm guessing close to 250lbs but I can easily walk on it without any issues. Still need to secure it in place by installing the rear hinge, mount the electric actuators, paint (battleship gray), put back my two 330W solar panels... but it's getting...
