I suppose it's all about what the intended use is, and how it works in your situation. I don't plan in living in it. I just want to be able to sit up in bed and have a comfortable place for my wife and I to sleep. FWIW I've never owned a tent I could fully stand up in either. I can stand up if I...
Looks great! I also ordered one and installed it last month. I still haven't had time to build out the inside. I think it checks all my boxes for being usable, secure, easy to setup/breakdown and stealthy. I love the idea that if I want to go hiking for the day I can just lower it down and lock...
I feel like I could have written this thread myself. I went through all of the research over the last 6 months, ended up purchasing a month ago a 2020 Supercab XL FX4, but it does have options like carpeting (which I could do without but the rubber floor mats are pretty nice) and Copilot 360. It...
I would imagine if you soaked the wood and put something heavy on it you could straighten it out. People bend plywood when making skateboard ramps by soaking it I believe.
Cool build. Wouldn't be hard to modify some 2 door windows with extra fabric to make it work but I'd like to see it finished off. Any pictures of the completed interior? Why eliminate the rear doors instead of just doing some half doors back there?
More info on this Jeep? Looks like half of a JK8 but with a standard 4 door soft top? Are there custom side windows for it? Interesting build, never seen one like that before.
Excellent write up, as are all of the ones you do. If you had to put a price on the labor involved, do you think it would be reasonable or cost prohibitive? I don't have the skills currently to tackle a job like this as I've never worked with fiberglass before so I'd want to start with something...
I would love to be able to get out like you do all the time! excellent photos. There just aren't many places around Florida that are photogenic and unpopulated. Everything here is private property.
Personally, lookswise I think your larger Donaldson looked fine on there. I would have kept that. I liked how it was wider than it was tall. Seems proportional to the size of the Jeep and intake. You mentioned that it sits above the roofline, but all of your options do. The Syclone doesn't look...
I'm so jealous of wide open spaces where you can just pick a spot and deploy camp. There's nothing like that here, its all private property or a campground.
Oh I didn't realize this was such an old post that got bumped also. I've had my water tank for a year or so now. I ended up buying the "Aquabumper" kit from Jeep Karma. It wasn't too much more than pricing out the parts separately and it was really convenient to install.
If you carry a passenger, or a large dog,a full tank of gas or have an aftermarket bumper you are adding the same if not more weight. 70lbs is a very small trade off for water on demand. Besides, it's not like you need to have it full all the time.
Grecy why are you interested in these wheels? If you are circumnavigating Africa I would focus on eliminating possible breakage points, not adding more. Spacers should be a non-starter.
