So awesome to see these pics so many months later. Don't know how I missed this thread! We just announced our 2024 dates, can't wait to see everyone again, it's like a family reunion for us!

So stoked to follow this Andrew! Going to be an epic trip! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So, this ad is from July last year, I am assuming it is long gone?

Cool! Are you guys coming to the NW Overland Rally? I'd love to see one in person. www.nwoverlandrally.com Cheers Ray

No, we opted to go with the Habitat as a roof top tent because I didn't want to cut a giant hole in my roof (Defenders already leak so much, why tempt fate). Plus this way I can shift the Habitat to my RRC in the future if I want to. I access the tent entrance via the hood. Cheers Ray

Despite the name, the Overland Rallies are not a traditional rally, they are 3 day gatherings or festivals of all things overlanding, where one can take classes, make friends, check out gear, and win prizes. Because of that, the individual threads for these shows are listed in the appropriate...

Rather than build your own Defender, consider buying one from someone who has recently completed a long overland trip. The resale value will never equal the cost of building one, and this way you get one where all the unexpected problems have already been taken care of. I imagine that even with...

I had a small wooden platform the same height as the back seats when folded, and a thin sheet of additional plywood that would slide forward to cover the rear seats. Two thermarests on top of it all. Easy to set up and cost virtually nothing. Comfy double bed. Lots of room for gear under the...

How did they do? I haven't been paying attention for a few days so I need to catch up with the results, we have so many friends in it this year. I think my wife may do it next year. :-)

The three Overland Rallies that are run by one team are: NW Overland Rally (Plain WA) BC Overland Rally (Whistler BC) Rocky Mountain Overland Rally (Gunnison CO). They all happen in the summer months as they are family-oriented (kids off of school). Each has their our website, and they open...

I am getting some rubbing at full articulation with my 235/85R16s. I am thinking of trying a fender roller. Have you considered that? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Very nice. 107inch Series 1 pickup I believe.

In 1957 a couple of unknown young Canadians decided to drive around the world doing field research. They bought a 1957 Pilcher Ambulance bodied Series 1, called it the Grizzly Torque, and set out. Now no longer young or unknown, Bristol Foster is a famous naturalist and ecologist, and Robert...

I used to run MTs but I realized that I spend most of my driving on roads (paved or dirt) so an AT was more appropriate. I carry a set of chains when going somewhere really muddy. Chains on an AT are impressive in mud. But only use them if you really need to otherwise they will chew up a trail...

Is it a manual? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I run ARB lockers front and back in my 110. As you know, they are a pretty tried and true solution for the Salisbury axle. If you have the budget, why not? Also it’s a universally recognized upgrade if you ever resell the truck. And you get onboard air. In no way am I saying it’s “better”...

Can you please show some shots of how you mounted the 2nd row seat? Any challenges fitting it? Thanks!

Damn. That is brutal. I am sorry to hear about all the stuff that sucks. But I’m happy to hear you are alive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Fantastic, the Previa is a great little van, and actually a lot of fun to drive.

Hi All, I have decided to change out the hydraulic winch on my D110 (200tdi) to a Warn 8274. I have two batteries already, but I am still running the stock (I think 40amp?) alternator. Does anyone know of a straight-swap (drop in, holes align, same plug, pulley, etc) alternator upgrade, like a...
