Awesome work right there buddy. Would be great on the river. Bookmarking this. Been using this Behrens drain pans, two of them, for a fire pan setup camping and on the rivers. Multiple configs, side by side for larger parties. One pan for coals and cooking, the other for fire. Put rocks under...

Thanks. The big one: enough room where you can leave your bedding up top?

I don't get all the hate. More work for more space. Still infinitely easier and faster than a ground tent. Whatever. Seems to be constructed well. I see so reason why it wouldn't hold up. Wind gets bad enough drop the roof. Same with other designs.

Love this build. You guys should produce these commercially. There I said it. GLWTS

She's a beaut. Care to share the shop name?

Absolutely gorgeous rig and a screaming deal for somebody. Maybe the best deal on Expo right now. GLWTS! Is this a gasser or diesel?

Well this thread was an adventure. No clear way to communicate with the poster. Responses every 3 weeks or so. Well done.

You must like paying sales tax.

You've hit most of the pros and cons. I'll ad that a hard side is so much quieter. Especially for urban camping. Or in campgrounds the the ever present buzz of generators and SXS maggots. Limits where you can go. Weight is higher up so more sway. Also not garageable.

Drool worthy project rig. And yes, that drivetrain is worth the price alone. Love the underappreciated 8.1 Vortec. Absolute beast of a motor. I'm probably worse at project truck than you so GLWTS.

Friggin love that rig. Classic.

Sounds like you've got a very heavy rig. Front locker can be very valuable. With that much weight you can prevent damage to your rear dif, drive lines and pretty much all of your running gear. It also allows you to go slower and not need "momentum" over obstacles. Spreads the load out. Not much...

Rad project. Love those old Cummins trucks! Love that you brought this one back to life! I'll be following along for the ride.

Nonsense. You are being obtuse. Other than your rather dismissive post: "624÷320,000,000=?%. CO death paranoia is low on my priority list." "Anytime someone mentions the word propane, everyone suddenly dies all the time. The guy wants to heat some water - not run the car in the garage and take...

I can't believe there are people in this thread saying "just go for it" when it comes to running a 30k BTU LPG burner in an enclosed space. That irresponsible and stupid. And I'll call it out every time. Don't do it. Period.

World record for sale thread resurrection. Well done.

Huh? I guess if somebody wants your wheels they will take them. I've driven more than a million miles over 30 years and never once had a wheel stolen. There is no security solution for wheels. I have super singles. My spare isn't really secure. If you're worried then I'd say park your truck inside.

Wow. First I've heard of that. Thanks for the heads up. I've read MRAP wheel have a bead surface compatibility issue with MPT tires. Also I don't want 41s any more. Much rather have 37s. Do you know if there are any 37s that would fit MRAP type wheels?

3 inches per side seems roughly correct but I'd have to pull a tape on both axles. The Wide Track Super 60 isn't the same beast. Tubes/shafts are much bigger along with the pumpkins and brakes. The u Joints are huge and grease-able. Way bigger than the previous axle. People use the term Super...

Ford switched to the wide track S60 in 2005. Dodge when they rolled out the 4500/5500 series, which has never had the narrow track. That truck is a 2008 so it has the wide track. This convo is bass ackwards from what we usually see. More power to you, but the wide track is a sacred beast because...
