Excellent!
There's more to come, but I'm sick of fighting Tapatalk's photo uploading problems for now.

I’m following along too. Great job on the build and the documentation.
I had an Alaskan build thread here several years back, I too felt at times that I was posting to a vacuum

Alrighty then.
After a grand misfire and a great weekend, I stayed away from that damn IH. We were in time-out, needing our space.
Around the middle of June, I got the push I needed to solve this fuel problem in the form of a crawfish boil at my BIL’s mountain retreat in Rollinsville, near the divide.
Thinking this problem might be with fuel flow rate, I swapped out the (not so) old 30 gph pump-
For a new 55 gph one.
I packed some clothes & some beer, and set sail for the mountains, fingers crossed.
First camp spot:
It was kind of a nightmare because I had to dig some pretty good holes in the driveway to get it near level, and I didn’t sleep real well worrying I was going to roll back down the driveway into the neighbor’s living room.
Still, it was a win because I got there & back with no fuel-related issues at all.

Next was a little trip to Overland Expo. Some cool rigs to see, interesting merch, but it didn’t really feel like the place for a shade tree-engineered rig with redneck overtones.
One thing I did get a kick out of:
My house wiring “hub”-
The one on a converted rescue truck-
Some rigs that caught my eye:
And this one, because it’s no more than you need to get out there:
