Posted a couple pics in a couple threads but wanted to start my own. I’ve done soo much to this truck already so I’m going to do a time warp kinda deal. I’m humbled by the amount of work others have put into their rigs!! I will start of with a before and current pic. Then I’ll try to get the history in order. Thanks Smash.

Ok, I am going to keep up with this. I’m interested in the interior upgrades. I want to see what you have done.

On the inside I removed the passenger side rear seat( narrow one) and replaced it with a piece of 3/4 plywood. It’s bolted to the same hinge that the seat had so it pivots up to reveal storage underneath. I put our cooler there so that it is accessible at the side door. At the rear behind the wheel wells I made aluminum panels with removable wood tops for parts and tool storage. In the window cavities i made wire racks that hold luggage for clothes and keep often used items handy. I use straps and snap clips to retain other items to the racks.

I took out the long side. So, how does the stuff in the windows holdup to heavy rocking and bouncing?

Just tinted the rear windows and made wire racks for blankets and towels to fill up those spaces. I have a back up camera mounted up top so no need to have to see out those windows.

That’s pretty fantastic...until you need to hammer and pry. But still, very slick.

There’s a hammer on the other door. The Cresentpryhammerbar is my go to tool when someone on the trail asks me to help fix their truck.

Ok, I see that now. I snicker when I see that, cresentpryhammerbar. It’s still awesome.

I have a 55 watt renology solar panel on the truck with a charge controller and 2 house batteries. My panel mount i designed lays flat for travel, extends up at an angle and tilts side to side to help track the sun.
