Just ordered a couple of these weatherproof cable entry plates. I will eventually remove the sharkfin antenna on the top of my cab and install these for some nice clean wiring for lights & antenna! The sharkfin is for Nav/Satellite radio, neither of which I use. Might as well take advantage of...

May the Fourth be with you! Haha!!

Thank you all for the phenomenal tips! It's looking like I will be able to avoid this frigid option though. I think I've found a place which is affordable and will be available in a couple weeks! HOWEVER, I encourage everyone to continue this thread. It's a valuable topic to discuss!

Hahaha! They're actually not all that big in person. Only 6 feet wide!

I think we can agree on all that, haha!! I've also decided that when I pay off my truck, I'll be working towards buying a Pinzgauer 710K (hardtop version). Will be the ultimate overlander/camper/zombie-crusher! :grin:

I just pulled that image from a quick google search haha! But there's lots of options. You can always find a local shop to fab something up for you, and make it exactly how you want. ...This is getting off the "new-member" topic though, so you may want to search around the threads here for...

Another option is a mid-height bed rack, so that an RTT mounted on top is flush with the roof of the cab.

@XplorinMegacab & @c.r.e.weaponry ... Welcome!!! @XplorinMegacab ... Just a thought on RRT/storage: you could keep the roof rack and put an RRT over your bed.

What kind of trailer did that begin life as? I've been looking around for cheap trailers in need of restoration, but having trouble finding frames that seem overland-suitable.

Damn. Hope insurance has you covered!! And I hope those punks shoot themselves in the foot (figuratively or literally, either one is fine by me)

I'm fine with the idea, I just don't have the money to buy one right now.

I agree that lightweight gear is always good to have. But there are some things that should NOT be "lightweight" by any means!! Hand tools, pry bars, Hi-Lifts... I would never even consider a lightweight version of such critical items. I will take the high density, high strength of a beefy steel...

I'm watching like a hawk for 54,321 miles :grin:

(Admin please move/delete if this is not permitted) Anyone in Colorado looking for a decent trailer, there is one in Greeley for under $5000, fully built. THIS IS NOT MINE, I AM SIMPLY SHARING THE INFO! https://fortcollins.craigslist.org/tro/5825049176.html We have decided to sell our 2010...

I have a set of Toytec BOSS coilovers for a 2nd gen Tacoma. 650# coils, with about 75,000 miles on them. They would be great for a budget build, or sending in to Toytec for a rebuild to have a brand new setup! I will post up pictures this weekend...

I am planning out my dual battery system, with the hopes of getting everything purchased over the next year and installing during the winter of 2017/2018... I had always had this impression that OPTIMA was the battery brand above all others, but lately I hear that they are terrible? What...

That's a great tip! Luckily, it looks like I've found a new place to stay... Rent is a little more than I had been paying previously, but it's a MUCH nicer place. Just need to come up with the money for deposit & first month's rent, on top of paying the rent on my current place... :-/

I CANNOT "LIKE" THIS POST ENOUGH.

... I'm quite certain that is illegal. For the customer AND the bartender/owner.
