Awesome setup and I love the Tepui gear!!! So bummed they are no more :disappointed:

love the truck! what rims are those?

The truck is in pieces. Waiting for some parts to come in before I install the new exhaust manifold and 4 barren intake manifold! Before I took it apart though I hit the trails one more time with my buddy who is a photographer:

My buddy got this awesome shot of me and my truck in front of Mt. Hood!

Yeah figure organization and taking my time will be a big part of it. You think a 600 cfm holley would be better? or any other recommendations more "bang for your buck" style carb? the 390 is just too pricey for this project

haha I appreciate that! Def will be taking you up on both of those at some point. You know any good trails out here? I stumbled upon one fire road "L-1200A" (i think) which had an incredible view of St. Helens! Also be warned...going out into the hills with me in the truck...well it always...

Ah i love those Broncos! Its not easy running the classics out there and its a stiff ride haha At some point im going to need to do something about that suspension so these roads dont shake the car to pieces but its been good to me!

Exploring the endless WA Fire Roads in my old school F-250. I'll be the first to say...this thing needs some smoother suspension...along with a thousand other things. BUT as they say...the best overlander is the one you have. And for $900 this thing continues to amaze me!

Well with my move having been completed, most of my time (and money) has gone to home renovations. However, behind my girlfriends back I have also been accumulating parts. I have purchased a 4 barrel intake, and I have a newer model exhaust (common modification for a 300 I-6 of this year. To...

Oh yeah a set up like that would be awesome! Ive definitely tried to find ways of making that work but im afraid my welding skills arent good enough to do that myself. Funny enough whenever I think of going on trips I always forget about the inevitable grocery story or walmart run on the way...

Yeah thats what I figure. So was trying to gauge what peoples thoughts are on the pros and cons of a flat bed mostly since Ive never had a flat bed myself. I keep my gear in big plastic tubs usually. I figure I could strap down to a flat bed and have extra space to work with if i needed...

Hi all, I am at a point in my build where I am deciding which way I want to go. What do you think is the best for the trail a flat bed with a bunch of Tie Down spots or a Medium sized truck bed?

This is awesome! lots of good info! I'll definitely look into the dual shock and coil set up because rough roads and mild offroading is going to be mostly what i do. Id just like to do it a little faster than I can right now with some more comfort haha I've only done my old Mustangs...

Likely stupid questions haha What else would need to be upgraded with Radius arms? Does that take away the need for leafsprings? Id like to rework the suspension (on a budget) just not exactly sure where to start yet.

Yeah ive got 33s on it now with very minimal rub. But once i get a new truck bed and make a new front bumper ill be shaving the fenders to fit some bigger wheels. Eventually ill get a slight raise too. But its good to know that 35s will fit without a raise!

Oh should also mention. THE BEST camping coffee I've ever had is made by a company called "Verve". They make a portable 'dripkit' starts at $3.50 a kit and gets cheaper the more you get. So id say its on the high end of the price spectrum for sure but if you want to treat yourself you won't be...

I was at REI with my refund being tempted by everything when I came across this. Its made by "GSI Outdoors" and its a french press/mug in 1. You just press the coffee and drink straight from it. What got me was the $16 price tag and my girlfriend doesn't drink coffee so i got it. Just took it...

I got a $30 Cast Iron Dutch Oven from walmart. and I love it! Haven't done a TON with it yet but just this weekend I made some great group nachos and a pizza. The hardest part for me is getting the perfect temperature. But its a learning process. I wont show the finished product of the pizza...
