Introduction of myself and my build

[Rob Bradish]

Hello!!!

Not so much Overland right now as oversand at our NC Beaches on in the Stateparks of Northern Florida.

I am an old guy who has no intention of rock climbing or things like that, just likes to get out. Purpose built as a daily driver first, we started with a Basic 2016 Nissan Frontier, SV 4x4. First Rule is , if I can't do it myself, need to really access why. Upgrades include:

2" front and 1.5 inch Leveling kit
FireStone Airbags (I tow a trailer)
RearAxle breather mod (vital on Frontiers)
Bilstien rear Shocks
Fold-A-Cover tailgate lid
Rhino Rack track on Roof with Racks
Bat-wing 270 Tarp
BFG 265-75r16
WeatherTech mats
K&N Drop In Filter
Line-X bed
Nissan OE Skidplates (hey, it's just sand)
oh, and a JB Audio Sub Woofer because the car has no bass

Equipment
Bushwacker Air Jack
Compressed Air Cylinder for top-ups (130ft3)
First Aid Kit
Shovel

Next steps include
Maxx Trax
Slide out stove and kitchen (1/2 of bed only, slide out tray on other) (Home Built using Starboard)
Considering exchanging racks rails for a platform
Considering changing the Compressed Air Cylinder for a Compressor
Seriously considering a snorkel (they just LOOK Soooo Cool!)(wishful)
Seriously considering a rear locker
rear bumper with Tire carrier (wishful)

Welcome to the forum.

Thank you all for the replies. When I edit, the picture is still there, which tells me rights have not yet been updated along with my membership information. Hopefully, everything will show up then.

Hi Rob, and welcome to the Overland Bound forum.

You're not old. I have a younger brother older than you. ;) If you are anything like me, you think of yourself about 20 years younger, except on the mornings after doing something you haven't done in a while. :)

I've gone in to edit your first post to make the photos visible, but there are no links whatsoever in the post, nor any attachments. so if you are seeing photos, they must be local to your machine.

As far as the above login problem, it is being worked on by our admin, @Michael

I'm glad you've found us. There is a very diverse group of friendly, helpful people on the forum. I hope you enjoy it here.

Really strange. If I select edit, from either my work laptop, home laptop, or iPad, I see the photo. Could it be that, because I am referencing a link from another website, it isn't passing to people that are not associate with that site? Hmm, time to test!

 

[Rob Bradish]

Sorry it took, so long folks. The other link was not open as I thought it had been.

What NC beaches are you at?

 

[Rob Bradish]

Pick one!! Actually, I tend to go south, Oak Island and Fort Fisher. Topsail with certain runs!

 

[16rav4_project]

I'm from Wilmington and have a fort fisher annual pass. I live in Charlotte but go down there every month

 

[Rob Bradish]

That's so cool. I am just learning about beach driving, haven't even air down yet! I live in Clayton and we used to have a house on Oak Island. gave it up when the second kid started College!
