Howdy all. Just picked up a clean '00 3/4 ton 4x4 Suburban to start a mild camper build on. It's got the 6.0, rear hatch, a bit bigger tires than stock, and a nice aftermarket stereo.

I've got a '08 Toyota Sienna that we've been camping out of for several years (more on that build). Basically plan to move over as much of that build as I can, and adapt where needed. We're not looking to get too extreme, just want to explore areas that are more rustic than I feel comfortable taking the Sienna into.

Just here to find ideas for bed/storage systems in the Suburban - it's longer than the Sienna, but narrower and shorter, so we'll have to adapt some things.

Greetings Mike, welcome to Overland Bound!

Howdy,

I'm Richard from sunny Jacksonville FL, nice to meet you.

Got a 5th Gen 4Runner TRD Offroad (Sound familiar? lol)

Brand new to Overlanding, but when I was younger, I had spent a lot of time out on the trails in SW FL playing in the mud on a Brute Force 650.

Excited to get my feet wet, and start adventuring around Noth America!

Hey all!
I’m James and I’m from Spokane, WA. I also spend a good amount of the year in Idaho Falls, ID.

I have a 2002 Toyota Tundra that I’ve been building out to be a capable off-roader yet still keeping it a reliable daily. So far it’s got upgraded suspension and brakes, coastal off-road front bumper and some light upgrades.

I’be been overlanding for a couple years now so I’m not 100% new but I have very little experience on harder, rockier trails. Looking forward to being more active in the community this upcoming summer!

Welcome to the OB family!

As someone on the East Coast who only dreams of some of the big west lands, would love to know where all you’ve adventured to so far? Any favorites areas or trips??

Bill Stephens from Wyoming.
Single owner of a 1978 FJ40 I bought in Cheyenne, WY.

Totaled it out in 1991 when I hit a 1991 F350 dully and totaled it out also.

Would not let it go and drug it to PA and back to Wyoming.

Started working on it and am repowering it with a R2.8 H55F and split transfer case with 3:1 low range.

FJ60 rear axle with a full float disc brake conversion, Big brake kit on the front and high steer.

Just install the FJ105 power steering box.

I am active on I8MUD:

Builds - Rebuild of Trusty

I`m surprised Yerington even has a hospital. Hope it wasn't serious and glad you made it home. It was not very big, but I had a white blood count of 25 so they took me to the ER and I spent the night and couple more days resting in the hotel room until my Brother Ubered from the Reno airport on...
