Added the rivet for more support. I’ll drill the holes for the mounts later today. I need to move my tent forward to install the awning mounts now. So far so good. Great idea for the mount!!

Very Nice, looks like there coming together.

Well spent the entire day in on the road and in Southern California. Picked up and installed my newest mod.. New drawer unit for the cargo area of my 4Runner and my new Power Tank. This is the newest company to start making these units for Overland vehicles. This one is one of the very first drawer units (Prototype), because I am now a brand ambassador for them. It is made by BOSS Strong Box, out of Rancho Santa Margarita California. It is made of 16 gauge steel, a partitioned single drawer unit that has a large amount of storage space. The drawer is lockable and had 250lb sliders. The best parts of this unit is that it comes in at 110 lbs and under $1,000.00.

Haven't been on for a little while, was at Overland Expo West and then we did a 4.5 day trip to Moab, Canyonlands National Park and Colorado. I took advantage of the deals at Expo and picked up some great stuff.. Spent the last couple of days installing the following items:

Great looking build! My wife and I are in the hunt for a good daily driver/overland rig. What kind of MPG are you getting with all the extras added on there? The only thing keeping me from committing to a 4R is the MPG - I've heard it gets a little depressing once you add on the extra equipment! Thanks for such a detailed thread, this was a blast to read up on.

This is true for ALL overland builds no matter the platform.

I get 18 if i drive like there is no more gas left in the world. I get 17 if i drive like i want.

Difference is the 4runner offers the undeniable reliability that few offer. This gap is closing but for me the biggest driver.

275 BFGs and full roof rack.

Yeah, the wife let me get some stuff that I had really wanted for a long time! Had to ask her “who are you and what did you do with my wife.”
