Are those the new X-Bull mounting system. If so how do you like them? How are they in quality, as their price is cheaper than most kits.

I drove it around some of the biggest trees I have ever seen

Working on fabricating a 180 degree awning and a shower/ toilet for the trailer. All DIY from scrap yard materials. Built the framework from square tube steel the hinges from some round tube steel and some c-chanel. The shower will be mounted in a gun-case. Once I finish fabricating the framework, I will take the rig to a local tent maker and have the awning skinned and a shoer curtain made. I have about $30 in metal from the scrap yard and guesstimate the awning cover and shower curtain will cost me @$300 for both. Still a significant savings over retail pricing for an awning and an overlanding shower stall.

Any advice on the awning? I’d like to fab my own since I don’t have a rack on my topper. I have tracks, but still have to fit in the garage.

I am building this one. Good luck on ordering the bag. I have been trying for over a year now.
Now that I’ve decided the design, I’ve strarted to skeletonize where possible. Maybe i should open a 3D in the diy area.

its SOOOO hot here in the swamps that i'm doing good just getting outside, let alone trying to go on any trips anywhere. as a result, the tundra has been reduced to a 'grocery getter' along with its regular trips to lowes for honey-do materials.
today was one of those days....

I'm ready for the grass up here to turn brown and stop growing. Usually starts late July. We've been usually wet so far this month though.

I added some LED OEM Style Taillights and I bought an Outback Adventures Tailgate Table that I'm waiting to receive so I can add that to the Jeep.

Installed an Iceco fridge slide this weekend on my DIY gear platform I built a few weeks ago. Next up is either a cargo shelf or a cabinet over the fridge for additional storage.

It took a couple weeks...but, finally got the bugs worked out. Everything seems tight and no rattles.
So, far, pretty happy with the LOD bumper.
