CrewMax Overlander

did not drop the headliner except for the corners to vacuum out the drill shavings. yes, i just wound up using the plusnuts. feels really stable to me and i don't plan on overloading it too much.

 

mavic pro. i'm new to it as well. have only had it for a couple of months. then of course, they release the mavic2 last week with a far better camera.

 

Here’s some info on headliner removal. I’ve dropped ours five times now.

I started with a pro, like the air better(not a photographer). It is however very noisy. I plan to pick up the 2, definitely don’t need the better camera, but my intent is to use them for property/building inspection, so need a back up. This may be worse than Tundra parts... Probably releasing a new one right now...

 

Came out looking great. I would love to do this since it opens up the ability to mount a solar panel up there. Got my simple solar system worked out. Now i need to figure out where to mount it.

Keep up the great build!

 

that's exactly what i want to do

 

Superbumps showed up today...

 

Out working the BBQ and the friendly neighborhood guy in brown just dropped these off...



@sdhq_offroad thanks for the quick ship. Wasn’t expecting them for another couple of days.

 

not seeing them on SDHQ website..asking for a friend..

 

They must have screwed up the postage again. That was supposed to come to my house

 

They are there...

 

Funny how that happened

 

I am here to help my friend

This build is nicely done, very well thought out. Great job @smslavin

 

Bump stops and shock hoops have arrived...



Thanks again @sdhq_offroad

 

King doesn’t make a bumpstop?

 

Yes but I couldn’t justify the price. The TC kit with Kings was significantly more. The Camburg kit with Kings required drilling in the bed for clearance which wouldn’t work because of the drawers. So, Icons.

 

how hard is that? i don't want to pay a shop

 

Way easy. Two bolts to get the caliper off. Change the pads. Pop the rotor off. New rotor on. Reattach caliper.

I had to use a bolt to push the caliper off but I have no idea what size it was. I had few randoms laying around and just tried them all until one fit.

 

interesting. did you do you fluid too?

 

quick question: which AWG did you use for door speakers ? about to update my audio thinking 14awg

 

no, i didn't change the fluid

yep, 14 to the doors, 12 to the sub.

 

Bed rail extinguisher mount from Rago.



Yea, I probably could have made my own for way cheaper but, I have some other Rago stuff and it’s top notch. Plus, I like supporting them.

 

I just spent an hour in the library going through this rather than writing a paper due tonight.

I love it. Giving me so many ideas, among other below the waist situations.

Wish I had the knowledge to do all that work on my own. Could save so much money. Really want to do switch pros, but would rather now pay someone to wire it up, but i certainly haven't the slightest clue.

Cheers man!

 

New shim stacks have arrived.



Compression side is .02” flutter stack and the rebound is a .015” stack. @sdhq_offroad thanks for tracking these down.

Almost time to make a mess...

 

arg.



now i’m going to be like this all day...

 

btw, can i please be a cool kid now?



thanks for the stickers @boardude.

 

Are your Deavers the u748 or k37 with extra payload capacity?

 

748s but, at least in my case, the extra capacity is non-existent. for me, they started going flat a few months ago which put their life span at less than a year. they might be okay if you're constant, full time weight is not that high.

now that my secondaries are arriving today, i'll be heading over this week to get the truck weighed. once that is done, i'll be calling alcan to have custom packs built that will handle the weight.

 

Oh yeah I am stock weight basically. Just tow a boat occasionally and have my camping gear when I go out!
