GreenvilleOverland GVL OVR Fourwheel Pop-up Camper Build

This is how Daisy sits for now:

@BashFab armor, skid, and bumpers
Dobinsons heavy 2.25” lift kit
Apex winch
Custom passenger rear seat delete with always on 12v outlet
285/75r18 Falken Wildpeak at3w
TRD pro bbs forged 18” rims
Oem tow mirrors
FWC Raven shell
Alucab awning

 

All in plans for a Four Wheel pop-up Camper Raven Shell model, which should be ready for pick-up in March. Planning an alucab shadow awn 270 deg awning. Already have a passenger side rear seat delete where I keep the fridge and yeti 400 goal zero.
Plan is to do some extended back country camping with my wife and daughter.

 

Looks great! How are the CV angles with the Dobinsons? Any Boot rubbing? They look similar to OME but slightly shorter. Thinking of possibly going with their full set up for my next set.

I like the logo you did! I especially like that you added the three of you in it. Makes it more personal and cool!

 

Thanks for the kind words, my wife designed the logo. I am not sure about the boot rubbing, will have to look into that. Very satisfied with the lift so far.
Been looking at 285/75r18 tires already. Really need to wait until these wear out first!

 

This is the only photo I have of my cv boots. Can you tell if there is any cv boot rubbing by this picture?

 

Ordering the Alu-Cab shadow awn 270 degree awning from Ok4wd. They are giving me $100 off for Cyber Monday, happy about that!

 

Got the Alu-Cab awning and it is waiting to be installed on pickup day (unknown time in the future).
After it bothering me almost everyday since the lift I ordered 285/70r18 Ridge Grapplers! Was gonna go 285/75r18 but this didn’t follow my ethos of “close to stock.” The size I ordered weighs 60lbs versus 70lbs. None of the sizes I was considering are frequently in stock. And when talking to the installer he quoted “those will fit better, won’t totally stuff it.”

 

This picture helped me decide. Along with the actual 275/70r18 Falken tire measuring 32.25”. Think the RG will be closer to 34”

 

New rim reveal in 3...2...1...

 

We shall see, ordered 285/75r18 Falken today!

 

Also just found out pickup date will be in May. Wife has Memorial Day week already planned off!

 

Upsized tires today for Daisy! 285/75r18 or 35x11.5. They didn’t fit at all with the 1.25” spacers I bought. But we are gonna be good without them. Will update once install is complete.

 

No rubbing on the way home, measure 33.5x11.5 freshly mounted. Tread area similar to 275/70, but tire appears much taller and bulges more. Had to massage the spare mounting tabs with a hammer for fitment. Overall happy, now just need to sell the other set. Probably need some fender well shaping, but nowhere near cmc or bumper shim/cut. Aftermarket rims or the 1.25” spacers would have required more modification than I was willing to do.

 

Will try for better picture soon.

 

looks good! definitely need some shots down the side to see flushness with fenders.

 

Here ya go!

 

that looks great!! thank you.

 

She’s a 2019 and the pin stripes and minor scratches are already adding up. She’s still a beaut when you wash her up though. First good light to take pics since the new tires.

 

Re-measured the Falken Wildpeak AT3w today 285/75r18 today at 40psi after a bit of break in. They measure 34.25” tall and 11” wide. So it’s a true “tall skinny”
I do have minor rub on the front sway bar and rear mudguard at full lock. Gonna try and shape/cut the mudguards today. Shape the front fender liner, then go off road and see how it does.
The tires feel substantially larger than they ever look in pics. I can only imagine you guys with true 35x12.50 how large the tires must look in person.
One thing about the setup is it’s definitely an optical illusion because my wife didn’t notice the new tires until she stepped out! Haha. Also noticeable when loading Hazel my toddler. Think the fact the tires really tuck in, and the 18” rims look so small with all the sidewall play big parts.
I’m definitely happy with my choices so far, as part of my ethos in this build is to stay “close to stock” with the considerations for changes being that we will be back-country driving and camping. I don’t want to ruin my nice new Tundra by adding modifications. Only thing making my ride rough right now compared to stock is the unloaded Timbren shudder. They ride smooth when loaded.

 

You should look into bumper spacers to push out your bumper in lieu of cutting/shaping fender liner, etc....

 

There’s honestly been no rub on the fender liner at this point, and the rear mud guard/sway bar where it has rubbed so far wouldn’t be affected by this mod. If I wanted to go bigger and or decrease offset I’d consider the bumper spacers. If I have major rubbing when I take it off road I’ll also consider the spacers.
Thanks for alerting me to these. I see they are relatively inexpensive.

 

Is there harm in using a heat gun and rolled football on the front liner? Hopefully I don’t burn a hole in it!

 

Modified rear mudflaps. Going to see how my clearance is off-road before modification to fender liner.
