Over on ih8mud there are a few Toyota dealerships that offer a substantial discount on EOM parts forum members. Next time, I'd go with OEM. I'd call American Toyota @ (505) 823-4440 and ask for Dan. He's the parts manager.

Thanks for all the advice.....put on the E rated Michelins - smooth quiet- camper ready. An excellent site for tire reviews is www.roadtraveler.net , he's a member of this forum and posts great information about tires and all things associated with "Overland" style travel.

Thanks again guys. Hopefully I will get some good years of service out of it.

I think it's great Jack. I really enjoyed Fordyce, especially the water crossings.

Wow, that is nice! Thanks Nathan. I'm usually writing that to you with your write up.

Love the multi-carrier, I want one so bad!!! I was looking at something similar from tactical Armour Group but they get such bad reviews in regard to customer service <_< CBI has great reviews. I have two friends that own local high end fab shops and I was really torn about not using them...

Wow! Looks like Stainless? Your design? Looks functional. It is very nice and I'm sure it was a bit of a cost. There seems to be different configurations, I see a (hitch?) ball in one pic. ~DR Thanks guys. I wish it were stainless, but its regular mild steel. I took pictures of it...

I made a quick trip to CBI in Idaho this last week and had him custom build a new rear bumper for the Super Duty. I thought you guys might like to see another available option for the full size market. Enjoy.

The TJ looks great with the high fender kit.

I can only echo the accolades the others have stated. Wow.

We're heading up in late June and spending a month driving around with our FWC. I can't wait.

Diesels often have 2 batteries in parallel to get the extra cranking power they like to have. I believe the Dodge diesels are that way also, but they are not physically located together so have a fair amount of wire loss during starting. The Dodge hemi version uses the 2nd battery mounting...

Sorry I'm late to chime in, but ARB and Engel both make hard mount wiring harnesses for their fridges. Hardwire kit http://www.sierraexpeditions.com/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1043 And a posi-fit kit. http://www.sierraexpeditions.com/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1001 There are also...

I don't have a Ford, but are your under hood batteries wired in parallel? If so, then it does not matter. You might have a spare fuse position in your main fuse block also. Else attach a breaker or fuse close to your chosen battery. Thanks, I think they are in parallel. They are however...

Hey guys, I'm wiring up my Hawk to my 2001 Ford Super Duty 7.3 liter, which came from the factory with dual batteries. Which battery do I want to pull power from for the 12 volt aux power in the Hawk? The Hawk is a shell model, so the only option inside is the 12 volt outlet. Thanks

Thanks Stan. It is much appreciated.

Is this normal... My Hawk is one inch higher at the cab end of the bed than at the tailgate end. Is this normal? 2002 Hawk with a 2001 SuperDuty. Thanks in advance.

Post lots of pics... Whats your final destination in Alaska?

Nevada has been getting a lot of good attention lately with good reasons, I love living here. Nice write up with pics.

Congrats on the pup, maybe we'll add coyote to your name... I'm trying to plan our first trip to Baja. It will be with the wife and kids also. I was heavily swayed to wait until Feb and go see the whales. It's reassuring to see others taking their little ones into the country. Thanks for...

Yeah, there's a ton of room with a ute bed/flat bed and a side door.

In my Eagle shell I will be making them as narrow as possible, that is about 18'' with my SMEV hob. I'm very familiar with your build idea's. I think it's pretty much required reading for anyone even contemplating a slide in pop up style camper, or any camper/trailer set up. I'm going to...

I am trying to figure out which route I will ultimately go with refrigeration. Initially, I will use the ARB 45 out of the princess's Land Cruiser, but I would like to mount a bigger fridge either from Engel or National Luna. I'm thinking about a custom fridge slide (With the fridge mounted...

How deep are your cabinets and countertops?
