I just picked up a 148 Transit to build out into a camper van. I am picking it up in NJ and driving it to UT sometime in the next 2-4 weeks. I'll be doing a "bare bones" build before driving including insulation, power system, and a bed in the back. But will have a decent amount of space...

Will be departing SLC on July 18 for Pawnee, OK. From there will be traveling up to Owenton, KY. From there I'll be heading back via St Louis, KCMO, Denver, and finally back to SLC around August 10. I'll be in a GX460 with a little bit of cargo room. The gas costs will be significant so happy...

For sale or trade: DV8 bumper for a 2014-2021 GX460. Bumper is brand new in the box. I decided to leave my GX stock. It's a badass bumper though. Best looking one on the market, IMHO. I'm located in Basalt CO, but delivery to Denver this weekend is possible. It is packaged in 2 separate boxes...

This is a pretty solid testimonial.

I'll look into the OME stuff. I've seen their name posted about but haven't done much reading. Good point on the training. I went to Offroad Skills Camp (3 day offroad training) in UT last year which covered a broad overview of skills including a 1/2 day spent specifically on recovery, but I...

Yep, great points. I have a Viair inflator already in my drawers, along with a 30' kinetic tow strap, toolkit, survival stuff, some hard & soft shackles, a snatch block, an E-tool shovel, and Sven Saw. Once I get these sliders on I'll be getting a hi lift. Just have to figure out where to mount...

Thanks for the input. I agree, if there's some nose dive with 100 lbs, it will definitely be more severe with 175+ lbs. I think with your anecdote, I would probably expect to have significant nose dive and actually get some bump steering potentially if I hit a pothole. Great point on the...

I live in the mountains in CO. I frequently go exploring on the forest roads around here solo to seek out backcountry skiing and rock/ice climbing objectives. I don't wheel hard or seek out obstacles. My goals are mostly targeted to being able to self recover if I slide into a ditch when I'm by...

Mid summer bump

Welcome! Nice rig. Looks very similar to what I'm planning. Are those still stock running boards? Hard to tell from the pic.

That's pretty odd. I've called them a couple times over the past couple weeks while planning out an order of sliders and other accessories. They picked up every single time I called on 2nd or 3rd ring. I always called during normal business hours. If you don't mind me asking, how long did it...

Bump, still looking.

I have a memory foam mattress and bed frame in Rockville, MD that I am looking to get to Salt Lake City. If necessary, the mattress can be vacuum packed and rolled up like a rug. The bed frame is simply the 4 rails which can be disassembled. No headboard or anything bulky. It's probably...

Actually picked one up already, but thanks for the link!

SOLD SOLD SOLD I have a like-new IceCo JP40 12V fridge. 43 qt. They have German-made Secop/Danfoss compressors like ARB/Dometic and the other high end coolers but for half the price. Has a 5 year warranty (unlike 2-3 yrs from other companies) I bought it 3 months ago and have used it for...
