That looks amazing. I feel your pain dude. I spent three weeks on and off making my first rear quarter. Then threw it out and did it's replacement in an afternoon. Yours matches very nicely! If you ever have to drop the tank it's not the worst thing in the world. Maybe the 2nd worst? I had...

Just got word from AUS post... My gullwing window just cleared customs and I should see it maybe mid next week! Finally! The duct tape rear quarter window was getting old. My Cruiser Company lift up window was expedited by the great folks at Long Range America.

Ah crap. That sucks man. Int'l shipping is sometimes the only way to get what you want. When you don't end up even getting it then, it really bites. You will eventually end up with something awesome when you're done with it, as always.

I wouldn't read back either ! Lol. Post turbo.

I did that especially for you Charles. :rofl: I was going to throw in some miles and km's too but forgot. I keep thinking of switching the EGT gauge to °C, (Auberins digital lets you use either one) but I like the broader range of Fahrenheit. I haven't put my boost gauge back in action yet. I...

Purists, you might want to skip this one. You've been warned! So after sitting on the parts for a month or two, today I cut a big hole in my hood! I'm aware of the merits of an FMIC. But I didn't want to crowd the already narrow front end with yet another radiator. My cooling needs are at...

Pulled trailer and kayak. Even went up some hills. Pure decadence...

The flip down jacks I added are much better than the landing legs. . Even if the level of the ground falls away I still have plenty of extension to reach it without stacking levelling blocks now.

I know it's been over a year since you posted this and the rig is gone... But I just wondered how you liked the scoop? I'm shopping for one but worry that, in pics at least, this one (one of the few that will ship to Canada) is too big. How'd you like it in person?

Another wolfbox update: I swapped to a 6 inch arm and that allowed me to put the mirror exactly where it needed to be. Visors clear and can swing through their axes. (Yep my visors are lumberjacks.) The anti glare film showed up today but I'll wait a bit and see if necessary. Also... Went...

One last update. My direct mount came today. I removed the stick on style arm mount entirely. Then I modified the back of it so I could bolt a standard RAM ball on instead. On the other end I bolted a ram ball where the OEM mirror used to bolt. (I had to make one new hole in the ram base so I...

->10 inch screen. The 12 inch doesn't fit between the visors. Just back from a test drive. Depending on the day, I think I have discovered a bit of an issue. Because it's semi-reflective, there are times when you see the reflection and the image at the same time, which is a little bit off...

The Wolf box 930 is now fully installed. I haven't used it on the road yet but I'm happy with what came out of the box. Getting the wires from the mirror through the headliner and down the A pillar was not a lot of fun. I used some nylon line to fish the cables where they needed to go. There...

Began installing a wolfbox rear view replacement mirror/cam today. Thankfully it's happy with 24 volts so I didn't have to get creative with my house battery and relays... I got the 10 inch version and it "just" fits. Meaning it doesn't quite fit. There's a tiny bit of rub as the visor swings...

When I was on my trip in May, I made contact with a Canyon wall. Not only did it take out my rear wrap around window, but it also left several dents just under it. I'm currently waiting for my Cruiser Co gullwing window, but the dents remain. So I decided to try some home PDR. I started on the...
