    The Nomad 1994 80 Project Car

    Too much work made me lose a lot of off-roading opportunities this year :( and with temperatures rising it will be difficult to go on long trails. On the bright side, this means I get the chance to take the Nomad and repaint / fix the body. I got 4 donner doors to replace the ones I have...

    The Nomad 1994 80 Project Car

    Extremely challenging dunning for our last Rally school trip. What an amazing experience! Needless to say the collective knowledge of veterns including Dacar driver and rally pilots was invaluable. Trully the more you know, the more one learns of his ignorance. The 80 series is trully unqiue...

    I couldn't engage my 4 low on the last trip, upon inspection the arm holding the transfer case bolt came loose. Got it sorted and tightened (with out brining down the whole thing thankfully!) and re-fitted my serviced winch (which i did myself). Hopefully it doesn't blow up in my face, now i...

    Changed tires and reduced size due to scarcity from 285/75/R16 to 275/70/R16. I will lose a little traction on sand and a little clearance for more civility while traveling. The old tires where getting stiff due to age along with very loud noise and low traction.

    An amazing trip with some off-roading legends in Egypt (including an X Dakar rally driver) in Rally School. Much to learn from every one with years of experience under their belts. Some of the GoPro footage, have much more (enjoying the process of making videos XD) Extremly beautiful terrain...

    Couldn't find proper shovel mounts, needed space for camping wood so i did this fugly abomination to free some space. I'm slowly figuring out what trully need and will adapt accordingly. I will move the roof rack backwards so i can fit a bigger solar panel.

    So took a plunge and enrolled in Rally school. Figured it would help improve my non existent off road skills. What transpired was 2 days of utterly difficult trail! Rock climbing, dunes, soft sand, hard sand and quite a lot tricks and challenges! I pushed the car extremly hard (and aside from...

    Its the sand, I experienced 2 distinct types so far. Small dunes much like very small waves the car's suspension has little time to travel so its just a series of small bumps creates vibration like effect. The 2nd is sand with gravel that sinks small stones create a very bumpy ride. We do slow...

    The dunes are extremly tough vibration wise, had one cable connector lose. I can imagine how much this contiunes vibration will cause issues. I will need to probably look at proper tighting and maybe a thread sealer. I lost some bolts i had installed on roof rack because of vibration (and me...

    Table fitted under roof rack, will need better locking mechanism and some way of keeping table from vibrating. Got water proof connectors and will rewire lighting to have a quick release water proof connectors. I am still looking for a quick release idea of lighting. Solar panel was great too...
