    The super slow build thread of my 2021 LC HE

    Fellow DFW 200 here. I've been following your build and enjoying the evolution as well as the dialog on your thoughts about each change you've made. I was curious if you had the K9 set up still and would be interested in letting it go? If so I might be interested in purchasing and giving it a...

    Events/Trails OFFICIAL LCDC 10 Thread

    Very excited to be talking LCDC again and like our last one in Fort Collins this will be towards the end of a much longer adventure so we should be seasoned enough to lead a trail if needed. Looking forward to seeing everyone again.

    35s in stock spare location

    I keep my spare underneath as well and just put 5 new Toyo RT Trail 285/75r17 (33.9") tires on this week. If I had 18" wheels I certainly would have gone to the 295/70r18 (34.3") and even with a pan hard correction bracket I'm convinced I would have cleared everything. I do like the 17" wheel...

    I wanted to follow up on my Victron system with some setup instructions I received from Victron on how to utilize my on board charger. A couple of notes to understand the situation so this might be useful to someone: - I already had the charger mounted under hood for use with my lead acid...

    Continued again... I reused my Victron 75/15 solar controller that feeds from Anderson plugs accessed at the rear of the drawer system. I keep a 25’ solar extension cord that plugs in here and a large solar blanket that usually lives on the windshield when at camp. You can see the Orion dc-dc...

    Continued... I used 2” high strength adhesive Velcro to attach the panel that holds the DC fuse box to the top of the battery and several brackets in the wing area. This allows tool free access to all the wires below routed through this area and had the added benefit of being quick and easy to...

    Continued... Now a schematic to see how all the rest is going to layout and fit behind the 2nd row attached to the rear of the drawer system. This took many iterations on paper to come up with clean wire runs and as part of my effort to keep it looking clean and simple I decided the DC fuse box...

    The big new project over the next few posts was a major upgrade of my aux electrical set up in the form of a Lithium house battery in the wing of my drawer system. It’s a similar version of what many have done before but the more of us that share the better we all get at it. @joltman this is...

    Time for some updates. I was noticing some looseness in the rear suspension turning into our driveway transition and decided adding a track bar or panhard bar correction might help eliminate that slight wobble I was feeling. I purchased and installed the Dr. KDSS bolt on bracket and it made an...

    Builds Joltman's Build: The Overkill Weekender

    This definitely gives me the context I was missing, much appreciated. I have all the house equipment ordered so now before install is a good time to consider moving the charger and thinking about a new location for it in the back etc. I'll update my build thread with the result once completed.

    Builds Joltman's Build: The Overkill Weekender

    I have been running a single group 31 starter/house battery setup for years and am now adding a separate house battery with the same Orion unit and have a question about this quote above. I have the Victron onboard battery charger mounted under the hood and an exterior plug in my front bumper...

    Cruise Moab was a fantastic time, highly recommended. Unfortunately, the single Deka solution I thought was sufficient now seems to have lost its capacity to run aux items like the fridge/freezer overnight. I need to update the original thread so others know I've started to run into problems...

    Cruise Moab 2022 Roll Call

    What is the food vendor situation? I was planning on bringing everything I needed because I hadn't seen anything about food vendors outside of the Friday night dinner. Figured I'd ask before I got too far into thinking about what to pack.

    The cheapest and fastest mod done to date has to be the addition of the @Markuson magnet hack. The addition of a rare earth magnet to your tailgate is such an elegant solution to the supporting cable getting out of alignment as these frequently do. I'll have a couple extras of these at Cruise...

    Our LC is set up for our three person family and while I had deleted the video screen on the pass side when I did the 40% second row delete I left the screen in place on the drivers side. I thought we would live with it for awhile and see if it added any value to the rear passenger on longer...

    It's been awhile since I added to the record here as @reddog90 recently reminded me, so here are the latest small tweaks. I'll start with my most looked forward to modification: Hatch lighting! These Whelen lights appear to be very nicely built and I think look like they belong in the LC. An...
