Beautiful! Cant wait to live vicariously through you from my computer screen.
Can I put dibs on buying the old bumper? Can take it to PM if you want to talk price.

Sure! Wanna meet me in Colfax, CA on the 24th of May? $1500. Could use a fresh powder coat. The bids I got came back at $350-$650.

Have you had that a while? Recommend? Maybe one of your first reviews on your channel! ;)

Well, I do and don't recommend it. It's super nifty and handy but it's 6 bajillion pounds. So, I guess if you absolutely need it for your setup like I did, then get it. If you can figure another way, definitely skip it. Fitting everything for life on the road with 4 people in a small SUV requires every inch to be thought through. I'll definitely be reviewing it and other storage solutions through the channel.

All channel updates (instagram, journal, YouTube) will be coming weekly starting the week of June 14th 2021.
 
Very exciting! Look forward to following your adventures!

Left Colorado Friday morning and made it to Cali on Saturday for the weekend to visit a buddy in Lake Tahoe and at 8am will be at the shop with @benc to install the rear bumper and camp kitchen. Last big upgrade gets installed. Adventures start on June 17th. I'll add some pictures from the shop at Dissent tomorrow to the travel blog. Don't forget to subscribe!

What a day! I spent the day with the crew at Dissent Offroad yesterday and got the camp kitchen and bumper installed. This is the only camp kitchen they've installed on a hundred series, so extra care was taken and the team was very professional. I have to say I'm very impressed with first impressions and looking forward to putting it to good use!

I did get a tour on camera with the crew at Dissent and that will be posted to the YouTube channel once we get underway with our journey mid-June. Definitely subscribe to be notified!

If you're interested in seeing more photos from throughout the build and other great adventures, they can be found at OverlandTraveler.com.

I'll get some photos of it in action soon!

Godspeed!
side note, did you change the color on your wheels from gold to gray?

No, I decided to put the wheels on the LX since I liked them so much and currently have another set at the powder coat shop.

you’re seeing the 16” rims from the LX on it temporarily.
 
We hit the trails and headed to Boise for the 4th with friends to find temps as high as 105º. Not keen on sweating, we headed for the coast of Oregon for refuge. We were not disappointed. Here's a pic en route. More available on instagram via @OverlandTraveler and YouTube videos are in the works!
