Pics of the recovery .. or you dance in the mud in any ditch close to your place and took the pic .. :rofl:

I wish I would have taken better photos. This is the only one I have. The lights off to the right is the Jeep XJ that the Powerstroke tried to get close enough to to save.

Do you sell those seat covers (for the 200)?

We don't, but the fine gents at Equipt Expedition Outfitters do. Give them a holler.
 
the Ford have lights on the inside part of the fenders .? :meh:

Oddly enough yes. These were some young cowboy types out playing in the mud. After fighting with the XJ for hours, they decided to call us.

I wonder if their first reaction was, "why is that Highlander pulling up here?"

Lol, possibly. They were all really impressed by the 200, they went bat s*** crazy when they saw I had a fridge.
 
Lots of little updates, mostly just been using it this past winter and still cleaning the dust out from the last Baja 1000. I've had a few Swell and Moab trips so it was time to get it in the shop and do some cleanup.

I've had what I suspected was a bad drivers side motor mount. We've dealt with them in the Canguro 200 so it really wasn't much of a surprise when this one failed. Thread on the failure here: Failed motor mounts - URJ200 - Anyone had it happen?

Video of the failed mount:
 
We just took delivery of the new stainless steel drawer tables and bags for the ARB Outback drawers. Totally digging these!

What does a bad motor mount feel like? Or, how did you suspect this?

A "thud" you can feel through your feet and/or steering wheel when you jam on the accelerator pedal and major movement out of the engine, it will "lift" a couple of inches when you power brake.

OK, wow.
That...is killer.
**Put me down for one if possible, Kurt.**
One of those on the right... in combo with my funky ladder shelves on the other side...

...would be a great combo since it allows surface space while accessing both drawers!!

Easily done, we have them in stock at the shop!
 
Do they still fit with roller top floors?
If not, then no dice... Hope they do...
Unfortunately the table doesn’t work with the Roller Floor units...bummer (from an ARB dealer’s website):

“Utilizing quality materials and finished in a 304 grade brushed stainless steel finish, the table provides a hygienic surface for a vast array of touring or worksite needs such as food preparation or additional bench space. The stainless steel sliding table attaches to the top of the ARB Outback Solutions Roller Drawer and can be deployed when the drawer is in either the open or closed position. This Table is compatible with ARB Outback Solutions drawer module p/n: RD1045*. * Not Compatible with Roller Floor Roller Drawer modules.”

No, they won't fit, RD1045 only They will hit the structure under the RF.
 
Lots of updates but I haven't taken the time to document in the last year or so. The ARB Linx is fully setup with the pressure control, rear locker, dual control, fridge control, etc. I've been absolutely loving that. Installed the 12 gallon LR aux tank, new OME rear springs to accommodate the added weight and a front suspension refresh. My BP51's were the oldest in the US and still working great but it was time to do PM in prep of an upcoming Mexico trip. I did new upper ball joints at the same time. A few pics until I have time to document.

Hey Kurt, I just called you guys and I'm going to call back tomorrow when Bryce is around since he's the 200 expert on these drawers but i wanted to check what part numbers this setup is? These are the 41" long ones right? Does it still allow you to use the 2nd row seats in the seated and flipped up configurations?
