So New build, not that i have finished with the last one but new business means another car is needed.

This one will be a dual cab 200 conversion, Jmacx Chassis, front and rear winches, Fabricated diff housings with 4.3 gearing, lockers etc. Gulf-Lander Touring canopy with hydraulic struts on all doors (remote controlled), Will be showcasing our Lithium setups with twin 130ah underbonnet batteries to do the cranking, front winch etc an a twin 200ah in the canopy to run the 3000w invertor, induction cooktops, Coffee machine, pie oven and microwave all via Victron products with some digital switching thrown in.

This will be a 6-9mth build..

I just want the diesel ... after I put 500k on the gas engine may do a cummins conversion , but that time fossil fuels will be taboo and I guess it will be a EV conversion .

Not in our generation. FF will be around for decades. Consumption is projected to increase until at least 2040 under the most “green” evaluations.

What’s the story with the EFM Kings? I’m super interested in these and didn’t think they were available yet. You doing some work with King?

Interested as well. As someone who has pulled apart and re-valved shocks many times I would love to be able to fine tune the rate of oil flow through the valves without swapping shims (EFI versus carb). I came very close to buying Fox LiveValve on my new endurance race mountain bike but unfortunately it is only on a limited number of frames and I didn't like any of them (you can set coarse dampening via external buttons and then the software handles effectively locked out to full squish based on sensors).

I'm at least buying internal bypasses for the front and external for the rear when I do the suspension on the 200. But if Fox or King would bring something like LiveValve to the off road world I'd be all in.

I was the first in AU with the 3.0 Kings with Bypass rears. I do a lot of stuff with kings over here so yes, First with the new ones too. I do tend to push my cars harder than most.

Cool. Looking forward to reading your writeup on the system.

Dammit I love this forum. Badass.

Watching this! Knowing Voodoo this is going to be an epic level build. It is just other level stuff this Aussie does. Cheers mate looking forward to the build.

 

[VooDoo2]

First and most important puzzle piece has finally arrived.

Those looks nice, I'd buy a set.

 

[VooDoo2]

Few more custom bits added to the growing pile

 

[VooDoo2]

New diff housing is here... colour coding it of course.

 

[VooDoo2]

Diff back from paint. Ready for lockers, some Nitrogears and big brakes

I also wanted the Victron battery protect under bonnet but the specs say it cannot live under there (ie temps over 40deg) .... Is it still alive and working well?
