    This is my 4th popup camper and I had 2 build threads on expo. There are more involved questions, at least there were on expo, that take more effort to answer. Focus won't be on the truck, which is similar to so many builds on the forum. There's less common/ TW knowledge with popup campers, and there will be questions people can't google or forum search. And I want to help, which will consume more of the time I could be building the mofo. I've got a long way to go... and no time as it is.

    With a camper like @Iggy 's, this is going to open up a whole new door to popup campers. Cheaper and more simple than the competitors. And we have the first ones, so there's somewhat of a responsibility with a build thread. It could help or hurt future sales. Don't want to fuck that up.

    I'll flip a coin tomorrow.

    I like it but I like the original even better for $10 less. That's my standard as a good day/bad day/whatever day cap when I get home at 1:30AM.

    Also, they can fuck themselves for putting out Tin Cup. Not even the shot cup that comes with it is worth a damn.

    More like "we should" as in she could pick me up from Yotaman when I drop it off. I think a SAS is a little bit out of my league.

    You guys think i should add the ARB up front? I mean, they will already be in there. But iis also an additional 1100. I know a rear locker is gonna help out tremendously with my habit of hammering down

    If it's already torn apart then do it. I'm still kicking myself in the ass for not doing it when I put in the 4.56's. The guy at the shop said I was stupid if I didn't do it. He was right. :facepalm:

    You will need throttle restraint with the front locker. That'd be like a whole new 'Nando. I vote no LOL

    What rear locker?

    If your going ARB in the rear, maybe get a Detroit instead and spend the difference on the front.

    My old dd had that combo and it's weird at first but you get used to the Detroit. Also you can spin brodies like non other...

    @T4RFTMFW @Overlanerd what Allett wallet did you get? Original slim or ultra slim? I have about 8 essential cards so thinking the original would be best, just don't want to sticking out the top of my pocket (looks tall).

    I would but I'm not kidding about having a SAS done to my truck. Thinking Dana 60 from a 99-06 super duty with links not leaf springs.

    Leafs aren't bad but if I'm going to do it I'd rather link it. From what I've seen you get more flex out of it. But more monies too :(
