The Lair

Not sure to get that question... Academy of?

 

see my post. I only know what it is, because Ive heard @misdirection1982 talk about it. But its a sports place

 

Ahhh as far as I know we don't... not on Quebec side but maybe further west... But still, I have a bunch of sports and outdoor store to shop in my area, but I am more an online guy lol not a fan of large surface store

 

it's a sporting goods store similar to Dick's. Cheaper stuff but same quality usually. That's where I got mine from.

I wonder how much it would cost to ship you one...

 

Would cost too much haha! already tried for some parts and it was highly priced!

 

zip code? I'm curious...haha

 

what about this place? Its just from a search for hunting gear

I have this one @Kemosabe . Its good, and ive stood on it before too. But if I were to get another one, it would be a bit larger

Since I took out my platform to get the kayaks in there (probably coulda left it in) I decided to give it a mini overhaul. With the scrap I had, I fashioned up a drawer system with what I had on hand. The two Tupperware fit perfect length wise, so I screwed it onto the wood. Then added a handle and a couple stops to catch it from sliding all the way out!



This is with it fully extended



Here's the stops. Just two little blocks of wood to catch on the open tailgate.


Voila! All done. Going to pick up two more Tupperware and make one for the other side. I'll have tools and recovery gear on that side.

Did a test run with the wife back there and we still both fit even with the gas can there.

 

Pm'd

Thats where I buy my crossbow stuff! Might ask if they can have it. Their online store is not the best lol

Thanks!

Thanks!

 

walmart Canada does have great prices! Thanks @BravesTaco95 and @fatfurious2 !

 

Gas can should go outside now so the smell of it don't stay in clothes ans sleeping bag, and a mess happens so fast!

Also, just a proposition, but wouldn't you prefer to build side rails on your drawer so you can use all the space available under the platform? By using the tupperware you can be limited because of the lid and its sides that are not molded to the space available.

 

Ok, trying to finalize my wheel order. What backspacing and offset is everyone using to get "stanced"? or most ppl just go 4.5 and 0 with wheel spacers? I would like to actually get the tires outside of the flares a little bit, kind of like @ChadsPride look.

 

The gas can doesn't leak at all! I knew it'd be going in the cap, so I got the top of the line one. Damn thing cost $85 but it's worth it.

For the drawers, I 100% agree, but this is just using what I had on hand. It also saves weight and is easy to build since I'm not that handy with wood.

 

How far are you trying to poke out? These are 285s mount on 8" wide wheels with 0 offset.

 

Thats about right. Thinking 17x9 4.5 0 would work out ok.

 

Oh definitely. That'd stick out 2.5" over stock. Just be warned though that the farther your wheels stick out, the more you'll rub.
