omg the vultures always circle when its mayor time.




I noticed it was page 1700, this shit has grown

 

I've been here since the high 1400s and that was only late june

 

@Norilsk doesnt understand this and expects me to figure shit out in a day.....should have seen his bumper....

the only reason I am debating over steel is the durability. I have found with welded aluminum it tends to crack. The uteltd bed is all bolted together for that reason. For a cap, I’m thinking steel especially if I get friendly with a tree again. Mind you the aluminum cap held up. Just harder to fix. Still weighing the options.

 

Been here for a minute. Happy to see how big the community has grown. Lots of knowledge here.

 

I am here since page 25, a shameful post, back in my PreRunner days

Hey everyone is asking where to get those and when Gen 2 coming out, so we are making more of those!

Steel bed using angle beams as outer frame and planks of wood/mesh as a platform is best option for what we encounter. on the rocks

For more overland and easy lifestyle, aluminum is a good option. Still got to pray MTO doesn't pull you over tho, since law is very vague.

 

Well I know where to go get a cvor if needed....good to have back up options.

 

You must have an rtt, or else youre not part of the cool guys club

 

Oh yeah, minimum 1“ lift required to do overland on gravel roads

 

I would choose plywood for the flat area, and seal it really good with water proof polyorethene. Lighter and lasts, and when it's time to replace, it's easy and cheap to replace.
You can bang that thing, and repair it once a while, sand it, seal it. Make holes to install anchors, patch holes if you change your mind, etc...

For the sides, if you can afford, aluminum.

 

That's a nice way to convince the wifies to join you on overlanding.

For my purse sake, let's keep this confidential.

 

don’t mind him. He was once all over it.

 

no plate, no proof, ain't mine

 

Ive made 100% of the stuff on my truck starting with the skids. Honestly the worst part about it is just how much you have to crawl under the truck to measure and keep checking fitment.

im about $200 in on skids
$300 on sliders and $300 on bumper
If you already have the tools it just takes time.

 

For his sake, he better price it at a point where he is not working without return.

Better no sales than sales without profit.

I like The idea of creating an option that is more affordable and unfinished or let's say a frame and the client chooses how to finish it.

I don't need this kind of product , I am just thinking on the business perspective/ what clients may want.

 

I wat it cheap, durable, light, easy to modify and repair, oh and must be yesterday. Did I say I want it cheap? /s

There is huge potential market in USA, and I hope it sells well! Canada is dead for the most part. People can barely afford Netflix subscription and pay for food at the same time here.

Toyota* off-road market here is DIY or bring your parts from USA since it's much cheaper.

 

well you did post the above pic here:

did I go back almost 4 years into your posts to say fuck you......maybe.

 

I'd be in at those prices too. I can make... I can't make anything myself

 

In case anyone needs this

 

@Norilsk now is the time to get back in the game!
