    I have been so busy adding more stuff to the trailer my updates have suffered.
    Well, I am off on an adventure but will be getting photos and updates loaded asap.

    In the meantime I just love the way this shot turned out from a few days ago.

    We need a suspension update...how are the Timbren working out?

    Also, I looked but I can't see what size solar panel you went with? 120W?

    So to throw it back a bit here are some photos from when I swapped out the suspension to the Timbren Axle-Less set-up.

    I was a bit leary at first going away from the typical axle but with so many great reviews and winning a SEMA award I figured it was worth a shot.
    Seriously night and day difference! So much smoother on the trails and tracks perfectly. Couldn't be happier!

    Out with the Old:









    In with the New:

    Organization addition. TrekPak

    Something that bugged me constantly was the lack of organization with my gear/crap. I would through random tupperware containers in the storage area and in the drawers just toss stuff into because while driving it would all just fly around... not ideal.

    Looked into foam but hated trying to cut it out and once you do form it there is no versatility to hold different items.

    Enter TrekPak. I have been drooling over there system for my camera gear for quite awhile and couldn't think of anything better for this application.

    The secret sauce is those red tabs which allow for a secure fit for everything. Change the grid layout as the gear changes. Bingo Bango.

    It's a Boxer.
    Sad thing is right now I'm sitting in the vet waiting room for them to finish up tests... Might have cancer but won't know for a few more days.
