The Mini Fridge (5th Gen T4R) Build -- SOLD

Thanks!
What kind of info are you looking for?
It's a brute force HC dual swing bumper. Using one of his jerry can carriers(which fits my two 2gallon rotopax perfectly) with a 5# Manchester tank.
Don't have many pics, but I'll see what I have and post some later

 

Forgot to update here.

Propane tank mount is installed thanks to @GHOST SHIP coning through with the drill.

Next up is the Jerry can holder. It should be here in a couple weeks along with the rotos. I'm going one storage and one gas. For longer trips, I have an extra gas and can throw the storage on the roof.

 

Got a few shipments lately. Just getting to open them.

I got my 2gal storage roto and 2gal gas for my jerry can holder when it shows up. Icon Overland Rear Coils shipped out yesterday so those should be here soon. Hoping my King Coilovers come in around the same time so I can just have one big day of doing all the mods. Once the jerry can holder is pinned up, I'm going to move my license plate from the lower part of my bumper to the swing out underneath the propane and rotos so my hitch is completely clear.

Also got straps from @Cascadia Tents to replace the old ones on my tent. Went with an upgrade and grabbed the summit series straps. No more velcro! Customer service was great as always!

 

Speak of the devil. These just showed up

 

Finally out of busy season...

Time to get some mods done.

Tomorrow, my jerry can holder got here today so I just need to drill some holes and bolt it on next to the propane mount.

Next week, Rear shocks rebuilt, extended stainless steel brakelines installed, Icon rear coils installed.

Hopefully the following week, King Coilovers going on. Just depends on if I get them. Quoted 5-6 weeks and it's been 4 so coming up!

Hopefully I get them installed before anza borrego in a couple weeks.

 

Picked up the truck with the freshly rebuilt rear shocks and new Icon Overland Springs today. It rides so much better. The front still needs a lot of work, but the kings should be in soon.

Also went to pick up my RTT and the new springs hold it perfectly. The weight of the bumper and tent still leaves me with about 1/2" of rake. Just enough to load the truck up with my gear and bring it down to level.

 

Rear end finished! Only thing left is the jack mount.

 

Really nice rig.

 

Thanks Bruce! How are things?

 

Looks great man. Did you already sell those secondary shocks?

 

Nah I still have them on. Gonna pull them off as soon as the Kings get here. Sometime this month.

Also got a quote on rebuilding them so I can get them rebuilt if whoever buying them doesn't want to do it themselves.

 

Little project @GHOST SHIP gave me the idea for. Rotopax mount on the inside of my tire swing arm using 4 tube clamps and a sheet of aluminum.



Basically hoping to mount it like this. Bad photos I know.

 

One of my favorite Tr4 builds.

 

Thanks man! It's looking like I actually get to do more with it now!

Although most recent progress credit goes to @GHOST SHIP because of my lack of tools in my apartment

 

I'm just a monkey with a wrench. You tell me where to point it.

 

Hahaha off work in a few! You have time tonight to crank on the plate? If not, no prob my friend.

 

That's how I am with my friends. Love helping and tinkering with shit, just provide the beer and maybe some food and I'll be there

 

Well the rotopax project didn't work. The handle hit my hatch. It it was maybe 1/4" shorter, it would have worked!

 

Looked promising until I heard the slight "tap" when we closed everything.
