    Watch 60 min. (4 episodes) of shop talk and antics from the team at Mountain State Overland in this overland truck build. We've got a lot of work to do to knock out in just three long weekends at OK4WD.

    Episode 1: We sell our old truck, buy a new one, then its off to OK4WD for suspension, tires/wheels and a rear bumper.

    Episode 2: At OK4WD its time for a front bumper, winch, lights and a few other accessories.

    Episode 3: Just three weekends in and we're wrapping it all up in this episode. We've got a camper, air bags and LYNX to install before we're done.

    Episode 4: Here's a simple vehicle walkaround of the final build on its first camping trip. In time we'll have it all situated.

    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!
    This is so sweet!! I bought a 3rd gen after building out my last Taco. I have been wanting to go a similar route. Thanks so much for sharing.

    Question - I am about to get going on my Device Management, and that ARB Lynx just came out...which looks killer. How is this working out?

    My research and calling ARB USA, tech support said it was designed to be mounted under the hood, or rather it needed to be mounted inside the truck.
    I was bummed with I found this out, as I figured it would be similar to that ofnthe SPOD.
