@Socalexpeditions Vagabond Drifter Build Thread and Trip Reports

Haha in total? A lot! On this truck, second combo. Only reason I'm switching the wheels up is for offset reasons to clear a rear shock relocation without spacers. I love the FN's a lot!

My videos honestly require little editing. I'm terrible at editing too - everything is done really basic.

Next week I'll be filming a more "cinematic" style traveling video including footage from 2 cameras and a drone; that will definitely take a while to edit.

 

I hear ya, it really depends on the “style” of shooting as far as amount of editing, but still, you do a good job keeping up with it all and releasing within a timely manner.

 

Put on the new wheel setup. Also bought a new rear bumper (Pelfreybilt). It’s in Arizona but I’ll have it on soon.

 

Lovin the look with the new wheels and meats, How much more have you had to trim to fit the 12.5's? The 11.5's look interesting or maybe I just nut up and get the 12.5's. Also you going HC or stock location bumper?

 

I will ultimately have to do a lot more trimming for full stuff, but for road driving it took me 10min per side to cut more...A lot can be achieved with an angle grinder and sledge in 10 minutes haha! They’re both great choices. I will say the 12.5s look badass, but will take more work to fit + wider tread blocks (louder).

I will be doing a high clearance!

 

Here’s a quick cinematic video I made. Unfortunately it’s a blue-balling video, but it’s really cool!

New bumper is on! I need to adjust the swingout height as I can’t open the tailgate now, lol.

 

Front fenders cut

 

The cuts look really good... now all you need is a slimline bumper.

 

Have you gotten the Rigd sorted? I was thinking of making my own similar to this one https://www.instagram.com/p/CGDPEolnyNv/ but now I think im just gonna weld a swingout onto my bumper idk yet

 

I ordered a Bruteforce Fab bumper! No slimeline for me

 

I haven’t been home yet to visit Jason at rigd. He has a solution (or i think he does)

 

Video on cutting fenders. These thumbnails are getting ridiculous hahaha
