Denver2890's Weekend Warrior Build

nice lookn rig! and certainly functional TOO! mad props.

btw, billy and the kids shirt! guy from my hometown worked at grateful greens (billy's farm in HI)

 

What is the max bar spacing (center to center) you can get on that Thule rack?

 

Really nice build!
Rally like your camper with the tent on it

 

Love your truck sir!

Very nice build thus far. First time I have seen an EZ lift topper. I think I want one now.

 

I need to get to taking some photos of it all so I can explain. Here are some videos off their site that show how they work:

Thanks man!

I'm sure you will see me and my rig at a panic show at some point, I see them fairly often. I've seen them the past 4 New Years(plus many other shows) but can't decide on them in Atlanta or Dead and Co in LA this year.

 

Got to use the rack this weekend with some decent weight up top, went down to Tellico plains, TN to do some kayaking. Ran into a fellow TW member that knew me from this build thread(Dont know his user name on here).

I did raise the EZ lift and it worked no problem with the weight up top(as expected) but didn't get a photo. Here she is with 5 kayaks and paddles attached up top:

 

Can we see pics inside the camper...curious how that tent folds and unfolds

 

Looks like Christmas came early guys!

 

I will get that that after I install these new toys lol.

 

Got in my husky weather beaters in and installed. Got some photos while my buddy starting making a new pipe for my exhaust reroute!

 

Looking great! I am very jealous..

 

Ok so I finally got the exhaust reroute done by a buddy of mine for a few beers and hands while doing it. I can weld but not pretty, and didn't have the tools needed to bend the pipe. Here is the before photo with the pipe going under the transfer case and in the way of my Pelfrey skid:


Then here are the photos of the reroute, love how it turned out:

 

Installed! Very easy install with great directions! Thanks @Pelfreybilt !! Now some sliders and I'm ready for the trails. Here are a few pictures:

 

So I got off work early today and came home to my new ARB rear diff breather kit!



So I opened her up and got started installing it since I had already gotten the union from the dealer needed for this mod.

Really easy install, the ARB air filter device came with four spots to run breather hoses and the option to plug any number of the four spots with provided threaded caps. I just ran my rear diff to it for now until I get my snorkel down the road. I mounted it as high in the engine bay as possible while being out of the way. Here are some crappy pics for you guys, started to get dark by the time I got the hose ran to the back to attach to the differential.

 

inside the camper shot! GO!
ps everything else is sweet. would love to have pockets that deep.

 

I've been looking at the exact suspension, wheel and tire combination. Did you need to run spacers? Does it rub at all? Can you take pictures of where you had to trim?

Thanks! Great build!

 

I'm currently running no spacers and don't plan to ever. I'd rather trim than have something else that could fail.

As for trimming, it was just a little corner peice of plastic trim sticking out close to the tire by the cab mount, I'll snap a photo when I have a moment tomorrow.

 

Sorry I'll get on a few tomorrow, been very busy getting ready to move cross country.

I actually just got some icon LCA skids today that I need to make time for tomorrow as well!
