    Expeditions, adventures or just a campout

    Second road trip for the ol girl. 168mi to camp. Best I figure without fueling up is about 8mpg. Probably not bad considering the headwind and gears. Case maintained 230* or under as long as I stayed below 60mph. Was over 90* and engine and case temp dropped as the ambient temp went down. Had to...

    Rhino 5/4 RV

    Got the top rack extension foldable and usable and bottom bunk folds up into store position but I don't like the way it looks. May try building a slat bed that will fold up where top and bottom meet and make a cleaner look.

    Rhino 5/4 RV

    So I pulled the trigger on a M1009 parts truck. Have to go load it and the Dana 70 when I get a free weekend and dries up. Thinking the auto tyranny will be a good swap for easier driving and I probably won't be doing too much rock crawling with the old girl ha! Had to add a frame mount fuel...

    I love your truck. If I wasn't so deep in the M725 I'd consider moving up a notch to a duce. Well done sir.

    Thinking out loud here. It looks like the M1009 Blazer has the same TH400 and transfer case as the pickup and the old man has a bunch of the M1009 still. My thoughts are to buy a blazer and pull the transmission and case out and either sell the rest of the truck for scrap or if i can get one...
