Operation: OVERLAND VX
I have recently gotten into overlanding since I went to some EXPO events with the guys from Expedition Portal. I have decided to do one part Camel Trophy, one part VX madness. This may take me some time as I am an underpaid gunsmith. The plans, Roof Top Tent, OME lift, custom build rear door w/tire carrier, drawer system w/water, compressor, and fridge, tube bumper to match my tube bumper, Lightforce lights, shocks, limit straps, hydro bump stops, sliders, rear locker, reupholstered seats.
Also I'm stripping all of the unnecessary weight from the vehicle to mitigate mechanical failure.
I know this sounds ambitious and I'm not sure when it will all come to fruition but most of the work can be done by yours truly. The tube work, and upholstery I can do (dad's an upholsterer) I will post as much as I can when I can but this will be the all en companying build thread.
I am starting out with an almost stock 99' Astral 58Kmi. Hoping to make it a super reliable off road truck that I can launch adventures and hunting trips from for years to come.
