Ordered the upper glovebox kit from the dealer (only $7 more than best online) and it will be here tomorrow morning. Got some MDF to make a platform to put in the back for the 2 German Shepherds. Also picked up a tire weight pliers when I take off the cladding on the wheels. I was going to do everything today, but the when the doc told me I have Diabetes (T2), kinda took the spring out of my step. I will just start in the morning.

Changed mind on removing the cladding on the wheels, Just gonna look for 3 spares.

Anyone know of a lock for the center console? The GSD pup knows how to get into it.

Always keep the browns, I have a small stack and my brother has a ton. I’ve used them a couple times in some coffee table builds and give em out as gifts.
Gotta post some pics of that! It's one of the things I always wanted to try, but we don't get much in the way of substantial sheds out here in Jersey. I really need to make my way out west.....

Are you going to put some padding and carpet on the mdf?

for the first trip, it went great. super comfortable and we only "forgot" a couple things like soap and a sponge and stuff. the camp kitchen is fantastic...having a working sink when you're camping makes a huge difference.

Used it to bring my small camper home. Going to de winterize, and get it ready for camping season over the next week as I have time.

Wait, why would you have to remove axle ???


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There is NO extra space between the hub and the parking brake assembly. From what I read, a lot of guys find it's easier to pull the axle than it is to work around th hub. It was definitely tight, but it seems to me that pulling the axles would have been way more work.
