    Heavy Duty Bumpers for Expedition/Overland Use: Practical Necessity or Superfluous an

    WOW are you kidding me? Dude i laughed pretty hard, but also sad to see people that are so clueless in our society. Some poor shopping cart is missing its tubework at the Safeway. Its waxed daily cause the wax from yesterday faded overnight and dripped off its so slippery..... The shovels so...

    wow, thats some accident. What did that "parts rig" cost you. Looks like the winch will be usable. I assume you needed some interior parts?

    1976 Scout Traveler, Ultimate Expedition Build

    The project is looking great. I vote for the light guards on the bumper. The way you did your snorkel kinda reminds me of the one I did in 2000 or so. I used a centurie precleaner on top. I kept it off on the side to minimize lost visability. Anyway its looking closer to being done. Cant wait to...

    What about the small $50 units (2 gallon i think) that they have at the BBQ places. I have one and use it on my flamethrower/weed burner. Its small and still holds a decent amount of Propane. Just an idea. John

    1976 Scout Traveler, Ultimate Expedition Build

    I have pics up on the web forum of the spraylining of the tub and the inside of the tops, but no dashpad pics. Its the Rhino material but i spray Ultimate linings. It was Rhino linings of Canada before they moved to the US. Then they changed their name to Ultimate linings but the chemicals are...

    I did a cage through the dash one time but it had a custom dash so no dash pad. What did you end up doing to the dash pad? Trim it and reseal it up or? Also did you just extend the e-brake release out to clear the tube?

    Here is a Jeep Cherokee i did for a expedition Jeep Cherokee. The guy was also a volunteer fire fighter. It had to have everything.

    Here is one i did on an expedition style scout. It has 60 Pin led turn signals, then the 100 Watt flood lights are angled out since it has H-4 Hella headlights. This gives a broad range of light up front. Then below it has Piaa driving fog light combo lights. The winch is inside centered for...

    Here is another cool one i did and incorporated the tow bar into the pull points. The clevis mounts go all the way through the bumper and are lined up with the frame rails for strength and so you do not deform the front face of the bumper in a hard pull or impact. # Winning

    Heavy Duty Bumpers for Expedition/Overland Use: Practical Necessity or Superfluous an

    I thought you may like to see a few of the bumpers i have build over the years. They may not be all out Expedition bumpers, but i guess that depends on your definition. These happen to be on Scouts but seem to fit almost perfect on older Toyotas too. I custom made these. One went to Alaska to...

    International Harvester Scout / Toyota Chinook / Expidition 4x4 pop up Camper

    Yea i saw Nolans and his Blue one on the Toy forum and liked the interior he did. Also saw one recentley in Canada on a newer toy with a cummins 4bt and they wanted $16,000 but it had the all pro offroad lift and a strait axle conversion. It was sweet. I love the durability of the International...

    International Harvester Scout / Toyota Chinook / Expidition 4x4 pop up Camper

    Dang thats clean. I think in my research on reading all the threads on these i saw that guy when he bought the blazer one. I liked that it was taller poped up than the scout-2 version originally. Too bad its in CA, or i would barter for it or buy it perhaps. I have only seen 1 up here in...

    International Harvester Scout / Toyota Chinook / Expidition 4x4 pop up Camper

    It was pretty nasty on the outside when i got it, but thankful it was sitting unused out in the open for the past 7 years. Had it been under a tree or something it would have been much worse i think.

    International Harvester Scout / Toyota Chinook / Expidition 4x4 pop up Camper

    Anyway thats all the pics and progress for now. The next step will be choosing the International to graft this onto. My current choices are a 1961-1965 Scout 80 or 1966-1971 Scout 800, 1972-1980 Scout 2, or 1976-1980 Scout Traveler. I looked at moding it onto a IH Travelette (crewcab pickup)...

    International Harvester Scout / Toyota Chinook / Expidition 4x4 pop up Camper

    Interior: It was a base model with just an icebox so the nice thing is there are no doors on the side and i can build it out without having to glass in the holes if i want to relocate the items that need ventilation. However i am thinking i will vent them in a more creative way if possible so I...

    To Cody Burwell AKA Beast 1210 continued: No one pays $150 more than they owe someone on an invoice, or says they will send a check if they don’t owe anything, etc. I didn't want to point that out, but it’s all logical and fact based truth. As to stopping use of my parts because of...
