A TTB conversion would be a smidge lighter than a solid dana 60 and reduce total lift height, but at this point you'd have to DIY it since Agile no longer does those. Or try and adapt one of the coil...

Fiberglass body is a big deal for thermal conduction.

I have the V10 in my PW and it pulls the 8500lbs around just fine even with the thin air in CO. Sea level is even better.

It's getting...

Oddly enough if you click on them to enlarge, they're right side up.

I'm seeing 36 hr one-way? Lengthy, but doing it over 6 days is pretty luxurious. That's a comfy 3 days or a hard 2 day trek, or somewhere in between. But I also have gone CO to CA and OR in a...

Correct, steel. Only fiberglass ones I know of are from Weldtec?

Sure, but one could say the same thing of doing your own gear set up, welding, body work, etc. Sometimes it's fun just to learn, and the hood provided a free opportunity to tinker.

Only some I can get to from the backside, unless I take a drill to the hood supports anyway (which, in reality, probably not a big deal).

It'd be getting a coat of paint or a wrap anyway, so not...

IIRC if it's indeed from a SRW, you should be in good shape. Should be pretty easy and quick to check with a tape though. Double check spring spacing...I can't remember if that changes with the C&Cs...

Fundamentally the same...but if you have springs for the 7.3 they're going to be a bit rough with any of the gas engines.

How's the durability of the LEDs? I remember stories of the earlier gen LED bulbs dying on off road vehicles from the vibrations, but wasn't sure if the newer gen fixed that?

Looks like it crosses through AR. Could be a good time to do some spring riding in Bentonville and catch that as a bonus.

That's the best video I've seen on a 4x4 one yet. The previous UJOR ones only do a brief walk around the outside. Nice find and good motivation to keep it and put the MG kit on it.

Some local supply shops probably have classes. General Air in CO has some excellent MIG courses that are well worth the $50-70.

I'll admit that calling it moist heat isn't great marketing, but there's no combustion in the cab, unlike a Mr buddy. However, what they're getting at is they aren't bringing in outside air, heating...

Oh, the water tank is still there. They just sandwiched the tank in. Why? Your guess is as good as mine. Might be a slightly larger tank that didn't fit? Could have been a shadetree fix?
