Busy 4 days. Installed toytec ultimate lift, welded panhard drop bracket, extended rear brake line, flushed brake system.

Replaced ITRE's and paid Firestone for a lifetime alignment. To my relief, they actually did job.

Then replaced my seized ac compressor and all the parts that are supposed to be replaced with it, flushed the system and recharged. Man it's HOT in Texas without ac.

Then we bought steel

Got the plywood top screwed down before I ran out of time. Slide out drawers and coating or carpet will have to wait, camping trip starts sunday and I am buried under work till then. I am satisfied, we should be able to pull over and be laid down to sleep anywhere in under 2 minutes. It's a long drive from Texas to anywhere cool enough to camp during the summer, so this will save us big on hotel costs when headed to Nor Cal or other distant destinations. Just pull over somewhere quiet, move the cooler and water canister to the front seats and pass out.

That sleeping platform is coming along really well. Is it just going to be in for trips or is it more permanent? Looks like it would be pretty tough to get out.

On a side note how are your wheels holding up? They looked great after you painted them. Any issues?
 
It comes apart in the middle. Have to remove the sections at an angle thru the rear gate, but they come out. It's just for trips.

The wheels have held up well to the road, but watch out for impact wrenches on the lug nuts. The only chips were from someone take off my lugs with a gun.
