Looking forward to watching this build. I’ll get caught on the build series. I’ve been thinking about building my square body into an over lander as well. Nice truck too!
You are going to be busy! Gotta love the cooler weather. I will be installing new gears and transfer case to my LJ before Thanksgiving. Kanati's are great tires. I really enjoyed them on the JK. Once the new BFG's wear out on the LJ, I will most likely go back to the Kanati's. Love those wheels, so glad you didn't go black.
That’s my exact plan lol stockpile parts during summer and work on it when it’s cooler out. I can’t wait to see your LJ! That’s my goal jeep other than a Willys 😎. You’ve sold me on the Kanati’s and had 35’s on the truck before these 37’s. And with the wheels I think l matured and I think the raw aluminum is better looking
Just found your channel. I have a 1985 K10 that I’m doing a very similar build on. Your collection of parts looks a lot like mine. Been collecting the parts the past couple of years. I know this is an older video and I will be watching the others to get caught up.
Love the truck build! How is all the extra weight and big tires going to affect your gas mileage. I drive a heavey ass suv and I get 12mpg stright, with gas high it stinks but I like my ride. Happy Travels!!!
I’m hoping that the axle gearing and overdrive in the transmission will help with gas mileage a lot. These trucks stock average around 20mpg from the factory. So I’m shooting for 15 mpg hopefully
@@2AOverland cartel, caterpillar same thing. Awesome to see your doing well. I’d be lying if I said I’m not jelly. Keep up the good content. This crap ain’t cheap
@moejr14 same thing true lol I appreciate it man I don’t mean to build and buy this stuff as a flex I’m just trying to provide good content and build cool crap 😎
It would have been cheaper to have a 2001 and up Silverado 2500 gas truck rear axle. 14 bolt 10.5 ring gear with duel piston brakes already to go. 68" wms to wms instead of 65"
@2AOverland I put a 70" out of a van in my 97 K2500 suburban and a Dana 60 high pinion from a Ford 05 and up. Old Dana 60s are about 70" wide, and Ford I have is 71-3/4" wide.
Good video sir, we would like to invite you to review our product and we have tried to reach out to you via email several times without response. Is the email stuck in your spam folder or that is something you’re not interested
That's going to be a really cool build! Can't wait to see it all come together 👍
Thank you so much! A 4x4 squarebody is my dream truck so having it as our overlander is gonna be awesome

Thank you so much for watching! 😊 I’ve been loving the truck and the build so far! Can’t beat an old school overlander!

I appreciate it man thanks for watching! 😎 I had to get some raw aluminum wheels for the truck over bronze or black
your shipping container defines the phrase "treasure trove"
Hahaha yes it is! 😂

not much to do on the xj... dang I'm envious 😂
You know what I mean 😂 the jeep will never be “done” lol I just wanna overload my self with another project before going back to the jeep
What’s wrong with the front axle on the jeep
Nothings wrong with the front axle
Dude did you hit the lottery?
No I wish! I’ve been working a lot of hours at work 😂
@@2AOverland dang what kind of work? Cartel?
@moejr14 No but that’s really good money! 🤣 I work at a caterpillar heavy equipment dealership

I don’t blame you there but would the 68” WMS match with the front GM D60 WMS?
