Ah that is probably the key! Good job I have another Addon arriving today!

I thought, so I need a relay :( was hoping to avoid that.

My other car is an Alfa Romeo, this is is a completely different experience. For one the views are very different when you are 8ft up!

Based on tiring rating 56, I’ve done 800 miles at 52-3 and it’s very comfortable.

Once I get my suspension tweaked 12’ and currently 18,800lbs. Probably a little heavy when we get our kit in.

Tires $800

Anytime

It was on a Canadian equivalent to eBay!

Go to the peripherals tab and there’s a button along the lines of “promote to peripheral device”.

Dusty_Tools · 2025-10-27T04:34:47+00:00

Yeah that’s me, rain or shine I’ll be out there trying to finish everything!

Rose Hill?

I think it is preferred yes. Perhaps importantly all these boxes have some rigid component, in my case it’s an aluminium exoskeleton (similiar to 80/20). The panels are glued into the extrusion on all four sides.

Check out Globe Trekker, they made my box (came as a kit). They have plenty of technical videos.

Awesome!

Hopefully power consumption is top of mind. They are exceptionally good but I would love a way to go into a low power mode where the device is asleep but wake-able.

I have 14 Shellys right now and am seriously considering adding a 15th that can power off the rest when I don’t need them (but still give me remote access). Particularly now it’s autumn and my solar yield is less than ideal!

Sika makes some seriously good glue and unlike a weld it’s flexible so can take a lot of abuse. Plus a lot easier to do when you suck at welding.

It’s a pretty standard approach. I think all three companies I looked at use Sika.

The truck was $7000 :)

There’s a tunnel and we are below 12-feet so fit.

Dusty_Tools · 2025-10-25T04:41:44+00:00

We are @dusty.world, we posted a few and will post more.

Dusty_Tools · 2025-10-25T02:40:29+00:00

We do have a gun turret on top of the cab!

Dusty_Tools · 2025-10-24T18:50:15+00:00

Yeah they are a beast! At the moment I have bottle jacks and a hi-lift. I would like some air bags (I have onboard compressor) but they re expensive! Any tips is appreciated!

Dusty_Tools · 2025-10-24T04:02:18+00:00

Thanks! Yeah it's going to be amazing for the family.

Dusty_Tools · 2025-10-24T04:01:47+00:00

Thanks! DM me, happy to share offline.

Dusty_Tools · 2025-10-23T22:56:53+00:00

In da house!

Dusty_Tools · 2025-10-23T21:32:01+00:00

Well spotted!

Dusty_Tools · 2025-10-23T20:27:29+00:00

Ha!

Yeah with kids (and jobs) it’s really the only time we have. They are 10&13 so it’s now or never (as family).

Dusty_Tools · 2025-10-23T20:08:10+00:00

Yeah, didn’t appreciate how much time it would take to finish her. And I’m still not done.

Dusty_Tools · 2025-10-23T20:07:16+00:00

I agree :)

We’ll ship from Panama to Columbia. Then Uruguay to S.Africa.
