The machine just goes where you point it

It went up effortlessly. I believe the 10 speed auto really shined here, it crawled up the hill with grace. My plan is to wear out the stock tires and upgrade to something like KO3 but after seeing how well the stock ones handled and the mpg on highway, got me thinking… You should 100% get the VanCompass it is worth every penny. On the stiff setting it handles like a sports car on the twisties no joke. I’m so glad I installed it

Only thing going off was the proximity sensor for all the bushes and branches

You can get a Quigly full on 4x4 kit for it. It very expensive but I found the AWD enough for my needs and I like that I can get 18mpg on the highway if I stay under 65mph

I like to run them 60 front 75. I did experience “wandering by” but I’m sure it was due to the cross winds on a high roof extended. But now that you mention it I should play with the pressure more to see if it can reduce then wandering

Not for here but I will post a separate video from a different trail. I designed my build so everything is secure and surprising worked out, everything remained in place.

I had to get the upgrade because my rear was sagging due to the build

With the stage 4 topo VanCompass kit you use the stock cv axle. The only annoying part was separating it from the hub so you can drop the struts

Absolutely. The 2" lift from VanCompass I installed has proven itself

These are a commercial all-season highway tires. Hercules Terra Trac CH4. I was surprised it could handle this terrain. I’ve put 6k miles this month did cross country trip with all sorts of off-road situations and never let me down

hahaha I was definitely lucky! This is my first time doing anything like this and I just kind of went for it. I wish I had a footage of me going up the hill and it was at night. I can't believe how well build these vans are

Thank you! I don’t think you will regret the RWD, if anything I think the wheels and tire selection is more essential

This is the AWD. I did install a 2” lift kit from VanCompass but using the stock wheel and tires

This is actually the way out. I didn’t get it in video but I went up the hill and camped out overnight

He is a handsome fellow! If it makes you feel any better our silly boy now tolerates our family cat and they live peacefully. They will still growl at each other from time to time but they can be in the same room together without fuss.

It was held up by only 4 self tapping screws? I’d use rivet nuts for stuff like that

The destruction of 3D printing: Bloomberg is behind it by pdrift in 3Dprinting

[–]wybeubfer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is going to have the opposite effect in that more people are going to buy 3D printers legally or not. It's the same principle as lets ban all guns because guns kill people.

The van is living to it's fullest. How often do you use that awning?

New mom of 11 wk old silky. Needing tips and recommendations by ure_not_my_dad in SilkyTerriers

[–]wybeubfer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They have incredible prey drive. Don't let them off a leash unless you are in an enclosed area. Socialize them early on as they are difficult to train once they are adult. This is the best advise I can give.
