Simpletire.com

They currently have the 10 ply BFG km2 mud terrain for $200 each and the KO2 all terrain for less than $190 each. At the moment they have $25 off $300 purchase. And their price includes free shipping.

Decided to use them for storage containers, under the sleeping platform.
I know you must be sawed off to begin with if trying to sleep in a D2. Judging by that platform you must be skinniest person alive as well.

...no? Both girlfriend and I are college aged, still live at home, and are on our parents insurance.

I'm "sawed-off" compared to most NBA players...from top to bottom...6'4".

Slept in the rear of the rover a few weeks ago in Ohio, moved passenger side all the way forward, filled rear footwell with stuff (recovery gear bag, rubber boots, etc), rolled out my 4" foam bed...and slept like a baby (like the one my wife says I am).

That piece of plywood laying in the back, was strickly for height ideas/measurements. There is a cigarette lighter socket back there and I didn't want to build above it...but it will be mighty close. Anyhow, gotta get going on this...planning on taking the grandson winter camping next month. Holidays are cramping my time frame, wish me luck.

Brian.

Re-installed newly-decked right cylinder head. Left goes in today. Any caveats advice reminders related to reassembly appreciated.

Dusty had a really good post about head gasket jobs some time ago. You may do a search for that.

Atlantic British just did a 2 part HG replacement video that is pretty good. Few things I'd do differently, but overall it's a good guide.
