Hi all… this is my 1st post… be gentle please to this newbie…
Greetings from Great Falls Montana… I’m building an overlander rig and mini trailer… let me introduce you to my team…
my van “Chupa Cabra” is a 2002 econoline 7.3 turbo diesel who started her life as a 16 passenger in a local religious community… in the last 6 months she has been lifted, converted to 4x4 with manual tranny & a 2 speed electric overdrive running on 37’s + lots of engine stuff… she will be my mobile office & will house all the electric thingys (390w solar, 200ah 52v li-ion batteries, driving charge from alternator) also i am designing a chassis mount system for the 37x13.5 spare…
Nelle is a 13ft scamp trailer… very close to basket case… frame has been reinforced & lifted… running on 31’s… she will be my home away from home…
I come from a design background & also do laser scanning in the oil & gas industry… so i had the luxury of creating full scale models of my project… feel free to reach out to me with any questions…
Cheers
Ebike toter
p.s. the majenta stuff in the van pics are tool boxes above the rear wheels which occupy the wheel well bumps & fender flares… just tried to post lots of screen shots but I haven’t been allowed more than one pic… I’ll get more up by replying to my own post…
