Thought I would surface again and do a bit of updating as to what I have been up to, I follow from time to time to see who is still out there.
Finally went all the way to new technology. Retired the 13 inch laptop for nav. It did good when that was all there was. Using the ipad 2 was awesome upgrade but, well like most things it left me wanting more.
I used it a lot to display my photography to clients and when I needed a bit more size I got an ipad air pro. Whew, nice size.
So now when adventuring or storm chasing I got the great advantage of steady connections and stable display.
Knight Metal works came up with a UCP design using lots of input.
Check this out from Knight Metal works.
Finally had time to install mine.
Having been wanting to have something like these built since 06 but running into issues like having to order multiples and the end price escalating, I was glad to see someone finally accomplish this.
Workmanship is excellent. Engineering was right on. It just took some muscle and a hydraulic tranny jack while on a lift in my case to save the old driver body.
Being that my shop is full of woodworking tools setup for some projects and a long table full of quadcopters (maybe that last one was a drone?), my poor old neck and shoulder is still locked up from sailing in high winds, I opted to get help.
Arkansas Mid-Ark Offroad to the rescue. These guys have done a few small projects like the truck my H3 is sitting beside. lol
Obviously it has on the tires for hauling on a trailer in the first shot.
I have bought two Warn winches from here and have had help with parts on one of those.
If I can't do it myself I want someone that cares and uses the same, or higher quality of workmanship I try to accomplish.
Thanks Daniel
Got someone to make a custom gauge pod for the a-pillar while I did some fiberglass work on boats.
Then I'm still into the drone hobby. They just keep getting better and smarter, wish I could do that!
So, there you are you see I'm still making road trips and exploring.........
