Lord Humongous's Tow-coma

[Lord Humongous]

We drove out to Resevation lake which was frozen over. We followed snowmobile tracks all the way out to the lake and didnt see another soul all day. Perfect
I was actually having difficulty with one long hill in the snow. I tried 3 times and kept sliding into a ditch on the side of the road. I almost gave up but tried crawl control which actually worked amazing. Didnt slip a tire and drove straight as arrow.

I’ve been in two different situations where Crawl Control would’ve beeen perfect. Like a dumb ass, I forgot I even had it.

I almost did too. The crawl control hasn't proved to be all that useful in the desert where I normally am but It was absolutely amazing on that icy hill. As we were going up we could see tracks where what looked like another truck stopped and the only thing after that was sled tracks.

Need some help with a cabin water leak. Input appreciated.

Sweet build man! I think you need more photos though. lol. I really like the location of your handheld mic for the radio. What did you use to mount it?

Finally getting around to putting a workbench together. This thing is gonna be heavy duty! I still need to finish welding some joints and add some tube to hang clamps and tools off of. I have 1/4" plate for the top and reinforced the area I'm going to mount my vice with 1/8" tube. Also considering welding a 12x12" piece of 1" to the top for a hammering area.

Welds are looking a little better.

Nice work!! That thing isnt going anywhere!

 

[Bird dog]

Very well done and practical.

 

[Lord Humongous]

Wheels and tires! I pretty much finished this thing up. I still need to add a bracket underneath so I can slide a folding roller stand underneath the tabletop. Kind of an after thought since I already painted it but that's what grinders are for.

I'd be down to build a couple more of these things. I'd do it for pretty much cost of materials since I'm still learning the welder. I need to get more gooders for reasons.

I'll keep you posted. I'm gonna be a little busy here. Planning on a 50' long 13' high carport in front of my side yard garage. #HOAcansuckdeeznutz! Hopefully get it finished next month.

Awesome looking workbench. Super functional and clean!

Duuuuuude. Um, sooooo do you think you might be able to help a guy out and weld something for me? My rear bumper is coming today and I need the light filler plates burned in and then cut new holes for my flush mount BD S2's

Those 4x4 Van's are big money!! A buddy of mine is currently building a Ford e series van into an "adventure van". Its currently 2 wheel drive but hes planning on the U Joint Off Road 4x4 conversion and solid axle swap

Tell me about it. Its about 60k for an empty 4x4 van plus a 6 to 12 month wait at the moment. Im definitely thinking about building a 7.3 Econoline but the wife is buying this one so she'll have the final say.

Did some camping in Utah and hiked around a few national parks. Thank god for four wheel drive. SO MUCH MUD trying to find a campsite with the trailer.

I need to see what citysurplus.com has lol

I personally love the ambulance conversions. Those things are bad ass, especially with the u-joint offroad 4x4 conversion
