New ladder and diesel cans

Pretty self explanatory, I got that low roof ladder from japanoid, i love the look of it, someone teach me how to powdercoat..... everything. Its a bad angle for the ladder, it is kinked in the middle and fits the shape of the van beautifully.

The cans are from daves army surplus in new west, $15 a piece, really nice guys there too.

Next step, getting my rear hatch to open down into a ramp, and pulling out all my seats to put benches down each side, and welding the sliding door shut so I can fit 14 inch wide tires.

I like the idea too, not very practical but we'll see what happens haha. I'm not the most practical guy in the world.

Sounds like a great way to break the back window... if I do it will be replaced with lexan. God i'm an idiot sometimes.

Adam,

Remove the back window, make the door into a ramp... and drive an atv or sled into the back... sweet deal that would be, wouldnt it?

yeah, dirt bikes, mountain bikes, sleds, light artillery..... hmmmm, maybe this could be easier than I'm making it out to be, door goes up, ramp goes down.... at least i'll have something to keep me occupied this summer.

My favorite part about being in kimberley was being able to ride off the hill and sit down on my bumper before I strapped out. Imagine, remote ramp down, ride in, sit down. I'm getting too excited about this.

Adam,

You need to join up my friend!! We've got some good off roading around Kandahar!!!!

Kandahar eh?

I'll stick to fighting the H2s and mercedes SUVs in the battlefield we call richmond.

I swear it takes all the patience I;ve got not to weld up some beefy bull bars and just ram those people who go after the advance green. I need an air horn.

I enforce the rules of the road one car at a time. It is immature but sometimes I get so frustrated.

Wow, how did I get onto this topic? Somebody bring me a drink.

Adam,

The last thing you need is a drink man... think of the tangents you will go on when you are half lit!
