Wrench77 Overland Build

Carli has a long travel setup for the f250s. Ots not a plug and play bit they do work well on the HD trucks

Since they only work with trucks lifted at least 2" (their disclaimer is agressive), I'm going to guess they also have something that limits up travel on a stock truck. But they probably have the internal bump stop that these kind of bags can be made with.

I see more Carli kits with the Daystar cradles now than their long travel bag set up. Less than half the costs is probably the main reason. But not having the bags physically tied to the frame and axle is a great idea IMO.
 
How hard is it to remove the camper? Would like to keep my truck in my garage when I am not headed camping.

I’m not sure, It took Super Pacific about an hour to install, but they have a loft that makes it much easier.
 
I decided to remove the orange accents/chrome on the outside of the truck. I started with the front end. Paint matched the center bars iconic silver and a combo of iconic silver matte black for the Ford emblem.

Did/do they offer any modifications during installation? IF all goes well, it looks like I'll be getting the SP installed in August. Really looking forward to building this out.

I wanted to do the same thing to the emblems. How much did it cost to get painted?

I did it myself. Found a YouTube video that definitely helped. I bought the Iconic Silver paint from Touch Up Direct and the black from Home Depot. Total cost was about $100 and 3-4 hours of work

Thanks for all the information, I’ll definitely be doing this myself now. Do you have a link to the video? Also are you going to be painting the chrome on the side vents? I wanted to paint the F-150 iconic silver

Not at the time I got mine. They don’t even do the wiring for the brake light

I’ll do the side vents next. I’m planning to change the inner orange vent portion and the F-150 to black. I’m hoping I can get the tremor letters out individually so I can do those Iconic Silver.
 
I just paid for the Super Pacific. I'm going to go puke now and stay off this site so I can quit spending money

Congrats, hopefully the puking is worth it

lol, I hope so too. I'm already looking into building out my drawer and drop bench. I'm now motivated to have my electrical finished before the installation in August.

I've said that a dozen times, I then have to tell myself to quit lying to myself.
 
I got the side vents and rear emblem done this weekend. I’ll post several pictures of the side vents so you can see what you’re up against if it’s something you’re interested in doing.
