2" lift woes. What did I screw up?

Measure the stroke length of the shocks. They should be 15.5" long. Also the part # will be stamped on the side of the shock body. It is possible you have the wrong shock (too short) in which case the travel is maxed out to whatever the length is. If it's the correct length, then it's an indexi...

L400 Frame Rust Removal / Converting / Preventing

I've done fluid film and it's messy but the result is a year of rust free happiness ! I also went through stripping down, grinding rust/corrosion and welding to get an L400 back from the dead so to speak. I lost lots of money and time and would never repeat that again nor wish it upon anyone. This i...

JB500 camper body on L300 truck chassis build

The LED dot headlights are great. It's amazing how much interior space it has inside compared to how small it looks from outside. The layout and storage space is really efficient for a camper. It's really slow on hills (no turbo) but it has good torque and it cruises nice and mellow on highway. Real...

JB500 camper body on L300 truck chassis build

Have been using this camper ski touring this season and so far it does not disappoint. Snow covered hwy on the Duffey was not a problem and having a heated camper to come back to after a day of ski touring was like gold.

JB500 camper body on L300 truck chassis build

It grew a little. From 28" to 32" tires. Surprisingly they fit without a lift. Drives very smooth and predictable like a regular L300. Ride, shifting and handling is much better with the Cooper AT/W E's. Can't even tell it's a camper until you look back. IMG_9984.JPG IMG_0008.JPG FullSizeR...

JB500 camper body on L300 truck chassis build

Thanks guys. I saw a smaller version JB470 LHD converted for sale from Chile for a crazy $ amount. I haven't seen one of these JB500's yet. But I know there's at least 2 floating around BC/AB.

It will be pretty neat to work on an L300 with a truck frame. It's been a while. Wonder how many old timers are still on here ? :-D

JB500 camper body on L300 truck chassis build

I've been eyeing these for years and never pulled the trigger for some reason. I know there's a few floating around and sparse information on the net, so I'm going to do a thread specifically on the JB500 in it's stock form for maintenance/specs and then I'll be modifying it with the usual suspensio...
