real nice , john
Thanks
Can you add a link for the ball mount you put on the A Pilar? I can't find them on the ram website
If you are referring to the arms that connect to the ball on one end and the device on the other, then there are some links in the video description. Hope that helps.
I'm actually talking about the 1" balls you screwed in place of the grab bar. You don't have a link for them
@@jaredduncan5441 Ram Mount Item #: rap-b-379um616
In 1975, I owned a 1951 Willys PU. The grill was the same as this. I have a photo of it if you want to see it. I just bought a 1954 and it is being "revived." This is a really cool-looking one. I'm going to take a couple ideas, such as the JC lamps on the front bumper. I've got a killer custom bumper on it.
Would love to see the progress. Find us on IG at ROAMRLIFE
I had a ‘49 wagon, early ones are cool but I do love some of the early 50’s boy and trim styling.
Yes they are all neat in their own way.
Thanks for this! Im going to do the track and try to get my phone and Zumo XT on it.
I am re-doing a 55 Willy truck and this gave me some nice ideas! Thanks!
Love it!
Brilliant solution, thanks for sharing! I’ve been looking for a clean, simple solution for mounting phones and coms on our 2023 Transit, and the RAM track seems to be the way to go. Was originally considering ProClip or other similar solutions but that wouldn’t cover the coms and isn’t universal or adjustable.
Thanks. We have been big fans of the Ram components, not only for the vast versatility and catalog of parts, but personally tested having been in a high speed accident and have had Ram's device grips retain hold of my phone, leaving it accessible.
I’m just getting a 1985 jeep cj7 built. Swapping it onto a 1996 Toyota 4runner 3rd gen. It’s almost done after 3 years
Awesome. Bet you’re glad it’s almost done!
I’m so excited because I haven’t drove that jeep in about 10 years. Just been seating in my shop before I took to mechanic to do the swap.
Your rig is awesome too. My wife has a 1962 jeep Willy’s just like yours that she swaps to do a swap with. Just trying to figure out what to swap it with.
The front fenders and hood are from a 1951......the grill and fender are connected on a slight curve ..when viewing from the front....1948 & 1949 are on two angles....alsi the hood ornament on a 1948 & 1949 is a njckel tapered strip from front to back....the 1951 is on your truck.....your Willys looks super great job....
Yes it has a history for sure. The title was a 48 so that is why we chose 48.
How does it sleep 5?
NICE
Great video. The Ram Mount site has a WARNING on their Grab Bar Mount page to not to install a mount on pillar if there is an Air Bag behind it. The Air Bag will launch the phone and mount at the driver. On our 2023 Ford Transit there is an Air Bag in that pillar that starts and the top and extends slightly below the bottom Gram Handle mounting hole. I seriously disappointed as I was looking forward to using the Grab Bar location.
That's a solid consideration when mounting in this location for sure. In this case, the ball mount is hard mounted where the grab handle WAS utilizing the OEM threaded hole. (as this in not meant to move when the air bag deploys) We were of the opinion that as long as the phone itself was rotated towards the steering wheel, past the center plane of the hard mount location in the A-pillar, that the phone would not get launched out of the cradle as it would be clear of the bag deployment. Alternatively, if you had the phones cradle rotated toward the window, in the path of the bag, then yes, I could see how any device in that location could get launched if that makes sense.
Where can I get more info on purchasing something like this?
Hi. Really nice build. Are those wheelwell cabinets a buyable product?
They are what we use when we do a custom build
How did that axle hold up over time? My prorock 60 rear needs overhauled after 18 months
How much it cost you to build this mode?
175-200 for 4x4 version
It has a 50 to a 65 front clip on it
Yes, indeed! Our best guess is that it is a 52. It was titled as a 48 and somebody changed out some panels early on is our best guess but we really don’t know. Good catch! Not many people mention, or noticed that.
I love this van. I wish I could get one in the UK! Would you consider creating a plan for a home builld version for us limeys?
Hey guys you are staying at the b&b right next to my house here In port angeles. This is nuts but I have seen your videos over the years. I live in the house with the white ford ranger.
Thanks for the message, that is cool! Which van did you see?
Is this a 144” wheel base?
Yes. 144 high roof
Where can I buy this van?
This one is sold, we are just starting our last eat build with this layout but with several upgrades. 2023 4x4 and many new additions. Will be available for presale if you are interested
*latest, not late eat…
Is there a website I can go to? What’s the best way to contact you?
Troy @ ahoybuilt.com No spaces
Great vid. I’ve watched it a few times now.. really like this build. One question. Are you able to recline the seat behind driver with the water jug in place? Thanks
Yes, you can on this van. But now we use an upgraded seat that doesn’t recline but the seat back folds down, and the whole seat bottom fold up against the driver side window to allow you to reclaim all of that space while you’re in camp mode.
Awesome, great build and thanks for sharing!
I need to install tablet holder on passenger side for my wife's watching Netflix. I already got two very feasible solutions from you, grab handle or rail, that I've never thought about. Thanks for sharing your wonderful idea!
Very welcome:-)
Spare needs to be on top of the decked bed insert and below the RTT.
All a matter of opinion and what is trying to be accomplished my friend. The RigD carrier gives us the option to remove it entirely and without having to have the tent higher on the bed that would closer push it above the cab
Beautiful rig. Where did ya snag those paddle board poles? Would love to snag a pair for my 144
Those were custom made so there really isn’t any where I can point you to get one. We plan to make another version sometime this year.
What rims are you using?
Rugged Ridge steelies

Where are yaw located ?? Tks, Ed/A
We are in Southern Cal
I've come across a 1948 Willys truck with a stock body with a flat wooden bed. It's been parked for years, what would be a fair price to offer ?? Tks,. Ed/A
We bought Nugget, largely intact (except for tailgate) with a locked up motor, and if memory serves, paid around $2200. But that was 5-6 years ago. I would check out classified pages on Kaiser Willys site as well as "Bring a trailer"(complete/running rigs) and poke around to see what's happening currently.
@@RoamRlife Ok, tks !! It's sitting down the street at an abandoned house with no mailbox or anything for an address. It's all fenced in, so I can't really get in, I'm sure the motor is probably locked up too. But thanks again for the leads on where I might find another Nugget or what they're going for. Have a Happy New Year !!
@@edalaniz6431 And to you Ed!
Love those old Willys pickups/wagons/panel trucks, the first one I remember seeing was the '51 pickup that a friend of Dads owned,he also owned a '55 Willys Custom four door sedan
Do you think its possible to leave the grab handle mounted and still add the M6 RAM mounting ball through the handle? Would it have enough thread to grab still (guessing not based on your description) and would the ball clear the handle sufficiently?
You're correct, wont be enough thread left. I searched for that size thread but in longer length, but didn't see one available. It would not only need more thread but would also have to clear the handle enough to be usable.
@@RoamRlife Thanks!
Nice one Tony! Looks great bro. Saving this for my build in the future
Thanks buddy!
Nice share! It’s also out of the way of the A/C vent.
Thanks and yes indeed. Now, only if i can get a peek behind the dash because as mentioned the dash in flat/nearly flat from center of dash to center of wheel.
What Bumpers are these and how did you get them to fit?
They are for a jeep JK and HIGHLY modified to fit. Not easy/cheap to replicate, but we wanted something that looked off the shelf that wasn't so was worth it to try it.
@@RoamRlife They came out great! Did you just get a full width bumper and the width match or did you have to modify the width too?
@@jgrile4085 If i remember correctly the width had to be modified as well. VERY modified.
Hey where is this dude located I need him!!!!!
Lots of useful features and thought around them for family of five.
If you have the power outlet option in the bed, I assume it will be lost (walled off). Do you know if the outlet cover would be in the way of the Decked System? Excellent video. I hadn't seen the corner storage areas discussed - only shown in a few pictures. Too bad they are not water tight. One might be perfect for an air compressor, with gauge and connections out of the side.
Love your build, just found your channel
hi there a bit late but what a nice truck john
Awesome Willy’s sir
Thanks
Very Nice Willy’s sir !
I just want to get your honest opinion about the KC Hilite gravity led pro4 you’re probably using or your friends are using. Do they produce annoying non tolerable whizzing noise while driving? Your post is very helpful and I always follow your channel all the time. 🙏 thanks
Very quiet
Did you get the single or dual sub option?
Best install video I have ever seen.
This video deserves thousands more views, because I know there's gotta be thousands more Tacoma 4x4 owners out there who are going through the same hassles & nightmares that I experienced with the factory Toyota drive shafts. I bought my 2000 Tacoma 4x4 brand new, 21 yrs ago. But up until recently, I knew far less about drive shaft design than I thought I did, thanks to Tom Woods. My original Toyota drive shaft was indeed the superior double cardan type, and I got 19 years of service out of the original u-joints. ( I off-roaded & worked the snot out of this little truck. ) But when it came time to replace those original u-joints, is when my own nightmare began. Odd ball size, VERY hard to find u-joints, meant I was forced to purchase them from the dealership for a ridiculously high price. The "centri- bearing" or "CV bearing" was replaced as well, and the moment I replaced those 3 u-joints ( with good Spicer's from Toyota ) and the CV bearing, I had vibration right away at certain speeds. This wore out my new u-joints & CV bearing within 18 months. Then I couldn't find those u-joints OR the CV bearing anywhere. Contacted all kinds of drive shaft makers & was told: "Sorry, we don't have a drive shaft for your particular truck". Then I finally stumbled across Tom Woods website. 1 phone call, my tailor made driveshaft was shipped out the very next day. I installed it only 4 days later. PROBLEMS SOLVED. It's loaded with the best quality u-joints, size 1310, which is the most common u-joint made. Smooth as glass and MUCH more durable than my original driveshaft. TOM WOODS IS THE MAN. BEST quality in the industry for THE BEST PRICE. I kid you not.
I like to build one
What was the drive shaft length starter installation? I’m about to instal a dynatrac prorock 60
Does the sound get louder? The jbl system doesn’t get loud enough. Are you able to put your back seat back and use it/fold it like you normally would?
