Thank you for your reply! So you sleep on top of the topper now? When you slept inside the topper(in the past) was air flow a big problem(maybe why you sleep up top in the tent because of that very reason?) or was there a way to get so air flow so you could be comfortable? Reason I’m asking is on long trips out west from the mid west I will overnight in a Walmart our a Cracker Barrel and won’t feel comfortable in a tent above the topper. Once out west I think the roof tent(superlite) is a good option but not so much in cities or along highways? Can you advise me on that concern?
No no I still sleep inside the topper lol I use a topper tent it’s an extension that lets you sleep in the topper with the tailgate down. I didn’t really have any issues sleeping inside of the topper with out the topper then until I sealed the bed up.
@@RoamWithJon Have you watched their other videos from over here and in Australia? I am excited about the next US one, it was here in AZ, Bulldog Canyon.
@@pingpongballz5998 it’s a really really light flannel, I started to wear long sleeves and light flannels in the summer time, especially if I know I’m gonna be out for a while, to avoid getting sunburned lol
me and my buddies went there a couple years ago, my Tundra and two Tacos, and I thought that the lake was decently full. but this time it looks like its hella full! we did the river crossing last time but it looks like that part is submerged. I gotta go up there again, this time with my 4runner.
Oh it’s definitely worth it to go right now, that area with the water crossing is fully submerged probably under 6+ feet of water lol the area is super nice now!
Mmm I shot this a week before I posted it. Very recent. Yeah if you’re coming up in a sprinter van I wouldn’t suggest coming in through the normal entrance lol. There’s other ways to get to bowman lake.
@@krissryanmndz506 it’s actually pretty steep uphill in some portions. One really off camber section, a coupe water crossings, but aside from that the trail was pretty easy
I just installed mine and once full, it doesn't feel like it supports it well enough. I would like to ask how does it hold up to some rough roads and or bumps?
It’s a little wobbly with the stock set up. I eventually ended up making my own mounts. You can use a couple 100lb zip ties to keep it from rocking but then you’d lose the ability to take it off. No issues though off-road it just rocked back and fourth lol
"This is where we switch" 😂. I bet you switched at that hair pin turn eh? I was just there today. Just got home. Great place. My wife wanted nothing to do with the driving lol. I'm definitely going back. Dope spot for sure! Take care! 👊🏽
Yeah it was the sharp turn with the step up lol I think she would’ve been fine if the jeep guy would’ve give us way. Usually the people going up have the right away but the guy kept going 🤦🏻♂️ Love bowman, we try to go up twice a year if we have time. Cheers 🍻
Sucks how busy and blown up it is now ,Facebook and RU-vid ruined it,but I'm glad to see your family enjoying it! It's definitely a sacred place, and we need to try to keep it that way.
There’s a little door you can take off. You can then use something like a box or half of a cup to block the initial flow of oil so it doesn’t go everywhere. Then replace it with a fumoto valve if you’d like
This video is how I found out they only sent me two relocation brackets, so now my front end is torn apart and I can’t finish until I get the other bracket. Do you have to have the part by the passenger side bolted down?
Tbh I’m not 100% sure, I’d ask the cali raised guys to see if they would be an issue in the mean time, I would think structurally the front ones are the most important.
Ok thanks for the reply. Now for some reason my bolts don’t line up exactly with the holes so I gotta figure that out. Did you have any issues getting on the 6 bolts? Me and my neighbor just wrestled with it for 30 minutes before calling it a night
I’ve had the same one for years & it works great. Only issue is the air gauge broke very early on which is a bummer. Don’t rely on it to be accurate, always have a traditional gauge in your rig.
Glad I found this solution I installed an S&B intake today but my Redline tuning strut doesn't fit on the passenger side. Thanks for the install video. Just ordered my single strut kit.
@@RoamWithJon Hit me up next time you go out. I went Frank Raines a couple weeks ago. Got my first scratches. I plan on going through SWAT Customs in Fremont for my Bilstein lift, steel grill and winch.
Which lights? Usually we run chase lights to let the person behind know how much space they have, and ditch lights or light bars to let the person in from know if they lost someone in the dust. The front lights also let people coming from the opposite direction know we’re coming up.
I haven’t any issues with scratching. If you want to I suppose you could lay a microfiber across where the straps would make contact and where the buckles are. I hated sleeping diagonally or curled up in a ball lmao. My only downside is it does kinda get floppy when it’s windy. But I figured out if I push a backpack up against it, it got rid of that issue.
