      No, thank you for the help on the build! And for making such awesome springs. We have a set for our 2018 as well. And your customer service is second to none!

    Niice! I've been toying with picking up a 2001 or 2002 and building it out for off road and camping trips. Great to see someone using these for their intended purpose!

      Man oh man you totally should. Nothing drives like a G and you'll have a ton of fun with it.
      Check out ORC and Jackwagon for some fun inspiration. orc-shop.de/en/ and jackwagonoverlanding.com/

    Eurowise control arms are the best upgrade for a lifted W463. Keeps the steering straight, especially if you have the G63 power.

      So true. I ran it without them while waiting for them to ship. Oh boy it did not feel good!

    Love the build! Looking for a G wagon to build out soon.

      Thanks my dude. Glad to see you shopping for one. They are capable stock with just tires. A 2" lift and 33s will get you around everywhere you need to. We have a 2018 built like this and I'll do a walk around of it soon.
      Or you can go nuts :)
      Happy Shopping!

      Thanks my dude. It truly is a dream come true. I'll be doing another walk around for our 2018 Limted Edition soon!

    Looks good and still probably half the price of the new landcruiser.

    • @gwheeln
      @gwheeln  9 днів тому +2

      Right? And a V8... and triple locked... and a nicer interior!

    Good looking rig! Love my ‘09 G550 especially on the trails. How is your on board air set up? If your compressor is inside the rig, how did you run the airline to the rear? Thanks

    • @gwheeln
      @gwheeln  День тому

      Thanks dude. Stoked to see a fellow G wagon owner here. The onboard air is mounted to the frame under the rig. In an upcoming video you'll see it. It's tucked up nice and out of the way.

    Nice G build! Looking for a OM606 (97-99) here in Europe before heading back to the states.

      Man what a joy! If you need help importing one, talk to Joe at Alliance Auto Care in Loveland, CO. He's a buddy of mine (actually heading wheeling with him today). He imports a ton of them and was the 1st person to import a brand new diesel for a client.

    • @MatthewBrigham-1
      @MatthewBrigham-1 9 днів тому

      @ awesome! Thanks for the rec. hopefully I’ll find one in my price range. Have a good at wheeling!

    • @gwheeln
      @gwheeln  8 днів тому

      @MatthewBrigham-1 we sure did. Pics will be posted on the Community tab. And new Shorts incoming!!
      P.S. Also, check out Bring a Trailer for auctions when you're back in the US. Some great rigs getting posted there and a few folks in the G niche who post great rigs.

      @ I already have my BAT alerts set up 😁. Looking forward to exploring the states. Moving to northern AZ!

    • @gwheeln
      @gwheeln  5 днів тому

      You're on it! I love it man. I'll be rooting for you to find an amazing one. You also may want to call Joe at Alliance Auto Care in Loveland, CO. He's got a few of his customers selling some nice rigs right now and may be able to connect you with one.
      And congrats on the move!

    I have a 2016 G550 with that same android display. It's such a piece of garbage. I wish there were a better alternative.

    • @gwheeln
      @gwheeln  9 днів тому

      I couldn't agree more. I wish I didn't do it and just left it stock and got a cell phone mount! When it works it's nice, but man is it quirky...
