    I’m almost finished building my LiFoPo auxiliary battery and associated electrical. Now, I’ve got to figure out how to secure it in my JKU. My battery is going in a re-purposed plastic toolbox. Please share how you’ve done yours. Is a hard mount directly to the floor better? How about some...

    Which Fire Extinguisher?

    I want to carry 2: one in the front cabin where I can get to it quickly, and another in the back for my “kitchen”. I’ve heard to stay away from the popular dry chemical kind because over time the powder settles and cakes. I’m leery of the CO2 kind for health reasons. That leaves the AFFF, or...

    Oztent Owners Forum

    I can’t find one but wish I could. I recently sold my JV Signature in new condition after never using it. I bought an Oztent 1 with panels and fly which better suit for my situation.
