    Ark articulating hitch

    Does anyone here have any experience with the Australian built Ark articulating hitches? If so, how well do you like it? I'm very familiar with Lock 'n' Roll and Max-coupler. But I haven't been able to find much info on the Ark.

    Service/Utility box trailer project

    This is my latest trailer acquisition. I found it not far from where I live. Based on a few items I've found in the compartments, I think it was used by an electrician. It's not a service body meant for a truck, but was built as a trailer. A truck service body would not have had the forward...

    Engel MT60 problem

    My Engel MT60 recently quit working. The motor/compressor doesn't start. It endlessly cycles trying to start. A humming sound as if the motor is receiving power but won't start. After several seconds it stops and then after a short delay it tries again. It's like a capacitor start motor...

    Thule parts and service

    Does anyone here know how to get parts or service from Thule? I have a cargo box that needs a new latch. Just a simple part. I located their website, and sent them an email inquiring about the part. They didn't even have the courtesy to reply. But I still need a latch. JP

    Wildernest - FINALLY!!

    I have been watching for a Wildernest camper for a couple of years now, without success. But that all changed the other day when I ran across one on Craigslist that was advertised as a canopy with a tent. No mention of Wildernest, but the really bad photo sure looked like one. It was buried in a...

    FWC for sale in Oregon

    I was surfing the CL ads last night and spotted this. The title on the ad is "Lite weight camper," with no indication of what it is. So it's kind of flying under the radar of people looking for a FWC. http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/rvs/1374898432.html JP

    SRW conversion

    I hesitate to ask such a seemingly ignorant question here, but what is the purpose of converting a DRW truck to SRW? I love my dual rears for their stability and weight carrying ability, but there must be some advantage to SRW when it comes to expedition vehicles. Please educate me...
