    How tall is too tall? And how long is too long for mild off road?

    Tired of sleeping on the ground. Have a little 4x6 cargo that I was going to out the stretch out to 8ft and make it a cargo camper with a kitchen in the back like a teardrop. I also have an interest in a larger cargo that I could put my motorcycle in and then use as a base camp. I ran across...

    Why do so many people build BOMBS out of their trailer projects?

    I'm researching for my next build and went through the sticky of builds and was shocked at how many people are putting propane tanks into enclosed areas without proper ventilation. :Wow1: Just a BAD idea on a Darwinian level. Hell there is a build thread where the tank is IN the galley...

    Sawzall serenade

    I'm having dirty thoughts about a 80's 4x4 Suburban, a Sawzall, welder, 12v Cummins and spitting something out that looks like a one of these on a suburban platform. http://www.innovation-campers.com/d_home.html There are several under $1000 4x4 subs that are rust free and straight for...

    I need Westfalia Measurements.

    I have some crazy idea. Find a bombed out Westy and get the camper parts in particular the roof top bed assembly and put it on something else. I don't know anybody with one to measure myself. Looking for overall length and width and length of just the lift section and what year it was on. I...

    86 4Runner build

    Well I have managed to get a few projects done on my truck. Thought I would start a build thread here since this site most reflects my direction with this truck.

    Sand ladder SCORE!

    One of the business in the same complex as the one I work for does industrial grating work. Stuff like raised work platforms in factory's and plants. They dive our dumpster all the time for crates we throw out. So we usually check if they need them now before we toss them. We had 10 or so...

    Mini Mag LED upgrade.

    Walking through Wally world and came across the flash light area. Got looking to at the LED flash lights to see what they had. They had a bunch of LED Conversion bulb assemblies that caught my eye. The big Mag conversion was nearly $20 but the Mini Mag 3 LED conversion was under $5. So I picked...

    Making ICE! (home made fridge)

    I sort of walked into a deal on some 24v AC units that were on some cabinets I was interested in. Little boogers are rated 986 BTU so really not powerful enough to cool and sizable space. Well I look up the compressors and it turns out these things will run 12v as well. Its the same brand...

    NO RUB either! The Uniroyalpeicesofjunks nearly rattled our teeth out last week going to FL. Wasn't really ready to put tires on but came across a sweet deal on a set of 4 95%+ 33x12.5x15 BFG KO's with two spares for $350 after a little haggling. Rodger at 4Crawler claims you can get that size...

    Thinking about an 80 for the wife, Questions

    The 90's 80's are down around a price I can live with. We have a situation in that we have 4 vehicles. (see sig). So I am considering an 80 to replace 1 or 2 of them. One day it may become my wheeling rig. We have an immaculate 1988 Suburban with 86,000 original miles. If you didn't know the...
