I haven't been on here in a while but figured this would be a good place to get some help. I purchased this trailer tonight with the plan of setting it up for kayaks. (specs - 3.5'x5' box and 3' tongue which is 2"x3" tubing, 2000lbs axle and 225lbs weight) The main problem is it is way to...

Well, I am finally getting bit by the 4x4 bug again. I sold my jeep a while back after running into some issues with it (and then got married, bought a house, had a baby, and bought another house). I got a great deal on an 06 Durango that is loaded and am looking to do some small mods for back...

I spilled some gas on mine http://www.youtube.com/watch?list=UUaLQfR7c5T-932j-dL4bKcg&feature=player_detailpage&v=ykfLa4N9gIc That's right, Canada no longer has a firearms registry for non-restricted firearms (shotguns/rifles) :victory:

Having some issues with my truck, it's a 2002 dodge dakota quad cab 2wd with the 4.7 V8 and auto transmission. I'm getting the code "no bus" on the odometer, and the security light comes on. The fuel pump isn't kicking in and there is no spark. The fuel pump does work (jumped the relay and...

Took out my shotgun for the first time and shot a little vid with my gopro

My 28 day waiting period is up tomorrow for my non-restricted gun license (license still has to be mailed out though). I heard there was an open house at the local range so I thought I would go check it out. I got to shoot quite a bit (colt 45, ruger 10/22, sks, Mosin-Nagant M91/30, and a few...

Anyone doing it? I occasionally use my tonneau so don't want to get rid of it (came with the truck and is pretty much new). I was wondering about maybe putting a piece of angle iron under the bed rail Velcro stuff and bolting a rack, that could be removed, to that. My only concern is the...

I have done a little research and some talking to my brother who is also looking into buying a shot gun (he already has a Remington bolt action rifle). I am defiantly a newb into the gun world civi side but have been military for the past 7 years so I have fired your bassic AR series stuff...

I'm having trouble finding any after market bumpers for my 2002 dodge dakota. I figured there be at least a few but I can't find any. I'd prefer a prerunner style looking bumper with hitch receiver (for my receiver mounted winch) but at this point I guess I can't be too picky. Having one...

I've always roughed it while camping (basic tent/sleep in vehicle, minimal gear etc) but last year I finally talked my wife into going camping with me. We slept in our jeep liberty with a foam mat and didn't have our two small dogs with us. I also had a military trailer all our gear was in...

and I don't mean winch or recovery strap. I'm talking about those little things that make life easy, those trick items, the thing that no one else on the trail has/thinks to bring. Mine would have to be my portable co2 set up. I still carry a compressor but its a good back up and its also 10x...

Anyone catch xtreme 4x4 today? They announced/started a new project, a budget Cherokee. They didn't do much on it but it looks like it will be a good build.

I did some searches and didn't see anything like this so thought I'd start one. The idea is to post up the uses of ammo cans (on your rig or not) and dimensions/pics of them. 5.56mm/50cal can 12" X 6 1/8" X 7 1/4" M249(US)/C9(Canada) (30cal?) - 10" x 7" x 3' "fat .50" - 12" X 6 3/4" X 8...

I just picked up a bunch of new cases to organize my stuff. I want to keep all my gear in them so what I'm ready to go, I can literally load it up and go. I already have my first aid/ stuff in two bags (one "basic" first aid kit and another for cold weather survival) I also carry all my...

Just wondering who carries back boards with them on typical outings. I can get one for free but don't know if it would be worth having. The biggest issue I have is if I came across someone with a neck/back problem I would just make sure they don't move (until someone qualified arrives to handle...

Well I had a good find at work. Got some new boxes to store my gear in. A few different sizes and they have foam inside that can easily be removed. They are aluminum frame and latches with wood sides with special coating/paint. They are also water tight. The best part is they were free (I...

I'm considering one of these for my next build platform. (I can't seem to keep a vehicle for more than a year for some reason but hoping to change that with my next non-dd rig). I like that these come with solid axles front and rear, dana 44 front and 9.25 rear (both strong and easily...

Hi, my wife and I just bought out the lease on our liberty this summer but have had a few changes in life (have another new car and I got a truck I wanted) so the liberty has to go. Its a 2006 rocky mountain edition with 99,000km, overall its in good shape no dents/scratches, the front...

Well after a lot of searching and almost starting on a custom trailer build I finally found a military trailer. It's an M101 CDN 2 in pretty good shape that I ended up driving 7 hours total to get. Right now the plans are to convert the 24 volt to 12 volt, build a plywood lid, paint (olive...

Does anyone know off hand the distance from the ground to hitch (in order to sit level) Looking at buying an M101 cdn and need to know how much off I am. thanks
