    MaxTrax vs Pull-Pal

    Pull-pal is FAR more versatile. Not even close in my opinion.

    Hannibal 1.4M RTT for sale $1000 NEW Jumbo kit, $650

    We've decided to sell the 1.4M Hannibal RTT we bought a couple years ago. Price is $1000. Tent is in flawless condition with the exception of two small slits in the travel cover, which have never bothered us and I haven't fixed, although it's easy to do. In addition, I could include, or...

    Unimog Ex-Po Camper

    Unfortunately it will be many years before the U4000 can be imported into the US. That doesn't stop me from wanting one though!

    Camp Shower Showdown

    I have to say after purchasing a Helton shower unit from Kurt / Cruiser Outfitters, I can't imagine anything competing with it. We fitted short lines onto the heat exchanger with quick connect fittings on them, which are secured right on the passenger fender well under the hood. It takes less...

    Tyres for expedition use on a 1300L

    In my opinion there is no better Mog tire than the XM-47. I ran them on my 416. While the chevron tractor tread may LOOK like it doesn't run well on pavement, it's actually the straightest, smoothest rolling Mog tire I've experienced. They are very well made, balance perfectly, wear well, and...

    What Is The Best Topo Map App For iPad

    A few thoughts: The camera kit SD card reader in an un-jailbroken iPad will only recognize image formats, and I believe it's impossible to retain the geo positioning data imbedded in the geo-PDF format in a conversion to an image file, and without the geo data the maps will be useless in a GPS...

    What Is The Best Topo Map App For iPad

    To be clear, you only need an external GPS with the non-3G model. There has been extensive analysis on this forum regarding the viability of the built-in GPS in the 3G model. I've now used mine extensively in an area very unfriendly to GPS signal reception, dense tree cover in mountainous...

    A mini laptop or Ipad as my trail GPS?

    In my humble opinion the ease of user interface provided by the iPad can not be competed with by any netbook. HEMA, PDFMaps, TopoMaps, MotionX, any of those do anything Delorme or any other Windows based software can, with the ease of zooming / panning with your fingers, VERY handy while...

    Latest Photo?

    Thought I'd post a few more pics of my 62. I believe it to now be the narrowest 62 in existence, after numerous body adjustments compliments of trees and other immovable objects. I'm impressed that 37" IROKs fit with only minimal wheel well trimming, and the original 4" MAF lift.

    Immaculate Unimog 416 DOKA w 20 sp transmission FOR SALE

    It has come time to part with my beloved Mog. My wife and I are expecting our first child, and I'm slowly accepting the fact that I won't have time to play with the mog. I hope it goes to a good home. Here are the specs: 1970 416 DOKA LIST PRICE $29,500 Link to photos...

    Come-along

    I agree. As I said before, solo expedition travel makes a come a long very useful. If you're out for the day with a bunch of friends trying to get stuck, no way you're going to pull out the come a long with another vehicle and winch nearby. But if you're in the middle of no where by your self...

    Tire chains, snow, mud, and airing down.....

    I'd say that about sums it up. If you can run on top of the snow, single digit pressure absolutely. If it's not snow pack, and you're chewing through it to ground below, chains help tremendously. I'm always amused by people expecting tremendous performance from a lifted jeep on swampers on...

    Come-along

    Yes, tire chains deserve an honorable mention as well.

    Come-along

    Yes, both the Power Puller and the Lug Alls are just about bombproof. And synthetic line should be easily retrofitted to any existing come a long, you just may need to mod the drum slightly to facilitate attaching the dead end.

    Come-along

    I've spent my life jerry rigging solutions for rigging, logging, arborist work, wheeling, and all sorts of other redneck activities. I've never been able to figure out why a come a long isn't a critical part of every wheeler's recovery gear. I wouldn't leave home without one. The models I'd...
