    Cook Partner stove FAQ / Master thread

    The grill is stainless. Soak in citric acid for vinegar for a bit and go at it with stainless scrubbies and soap. The aluminum, be careful with hard abrasives and even scotchbrite pads. They can rub off the top layer and make "black" stuff. Soap, mild vinegar and warm water. If you must, wax to...

    School me on the subject of dc dc charging at 12v system.

    I'm not sure I follow. I've never seen an alternator that is hard to replace, but I'm sure they exist. Vast majority of alternators can take a 20 amp draw out of the box, 40 amp might cause issues but you really should be doing a 40a DC DC if you're going to the effort. Installing a solar...

    Water purification, LED UV, specifics....

    On the pump part, just match the flow rating of the pump and filter and you should be good. We freeze our own blocks in a Clinebell, the same units ice sculptors use. The idea is high quality water and "directional freezing" meaning a cold plate that freezes from the bottom, pushing gas...

    Stress on your alternator? Upgrade your alternator. There are no cons. Do it. Before solar.

    Going back to SMB.... 7.3L vs Bulletproofed 6.0L....

    Not sure what everybody is smoking. 7.3 all day. I've owned a V10 a 6.0 and three 7.3s, one of which I sold at 455k miles without an overhaul and zero blow by. Hydra tuned, bigger turbo, don't even touch the injectors and youre at 600 ft lbs of torque. And I'm not sure which world you drive...

    Dodge Ram 5.7 Power Wagon questions

    Been watching out for a 2013 specifically as well. I've owned a few 5.7's before. I think they pretty much figured out the valve problems by 09. Yes they eat exhaust bolts but I have never seen a V8 gas engine that doesn't. I think the main advantage of the third gen is they have a very tight...

    10+ Truck Camper Mods and upgrades

    Still for the life of me don't understand why people put valuable stuff strapped to the outside of their rigs. I know they look cool, but the "steal me" display is wild.

    2022 RAM 5500 Composite "Super Camper"

    Stench, I have some Buckstop steelies and would love to hear your feedback on them when you're ready. Seem fine to me but heavy suckers. Next buy will be Justin's one piece rims. I'll just suck it up and pay for the real thing. His larger Centramatics have been a godsend on my MPT setup. Great...

    It’s Baaaack! The Durango P/Up is resurrected!

    Stellanis is fundamentally broken. Scariest words in the auto market: Stellanis EV of any flavor. Simple gasser or go home with those clowns. That said I'd love to see the Dakota come back.
