Alright, I'm going to be lengthening and widening a roof rack that I have, and want to go with gutter mounts. I've used Yakima 1A towers before on another custom rack I built, but they are expensive. I've thought about using the Quik 'n Easy mounts, but the 7-3/8" version is too high for my...

I would say the same. Specter has a wealth of info and parts to boot; nevermind what you read on other boards about the customer service; they've been top notch in my dealings with them.

I got to talking with my Dad about the tables, and we agreed that the darker of the two is about 14 years old, and the pine one is 11 years old or so. We typically use the cross pieces as a place to set picnic baskets and things of that nature, and then cover the table with a large blanket if...

Thanks for the kind words gents! Building these is super easy, and would be a great father/son/daughter project for a weekend.

Mr. Stephens' thread on his wonderfully crafted cocktail table reminded me of the two tables that my father and I made nigh on ten years ago. While they are not made of a fancy hardwood, nor encased in hand sewn canvas bags, they are self enclosed, rugged, and period correct(if you participate...

Similar goals for my 80. Need to see how it wheels, and what kind of tire I'll need to keep up with me, but aside from the rack and fridge, and a sweet Hella work light, that sucka is staying simple like an antelope hunter :D

The bear was attracted to a few empty water bottles in the back seat of their car. Once in, the bear tore through the rear seat to get to an air freshener in the trunk.

MrGrimm, our's is a Kelty TC 2.1

Remember how the nice Ranger said there was a two year old bear in the area that like to check the camp ground out...he wasnt joking. Bear Paw marks: Bear Evidence...all for an air freshener and a water bottle: The next morning we headed farther in to Sequoia and walked among giants...

As I said, we leave Monday, and there was so much of California that we hadnt seen. We left on a thursday up to Lancaster to see Louis and Lindsay of FourbyLand fame. We'll see you three elsewhere, and thank you for a good night of King's Cup....keep rowing. From there, we headed up the 14, and...

DV would not conquer me...although I think my Jeep was afraid. After a quick few emails, and a kitchen pass, I met up with this nefarious group. Let me tell you this, driving through Death Valley to Saline Springs, sans experience, accompanied by this: (three plugs) Is not something I...

We're leaving California on Monday. This was suppossed to be our "Farewell California" trip, but after taking a look at the past two years here, and some of the good friends we've made, California will forever be part of our lives, even if we don't live here. As much a "Trip" thread as a...

Now why do you have to screw up a perfectly good LC shot with you cheezy mug in it? Good to hear the rig is back and functioning, and as others have said, great photos. G

Well, we just got back from our camping trip, and most was in bear country. In Sequoia NP, we used the bear boxes for our dry food box, and our cooking box, as well as our dop kits. At night, I left my Engel in the rig, and covered the entire back of the vehicle with a blue tarp. This broke...

Dave....it is in his garage dude...:D

Good choice...myself being a new Cruiser owner. Around the next time I hit up Handlebars? I'll buy a beer from the the Mason Jars.

Understandable on the pump concerns...hadnt actaully thought of that. You'll need to introduce Tiff and I(and our daughter) to Mexico once we are on Flagstaff. See you in a few weeks!!

I do not know if he is still around Andy, but there was a guy at Sound Pro in east Flag that brewed his on bio-diesel. KNAZ did a story on him several years ago. Dude has three or four various diesels; VW Bus, Troopy, PuP, Rabbit....don't know if it would be worth your time to check in to...

Graham, it isnt too late; I'll see if I can snag a thermometer and take some readings for you. Gavin

I'll be headed up to Sequoia and Yosemite next week, and have been following this thread for a bit. With my experiences with how well the Engel cools, and keeps cool, overnight should not be a problem in the bear box. Additionally, I have the Transit Bag, so no need for extra blankets of...
