    RTT why so much $$$$

    I like the thinking here in the ability to fab up something... I too have a desire to do a one off of my own, because what I feel I need in a RTT is not being offered in the states at this time. Oz has a pot load, but no way or desire at the moment to get that product here. That being said, it...

    Build a one off tent for trailer?

    That is in the neighbor hood of what I'm looking for, but with a much lower deck height and I a little more room in the bottom area. A couple of Aussie companies make something close, or maybe right on, it's getting it here that seems to be.... well other worldly. Mayne PS I might even be able...

    New here, with some questions:

    I was researching something for the jeep TJ in the area of dana 44 chevy outers via Reid knuckles.... And i think for that kind of money the TJ 44 or 30front ends are the right width for rangers. I know the ride might not be as plush, but the coilover 3 or 4 link would maybe require less...

    Build a one off tent for trailer?

    I've talked to a few over the phone in the south bay. I must not be traveling north for enough, as all I got were straight out no's. It's seems that anything out of the box is silly speak for a lot of craftsman type companies. I guess I can't blame them, as the money is not in one offs. Thanks...

    Build a one off tent for trailer?

    Does anyone know a canvas company that does one off's? Price will be high I know, but anything fitting my needs to my M416 is in Oz, and well....(********** that horse one more time for good measure). I can fab a frame, no issue, I know nothing about sewing up canvas to keep the wild out. Hell...

    How many have Stingers on the Front

    Sorry to hear your too gimped to fab... I built a set of 2x5 1/4wall bumps for the TJ for less than 500. thats with swing out. 150 to 200 was bought pre machined stuff, as I don't have a mill or lathe.(sp?) Heck I think 50 of that was shipping heavy parts. I'll get some pics up sometime. They...

    Swing-Out Tire Carrier Kit

    I built the rear swing out, tire/gas carrier on my TJ. I went with alot of overkill on my build. I used a 1750lb spindle set up, and a 1/4 wall bumper. I had to grind down two side of the shank and pound the spindle into the bumper. The swing outs 3/16 wall, and even with that I get vibration. I...

    Keeping warm in the tent

    I use a portable buddy heater. Works good in both my fathers tent, during hunting season, and my tent the rest of the year. Both tents are 100sq ft of floor space or better. Fire it up before bed and shut it off before sleeping, warms everything up, repeated in the morning to take the chill off...

    two person cot? does it exist?

    Yeah I've seen this set up on the net, is there a way to get rid of the tent part of it? I have a tent, and well my two dogs are spoiled. One will not stand to be out of line of sight, the other may be okay with it, too soon to tell. Thanks Mayne

    two person cot? does it exist?

    Does anyone know of a double or full or queen size camp beding arangement. I've done the air mattress thing, (coleman) and all the surgically corrected bits (shoulder and back) scream after three hours. I have a cabelas cot and foam pad that does wonders, but the better have still likes to...

    Anybody seen these trailers.

    http://web.mac.com/amberalder/iWeb/Site%208/LE-400.html the company is called Rough Out Products. I like the light weight of the idea, granted not as sturdy as an AT or military unit, but having two dogs that think they are kids has me looking for family style sleeping. the big thing I don't...

    Trak Shak Offroad Trailers (from OZ)

    I would love it if there was some way to get that kind of tent configuration for an existing trailer in the U.S., say an M416/101canadian. Mayne

    AEV Hemi Conversion!

    Unless AEV changed their minds, they are not offering a diesel swap. They found the task to be too much of a headache to offer commercially. And the Dodge version is a no go for California. Mayne

    Camp Kitchen?

    Might not fit in a car, but that would look awfully nice in my trailer. construction of that unit doesn't look all that hard, I may try building one for myself. I can't see spending the shipping from Oz to get one. Mayne

    Tent top for trailers

    Oztent has something to the effect of their small tent on a platform atop a trailer. I keep tossing that idea around. Mayne

    Lifting a stock Wrangler - Questions ????

    Although I agree with the price of a puck lift, I've heard with a TJ of the '97 vintage, it's probably better to replace the springs. The coils tend to sag after many years. My 05 carries a good amount of weight with bumpers, racks, hand top, winch, and the stock bouncy bits need help already...
