    Added some mud flaps. The last set was torn off by getting pulled into the tires so I added some tethers to prevent that.

    Just building my 200 Series.

    It has been while since I posted an update. Added a Trxstle fly rod carrier so I can carry my fly rods in one piece.

    Truck prep for the Dempster Highway

    Here is a link to all three parts of the TCT article on my Alaska -Canada trip. Since the border will be closed for a while perhaps reading about a trip might be the next best thing. Enjoy https://badlandsexpeditions.wordpress.com/2020/01/08/arctic-adventures-in-a-vintage-land-cruiser/

    I converted my trailer to operate off 110V shore power. I've used my trailer fridge, at home at times , as a freezer while plugged in. I also use shore power when we stay at a RV park in between wilderness camping. I have 250 watts of solar but charging an AGM battery with a battery charger...

    Polarity is always an issue with SAE plugs. There are gender bender adapters that are great to use and not have to rewire things.

    I'd call WFCO and ask them about the tripping the GFI. The same thing happened to my friend with a new trailer . It should not trip the GFI as it is only a battery charger . A RedArc Manager 30 is over $1200.00. A WFCO about $100.00 I'd just add a solar controller on the battery side of the...

    There are bugs everywhere. I added the table when I first bought the trailer. The table very useful. Since the fender is useless as a horizontal surface the table is a game changer . Since it is outside it gets dust on it but not as much as I would have thought . Easy to wipe off . There...

    1979 Unimog with Overland Trailer on BAT

    Nothing to do with like or not. Pointing out there does not seem to be a way to change a flat tire is just a rational observation. GLWS

    1979 Unimog with Overland Trailer on BAT

    Those tires seem mounted awful high for a couple of guys to just lift up. Those tires must weight at least 150lbs plus the weight of the wheels so over 200lbs. Just being held on the wall with three lug nuts. 25 K miles is not a lot of Global traveling. He says it comes with a high lift...
