What's the deal with the NATO fuel cans? I have a new 1/4-ton trailer that I'm modifying for camping and am starting to look for fuel and water cans. I want something fairly heavy-duty that doesn't leak and that is easy to use. I don't care much about the guvment's regulations or legality of...

Can any of these portable "camp fire rings" be used for cooking or anything other than providing a simulated campfire at night?

ANOTHER GREAT COMPANION TO THE EXPEDITION SHOWER MAT Just today I saw this "companion table" to the "expedition shower mat." You can easily use pressure-treated decking balusters again, and it looks like you could use dowel rods or threaded rod to keep it all together. From the pictures, it...

PS Thanks to "Expedition Ops" for the idea!

Pictures of do-it-yourself "expedition" shower mat Here are some pics of our homemade "expedition" shower mat (the expedition moniker still makes me chuckle :) ). I just couldn't see paying $120 for a camp shower mat... For the handle, I just wove together pieces of the bungees that...

I saw this very neat camping shower mat several weeks ago: http://www.expeditionops.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=170. It was listed for $119, and the price made me start thinking... I had a few left over decking balusters...

My vote goes to IronMan4x4 for their 275-amp dual battery setup I researched most all of the dual battery kits out there and decided on the IronMan4x4 275-amp dual battery kit http://www.ironman4x4.com/html/motorised275amp.html. The kits from National Luna and HellRoaring tie for a close...

Thanks, but I'm just interested in the bolt-on rotor and caliper brake upgrades for a 1/2-ton Chevrolet/GMC truck. Does anyone out there have any part numbers or has anyone successfully upgraded their 2000-2004 model year trucks with the Suburban or 3/4-ton brake parts?

$1,200 is cheap. The M416s I've seen in great condition are in the $2,000 - $2,500 range. http://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/for/2980164652.html I'd go ahead and grab it!

If anyone has done this conversion, please let me know the part numbers, whether or not you noticed any real braking improvement, and your bottom line cost once you got everything bolted back up. T H A N K S !

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN the "SUBURBAN BRAKE UPGRADE" FOR 1/2-TON CHEVY/GMCs I'm looking to replace the front brakes and rotors on a 2001 Chevy Silverado Z-71 1/2-ton 4x4 truck. The brakes on it are fine, but who couldn't use better brakes, especially if the parts are OEM and bolt...

I honestly haven't had any issues with the breaking performance of our now 11 year old truck. Are the "performance" rotors the same diameter as stock rotors off of 2001 Chevrolet Silverado 1/2-ton Z71, or are the performance rotors larger? I'm using OEM brake pads as I've never had another set...

I need to replace a set of warped brake rotors on our 2001 Chevy Z-71. It's a 1/2 ton, and when I tow, I tow HEAVY loads. I replaced the brake pads at 125,000 miles. Can you believe it?! Of course I replaced the brake pads with the same type of pads that came on it, but I want to get some...

What's the "Suburban brake upgrade"?

Yes, it really sucks when you can't find what you're looking for. To add insult to injury, the Tallowpot.com guy, Nathaniel, so me the wrong risers. A set of 4 (four) correct risers for the FJ40 is $120. Yes, that really sucks...

We're in need for some roof rack crossbars like these shown in the pictures. We ordered them from "Tallowpot Products" http://www.tallowpot.com/products.html which has since gone out of business. There's got to be some more like it somewhere out there. Maybe some of you Rover guys out there...

Like you, I researched and read a lot about isolators and dual battery kits. I settled on a 275-amp dual battery kit from Ironman4x4.com http://www.ironman4x4.com/html/motorised275amp.html. I am VERY pleased with the kit. I installed the switch in a full-size Chevrolet Silverado pickup and...
