    2-Door JK JeepKitchen - AT Chaser - Globetrotter - National Luna build thread

    Propex and Teraflex So, the reason I blew all the money on the Teraflex hinges and rack...was pretty much to change everything over to propane (from white-gas) and have a place to sit the Propex heater this fall and be able to open the gate (to access kitchen and fridge) in the evening without...

    2-Door JK JeepKitchen - AT Chaser - Globetrotter - National Luna build thread

    New propane setup Today I got around to installing the new propane tanks and associated parts. I like the way it turned out and it seems to work well. I didn't get around to posting some parts. A Teraflex HD hinge, tire mount, and Alta rack have been added in the last few months. The propane...

    Horizontal propane cylinder questions. I need a propane expert

    Huh? I hope not. Now you have my worried again. :) As of now I think it's a vapor use tank with a liquid vertical fill inlet. Am I wrong? I appreciate all the input.

    Horizontal propane cylinder questions. I need a propane expert

    Thanks for all the answers guys. Lots of info! I went out to the shop and putzed around...read all the labels...and everything above sounds correct to me. I'll go ahead with the mounting this weekend. At Noon tomorrow I'll run down to the propane guy to make sure he can attach to the fill...

    Horizontal propane cylinder questions. I need a propane expert

    Hi All, I just purchased a Worthington 308970 horizontal propane tank from Amazon. I intend to mount it to the side of a Teraflex Alta rack on my JK. I run a Propex heater, Partner stove, and sometimes a propane camp fire (during stage 2 fire restrictions). So, after some testing I've found that...

    Looking For A Very Long RTT

    I see that James Baroud is now offering a Space XXL. 89 long, 64 wide, and 52 high on one end. I have the standard Space and have to sleep diagonally in it (I'm 6 ft tall)....but I tend to put my arms over my head and stretch out. I really like this tent (in standard length). The XXL is very...

    Regular RTT vs. Trailer specific RTT

    Somehow I wound up with both. I like my trailer/Globetrotter with vestibule for daytime. It's a good place to hang out when it's rainy, good place to store gear you use throughout the day, a good place for siestas, to change clothes, and to put a porta potty if you take female company. But, I...

    4XPEDITION 2017 Subaru Outback Overland Road Warrior build

    How is this project coming along? We have a 2016 Outback with an RTT...and after spending 10 grand trying to get my Jeep to carry an RTT comfortably (and failing), I think I'm going to start building the Suby for a camping rig too.

    Eezi-Awn Stealth hard shell RTT

    I'm thinking about putting one of these on an AT Chaser. Anyone happen to know the minimum ladder height? From the look of it, it won't "go" short enough for a trailer?

    Recommend me a RTT: Hard shell, fully open, XL, w/ annex?

    Rino, be sure to mention how this mystery annex works with a Space Evo... (if it will work with the Space). I might have found my next toy!

    Convince me I need a fridge!

    LOL Or,... "Extra $ in wallet for electronical fridgitator = camping easy!!! But, mostest electronical requirement for Mr. Car = YUCKY-POO-GROSS!" Seriously though, last weekend we took the camper out (meaning that the Wifey wanted to come along). To pull the camper, I needed to take a rig that...

    Fiberglass travel trailer experiences? (Casita, Scamp, Escape, and others)

    Just for reference, we have a 13 foot Scamp. It is a pretty little thing, but for the most part, it will only go where a Subaru Outback will go. I usually find that the last 100 feet into popular camping sites results in a very real fear of gutting the camper on bumps in the road. We previously...

    Convince me I need a fridge!

    I agree that this was the biggest plus when buying a portable fridge. Load at your convenience the week before...remove from the truck and plug it into 120 volt when you return. That...and no more wasted groceries. No soggy bread. No "mushy" cheese. Also found that when going camping on short...

    Hammock inside an ambulance?? Can anyone school a complete hammock noobie

    I have a couple of backpacking hammocks that I've played around with for a couple of years...and I don't know if it's going to work for you (inside a rig). My regular (banana-style) hammock requires at least 10 feet of span to hang correctly, and to keep me a foot off the floor, it needs to be...

    Strongest rear tire carrier for JK

    When I was waiting for the Teraflex HD hinge, I had my spare 35 KM2 on the roof rack. My Jeep kitchen took all the space in the back of the Jeep and I couldn't fit the spare inside. But, I'm in the process of moving all my cooking gear to the trailer. It would be cool if there was a spare mount...

    Overland fridge/freezer or just fridge?

    An update. I sold the ARB47 without really trying it while Overlanding. The NL Weekender has been a great unit. As it happens, you can fit an NL 50 Weekender in a JeepKitchen if you are comfortable with modifying the drawer slides with a die grinder & combining it with the NL locking plate. The...

    Strongest rear tire carrier for JK

    An update....though I really (in my heart) wanted the LOD Destroyer setup because it looks awesome, I went with the Teraflex HD and installed it a couple of weekends back. That thing is hella solid! I think I'll add the Alta rack in a couple of months. Interesting fact. If you install the...

    Apple WWDC 2017 Announcement Discussions

    I am the "Apple Guy" at a good-sized Enterprise facility (for my area). We have ~140 Apple computers of all shapes and sizes and ages on campus that I keep patched and running. In my opinion, since Jobs passed, Apple has been slowly morphing towards Microsoft's ethos...and Microsoft is doing...
