  1. XVENTURE TRAILERS

    Carrying an ATV

    I've done extensive testing to develop safe ways for this type of transport. The most dangerous thing about this one is high speed accident avoidance maneuvers on highway. Say someone slams on their brakes in front of you at 65mph on the freeway, or you need to turn sharply to avoid an obstacle...

    Anyone have an XVenture by Schutt Ind ?

    Congrats on your XV acquisition. That trailer is like new barely used from what I can see. Eric must have been bummed to see it go. Welcome to the club. Now you can "Be a Part of the Legend" too. Let me know if you need anything.

    Best Awning?

    Yes it is. Might be a little different but both use excellent rip-stop material with taped seams. Just different colors between the two brands. I mounted a Foxwing on my 01 Suburban with mini-van-rear-door and I can open the door 2/3rds of the way to get access to the fringe and drawers. But I...

    Anyone have an XVenture by Schutt Ind ?

    Sway on an XVENTURE is very uncommon. If you are getting trailer sway you are way too tail heavy. I recommend you always travel with the water tanks full. Load the fridge up with some goodies and drinks and put a couple Jerry's up against the stowed galley table. If you are hauling a heavy hitch...

    Anyone have an XVenture by Schutt Ind ?

    Here are some examples of how to do it. Hitch Rack is best if it designed to utilize the right and left most rear receivers.

    Gobi Stealth or Rhino Rack Backbone

    Thing is, for larger items like Kayaks, once the top is off you can simply use the vehicles Roll Bar to mount to.

    Best Awning?

    You can not use a 270 degree awning on a vehicle with a hatch-back style rear door. In this case you need to use a straight-out awning and can only shade the side of the vehicle.

    Best Awning?

    Then there's the Rhino Rack Foxwing, which is by far the awning to own under $800. No other awning product in this price range on the market at this time will provide you with this much versatility or shelter. If any of you follow me out there you know what a big fan I am of the propane fire...

    Best Awning?

    For a straight out rectangular awning the ARB is definitely the best value on the market today. It's has the largest coverage and the best selection of accessories compared to any other awning of this type. The Awning Room add on shown here is an exceptional value at under $269 and offers a...

    OK4WD is a great shop. Highly recommended. I think the Backbone install yourself is doable. If you haven't seen it yet, here is the quick video I shot of the very firs Backbone install to take place in the USA. Might give you and idea of what you are in for...

    Well, that was my attempt at a little humor based on this year's mud pit.

    Gobi Stealth or Rhino Rack Backbone

    Removing the rack, then the hard top, then re-installing the rack seems quite the chore. Frankly I wouldn't expose the interior of my new JK to all that dirt. That said, the AEV Rack for JK offers the functionality you speak of. Rhino Rack actually makes the unit for AEV. It is the Pioneer...

    99 West Trailers 13565 SW Tualatin Sherwood Rd #700 Sherwood, OR 97140 Phone:(503) 537-9103 Contact John Bender. He should have these in stock ready for immediate installation. The Rhino Rack Pioneer Tray with Backbone Mounting System is a much better design than the Front Runner.
