    ARB sliding drawer (new)

    *** SOLD *** This is a new ARB sliding drawer for the 37 or 50 quart ARB refrigerator freezers. I bought it when I got my fridge but went a different route for mounting the fridge and have never used it. Quadratec has it listed for $350, I'd like to get $300 and will include shipping in the US.

    Next order of business is to figure out how to get this into this Looks like I have to remove about 2" from the stove The drawer was made to hold a Partner stove but I'd like to keep away from propane. Anyone ever disassembled a Colman stove?

    Sure-Fire Ways to Improve Your Roof Top Tent

    Why would one need a solar panel while driving as the alternator can recharge the batteries? I guess I could understand if you used a trailer with its own battery system but on a vehicle with dual batteries?

    Stage II sits right behind the front passenger seat and in front of stage 1 and requires the removal of the 3/4ths rear seat. Stage 1 and Stage II make a flat platform from the tailgate to behind the front passenger seat that one can sleep on if desired. By itself it is another storage...

    Thanks Their kit isn't cheap but it's well thought out and top quality. For example, keeping the passenger seat that's behind the driver seat for "guides". I had thought of removing both rear seats until I remembered some counties require guides and therefore a place to sit.

    In need of advice: Which JKU to buy

    While not inexpensive, I'm been using a Gobi Stealth rack for my RTT. I originally went with it so that I could run without a top in the summer. The rack has been very stable and handles a RTT well. The built in ladder makes it real easy to get on top, although, climbing up the rear tire would...

    I've been home only a day or two after leaving on Dec 14th to head down to Baja for a little vacation in the sun. It wasn't all play as I stopped off at Adventure Trailers in Prescott AZ to have them install their Stage I & II storage system while I flew off to North Carolina for work. I had...

    Prior to heading down to Baja I added 2 Alu-boxes from Equipt Expedition Outfitters. These ended up fitting perfectly in front of the RTT. Either box can be opened from the side making it easy to access their content. When I get home and the weather warms up I'll bolt them to the rack. (Sorry...

    I was in the same position a year ago. My decision may have been swayed to the JKU since I owned as CJ5 years ago but I'm glad I went with another Jeep. The new motor is everything you read about, plenty of power and the MPG isn't that bad. I saw 16 MPG on my way to Prescott. If I remove the...

    Big day for the JKUR I parked her at Adventure Trailers today to have them install their storage system. The other JKUR in the picture had the same setup installed and was coming back for some modifications. I can't wait to she how it looks when I return. Then, it's down to Baja for a test run...

    AGM Battery maintenance/charging for dummies?

    Finished wiring up the National Luma dual battery controller. Since I have a winch I upgraded the wiring to 2 gage as suggested by National Luma (Thanks dstock for pointing that out.) I though the supplied 4 gage was thick but these guys are monsters. There is not a lot of space around those...

    M.O.R.E. dual battery tray I finally had time to work on the M.O.R.E. dual battery tray today. Getting it installed took me a little over half a day. The biggest problem was keeping the wires out of the way while removing the old tray and installing the new M.O.R.E. tray. It is definitely...

    Nice idea for that floor space. I've been trying to decide what to do with the backend of the JKU. We've have the rear seats out all summer and didn't miss them. They are going to stay out as I've decided to get the JK Habitat Stage 1 & 2 storage solution installed from Adventure Trailers. I've...

    AEV 17x8.5 Savegre Wheels Received a set of 5 AEV 17x8.5 Savegre wheels the other day. I had ordered a set of Bridgestone Blizzaks for my winter tires so I had those mounted on the stock rims. The original BFGoodrich tires went on the Savergre wheels. I'll need to order some black lug nuts as...

    IPhone 5s as photographer's tool

    I think we would all agree that la DSLR can produce high end (technical) photos. But, if you know the iPhone limitations (or a DSLR limitations) and learn how to work with your equipment then either can produce good results. Can I create a ****ty iPhone image, yes. Can I produce a ****ty DSLR...

    IPhone 5s as photographer's tool

    I think it comes down to what media you want to present the image on. If it's a moble device or an email then an iPhone will work, even if it's a treasured picture. If you are talking print, and I mean more than a 4x5, then you want a DSLR or a large format film camera.

    IPhone 5s as photographer's tool

    So true. Photographers of years past didn't have digital cameras. I'm sure you can find some "real" photographers that would only consider the real media to be film. In the end, it's about what image you captured and not the equipment.
