My feet are not wide but I find Keen hiking boots to be perfect for me.

Thanks, I ended up buying an ARB Fridge Freezer Series II 50 Quart before my trip to Black Bear Pass. My biggest need was space, so far my 100Ah LiFePO4 off grid power kit has kept it running 7 days (camping in one spot). The Bluetooth module is lacking for all but the basic stuff, but...

Apologies, sold it on Facebook within minutes.

I upgraded from a Dometic CFX3 37L fridge to a bigger fridge. I don’t need it anymore. Works fine, no damage or issues. I am in Plano, TX and am trying to get $450 for it, since it still sells for $950. Thought I’d post it here if anyone is interested. I am Including the their protective...

Wait. Wat?! JLU? <3<3<3 My 201 JLUR build: https://revkit.com/donmontalvo

I have a Goose Gear Camp Kitchen 2.3 which has a max fridge size of 15w x 25d x 20h. I currently have a Dometic CFX3 35, single zone, it has been in the Jeep and on for a few years now, power is from my off grid 100Ah LiFePO4 power kit. Here are some picks on RevKit. I need an higher capacity...

I love my Partners Steel stove. It's a 22" dual burner, attached to my Goose Gear Camp Kitchen, slides in/out from under the stove side. I ordered a 9' hose that I have velcroed along the inside of the tailgate opening. I have both ends of the hose velcroed to the inside, with enough slack to...

Thanks, I carry a number of antennas in the Jeep. Some small stealth antennas, 1/4 wave, 5/8 wave, etc., for HAM and GMRS. What I've been looking for is an antenna that will survive trips through wooded areas. The folks I travel with are usually pretty close, so guessing 1/4 mile is what I'd...

I’m still searching for the most durable GMRS antenna. Has anyone bought and used one of these? https://midlandusa.com/products/mxat04-6-6db-heavy-duty-bullbar-antenna I wonder how it compares with the Melowave ANM-123G...

Makes sense, drill the hole first, then use a wood screw, or a machine screw. Hoping I don't split the wood or even worse the hole goes through the bottom. LOL

At the risk of being beaten (gently) with a Murder Spork, what's the best way to attach one of these bad boys? Goose Gear provides two holes, but not sure if I should drill through the wood bottom, or just use wood screws? I know, first world problem...

Apple just announced some love given to WatchOS 10 for navigation. #wwdc23

The flexible nozzle came in today. Swapping out the CARB nozzle was pretty easy. The plastic bracket that holds the CARB nozzle in place is mounted using two rivets, where the flexible nozzle bracket came with a couple screws. Once I removed the rivets and the bracket, I installed the new...

I lived in CA for a couple years, before I owned a Jeep. CA and AK next year, probably a 30 day vacation. Not sure if I'll splurge on a trailer, if I do, I'll definitely bring a couple/few fuel cans. For my May/Aug trips, 5 gallons should do it. I wasn't aware gas stations were so far from Death...

Note to self: buy Lotto ticket. :)

Those look great! Guessing since they're plastic they'll bloat (hot/elevation) and concave (cold), which is more of an eyesore than anything else. But if the caps work in those conditions, maybe I should have tried those first. Do they come with a RotoPAX type of mount so I could put onto the...

Interesting viewpoint. I'm not sure I trust plastic gas cans. Whether they're Sceptor or RotoPAX. I decided to move away from plastic since they're difficult to use when they're bloated due to high heat or elevation gain: ...or concave due to cold. The cap on the RotoPAX is a horrible...

Update: apparently there are folks running this configuration. Their advice included using the highest rated bolts, nylon-lock nuts, and washers that fit in the recessed bolt holes of the Wavian mount (Home Depot baby!). They also recommended getting a flexible nozzle because the CARB nozzle...

I have been using RotoPAX fuel containers for a few years, but the caps have become harder and harder to use. I'm tossing in the towel and moving to a 20L Jerry Can. My 2021 JLUR has a Smittybilt heavy duty tire carrier (7743), and I'm running 317/17R70 tires mounted to ICON Rebound Pro wheels...
