    WTB: 50Qt ARB Fridge SLIDE (just the slide)

    I have a classic ARB 50qt fridge, and am looking for a fridge slide for it. I have found a few on the market that are reasonably priced, but are much too large (or slightly too small) to fit this fridge. The ARB brand fridge slide is 18" wide and 28" long or thereabouts. Does anyone have an...

    looking for a simple set up

    GPS on the iPhone is independent of the cell coverage. The phone has GPS chips built in which always work (assuming clear sky above), regardless of cell coverage. I navigate all over Mojave Desert this way. I am not sure about the iPad. I know the version with cell service has GPS included...

    looking for a simple set up

    Have you considered ditching the iPad and just updating the head unit with a 9” or 10” screen? Then you can either run Gaia directly on those Android based head units (with a gps smart card) or use CarPlay and run the mapping software off your phone. I recently installed a Joying 9” floating...

    08 lr3 tire pressure light on service tire pressure monitor on dash

    You ask hard questions. I always had a full size spare under my LR3, so the fifth sensor was active. I am not sure about a doughnut. Truthfully, I didn't think LR3's came with a doughnut spare. As for the sensor brand, I would call a local LR dealer and ask what brand they stock, then find an...

    08 lr3 tire pressure light on service tire pressure monitor on dash

    It's just the battery in the sensor. They only last 8 to 10 years or so, you got a lot of life out of yours. I don't think the battery is serviceable, I think you need to replace the sensors. It's a good idea to do all 5 while you are there. I suggest buying them direct and then handing them...

    Anyone go from LC to Wrangler?

    The biggest changes are going to be in cost of mods, where the Jeep is quite a bit cheaper, but, because so many options exist, it might add up over time as you follow the creed: Just Empty Every Pocket = JEEP, LOL Second thing you are going to notice is that cargo space is terrible compared...

    What about a 3.0L diesel Grand Cherokee? Plentiful, Cheap, decent mileage, repairable in the driveway, fairly capable with a 3" lift, can run 33" tires. Some even have lockers (QuadraDrive II). https://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2007/07/grand-cherokee-overland-diesel-review/

    Suggestions for next vehicle

    You mentioned reliability. The Disco II offers durability, but not reliability. The Disco III (LR3) is the opposite, it provides reliability, but not durability. Neither get mileage that would make you happy. If you do end up looking at Disco II's, go for a 2004. Land Rover provided the...

    Suggestions for next vehicle

    I just thought, given the price of vehicles these days, that the second line was quite redundant, and it made me laugh. If you had said 60- to 80k, well then, now we've got options......Good luck. I think you need to set up a "choosing by advantages" matrix and prioritize your highly conflicted...

    Wrangler door handles

    Interesting! I like this idea. BTW, here is the link: Personally, it seems like I always have something in the hand that needs to open the door, and it's very ackward to push the button on Jeep doors with your off hand. You have to rotate your wrist 180 degrees and position your elbow just...

    Toasty's '98 Montero Build

    Much Respect! Wiring up a loom like that is no simple thing. My friends at Technica make a good bit of money building those. Keep up the hard work Toasty! I hope the end is in sight!

    Nice! A lot less expensive than others I was looking at ($450 for ARB's slider for example). I had not even heard of DFG before. Thanks for the recommendation.

    Best Fridge Slide for ARB 50 qt ?

    I am finally going to get a slide out fridge slide for my Classic Series II ARB 50qt. There are lots of fridge slides out there. I want a simple, thin, slimline unit that can project out over my rear bumper of my 2014 Jeep JK Unlimited. I do not need tilt or height adjustment. ARB makes a...

    So, what's in your Recovery Bag?

    I have a large ARB recovery bag with a 3", 30k lbs 30 foot strap, multiple 7/8" shackles, several soft shackles, a snatchblock, a tree saver strap, high visibility work gloves (for spotting after the inevitable rock stacking and rigging for a recovery), and a spare hitch pin with cotter pin. I...
