Hmmm... I just decided to re-up my HAM license after being almost 4 years expired, and at least 8 years without a radio in my vehicle. Back in the college days, I had old rigs, and mounting something was mostly an exercise in trying to find enough rust-free metal to hold a few screws. Now, in...

Does anyone else wish their Jeep had an altimeter? It seems like they must read the air pressure somewhere for engine management. How hard could it be to calculate altitude? Just pondering...

Hmm... This seems odd to me. I've gotten into the habit of using the TPMS to see all of the individual pressures in my 2014 JKUR when airing up or down. I've rotated tires many times and never had the system fail to recognize a tire. this morning in Death Valley I aired down quite a bit for...

Hi, So I've had my eye on the OR-FAB 83228 bumper for my JK for about a year. The stars seem to be aligning for a purchase, and when I cruised their website tonight, I see that there is a new bumper 83260, that they call HDX. The old one looks like it might not still be produced. Does anyone...

Selling one Tepui Ayer (blue) purchased about 1 year ago and slept in maybe 3-4 nights. It spent about 6 months riding on top of the jeep, then got stored. Originally, we bought two of these and mounted on a Gobi rack on my JKU. We find ourselves using the rear far more than the front, and I...

So, I've had my Tepui Tents for about a year now, and, unfortunately, have nowhere near enough nights in them. With that being said, Something was pointed out to me this summer that has kept a question in my mind. When I set up the tent, the ladder does not work out nicely to be locked in on...

So I've been curious to hear if any of you with multi axis couplers (of any flavor) have suffered trailer roll overs? I used to work in mining around 50 Ton articulated dump trucks, and they seemed to flip the bed over any time you looked cross-eyed at them. The coupler is very similar in...

So, I love white gas stoves, with one small exception. I have a medical issue that makes them hard to pump up, especially when my hands are cold. I had an idea recently, the sort of awesome idea that is either going to end in total success or a huge ball of white gas fire... Maybe both? Has...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has ditched sleeping bags in favor of blankets (maybe wool) in their RTT. My first night in the tent got down to 20 degrees or less, and I felt insulated from the floor just fine by the foam mattress. I find myself using the sleeping bag less and less, and it...

So here is the grand question... I've been kicking around the idea of a vacuum sealer for quite some time. Obviously the choice of make and model matters, as quality an cost will depend on that, but the more important issue is whether it will be used or join the other random kitchen gadgetry...

So, the arrival of my new tubing bender has me on a mission to fab some cargo area storage upgrades for my JKUR. I started out thinking fridge slide with storage above and beside, but I've recently been wondering if a full sliding cargo area tray would be better. I'll start with Pros and...

Hey all, I have a question about overall rig height and balance / highway manners. I have a JKUR on the stock tires. It is not getting lifted. Currently, my Tepui is mounted on the factory rails to the upper level of my Gobi rack. it works nicely, but deploying it requires a bit of...

Hi, I've got a 2014 JKUR that is well on it's way to consuming most of my mid-life crisis $$. Next on the list is a fridge. I've never owned one, but we live in the heat, and I can definitely see the appeal. I have a family of 4, no pets along, and plan to do trips of up to 5 days, maybe the...
