So I am looking to replace the axle on my Conqueror trailer. The main reasons I want to switch axles: 1. Add brakes 2. Get a common size bearings, so I could replace if they ever gave me trouble on the road I stopped by a trailer shop and was told: 1. to get the 6 on 5.5 wheel hub, I had to...

I finally got my 235/85r16 tires. I went with Yoko Geolander ATs to replace my BFG 31x10.5r15. The tires are heavier 75 pounds, vs 65 for the BFGs, the ride seems rougher like the sidewalls are stiffer (but I don't know) I did get a rainy day to play in and the tires never broke traction, and I...

My wife's Honda Prelude is dieing so I am about to look at a 96 RAV4, anyone ever have one, know what to look for? I figure a compression test and then what? Thanks Jay

I need a set of winter tires and looked at a set of 4 Bridgestone Winter Duellers that have 9/32s left in the center. the edges show wear but not cupped... worth $250? or bite the bullet/wait for better? Seems like nearly $300 for tires that I MAY only get two seasons out of is not worth it...

OK really my first cyclocross race in about 15 years, so this was my second. It has rained here for the last few days and we had rain this morning, so the course was sloppy. I was racing a bike I bought and built in the past 10 days. Needless to say I was a little nervous. I finished top 20...

I picked it up cheap and built using almost all parts from my box... need a few things to race it, but it is a blast to ride!

There is a Haro Cyclocross for sale locally (frame, fork, BB, seat post and BB) for $195. I can not find (Google) much info, if any, on line... anyone heard of/ ridden one? TIA

We had three great days of weather, so the family headed to the Adirondacks for some fun. We hiked two fire tower mountains, Bald and Blue Mountains, and rented a canoe and kayak to paddle down 8 miles of the Moose River. We also hit a few touristy things, like riding the Adirondack Scenic...

I was on my way down the NYS Thruway hauling my Conqueror Compact for a family get away in the Adirondacks last weekend when I see a couple passing me staring at the trailer... I don't think anymore of it but when I stop for gas, the girl comes "running" over. As all y'all with one know, you...

This is just a huge thumbs up to Park Tools. I recently striped my chain tool's internal threads, when I went to my LBS to replace it, they said e-mail Park and ask about a warranty. Three days later a brand new tool arrives in the mail! Great service! In a time when many of us have had less...

I finally jumped through enough hoops and got my Conqueror Compact registered (as a 2002) Not enough time to share details, I am making finally adjustments and loading it now for a maiden voyage.

What have you AT and Conqueror owners register your trailers as? Campers? Utility? TIA

I am trying to restore a 1961 Coleman stove from my grandfather.... my brother had taken it and left it for years with some fuel in the tank. It was now a thick varnish. I cleaned it carb cleaner (let overnight), then denatured alcohol with BBs followed by water bath. The water comes out clear...

I may need to buy a used Toyota "something" - need to keep it at ~$7k Can be a car, but if a truck, must be 4x4. I will know for sure in the next week. Needs to be a long week-end drive from Rochester, NY (Western side of state) ie I fly out and drive it back. This would be for my daughter...

the CFO approved a capital expenditure to improve my 2 wheeled off-road transportation, but with-in reason... so I have been shopping the year end/holiday sales and have it down to 2 choices on sale in the $600 range. Specialized Rockhopper 29er, mech disc brakes and lower end components or...

OK I am in the middle of the CB install and went to Radio Shack and bought a $50 SWR Meter... but not the darn cable between the meter and CB (why can't they include that?) I ran power to the CB with RA 58 shield cable directly to the battery (read that tip on the internet). So I spliced...

I need to figure this out: Currently I have a big gauge wire running directly from my battery into a fuse at the battery - through the firewall into the cab to a generic store brand switch - back through the cab and into the bed. I use this for powering my thermal electric (read cheap) fridge -...
