Thinking I would like to get one... in diesel. Any advise on years, issues, etc. appreciated. M

A couple suggestions... A very thin mattress does not provide enough insulation under the occupants in cool/cold weather. I think 1" to 1-1/2" would be absolute minimum. Also if the mattress is 'bonded' to the flooring, it will be problematic when wet, dirty, or worn. I would reconsider this...

Ford - I have zero problems with legitimate requests, criticism or complaints, and we do our best to deal with them as they come. We have gone to some extraordinary lengths to satisfy customer requirements, even providing items at no charge or driving hundreds of miles to make a delivery to a...

This is a case of either manufacturing or intentionally passing along misinformation. We do buy some items from Rack n' Road - mostly rack systems for customers who would like to buy everything from one source. They have our credit card on file and we PAY BEFORE SHIPPING. We never have a due...

Gentlemen, let me respond directly to your issues... Mike - our container arrived last week, and we have been shipping backlogged items. We now have a supply of travel covers for the OverCamp medium. We sell rather few of this model/size so we have to go to the well for them when we do not have...

I have three Tibor salt water reels - a Billy Pate single action (8 Weight), a Riptide (10 Weight), and a Gulfstream (12 Weight). I have caught a lot of big fish on them. These are extremely good reels, smooth drags, well balanced, and very reliable. I do not think that you really need a...

That is a killer deal. retail is $2699. If it is not sold, I will buy it. M

Gary at Mudrak's in Sonoma has them in stock. Get one by UPS ASAP...

I have been driving Cruisers since 1973. There is only one time that one of my Cruisers failed to preceed -- the turd who serviced my FJ40 failed to refill the transfer case with oil, and it burned up (after quite a few miles). Other than that, a perfect record, if you don't count the flat tire...

I understand the sentiment and reasoning regarding a temporary disablement of a bear with pepper spray VS killing the animal. My point is simple, however, If the pepper spray does not deter the bear you WILL be lunch. I have a close friend that survived a bear attack on the Alaska Peninsula...

A bear attack is not always about food. Some certainly are, but there are apparently other triggers. With grizzlies, it seems that it's often a hair trigger. My cousin is a geologist and wilderness backpacker. When he left to work on the North Slope of Alaska, he asked my advice on armament for...

Your selection depends almost entirely on the location, elevation and type of streams/rivers you fish. Here in the west I like to have attractor dries for fast water - Humpies, elk hair caddis, Adams, and Wulffs - a couple of stoneflies - golden and little yellow stoneflies (dry and nymphs)...

Maggiolina land Chris' LC My 80

Pre-'96 cruisers are PARTIALLY OBDII compliant - they did not implement the total compliant system unitl the '96 model year - which began sometime in '95 I expect. Head gaskets - the urban legend says that when you buy an FZJ80 it comes with a head gasket failure built-in. Ain't so. There HAVE...

I have a twin tank with parallel aux feed to a electrically switched valve in the engine compartment. This uses a Mallory 60FI (high pressure) electrical fuel pump and 30 amp relay. Mallroy install specs call for a 15 amp fuse. I expect that the draw is around 10 amps. This pump has been...

I know at least one person who carries his National Luna fridge on the open flat bed of his pick-up truck. In thousands of miles, he has had no problems. Mounted on the tongue (front) of the trailer may be more problematic. You might consider a box with filtered vents and a cabinet (or...

Perhaps there is a little misunderstanding here... the Air Top sides are under some significant pressure, and are taut when open. The crank-up Maggiolina allows the user to manually add tension, a feature that the gas ram activated Air Top does not provide. I have used all our tent models under...

I dined on black corn mold in Mexico City several times - they call it huitlacoche.

There is also 4X4 Labs. They do quality work.
