    No 8 oz butane fuel canisters in California?

    I was recommended by a few sources that these butane/propane GAS ONE stoves are great. This one can use either the 8 oz. butane and 16 oz. Propane. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HQRD8EO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The 16 oz propane cans are easy to come by... but the 8...

    Flip-Pac Parts Suppliers List? Windows, Torsion Bars, etc.

    I would be in for a set of hinges... maybe even two pair. Is anyone (Member: ACKA above?) going to move forward with this? I just bought a FliPac with a broken hinge and would buy at least one set right now. I have not seen them removed - is the threaded part in the hinge itself? I'm asking...

    Spare tire size, largest size in stock location

    I just measured mine out and it looks like mine (extended version) will fit an oversize wheel... the ones on the rig are about 32" diameter and the current spare is only 29-1/2" in diameter.

    Flip-Pac Parts Suppliers List? Windows, Torsion Bars, etc.

    My dream would be a re-design of the entire FlipPac concept. Better tent structure, hardware, updated torsion bar.... and STRAIGHT fiberglass and modern windopws.... honestly the quality of the fiberglass finish is like a "backyard mechanic" job. Absolutely awesome design/concept but not that...

    FlipPac installed on a SportsMobile? (Ford E350 van)

    Hey All, Mostly a lurker here... Have a Titan with a FlipPac on it... all the quality issues aside on the FlipPac I am an absolute convert to this design.... SO much room. Recently I picked up a Quigly 4x4 van with a modest "SportsMobile" interior, but no pop-top... and I think I'm glad. I...

    5.4L EFI FFV V8 worth converting to 4x4 "sportsmobile" adventure vehicle?

    Thank you for the replies - Kinda what I surmised, but good to have some first hand knowledge... The 5.4 F350's are so plentiful it will be so much easier finding one... although brianJwilson, I will indeed keep my eye out for a v10

    5.4L EFI FFV V8 worth converting to 4x4 "sportsmobile" adventure vehicle?

    This is a cross post - hope you do't mind I was not getting any responses on the "Sportsmobile" section... I've been looking and lurking for a while now. I am swayed in the direction of converting an E-350. The low mileage diesels seem so hard to find I'm wondering if the 5.4L EFI FFV V8 model...
