    Death Wobble in my Series

    Press new bushings in the frame as well -to remove the old bushings I usually use a 1" hole saw coming in from each side to remove what's left of the rubber and carefully split the outer steel sleeve with a hacksaw then drive it out. Get a 12" length of 5/8 acme threaded rod and some acme nuts...

    FS 1989 Eriba Puck travle triailer

    I dropped the price to $7900 and included a 50mm trailer ball - I went ahead and ordered a new ball so the next owner wouldn't have to look for one. Camping season is starting - but that doesn't mean you have to sleep on the ground!

    There are a couple of these that have been converted to a more "Expedition" type trailer - see these examples.

    FS 1989 Eriba Puck travle triailer

    Eriba Puck Price: $7900 I'm selling my 1989 Eriba Puck travel trailer since I also own a 1988 Eriba Triton and the wife doesn't really think we need two trailers. The Puck is a very late model (1989) and is the newest one I'm aware of in the country. I'm basically the second owner – it...

    Range Rover classic to buy or not

    The headlight switch from a mid-70's MGB is a direct replacement - it costs less than half of the comparable Range Rover switch and is very readily available.

    Older tent has a coating that's peeling off

    My old Eureka Timberline did the same thing - worse part about it was the smell. When the coating starts peeling off like that it will reek to high heaven. People walking by my campsite even remarked on it the one time I used it. It was even worse if you were inside it. Time for a new tent.

    Lets See Your Fold Down Tables!

    What's even funnier is that I used a monopod for the first trial on my table too - after accidentally kicking the monopod and dumping the contents of the table on the ground I came up with the suspension idea. Picture from 2011...

    Lets See Your Fold Down Tables!

    Thanks - a friend of mine gave me the idea of using the ladder - he used a vertical leg to support the table top but I had idea of using a cord to make it self supporting. There is a neat little ratcheting block that you can get at Home Depot that works real well to hold up the back end. It...

    Lets See Your Fold Down Tables!

    My table is stored inside next to the fridge and hangs from the roof rack ladder using a cord tied off to the roof rack. It sets up in under 30 seconds. I could easily make it larger but this is about the right size for making a trail side lunch.

    Where to get big Pelican cases?

    Lavonia is way the heck up at the NE corner of Georgia just east of I-85 two exits before South Carrolina -1- 1/2 hours away from I-285 - I did some surveying work there in the 1970's I use Roswell hardware pretty regularly - live about two miles west of it. I had no idea it was a DIB store...

    Series 1 Disco Engine Swap?

    The 3.9 is a good engine with a mild camshaft upgrade and a Mallory distributor - no powerhouse but it will get you there pretty reliably if you pay close attention to the cooling system. I've known many 3.9 equipped trucks to get past the 200,000 mile mark. On Defender source there is a thread...

    Where to get big Pelican cases?

    B&H Photo in New York has some of the best prices for Pelican cases I've seen. Beam Distributing in Virginia is one of the largest stocking distributors for Pelican Products this side of the Mississippi - nice folks too. Beam Distributing, Inc. Phone: 804-440-6489 Jessica Lienemann...

    To LR4 from JKUR? Need advice...

    Interior color and trim level is a big factor as well - you just have to be patient and wait for the right car to come along. I wanted an HSE for the heated seats and upgraded stereo and my first preference was for "Expedition White". I did not want to be staring at a sea of beige every time I...
