    Base Camp Trailers

    Looks like a great platform - and they encourage customization, too. Nice.

    New to me 2013 Xeterra!

    Ditch the side steps and get rock sliders, IMHO - the rest is great. Great truck!

    M101A2 Question

    I was going to do something similar with my M100 trailer and realized that it was a lot of expense and hassle for little more than cosmetic benefit. I could have swapped axles or used wheel adapters... I can drag my trailer with a flat if need be (it's light enough), I have fix-a-flat and a...

    Dark Interior, possible to add switch to control dome lights when doors closed?

    I've put these in several rigs - they come with a rest to hold it in place and then you can swing it on the stalk to get the right angle to read, etc. Easy to hook up, good design, durable, too. http://www.amazon.com/HELLA-004532161-Flexible-Reading-Housing/dp/B0002MA056

    Altimeter?

    GPS + Phone makes it not terribly important... like an inclinometer. Would be fun if they had them like the old troopers or monteros, but not really a missed item.

    trailer tongue help

    you should be fine - one option could be to make it so you could use a longer or shorter tongue (for when you don't want to haul kayaks) that can be swapped with bolts or lynch pins or something

    AT Stage 1 and Combo Slide With In-Floor Subwoofer?

    Terrible design by Jeep, BTW - I avoided the stereo upgrade for that reason specifically. It may be able to sit on top, but the grille will likely take a lot of the weight directly. You could build a spacer with relief cut out for the grille - basically a plate to distribute the weight and not...

    The FINAL Rack!: Looking for a rugged, durable & versatile roof rack/basket?

    Aluminum? Titanium? Hot-dipped galvanized parts? They still might rust from the inside-out if using regular steel... rust never sleeps.

    Most popular stove's used in Overlanding

    I have a coleman propane (not dual fuel) and Camp Chef Everest. If I had to make a recommendation, though, I would suggest a partner stove.

    Should I mount the tent on the front or the back of the rack?

    Is it a trick of the light and lens or is your rack sagging with the tent on there? FWIW - on the back, it may be easier on the suspension and less impact on handling characteristics

    Xterra Torque Converter Shudder

    It really does sound like a SMOD symptom - even though you replaced your radiator. As stated, flush the trans and radiator, see if that helps. I got hit by the SMOD on my 2006 X and replaced the radiator, totally rebuilt the trans, and they bypassed the radiator with an external trans cooler...

    Lord Fusor 108B

    4x6 truck cap - stepside shortbed I looked at a few different options and decided on plywood with bedliner to protect it - will have gas struts to help lift it as there will be a yakima megawarrior cargo basket on top.

    "Euro Spec" Hutchinson Jeep JK Wheels Group Buy?

    No beadlock, but also appears to be no safety seat either, correct? It's just a split rim?

    Twist locks are they a good idea

    If it can hold a stack of shipping containers to the deck in rough seas it should be fine for your use. :-)

    Good write up. I've never seen those rims before - are they same offset as OEM JK rims?
