I've put literally several hundred thousand miles on my rear wheel drive vans. Had a '98 Chevy 3500 Express EB I drove the snot out of all over America, and now have had an '08 GMC 2500/3500 Savana EB for several years. I've never worried about winter, from up around the northern reaches of the...
Great thread from 2013 that helped shed some light on this, with some input from Mark at Schutt, though I'm very interested in hearing from others as to their choice of rated axle and how it's worked out under various trailers...
Morning, folks.
I've decided not to build up my M-416 or Bantam T3-C trailers for camping or daily use, for a variety of reasons I'll put in another thread, perhaps. They're both up for sale if anyone is interested.
I'm a short breath away from ordering an XVenture XV-2 trailer. Definitely...
How do you like the CTEK units? Don't hear a lot about them on here that I've seen, but they seem solid and like they solve a lot of other installation probs. . .
Just an update for those seeking Scepter/LCI military water cans.
I just rec'd my order of three MWC from LCI in MS. All brand new and in perfect condition. Appeared they may have been on backorder when I placed my order, though took ten days from time of order to being here in house.
For...
Wicked good info, much appreciated.
I've been keeping my own coded pwd list, locally, for years with different pwds for every site, with great success. But it's become cumbersome, so I'll give Enpass a try.
Wicked nice retelling of your time in Big Bend, my favorite place on the planet. I thoroughly enjoyed your story and images, bits of trivia and facts, and a few roads new to me. The drone footage helped cap it all off.
I'm thinking seriously about purchasing land down that way, maybe in nearby...
Hey there, a hearty welcome to a fellow Duramax owner!
I had a '98 6.5 Duramax in a Chev Express 3500 and drove the hell out of it all over America, in and out of places I shouldn't have really taken a rear wheel drive. Engine was still going super strong at over 550,000 miles when I retired...
yonah - sent a pm about an hour ago about your ARB chairs...willing to pay now via Paypal or similar and pick 'em up in person when out that way next month.
Thanks.
Just ordered three MWCs in Desert Tan from LCI at 24.79 ea, which includes shipping. Received a confirmation within minutes with an order number and purchase total. Though no shipping date on the confirmation, and though the shopping cart page said "Arrive 07/15" (tomorrow), my account 'Orders'...
6 week old thread, but the best all-around everyday flashlight that I use, that is *always* clipped in my pocket whether wearing jeans or hiking shorts or nighttime jersey shorts, is a Streamlight Microstream (http://amzn.to/2ukMcal) that uses just one AAA cell.
I have a ton of both AA and AAA...
Yep, from everything I can gather from researching the best made camping trailers out there right now, aluminum trailer frames are a great choice. That said, for DYI, might not be. Both Patriot (in Australia) and Schutt (in Wisconsin) use aluminum but have huge processing plants dedicated to...
I agree, fire_strom, the Bundutec awnings look to be a great overall option--for both cost and size--and is the way I'm leaning for my GMC long-wheelbase van. Like you, I think the BunduEl fits a van best (http://bundutecusa.com/awnings/bunduel/).
The Bundutec awnings are also free-standing...
Fritzoc, I like this a lot, and will use it as a starting point for doing a top on my Bantam T3-C. I'll be interested to see what you use for a perimeter seal and how it turns out, too.
Wondering what entered the decision to have it open driver's side instead of passenger side? I've pondered...
Window Deflectors from Weathertech
I've used these, from Weathertech (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002MBQOU/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1), on my GMC vans for over six years and would miss them dearly if I didn't have them. Some window edge shields use sticky tape to adhere...
M100 links, and my new M416
Nice, JRJKU, looks to be well taken care of and pretty well restored. These trailers are a lot of fun to research and learn about and there's a ton of info online about them. If you haven't run across these two pages on the M100, I found them to have some of the...
