Lionel? For a moment I was looking for a train set.:):):)

He is doing something constuctive isn't he. I agree with the majority, at least he's getting out.

Weight distribution is a problem isn't it. What I'm thinking is; What's his max payload, has he exceeded his tire's load rating. If he blows a tire, he's in big trouble.

Okay, I've seen a bunch of vehicles with snorkels. With today's modern trucks, just how much can you dunk the engine compartment and not end up with electrical problems. And how many have forded a stream deep enough to actually need a snorkel. I now their cool looking, but useful?

I have a '99 Isuzu Rodeo with the 3.2 V6 and after 160k the engine is fine. No smoke, passes smog, no leaks of any kind. My only issue today is a possible bad starter. I'll take care of that this weekend.

I'm sure you already know to keep it as light as possible, especially since your tow vehicle will be a convertable. Lots of chassis flex with unibody cars, but even more with convertables. I towed a trailer much like you described with a car top carrier to keep things dry. My tow vehicle was a...

I don't have one of those but I'd take a pass. It doesn't look very robust. Look for a rack that is not held together with screws but welded instead.

An older truck sans computer. For a gasser points and condenser ignition and carborated. For diesel, mechanical fuel injection, no computer, multifuel would be best. (perhaps a bobbed deuce?)

Huh?

I'm new to all this, but do the lights and winch block much airflow to the radiator?

That's good to know.

Yes, car bra. I think they're called wading blankets. See "LUKEY's" version of a wading blanket, may work for you next time.

Find a compatible plastic glue, a sheet of platic similar to the item you want to repair that will cover the cracked area a couple of inches if possible. Glue the sheet to the backside/underside of the item you want to repair. This should give strenth to the area around the crack. Epoxy should...

well 140000 miles since 08 I think qualifies for unusual. must be hard miles and heavy breaking.

Nerves of steel cutting into a new vehicle...

So because someone disagrees you call it hate?

This is a really nice build, I wonder though will you be posting a list of parts and costs for those of us who may want to undertake such a build? Also perhaps a comparison between the ARB suspension equipped Limited and the Trail Edition.

What a waste of time and money. Imagin the Expedition vehicle they could (should) have made.

I would love a folding solar panel, but the cost is crazy high. I'm looking for a panel slightly smaller than the dimensions of my roof basket, that way I can mount brackets underneath and store the panel there when traveling. Something between 65 and 80 watts should satisfy my power needs.
