    60 Series Suspension Question

    If you are going to get a new suspension and are relatively a newbie to it, OME is not a bad way to go. I would get the HD set as you sound as if you are going to load up your rig a bit. I got the HD Dakar for ~$1000 Kanuk buks for my rig and they have been just great. Never regretted it at all...

    Testing Pull-Pal Alternative: Smittybilt W.A.S.P. (Winch Anchor Support Platform)

    Thanks Lance, I too am looking for a used ARB or Pull Pal. Withe current exchange rate 1.30 Kanuk buks to 1 Yank, it is quite expensive at over $650 Kanuk buks!

    Testing Pull-Pal Alternative: Smittybilt W.A.S.P. (Winch Anchor Support Platform)

    Just a shovel! And yes it does take a bit of work, but it does work if you do it right. Hover, in the desert where it is a hard pan, I rarely get stuck as I scout my trails when I am solo.

    Stowing gear in your rig and why?

    Looks very spacious to me and what I live in for 2-3 months, downright luxurious! Nice rig!

    Stowing gear in your rig and why?

    Now I sleep inside my 73. With the passenger seat (left) moved forward and reclined forward and an extension (doubles as working platform on the two AO drawers), I have more than enough space to sleep.

    Stowing gear in your rig and why?

    Weighing your rig A great way to know how to pack your gear for even weight distribution is to weigh your rig at one of the many scales around your town. I am sure there are commercial scales around most major centres or a truck stop fueling station like Flying J or Pitts, Loves, etc. Try to...

    Testing Pull-Pal Alternative: Smittybilt W.A.S.P. (Winch Anchor Support Platform)

    Thanks Wil, Corbin and Lance for a frank and concise test. As I travel solo quite a bit and especially to remote areas, I too am looking for a device/gadget to get me out of trouble. Too bad the Pull Pal is so expensive and heavy. I like to have devices that serve more than one purpose...

    Artistic Shots- Well thought out, framed (positioned), artistic shots only please.

    No such thing as a stupid question, Graeme, the only stupid question is the one you never asked cause probably one is too embarrassed to ask, cause you will never know the answer! So ask a way! BTW, Why is that places that are far away from ones back yard end up being so photogenic? or am I the...

    Stowing gear in your rig and why?

    Totally agree Scott, that is one of the primary reasons I sold my rack and RTT. Besides, not only aerodynamics are affected, but fuel economy, stability, security, underground parking, etc.

    For Fellow 70-Series Lovers

    Either I heard wrong or we are talking about two different things. I don't know that one could change a tire, balance it and reinstall that fast! Those guys must be tyre gurus!

    Which power source for CB

    Agreed and if it makes you more comfortable and less stressful, go for it! Over building can't hurt!
