    Headlamps anyone?

    Well, about a year and a half later, and I can say the light isn't holding up. It frequently loses contact and the light goes out. I have to ********** it with my hand or push on the bezel and it comes back on. Bummer! I picked up a new Petzl Tikka plus just before the arctic trip for ten bucks and...

    Absolutely, for the price, they should be. I'm sure Erik would agree with that assertion.

    Traditional Baja Vehicle: Sportsmobile

    Erik has definitely had some issues that needed to be resolved and he has made some vast improvements to the original. He gave me a tour of the van last night at camp (need to finish the tour today) and he has done some really cool stuff to it, and made a lot of improvements. I would consider it...

    In that case, a 31x10.5xR15 would add some ground clearance and should be fine with the gearing that comes with the auto. For more of a compromise between added height and fuel economy a 30x9.5xR15 would work well. You might also be able to shed some weight by getting an alloy wheel but make...

    Traditional Baja Vehicle: Sportsmobile

    Scott, Stephanie, Sharon and I just had dinner last night with Erik and Amy of Badgertrek fame. Very cool people! Their version of the SM is very striking when you see it in person. What an absolutely killer looking machine. :costumed-smiley-007 There is definitely a benefit to the size and...

    AZ Trail Run, Last Minute (4/14): Smiley Rock

    We had a great time! It was good to meet lots of new friends. Lance, very sorry to hear about the hardware failures. I agree that 4wheelers will likely take care of the problem asap. I remember watching that suspension work (from the drivers side) as Nathan was driving through that last...
