    The tires are standard EXPO issued 255/85/16 BFG KM2's and the bumper is an ARB with a warn 8,000lb winch. I've also mounted some amber IPF lights that point low and wide for our relentless snow and fog encounters. Communication is currently a cobre 75 CB, and entertainment is handled by a...

    How to store Scepter Funnel?

    I use the vac seal food bags. When I need to open it I cut one end, then roll it up and put a clip on it. I left the bag a little long so I can reuse it plenty of times. A more durable option would be a PVC tube capped on each end.

    Racking my brain

    Good idea, if I could get the heavy thing to be solid and use compressed air to lift it.... Ya, that was where I was headed when I thought to post this. It needs to to hoops tied together with gussets to withstand rally forces:ylsmoke:I'll be doing that too. That looks like a nice setup for...

    Racking my brain

    I believe I've made a mistake by mounting my RTT tent too high. It is a T-TOP design having the add a room option. I wanted maximum headroom when deployed, and the extra cargo room over the bed, so I built a rack to place it higher. This puts the tent up in the airfoil and it scrubbed about 1...

    Why do folks say, "Jeeps aren't expedition vehicles?"

    I've always thought it half worthless to mount a heavy recoiling machine gun to a bunch of springs, but I didn't consider driving down a smooth runway shooting at planes!! I guess you could get close enough to hit a plane:victory:

    Propane 20lb or 5lb, or.. what?

    I didn't realize you had the trailer, I would say get the 10lb composite so you can see the fuel level. What is it about $90 shipped? The next choice would be two 5lb steel tanks. You would easily know the half way mark with double tanks, but its more hassle and nets less total fuel, for...

    Propane 20lb or 5lb, or.. what?

    I would think the 5lb tank would work. I don't have a propane heated shower though, so I'm not sure. If its a hog I would get the 10lb tank. Then you can run a heater if you need to also.
