    X-Jack use question

    My shiny new X-Jack showed up from Sierra Expeditions yesterday and with this WONDERFUL thing called Day light Savings Time (you can't see it, but there is a glob of sarcasim dripping off that statement) I had time to play with it.

    Muddy boots and a rooftop tent

    This may seem like a silly question, but after camping in much rain this weekend and with a rooftop tent soon to be up and working, I'm wondering what you all do when you have ugly muddy boots and sleep on the roof? I'm loath to leave them down below as things may decide to lie in them over...

    Crazy heating idea

    I got to thinking about heat in the rear of the truck as I enjoy the total warmth my Suburban provides. I looked at the kit for the 110 and it's $2400:oops: I wouldn't mind cooling, but just thinking super short term I was trying to figure out how I can make life for the dogs in the back of...

    Defender 110 width

    My truck is currently in the shop and I'm having trouble getting an accurate measurement. What I'm looking for is the width between the roof gutters. Not the absolute width (which I think include the wheel flares), but just how wide a rack would be if mounted directly to the roof gutters...

    Trash storage

    Keeping up with my line of storage thread... :) .... I've struggled from time to time with a good system for storing trash on the trail. Usually the plastic bag works fine but I'm one of those guys who in the past has been known to drink a good number of bottles of liquid type refreshments. So...

    Water Storage

    I can't seem to find just what I'm looking for in search. I'm looking at designing out the back of my 110 from scratch, which is a nice prospect. Onboard water is a concern. I want to just lay something across the wheel wells (using the space underneath for recovery gear/tools/spares and heavy...

    And I probably should have introduced myself first

    With the cart already ahead of the horse, I'll try to start over. Hi, my name is Peter Carey. I own a NAS D110 which is pretty stock, except for the current engine swap to a International 2.8 TGV diesel. And sliders, it has sliders too. Anyway, I've always been interested in long distance...

    Diesel return line

    Howdy! I'm just now getting to put in 2.8TGV diesel in my 110 (special thanks to Dave Marchand for his pictures of his install, which helped answer a lot of questions when we got stuck!) I'm considering putting in two auxiliary fuel tanks. Each would be between the frame and the body in...
