I called HRO this morning. Their store is closed but I could order a radio and pick it up at their front door. I picked their brains over the phone a bit but it would be nice to have some hands on and touch things. Guess Maybe I should wait a bit. Interesting answer from Dave in Denver about...

I am looking for suggestions of which HAM radio I should purchase for an upcoming ROF trip. I do not need to purchase a "high end" radio but on the other hand I do not want to purchase one that will be "technologically" be outdated before I get it installed. Are dual mode radios worth the...

Want to buy a used ham radio that you do not need anymore. I need a ham radio for ROF outings. Other than that I do not have a need for a ham radio. My Jeep'n partners all have good CB's and they do not want to change radios. Will reply to all PM's. Vince

This post will eventually be about BUMP STOPS, a very overlooked part of the suspension. I hope you do not mind if I post on your thread. I purchased a new 2003 TJ that would like to grow up to become a LJ. I lived in Seattle and watered it often and it did not grow and inch. But, at about...

Here is what it looks like after a long day of riding the trails in Arizona:

Hey, you rebel. Thanks for the comment. Vince

Sounds like you had a great time. You made some good decisions and saw some wonderful scenery. Best thing is that you left a lot more to see on your next trip. Thanks for sharing. Vince

Two weeks ago. Very lightweight. Tows great. Setup time less than 10 minutes and take down the same. Inexpensive, cost less than RTT but more flexible. Takes the weight load off your vehicle. No ladder to climb but the best thing is the PORTAPOTTIE fits in side the tent and easy to use at 2am...

At 72 years of age we have gone thru every outdoor/rv stage. We are from the Seattle area. We started with a tent. got tired of being wet. One small child = 13ft trailer. 2 children + friends = larger trailer which morfed into a truck/camper. Kids gone = small 5th wheel. Retirement =...

I use a CPAP and have struggled with lack of sleep on camping and hunting trips. I can do without the CPAP for about 2 days before the lack of a good nights sleep starts to take its toll. I finally decided to look into what it takes to power my CPAP. The power supply says it draws 7 amps at 12...

I use an android tablet that is at least 5 years old. it is programmed for Verizon and since we no longer use Verizon (cost cutting $100/mo.) it only works via WIFI. I downloaded the GAIA ap and downloaded maps to the memory chip added to the phone. It works just fine. The android tablet has...

Ace, I had a nice day. We met at 9AM at Bagdad, AZ., a company town at the end of the road. After topping off tanks, airing down and disconnecting the sway bar, we were on the road. The route North from town turns to dirt quickly and climbed steadily to elevations a bit over 6,000 feet. We...

I will not be back for the rest of the journey too! Ace, Both Susan and I woke up Wednesday morning with the "crud".:drool: I will not be able to make it to Parker for the weekend. Guess I'm stuck at home with the super bowl. Go Eagles!!! Thanks for the nice three days last week. We'll do...

More pictures of the Arizona Trip Ace over the top of the ridge while we were on the way to the Indian ruins. Climbing the hill too. Mike and Vivian in the Cherokee needing help in the deep sand. Dinner cooking on the second night. Nothing better than home under a great sunset. Great...

Great Trip! This was a great short trip. Those that did not come missed out. I'm sorry I had to leave after day 3. We covered about 150 miles at "desert crawl" speed and saw a lot of country, helicopters and camera's. We were tracked the whole way. I will leave it to Ace to created a complete...

What are the trucks for... We lived in Calgary Alberta for a while and my wife worked in the office of a company called Canadian Foremost. They made vehicles like these for travel over the tundra for oil exploration, drilling and site restocking. The large terra tires allow the vehicles to...

2"OME Suspension Install I just completed the installation of a HD 2" suspension install on my 2003 Jeep TJ. The fronts were quite easy except that since the new springs are taller than the old ones - be sure to jack the vehicle up high enough so there is more room to lower the front axle...
