What would you call these nets? Cargo nets? Mesh pockets? We want to put something similar to this into our Dormobile. These are out of a Discovery. I have tried McMaster-Carr already. Any ideas where to get some?

I am not sure which subforum to post this in, but this seems to be the catchall place. As we were driving up US180 in New Mexico a couple of weeks ago, it struck me that if we needed an emergency room, or even some medical care, I would not know which way to go. I know it exists in Silver...

If any of you all are interested, I wrote an article about the Mojave Road for Land Rover Enthusiast, which they put in their October issue coming out now. I am not sure where to get it in the US anymore - Barnes & Noble used to carry it, but I have not seen it in a while.

I keep seeing a white Tacoma with a FWC near my house. This morning on the way to work, it pulled out onto La Canada behind us about a 1/4 mile north of River. Is that any of you? If so, I would like to check out your FWC. James

I have never seen anything like it.

Hi All, One of our fleet vehicles is a 2001 F350, crew cab, with a regular long bed. It is used primarily to drive up and down a mountain, 7000 ft elevation gain in 27 miles. It warps rotors way easier than any of our other vehicles, which include Suburbans, an F250 regular cab, Dodge...

We had a bearing failure yesterday, where the two bearings disintegrated, except for the inner race of the inner bearing. That was stuck on the shaft. I would like any advice on how to get that off quickly. The way I eventually got if off was by cutting it in two places with a Dremel, then...

I am a mechanical engineer getting into trouble with electrical stuff... The shower pump I made from a headlight washer pump is too fast and draws a lot of power. The motor in it has a resistance of 2 Ohms. I put a 10 Ohm resistor in series with it, and the pump doesn't turn. I put a 5 Ohm...

Consists of the 1A Raingutter Towers, the Crossbars, the Basketcase, and two older 2K G/T bike racks (similar to the current Raptor) which all together cost ~$430 new. I would like to get $200 for it. I am willing to sell pieces of it, too. It will work on any vehicle with rain gutters...

We have a Zodi Hot Tap Series #6189 shower, and the pump has failed us. After numerous repairs, I decided to scrap the pump. I took the high pressure headlight washer pump from the Range Rover I am parting out, wired it to a cigarette lighter plug, epoxied the connections, and have used that...

I was up at my mother-in-law's house this weekend, and noticed the copy of the Vehicle Dependent Expedition Guide my wife gave to her brother years ago was on the shelf. It looks like he never looked at it. He is most definitely not interested in it now, he is such a city boy. So, I told him...

I don't know why most vehicles have a chime that beeps when you open the door with the key in the ignition, but they don't beep over something important like low oil pressure or overheating. Anyway, is there a way I can disable this feature on our 2006 Silverado? When we were camping this...

I am having trouble finding a small propane cylinder for my Dormobile. The originals are British, and all the local propane companies tell me to take them to Mexico to fill them. The originals hold 3.9 kg (8.5 lbs) of propane, are 9.75" diameter, and have an overall height of 13.5 inches. You...

We have a 2006 Silverado that we finally decided to take the front spoiler off. Helps a ton with the approach angle, and we still get 16 mpg on the freeway pulling our tent trailer. I don't want to put it back on. The only trouble is, it looks pretty stupid that way. Is there a short trim...

My 109 is leaning to the left, which is a problem not only aesthetically, but because the left front bump stop gets hit quite frequently. The left front is about 3/4" lower at the bumpstop, and the left rear is 1.125" lower. I borrowed some load cells, and used them to measure the static load...

My name is James Howard, I live in Tucson, and I am addicted to Land Rovers. Our current Rover is a 1968 Dormobile, which you can see many pictures of on TeriAnn's website. The most recent are here: http://expeditionlandrover.info/Dormobile/pictures10.html Ours is the one with the red cans...
