    Grand Canyon backpack ideas

    Flounder what recent challenges of the Havasupai are you referring to? Is it the flash floods from last year or is it something else?

    navigating off the grid: iPhone apps

    On the contrary, the BajaRack D1 and D2 racks are not one and the same. The D2 is wider and longer. I have pictures of their D1 rack that was used as a prototype for making the D2 rack. If I have time, I'll post some photos, you can tell they are two different racks. As for the front bar...

    Check BajaRack. Ditto on doing a search on "Rover Racks" and also NWP to get an idea of their history. However, some have said they've recently changed their ways and are better. As for getting a used SD rack, I've seen a few that developed cracks. The forum below shows 2 SD racks that...

    New Land Rover Discovery I and II racks from BajaRack

    Photos of Discovery II roof rack Attached are some pictures of BajaRack's low-profile D2 rack installed on my red Disco2. The fit and finish was excellent, the mounting brackets lined up perfectly in the gutter channel and backed with a thin layer of foam to prevent scratches. The rack is...

    Is Cleg Horn Trail open?

    It should be, I was there 3 weekends ago when the Wrightwood fire was going on and the trail was open. I did the trail on a Sunday, saw lots of people on Cleghorn. The fire was far away from Cleghorn so there was no reason to close it. I went all the way to Silverwood Lake.

    Tdi Dormobile for sale

    Does your Dormobile Kit include a Dormobile commode? I noticed a gray bucket w/black lid in your photos and wonder if instead that's your toilet.

    RAM MOUNT Suction Mount

    I have a RAM suction cup mount that I use with my Magellan Triton. It works but it's nothing special. It you keep your windshield clean and mount it on a flat surface, it works great just like any other suction cup. It's not like RAM has some super sticky rubber that no one else has. I've...

    How is the DeLorme PN-40?

    I think the DeLorme PN series is a good deal for the $$ because you get that nation-wide topo plus option for aerial data. If you don't need an electronic compass or barometric altimeter, then the PN-30 could save you some $$. I got a Magellan Triton 500 and the Nat'l Geo Topo maps but I'm...

    Michaels's Discovery

    Wow that's a deal on that Columbia Rover gas tank skid plate! I installed one on my trail D2. The fit and finish is spot-on, the holes all lined up perfectly and even better, it raised the gas tank by about 1/2". I also got a Columbia Rover SS rear door panel, I haven't installed it but I...

    Just curious Roadkill, what caused the rollover? Looked pretty bad but good to see you're doing okay.

    Cheap Fridge <$400 shipped

    Are you measuring the voltage under a load? It could be when the fridge kicks on, the voltage drops below 11.8V. Are you sure your batter has enough current? Perhaps you could determine if it's the AC or DC circuit in the fridge using the "process-of-elimination" and stick a power inverter...

    More Military Blood Bank freezer fridges

    FedE Ground cheaper than UPS I bought one and shipped it via FedEx Ground from VA to SoCal for around $100. It took about 4 days to get delivered. Originally I got an online quote of $125 if FedEx picked it up and delivered to my house. UPS on the other hand quoted $223. However, the seller...

    D2 CDL install video

    Nice video. One question, on the backing plate, did you rivet it back in place when finished or did you use screws?

    Canadian Disco 2 Build

    Please do post the MAF info when you have the time. I remember reading about the VW parts on various websites such as Dweb but it looked a bit kludged from what I recall so I bought an aftermarket Bosch MAF and it worked. But I might have to replace the MAF on my other D2 since I'm getting...
