I have the 18” saw with led light. It was working fine up until last night. It made a little click that I’ve heard before when the blade was jammed up so I took it apart and it needed a cleaning. After cleaning it up it doesn’t function at all now. Not even the light works. Fully charged...

I used a set of Konig self tensioning chains on my Sprinter van. They saved my ass a few times on city streets but I tore one off while in 6” of snow on a forest road. Too much torque and must have caught a rock or something causing a link to bend open resulting in the chain being useless...

The chains are Pewag Brenta-C. The self tension system you see in the picture is their design, I didn’t add anything. The box they came in says they’ll fit my tires and I ordered them directly from Pewag and they said they fit as well. With that being said, they do look a bit small but they...

Test fitting a set of Pewag Brenta-C chains before we head up to Maine. Tire size 265/75/r16 with the mud flaps removed. Looks like I have an inch of space there between the chain and the fender. I have a 2013 Mercedes’ sprinter 2500 2wd with an Agile off-road suspension kit on the van with...

I are the LP9’s (amber) diffused or do they have hot spots? I have a pair of spotlights on my van and they’re never properly aimed when I need them unless I’m on perfectly level ground.

I’m adding a pair of Baja Design LP9 pro’s and a single onx6 20” bar to my truck and I’m trying to figure out which should be amber and which should be white. We live in Pa so not much need for range so my thoughts were to have the LP9’s amber and then have the onx6 in white to light up the...

Anybody have any information on this company? They’re based out of Sweden and look to offer a decent product. I like the amber driving silhouette but can’t find any info on them other than their promotional stuff. https://www.strandseurope.com/product/siberia-nr-7-night-ranger-driving-light-led/

No.

I’ve tried to use it twice on other people’s vehicles and both times it hasn’t worked. Both times involved batteries that were drained by either an inverter or leaving the lights on. I’ve read online that these jump boxes with their smart chargers need to see a nominal charge in order to work...

Per Wikipedia, looks like the government classifies SUV’s as light trucks and they’re listed as light trucks in industry production statistics as well. Government regulations In the United States, many government regulations simply have categories for "off-highway vehicles" which are...

I made the mistake of posting a short clip of my G “online” and called it a truck in the description. Terrible idea! One of the first comments was “it’s not a truck”. I looked into it a bit and the word “truck” has a very broad definition but basically it comes down to weigh and frame...

24” Vetus marine hatch. Build thread https://sprinter-source.com/forums/index.php?threads/95855/

I need to mount 2 traction boards next to the the exhaust fan up front (1 one each side to keep height down). What’s the best way to do this?

what your describing is exactly what we’ve been doing for 8 years in our 2wd 170ext Sprinter. We pretty much only camp in the winter here in Pa on state forest land. The thing is, with these vans being so large, your typically never going to be on a road or situation where you would need 4x4...

I carry a 5g can that gets me about 80 miles. I used to not carry any extra fuel until I spent some time in Utah and almost ran out of diesel thinking 1/2 a tank was plenty. It almost wasn’t. I’ve never been to north Dakato but I heard it’s worse

I want to install either a 27” or 24” marine deck hatch on the roof of my 2013 Sprinter Van. To do this I would need to remove one roof rib, either 3rd or 4th from the back. I’ve read through a few threads posted here about removing roof ribs and the potential issues. From what I understand the...

I don’t have any shackles on the rear receiver hitch or front recover hitch. The front reviewer hitch is from aluminess and the rear is factory installed class 3. The front hitch is bolted to the frame but only really good for a straight pull, no lateral pulls I would think. I do have a tow...

I’m looking for a winch that I could use on my 8,000lb Sprinter Van. My van is 2wd and the winch would be mounted on the rear factory 2” receiver hitch. The winch would be used on forests roads mainly, in the event I get stuck in a rut or slip off onto the shoulder etc etc. I carry chains...

I have that silencer already. It definitely helps, just not enough.

If I ever did a camper I would use a utility body with a lift.
