Been there, my son and I drove from TX to Moab, (towing a small utility trailer), enjoyed some great off-roading for 4 days, during which a strange clicking noise was noticed but could not be found. Drove all the way back to TX, and the next day the last of the ring gear bolts in the rear diff...

I didn't open everyone's links to pics (yet), but I was a bit surprised to not see a few more OZTENT tents, such as RV-3, RV-4. Besides being on the wrong continent, is this just not a popular item with the group?

For lifting and lowering, does a 12 volt linear actuator fit into the picture somehow? I've seen them used in some small dump trailers used for yard work, and such. With the correct stroke, and geometry so the force vectors push hardest when they need to, it might be 'da bomb'. And I know...

Jeff, I am a loyal follower, but had an idea for consideration and didn't want to go back thru all the pages to see if it had been considered. If it has, I know it will be recorded in your brain files. :) The idea is having the top split (either front to back or side to side) and hinged along...

Powder coating?

Air Bag it. You'll never regret it. And you'll never hear your trailer bouncing around behind you - adjust the pressure to the load and it's smooooooooooth

wow

I did the front first................BUT............. should have done the rear axle first. Wouldn't have held up the rest of the crew on the trail waiting for the strap. Not much of an issue on rough ground that is fairly level or slightly sloped, and like someone said - downhill is no issue...

Good idea about talking to Randy / Kim - I will do that. (slap forehead). As to the 'why' in your post, it's just personal preference, I like having the tub floor, and the ability to pitch the room separate from the tent, and the ability to add to my open covered space, and the price.

Thanks Ron, no it's not the peaked side panels (tho those are nice). Oztent makes what they call a 'deluxe screen room', that has a floor, doors in all 4 screen walls, flaps that can be setup as awnings all around or hung down to cover the sides...

Just picked up a screen room to compliment my RV-3 Oztent, however all my gear is in SD, and I'm not. Does anyone have any experience with the screen room by OZtent? any pics (other than what's on the Oztent site)? thanks dave

Simplicity = beauty. IMHO Well done

'The Source' (ie - Master Sheppard - VDEG) is fairly complimentary on the Coleman Peak 1-Apex 11. That is if you've the space and want something that simmers down nicely. It's a multi-fuel. Used on Ebay sometimes go for more than what new used to cost.

I met a guy over the weekend that was/is a mechanical engineer, wanted to do something else, a little more artistic. I now makes boots, $1200 base price, I'm talking nice boots. He had a passion, went for it, and is on his way. I say 'go for it'. mikesboots.com

My son and I drove the 97 TJ from Dallas to Moab, wheeled all week, when a strange intermittent clicking starting around the next to last day. Couldn't find it, and it wasn't constant. Drove all the way back to Dallas, and a few days later was picking up my mother-in-law at the airport when...
