    Fear of the highlift?

    Not at all true. Where I live it is so rocky. Even with an auger attached to a tractor we had issues setting corner post for my fencing. Setting T posts deep enough was a problem. Often in mud or sand the hole will fill in too fast to allow you to dig an anchor point. Digging in an anchor...

    Battery operated impact driver vs. pneumatic

    I can get 8 lugs off my one ton with my battery operated impact without stopping even with my home 15 gallon home compressor I have to wait. Unless you have a very good air source a good battery operated impact and a couple batteries will keep up. If you have a good air source (which is...

    Suggest a single burner propane stove?

    I have had one of these for many many years and it always worked. If you want cheap and durable they are great, but if you are cooking anything larger than a coffee pot I wouldn't recommend one.

    01 wrangler roof rack antenna install

    Whatever you mount your antenna to becomes part of the antenna. Racks, doors, fender etc that attach to your body will have paint or powered coating in-between them and the body making your antenna ground (Radio Frequency ground) not as good as it could be. The best option is high and in the...

    12 Volt On-Board Air Compressors What's Out There?

    My first MV-50 was going on about 6 years and I shorted it out. My second one is going on 4 years now. Mine is packed in tight, not much room too cool. I run 34 and 35 inch tires and go from about 10 to 25 lbs when I air up. I often take off the filter so it runs faster. Not the fastest but...

    It is a good tool if you know how to use it.

    Roof Rack Help?

    I have a hitch rack. I even made a higher hitch point to mount it. Looks cool, hold my gear but it SUCKS and I am done with it. People including myself always run into it, it sucks, don't do it, they hurt.

    Battery operated impact driver vs. pneumatic

    If you have an adequate air supply. I bet very few people offroading or overlanding have an adequate on board air to run a decent size impact wrench.

    Battery operated impact driver vs. pneumatic

    I had to take of the axle nut on a 3/4 Ford and my Dewalt got it done with no problem. IR is a better tool but there are more and more lessor expensive options.

    Living with a Powertank

    I ran a CO2 tank for years. I lived in the Mohave for a few years with temps reaching 125+ and never an issue. The weak spot will be if you have a gauge. There is no need for a gauge unless your are mixing gasses. Any regulator/valve you can get for it will be fixed at a pressure that will...

    Proposed 1k fine for vehicles over 20 years old in Oregon

    I wonder how much better it is for the environment to trash a car that could be fixed, waste all the resources to build the new one and transport it to a dealership versus just keep in your old car going?

    Proposed 1k fine for vehicles over 20 years old in Oregon

    I pay less just paid $86 to register my 1979 Chevy one ton for two years and less than $140 a year to insure it. I have an 86 Toyota 4X4 pick up that the registration is about the same and the insurance about $15 more a year. I have an 01 Wrangler that in a few years would be subject to this...

    Proposed 1k fine for vehicles over 20 years old in Oregon

    This is a tax that will really hurt the lower income. I can't believe it would eve be considered but I guess it is a lefty thing and as a righty I just don't understand.

    Battery operated impact driver vs. pneumatic

    If it works for you that's fine. At this point it does seem that unless you have already invested in and have an "adequate" air system I just think for the space taken up in the vehicle and dollars spent you are better with battery at this point. I would still want some sort of on board air...

    E rated tires on an Unlimited?

    Buy the tire based on your needs and its design. An E rated tired is designed to carry heavy loads and may ride harsh and not perform well. I would look for a C rated or maybe a D rated tire for your vehicle and then by a tire designed to do what you want it to do such as a mud tire, all...

    Power inverter

    I did almost the exact same thing but with a 400 watt, except I pulled the carpet out of the way. I installed mine many years ago and it still works just fine.
