    I have this one for campground camping. It is about 2400lbs dry and about 17 feet (plus hitch) folded up.

    Winter Storage: Filled MFC outside car?

    You say MFC fuel can so I assume you mean the MFC Scepter can. While in the Army I had that type of fuel container in temps form about 0 to about 125deg and never had an issue, inside or outside the vehicle. I still have a couple and when I take them I have always stored them in the Jeep. I...

    Here is one where we were getting ready to head out to a Jeep Jamboree type event. There was some barrel racing and there similar events and my son (probably about 10 at the time) wanted to take a shot at with this go kart.

    I really couldn't imagine my 2004 as a trail rig. It sits low and the under side seem pretty vulnerable. As far as a dirt road, very very mild trial rig and even snow it is very good. The power in the V6 is more than adequate and gets me up to 24 mpg. I also have a camper that weighs about...

    1985 4x4 pickup.

    For me the older 4Runner would be built for offroading, but be able to be driven on the road. The top comes off so less glass to worry about. There are canvas options for a top. It has less sheet metal than other SUVs. It wouldn't need to go fast, it wouldn't need to be comfortable. It...

    1985 4x4 pickup.

    I have an 2004 4Runner (stock) with the 4.0 V6 and it is a great motor. I have an 01 Wrangler modified for offroading. I would love an older 4Runner with the top that comes off and a solid front axle. Rust is a killer in my area and finding a good older vehicle is a challenge. The Chevy...

    1985 4x4 pickup.

    I never even looked at it. The people I talked to about it with so convincing in their dislike for it. It would have been a truck for my son. He will be 16 in less than a year and a half. My boys grandpa has had various Nissan 2X4 for decades and has nothing but good things to say about...

    I ended up passing on it. I spoke with a few people I knew that actually had similar ones years ago. One was a mechanic and the other a "shade tree mechanic" both recommended against buying it.

    Keeping it light

    You don't have to spend allot on a trailer. I have a 5X10 cargo trailer ( you can get a smaller one if you wanted) and did a spring over and have 33s on it. You can get a trailer for a few hundred bucks. If you want to make it taller a spring over really won't cost you anything. I got hubs...

    Useful hitch covers

    This and the pooper seat both seem to be a good options. As comical as the pooper seat seems it seems like it could really be useful. The option above also could serve a real purpose.

    Need help looking for a good spot for hard mount air compressor.

    I have the small ARB under the hood of my wrangler, about the same locations as Kmrtnsn. It has been their since 2001 and no problems.

    ARB portable compressor

    I had a CO2 setup in the past and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. If you buy one already done it will cost over $200, if you setup you own it will cost you over $100.00 CO2 works great but the tanks need to be refilled. You have to weigh them to see how you have than then guess to see if you...

    Keeping it light

    Trailers are great if the terrain allows. If I can take a trailer behind the Jeep I take everything I can, even a generator and a window AC unit. If I can't take a trailer I go as light as possible but My trips like that aren't longer than a night or two. I don't even take a cooler but I do...

    Useful hitch covers

    It looks like it would bend too easy for anything other than a straight pull. I do think it would be fine as a step or tie down point.

    I wouldn't either but I am not recovering anything that heavy.

    Useful hitch covers

    exactly what you said. There is a difference in the design of a hitch and a recovery point, and there intended purposes. Recovery points on a bumper will usually pass through the bumper and mount to the frame or if the bumper is built wheel they could attach to the bumper but the mounts will be...
