    Is a 4Runner for me?

    Cooler, a convertible versus an SUV. Trust me I love my 4Runner, it's a great vehicle but is about as exciting as my couch. It is much easier to modify a Jeep Wrangler than a 4Runner. I can lift my jeep with 4 spacers (or springs), 4 shocks, a friend a few tools and a tape measure to realign...

    Is a 4Runner for me?

    I can't comment on the Subaru but have both a jeep Wrangler and a Toyota 4Runner. I get 20-24 mpg usually in the 4Runner and about 14 in the Jeep. My 4Runner is stock (2004) and my Wrangler (2001) is not. The 4Runner has ALLOT of glass and sheet metal to get bent and broke compared to the...

    Zambia has returned to hunting of leopards and lions

    Selling permits for controlled trophy hunting is very beneficial. The community makes money of this and then hopefully works against poachers. Trophy animals will usually be the larger males. They will be older and maybe physically more powerful but they don't make babies like the younger...

    Receiver mounted MFC carrier

    Good deal. The ones I have are the Military issue and they don't have a colored strap. When I was in the Army most of the fuel we used was diesel but there were somethings that used regular gas. I am assuming mine has the gaskets for diesel.

    Receiver mounted MFC carrier

    If you are ever through MO you can just drop it off. I just noticed you caps have the yellow strap on your caps. That usually indicates they are for diesel instead of gas. The difference is the gasket they use in the cap. The wrong gasket will break down over time (not sure how long it takes)...

    how to tell if a CB radio is damaged

    Why? Modern radios will not be damaged if the SWR is high. OP, make sure you antenna is properly mounted and has a good RF ground. That is all you really need to do. You can tune it for better performance. New stuff won't do you any better than old stuff if your antenna is popularly...

    Overland TJ's (Ideas, Pic's, etc for 97-06 Jeep TJ's)

    Here is what I have done. I got rid of the center console. That thing is a waste. its has very little useable space. I can pack almost as much into an ammo can and the place an extra bag on top and end up with much more storage area. I made a shelf up front. It is made from a bed rali cut...

    Receiver mounted MFC carrier

    that basket is some good work. If it is only temporary for you let me know when you are done using it. I can give it a permanent home.

    Transport 20 lbs propane tank to camp

    Trailer or my truck. Regardless of their rule that is how I would transport it anyway. Not because of safety, just because that is easiest for me. I only get propane once a year so no big deal.

    Receiver mounted MFC carrier

    Great work. If you ever decide to drive tougher terrain you can do what I did. Just add another receiver for your basket. Mounting it up here will allow you to open your tailgate without having to take things off.

    Transport 20 lbs propane tank to camp

    it is there way or the highway for me. I live in a rural area. Others providers only deliver to larger tanks. I have smaller camper tank and one a few times larger for my ventless fireplace in the house. Neither is large enough where somebody will come out and fill. I have one option within...

    Transport 20 lbs propane tank to camp

    The place I take my tanks to fill will not fill them unless you have a way to transport them outside of the passenger area. Even if you have a large cargo van they will not fill the tank if they know you will be transporting it where there could be passengers. DOT has no regulation governing...

    winch in bumper or receiver mount?

    A hitch rated to carry a heavier load will mount up the frame in multiple points. A bumper may on mount to the end of the frame. A regular hitch can carry more weight because that weight is spread up the frame rail. If you make you bumper attaches like a class III hitch I would think that...
