    Land Rover ideas for Jeeps

    Those window guards, I would think they would capture more brush than protect the windows. Might keep out a bear or a two legged varmint. Did not think of having my Marston mats done in black, mine have stayed the relatively shiny aluminum color as delivered.

    Get a tarp from Harbor Freight, can't get cheaper than that.

    awning - NE USA

    If you are thinking batwing why not just get it and save yourself the cost of something you really don't want and put that money toward the wing? I would be willing to bet if you get the wing you will use it.

    Land Rover ideas for Jeeps

    If you use a round grill you could hide it beneath your spare tire cover. Only to be seen when you were using it for cooking

    Lr3 Air Strut leaking?

    I hav not ever noticed a drop or a self level on my 2007 LR. I drop to access height before putting it in the garage so not to scrape as I have a Front Runner RR and don't want to take a chance on a scrape or a jam. I also put the lock on in access height to avoid any rise over night. Had a...

    Lets talk shovels

    I have seen shovels that have 'teeth' on the business end but am wondering if there is any advantage in those over a regular, sharp round ended shovel.

    Stealth Nomad Trailers - Any Experiences or Thoughts?

    I was also impressed with those trailers and if you might be looking for flexibility and they are in your price range they seem a good deal. The not really an off road trailer might be a detriment to some. That is what the toys are for, to go off the road.

    Stealth Nomad Trailers - Any Experiences or Thoughts?

    It is right up there with surplus sites using the term 'Voodoo' it seems to add $$$ to the price of some simple object.

    Stealth Nomad Trailers - Any Experiences or Thoughts?

    It might be a great trailer, storage and living space but there is no way this is stealth.

    Question regarding hinges for a custom pop top

    Thanks. That photo shows well. Full height hinge keeps the door well aligned.

    Question regarding hinges for a custom pop top

    Interesting photo Kevin, perhaps one showing the 'hinge' would help explain your set up.

    Learning to weld questions

    Proper shoes, a leather apron to keep the grinder sparks from setting your clothes afire and yes leave the guard on the grinder. I have had a disk shatter and the sparks need to be contained. I also keep an ABC fire extinguisher in my shop handy. Safety is often set aside for expediency to...

    weights - general items

    Put all your stuff in your vehicle (that you know the weight of) and go to a roadside weigh station for a total. Easy math. I did that and found the total weight of my LR fully kitted with everything on a trip, with full tanks and me was 7000 pounds. I really did not care for the weight of...

    Mounting hardware is sold for the boards or with the boards. I recommend using the ones for the boards you buy.

    external key storage

    If you are going to use a magnet case make sure the surface it goes on has no undercoating. I put mine inside the frame, taped it shut and wired it to the frame through a bolt hole. Bumpy roads do not stand a chance.
