    Land Rover ideas for Jeeps

    Not too sure about the charcoal cooker as there are many places I go that do not allow fires of any type. I have a propane campfire that seems to be sanctioned by camp ground rangers everywhere I have gone. Charcoal is messy and there is the issue of disposal of the coals or ash. I can use it...

    Amazing First Overland Trip In The Books

    Congratulations. It is always great to see two people that enjoy each other so much that they make it paramount that they share aspects of their life they both enjoy.

    Tarp Material and how to attach it to itself.

    I have things made by BritKLR and their/his items are well made and some I have, so far, have lasted years with no visible wear or deterioration. I post this only because I am a owner of his products. I have not tried the Tyvec material only because of the noise and through these posts...

    Storing Fuel Cans in Enclosed Roof Cargo Box

    I use the Nato type cans, they do not leak no matter which way they are mounted. I used to carry them on the roof rack but no longer. Just too heavy to be lowering down to use or lifting them up to store. I would not carry them inside even if the chance of leaking is not an issue. I have eight...

    Kitchen Kit/Chuck Box

    I see the great boxes that folks have made and I think that they are wonderful ideas. I began with milk cartons slid under the back platform in my Mog, then to those same cartons in my Pinzgauer. Now that I have anLR all that stuff has transferred to Cub boxes and see through plastic bins that...

    Down Comforters

    Insulation under is very important as well as layers on top, as you say. Ah yes, the smell of Pinesol can be rather invigorating. Rather than spend money for a container I use an old olive jar, they have a tight fitting lid. Hate getting up in the middle of the night in the cold, rain, snow or...

    Lets talk shovels

    I like the little flairs on the top of the head of the Fiskars, they make for a much better grip with your foot and increase the 'push' power. Full lifetime guarantee,too.

    Abandoned/derelict sites

    That big dome is where they used to burn sawdust from the mill before they discovered it could, by adding glue, turn it into composite board and make money on the waste material.

    Down Comforters

    I am curious as well and will follow this thread with interest. I use an open sleeping bag with a military surplus type of filled blanket on top when temps drop. I have not seen ratings for down comforters. Only for sleeping bags so you might use two comforters for the proper temp you wish to...

    I get most of my stuff (tool rolls, etc.) from Adventure Tools and their stuff is great, seem to last forever and is my best direction to recommend things for my vehicle and made in America, which is very important to me.

    New hiking boots or sneakers to hike the Bruce Trail

    Lowa Renegade from REI. Reasonably light and with ankle support they are the boots I wear hiking and when off roading. No lightweight fabric boots for me as there things in the desert that poke through fabric.

    OBA for camping/beach and trails

    I have had a Viair for years that fits exactly in a fat 50 ammo can. Dust and waterproof and easily transported to another vehicle if required. Used it for my MOG and Pinzgauer and now the Land Rover. The idea of adding it to a vehicle never came to mind although some may as to suits their...

    Land Rover ideas for Jeeps

    I would want to be able to move the vehicle after showering so as to not have a soupy mess just outside my door. I don't dump water next to my vehicle from any other source to avoid a puddle.

    Land Rover ideas for Jeeps

    I had a roof top tent mounted my M416A trailer. It was really a good deal till one night camping in Canyon de Che the wind came up and the fly was flapping so much (really loud) and the tent was shaking so much we abandoned it, let it down and slept in the Pinzgauer. Shortly after I sold it and...

    Fishing neck gaiters

    I suppose you could spray the gaiter with deet as well to help ward off the little buggers. Are there any that come impregnated with repellant as some shirts and pants do? edit: did see them on REI site. https://www.rei.com/product/146018/buff-coolnet-uv-insect-shield-multifunctional-headwear

    ALUMINUM EXTRUSION cargo shelf and barrier, quick and simple!

    I had thought about having the fridge on a slider like many have shown but after thinking about the most common use I decided to place the fridge between the second row seats. Removing the middle seat. This allows for using the fridge from either rear door when stopped or from the front seat...

    New Defender News

    I know there is a lot of conversation about the new Defender and some only talk about things they don't like. I had the occasion to park next to one and chatted with the owner for a bit. We were, of course, comparing each to the other. Their comments were based on owning a new one and their...
