    Rank my shopping list

    Looking for an older LR with what you want isn't really that difficult to find. You may have to go out of state. Start your search at local LR repair shops as well some have vehicles with all the known issues and what it will take to get them to peak condition. My 07 LR3 HSE just turned over to...

    Revel gear pre-sale

    If they were gaging interest that would be one thing but asking for money and not delivering, quite another. This type of action is why I do not usually bother with this type of enterprise. I like to see new products come on line but non delivery will kill even the most promising of businesses...

    For sale OZ RV3 tent bag. Nothing wrong with it, I got a Drifta tent bag and this one is now an extra bit of kit taking up space in my garage. $30 plus postage. Located in Denver, CO 80247 local pick up is always better.

    Jerry can vs Rotopax for trailer

    Having traveled a lot using Nato cans and comparing their capacity vs the Roto capacity and price, I can buy 3 Nato cans for the price of one high volume Roto. That is 15 gallons vs 4 for a root. The real Nato cans (not cheap nock offs) do not leak, even on their sides. Not sure of the Rotos...

    Entrenching Tool

    I carry a shovel. If you are going to reference some piece of gear put a link in there so people can see what you are talking about. Makes it easier to help you and for others to make a comparison.

    ARB JACK vs. Hi-Lift Jack

    When one is able to buy a HiLift for $80 vs an ARB for $800, the range of dollars spent for what it will do is not even close to proportional. I do have a winch so not needing one for that is not a loss for me but for just lifting a vehicle it appears that many bottle jacks will perform better...

    Using GAP Iddtool to level up for camping

    Somewhere near where you are camping is a reasonably level place to camp, stop or sleep, shouldn't be that difficult to find. I have RV bubble levels in my LR that show me, reasonably well, if I am level for sleeping. I don't use the GAP tool to alter my corners, way too much hassle. But if you...

    Help me Pick Lift and Tires

    I have DuraTracs on 18s and in off road height I find the stock height adjustment more than adequate for CO trails. I don't rock climb. Can't see going over 30 off road so I am comfortable with stock adjustments. Perhaps you are in the wrong vehicle for the type of driving you want to do. Just a...

    Sewing Thread....A discussion on making your own adventure textile gear.

    Did not know there was more than one kind of tailors marking chalk. I have only seen blue and white. Good to know.

    Concrete slab thickness for vehicle lift? (And some great concrete suggestions!)

    Never do the min for a slab, 5 to 6 inch is better. As a minimum use 4000 pound concrete and get it verified by the invoice from the concrete company for later insurance claims. Use min 3/8 inch 24 inch on center rebar (wired together) not mesh. Dig a min of 24 inch deep by 36 inch square...

    2020 Defender Spy Shots....

    At last you've got to it. You do yourself a great disservice bashing other vehicles. Each person gets what they want, give it a break.

    Storing Propane

    I carry mine on the roof rack when traveling so the only issue is getting whacked by branches. Would never carry or store it inside the vehicle.

    MaxTrax, are they worth it?

    I am curious about the size of hole folks want to span. If it just a hole, go around it if it is a crack in the rock perhaps your tires are not big enough. If you are going up or down a shelf perhaps your arrival and departure angle of your vehicle is not made for that shelf or the power and...
