I don't think I have ever seen one of those. Heck MJ's are rare enough and yes... thanks to Mario... I want one too. :drool:

Part of the output shaft's strength comes from the slip yoke surounding it. There is also a bushing that the slip yoke transfers load to the housing. Without the slip yoke there, the shaft is kind of hanging out in air (inside the housing). This, over time, will takes its toll on internal...

My bad. I swore I had read somewhere that TW had finally released a new shaft (versus modified stock) SYE for the 242. Guess I was smoking crack that day. :ylsmoke:

Yep, there is the exact reason I would not go with RE or most other lift companies. They seem to end up much higher then advertised. If I get a 5.5" lift, I want a 5.5" lift, not a 7" that "might" settle in years. I like the OME stuff because you typically get what is advertised. The higher...

x2. That's what I have. Remember, it's not so much the radio but the antenna and setting the SWR that makes or breaks a CB setup. A great radio with a crappy antenna is worthless against a cheap CB with a great antenna setup. Good luck.

Thanks for the offer Dave. Let me get over to the trailer and double check that I can slip straps behind the tire. IIRC, it is mounted flush with the front of the Kamparoo. Might need to get creative. I'll let you know. Thanks! Mike

Great idea and product Dave and Yoshi (oh and Dixie). Question for you, it says it will fit a 30"-35" tire. Is it that you run out of adjustment to go smaller? I would like to get one for our Kamparoo (hey a Trasharoo for the Kamparoo :D ) but the spare on it is about a 27" or so. Will it go...

Nice! Like how you used your storage boxes as steps up into the overhead.

Bump to the top and confirming we are going. I added a post into the CA/NV forum, linking this post, since there might be more local traffic. Hope to see a bunch of ExPo'ers there.

I don't think anyone can really answer that with specifics. 100# of plate is going to be a very different cost than 100# of square or round tubing, which will be very different then angle iron, hot rolled or cold rolled stock, etc., etc. I also find my local supplier (IMS Metal) has different...

I have had VERY good luck with parts bought from www.etrailer.com 5 on 5 here. http://www.etrailer.com/pc-tphd~84556UC3.htm

Overland Journal trailer testing in Prescott, AZ, May 2008. Favorite shot taken More of the trailer then Jeep El Camino Del Diablo, Dec. 2008, solo trip

Nice to see ya post up and relay some good info. I know I have been VERY happy with my Super Rails. :D I am happy you put safety and reliability before cost. Cost is why everyone else seems to use spindles, which were never designed for this type of application and when a failure happens, it...

Welcome to the world of Optima. Over the last number of years, the quality of them went in the crapper. You couldn't give me one now. Since it would still be under warranty, go have it swapped out but when you are finally fed up with them or need to replace it, go look at the Sears Platinum...

I had seen this change regarding the hinge and FINALLY a manufacturer decided the laws of physics played a more important part the ease of building. I have been saying for years, the swing out pivot needed a top mount, so it took away the load from being placed where the spindle meets the...

Just a bump to the top. This sounds like a fun run and the fund raising is for a very good cause, IMHO. Let's get fired up about this run! :wings:

Nice bumper. AJ's did a great job. Hope you don't mind if I take a couple ideas from yours when I do my winch bumper up. :D Cool setup for the OBA. Hope you can get your fuse problem taken care of. I know you got a lot of ideas from your thread.

x10 I won't ever by another one of them. My Sears Platinum (i.e. Odyssey) has been working great and getting very good reviews. I have had 4 different Optimas (both red and yellow top) ones die within 6 month and have yet to get more then 2 years from any of them. If under load your voltage...

Personally I have used these many times in different rigs. Here is an 80 amp version. You can find them other places but here is one, http://order.waytekwire.com/productdetail2/M37/46983/HI%20AMP%20MANUAL%20RESET%2080%20AMP/

Nice pics. Love the one you dropping down and lifting the rear tire. :D
