I actually like that....better than the stock version in my mind. Although if I were to quibble I would say lose the 6 lights over the cab (the glare would be horrible unless the hood was coated with rhinoshield or something similar). I'm also not a fan of that many lights in general. Plus I...

These were supposed to be released in spring 2018 from what I read. But I can't see that they are for sale anywhere? Anyone have an update? I'm curious if the studs "stay put" or get ripped out possibly of the plank wrecking/reshaping the hole which might make replacing them...

I would say fridge in the 2nd row seats (seats folded up). Be good for both camping trips and business in my mind. And wouldn't kill space in the bed. I dont know if you have kids or not and need the 2nd row seating a lot? You might consider some sort of tarp system off the back for camping...

Ha! Good analogy! Thanks I hadn't thought of the other plastic parts of the intake melting thus opening up the system to it. Makes sense. Part of me was thinking $100 extra (or whatever it is) for something that evaporates and doesn't leave any mess would be worthwhile. Cleaning today's engines...

Would sodium bicarbonate make it through the air filter? I'm just learning about clean agent extinguishers but darn they're not cheap. I get it that an extra $100 is short money but if another system works is it worth it. But maybe it's just not worth it and it's better to get the clean agent...

FWIW I have no tie to those company, just saw it on the web and figured I would pass it along. I know a lot of people get frustrated with the wind resistance of a RTT and/or the expense. But by the time they done fitting out the bed of the truck with the gear they want there isn't enough room to...

Interesting discussion, and with the ease of storage of synthetic line it's almost like some much lesser amt of line 50' - 60' and then a 50' extension or 2 in a bag would give you the best line pull strength while having enough length for long pulls when you need it. Very cool! :) always enjoy...

I have a question in this category- seeing the cost of some of the ropes like Bubba Rope I started looking at alternatives. And I see such varied weight claims of different kinetic ropes. Why is that? It would seem that dual braid nylon rope of the same size would all have the same capacity no...

I got a composite corkscrew once at a conference. It had a handle that slid inside the handle like alot of the plastic round ones but the corkscrew itself was composite too. I've lost it over the years but might be worth looking for one....I tried to find it at Amazon and found this one....might...

I would say a late 70's FJ40, best off the shelf 4WD I ever had. Insane strength, simple and bullet proof online 6. But unfortunately its insanely expensive now. I will ditto those who've said 70's-80's GM (Chevy or GMC). Makes no difference which one, they share all the same parts that...

Very well done imo and I'll echo everyone's sentiments on the pictures- superb! I also think Blackdawg has it right- get to know your vehicle and what you need. It will save you a lot of time and money. All too often I think equipment gets slapped on a vehicle without being needed or someone...

I just got a small tote...cant find it online or I'd post a picture and it's out in my shed and I'm feeling to lazy to go take one....but it's about 10" x 6" x 5" deep. Has decent latches on all four sides so it doesnt come loose. I usually get half sized spices except for salt, pepper, garlic...

Well done TrekboxX. I like that. I agree with the comment that if you make sure it fits the CampChef version as well it would allow for more people to "retrofit" existing items they have. Maybe they haven't added a pump etc so a somewhat ala cart version might make a lot of sense. Good luck!

I dont know enough about the material of the OzTent but could you use a towel and wipe down the interior of the tent if you had to set it up again wet? Or would that "create" tons of little leaks where water would continue to come through if rain continued (I remember the old days of canvas...

I love hi-lifts for their flexibility and agree with 67cj5. To me their worth is much more than just jacking a vehicle. But like any tool it has limitations and needs to be used wisely. You cant escape the danger associated with weight and height. I've seen the cable version TernOverland...

Great looking build! Love the custom flatbed and storage. Is your engine stock? If so you might look at some of the lab tests of K&N filters versus OEM. They seem good for engines pushing huge HP and needing lots of air but for stock, it seems they may not be the best choice. I went back to OEM...

I always have had Craftsman and Snap-On. I personally don't like the Snap-On wrenches...the handle/middle is really narrow and cuts into my fingers more than the thicker Craftsman ones. You can find Craftsman on sale as many have said or find them on Craigslist cheap too. Yes I find ratchets the...

Yup....you've gotten good advice here....use the latest version, but be prepared to turn around, which on lots of small single tracks means backing up. ;) Also while Google maps "will" plot routes it definitely doesn't pick up many bridges that are out so dont even try to use it, at least in...

Really enjoying your writeups, photography and simple approach to life. So great to see! Thank you for sharing them!

Thanks for posting this. And so great for the kids to see it from the ground. So many just fly here or there they have no idea what a lot of the country looks like. Well done!
