    Toilet Paper transportation and dispensing

    I clicked on the link, and now I want one. I used to be a zip-lock kind of guy, but with this thing I can have it hanging around my neck at the ready. Too cool.

    Ozark Trail/Walmart camping equipment

    Yeah; guilty as charged. I've only got so much money to dedicate to non-essentials (of which my wife thinks includes Jeep and truck stuff, camping gear, and guns and ammo). So I shop around to stretch my dollars, which includes shopping at Wal-Mart. Often they've got what I need, and at a...

    budget harbor freight build/2014 wrangler sport

    I think you will appreciate the spring retrofit kit (and your trailer and its contents will definitely appreciate them!). Keep the pictures coming.

    budget harbor freight build/2014 wrangler sport

    Mine are simply bolted on with two bolts (it comes with two obvious mounting holes for bolts). Due to the fact that the rear cross member sits a little higher than the outside pieces of channel (since it is sitting inside them), and since I bolted the stand in the corner (for one of the two...

    I guess maybe if you got one of the smaller, lighter ones.

    budget harbor freight build/2014 wrangler sport

    Thanks for linc, I think I need the longer ones but they were on same page . I need to measure. Right now I am using two car jack stands under rear corners then raising front jack to level and tighten Yes; I must have accidently linked you the shorter ones. These are the ones I put on my...

    Ozark Trail/Walmart camping equipment

    If you've got no skills to offer other than you're breathing and walking, what makes you think you deserve to make $25/hr to start anywhere you work? Do you think you are "owed" something? Aren't you special. Do you go to a car dealer and tell them you are "owed" a new Range Rover because you...

    budget harbor freight build/2014 wrangler sport

    I put three of these on my trailer to stabilize it; two in the back (for when I'm using the tent-cot RTT), and one on the tongue (to use as a tongue stand). Folds up underneath when not in use. Usually these little 4' HF-type trailers are so light (even when fully packed) you don't need a...

    M416 Tub

    Here is an M-100 Tub. Don't know if it will work on an M416. https://www.dlbensinger.com/product_info.php?cPath=72&products_id=1352&osCsid=a7a76ee2889479fafb4d38d581b108dc

    budget harbor freight build/2014 wrangler sport

    You're welcome, and good luck! I'm the one that started that HF trailer thread I linked for you above, but there have been a ton of folks who have contributed greatly to that thread (and who's ideas I have freely stolen for my build). If you can read through it (it is long), it might help you...

    You asked. Check out this thread; there is a table of contents on the first post to the comments below. http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f27/mini-harbor-freight-type-trailer-ultimate-build-up-thread-1180456/ Things I would suggest you do: 1. Upgrade the suspension. Those factory slipper...

    Nothing but problems with my Tepui, advice?

    Two (or more) comments. 1. Return and/or exchange your tent while you can. You know the weak points; address them before your first outing with your new one (replace hardware, etc.). 2. Someone mentioned tent cots. My buddy and I took two two-man tent cots (from Cabela's) on a three-week...

    anti theft for a rtt

    Big chain and lock through the trailer's tire and rim spokes and around the spring and axle. If you have a 2" receiver up front on your trailer, pull the hitch and put a locking pin in the hole. Put a sign on the inside of your vehicle's window that says "If I catch you, I will shoot you" (and...

    automatic knife sharpener on indiegogo?

    But I'm also the guy that spent just over $500+ for a new rifle to take overlanding (Rossi model 92 44 Mag lever action 16" barrel in stainless steel), put maybe two dozen rounds through it, and then spent another $500+ on modifications (big loop, smoothed action, etc.) and haven't fired it...

    automatic knife sharpener on indiegogo?

    I'll bite. I could never justify spending that much money on a knife sharpener for my own personal use.

    Utility trailer camping pod?

    I wonder if something like this could be adapted for putting on-and-off a trailer (instead of attached to the trailer itself): https://bigwoodycampers.com/

    I have one of their 10x13' tents that I've used for years and have been very happy with it.

    Freespirit recreation

    Nothing against all the RTTs out there, but they all start to look the same. These Recreation manual adventure series tents really caught my eye. http://www.gofsr.com/product/adventure-series-manual-55-roof-top-tent/ Totally different look, huge opening for the entry; I like them. I'll be...

    Tongue length calculation/formula?

    At a minimum, you want the tongue long enough so the trailer, when attached to the tow vehicle, can be at a 90-degree angle sideways and nothing making contact. I call it "the 90-degree test". So if you decide to add a cooler tray to the front of your trailer, the tongue may need to be...

    Custom adventure trailer stolen in Billings, MT

    I've been known to run a chain and lock through the wheels spokes and around the axle springs. And I like the simplicity of leaf springs and a solid axle.
