    Do you feel the need to have a weapon when camping

    Driving a pink Miata through Texas + genuine simulated RPG = one Bad Hombre. Or maybe = Jack Kerouac. Regardless, I admire the style. "Stand off, Ruffian, lest I launch on your skinny ***!" Moreover, it must be effective, at least in Texas where they know their weapons.

    Little Guy Ruggedized for Fire-road Runner

    I had a brake controller installed in my Subaru Outback this spring by an automotive specialties shop (you know, stereos, lights, winches, window tinting, trailer hitches - all the farkles a vehicle can carry). While I was waiting and talking to the owner (a friend), the installer came out of...

    retrofitting aluminum trailer

    Sources for doors and windows I used etrailer.com and Vintage Technologies for mine. There are many more sources disclosed in the builds here, and Mr. Google is always your friend. Good luck, and I look forward to seeing this progress!

    Preventing a deep dish of gumbo.... Neverwet on my new wheels

    Perfect! Captures and encapsulates not only the arguments but the "combatants" as well!

    Project Microtrac

    Love the video. Must have scared the neighbors to see and hear that little tiger rolling by. I think the only thing missing is a way to emit dark oily smoke form somewhere on the machine . . .

    Cases for or against extending transmission and trans-case breathers

    ARB makes a $40 kit. I put one on my Outback for the shallow stream crossings I do. Google ARB 170112 Differential Axle Breather.

    Sawtooth XL Build

    Two coats of Monstaliner on it today, and I am headed home in the morning. I was tempted to stay and finish it, but the Monstaliner is really supposed to cure for 7-10 days. My brother will finish the "garage" and secure it firmly against the wind and other weather. Thanks for...

    Sawtooth XL Build

    Too Hot To Work The ambient temperature the last three days has been above 80 during the day, which is too hot to apply the Monstaliner. Today, it was 98 in the direct sun at 1:30. I am hoping it will cool off tomorrow so I can get the coating on. I will start very early in the morning and...

    The Carney Trailer

    Don't worry, plenty of people are watching this build. Your welding and fabricating skills are beyond awesome, and that frame is hell for stout. I, too, look forward to seeing the body on the frame with the wheels under it. That was, for me, a very exciting moment and milepost on the road to...

    Sawtooth XL Build

    Yesterday I finished bolting the body to the trailer frame. I think it looks pretty good under there. Then I finished the galley hatch (finally!) and set it over the galley itself for a photo op. This photo is before I trimmed off the bottom. After its photo, I took it inside, trimmed it...

    Sawtooth XL Build

    Quick Update Progress has been frustratingly slow. Saturday was spent getting new tires mounted on the Subaru. The BF Goodrich KO-2s are a major (and expensive) disappointment. The right rear wore down to the wear bars at a little over 8,000 miles, and the left rear had a little over 20%...

    HEMA Explorer North America

    Let us know when those bugs are worked out. I'm not convinced yet that what they are marketing is going to work. I'm aware of their generally good reputation in other areas of the world, but I am not enthralled by what they are offering here.
