On the AT moto trailer the spindle nut retainer was not properly put together. It struck me as a quality control issue. Unless AT really buys the axles and never takes anything regarding the hub apart at which point I could understand saying it had nothing to do with AT. This is exactly why I...

Originally I wanted to bring a disabled participant on this outing but after a couple of cancellations (the downside of making it free is that it is super easy to back out) I instead invited the family to join so we could enjoy the outdoors the way we used to. My son took these pics when he felt...

Martin is was a real pleasure to meet you and everyone else. I wish you had gotten more time behind the wheel of the Sportsmobile as they are crazy fun rigs. Mark & Todd great job on the history and local knowledge you guys have of the area. The Walnut Dam part was super cool! Scott thank for...

I live here and I don't know of anyone... I love my Sportsmobile and that is my only 4wd van experience. Looking at your list of spec's I would say you have some work cut out for you :) Also please please don't just go to anyone because they are local, this forum & www.sportsmobileforum.com are...

This is one of the reasons I in a love/hate relationship with sponsorship when I comes to Disabled Explorers. What do I do when a company offers a product as a sponsorship and that product fails? Do I be honest with the public that holds an expectation that I be honest and protect them from...

I have lifted my 11,000lb Sportsmobile with my ARB X-jack using the Extreme Outback air compressor and it worked great. Very stable, wraps around either axle with ease and lifts a corner in a safe & controled manner. I love it!

I will be bringing the wife, son & son's friend and will meet everyone at the turnoff as I think that is closer to Phx than Prescott.... I am looking forward to a great time, and it is good to know this isn't a carnage happy crowd :)

Looks like I am in with the family, I was working on a disabled participant but that didn't pan out and the family is willing to join in so it works out perfect. More than likely won't be able to stay for dinner in CK but it will be great to see everyone. Any issues Mark with bringing the...

Great job on the pics of documents and the traveler tips...it is adding a cool aspect to the trip where I can tell how much you want others to get out and travel also

I have run Extreme Outback High Output and Magnum on my vehicles and each had a 2 gal tank. I love the fact that I can air up tires, run air tools, dust off the interior and do a bunch of other stuff with a setup that is always there and ready to roll.

Wow, just incredible pics, thanks so much for taking them and then sharing with us I love Utah and your pics/story make me want to load up the family and go, NOW :)

Great info Toolman, I was lucky to go through my State Farm agent with State Farm Bank I did a 10 year loan for $75,000 and it is listed as a Class B RV just like you said.

Incredible pics Ben and Bev makes a great model. Tell more on the Redoxx kitchen bag, any shots of the inside or what you are putting where? Their stuff is very tough and well made. Also how is the solar working with the National Luna fridge & Powerpack? Everything play well together?

Hey I knew that rig look familiar.. your pic was my Sportsmobile West Christmas card...very cool. Ok now spill the beans on the second spare tire/pull pal holder on the back. It looks like something that drops the tire low and out of the way of the doors...do tell more.

I love the list of suggestions and agree completely... being fun, nice, respectful and honest are prime rules for everyone in life, but especially travelers in other countries

as usually you guys do a great write up and make me always add another place to the visit list... I gotta say the "style" of your writing mixed with the pics is killer thanks for taking the time to put this together as that is harder than the traveling to me

not sure about the best pricing or not but I know I have run Viking Winchline from Thor on 2 rigs beating it up and never a problem. I am getting great results pulling the 11,000lb Sportsmobile and very happy. Plus Viking supports the forum here, then again so does MasterPull :)

Wow I can't believe those shreaded tires... I put 36,000 miles on a set of Nitto Trail Grappler 33's and when they came off they were still in great enough shape to give a buddy who is running them....never a flat, never any chunking or anything....11,000 lb rig aired down to 30 on rocks, 10 on...

thanks for the kind words everyone... I am super lucky to have a job as a ICU RN that gives me the overtime to cover the basic cost ($1500/month) but the day trips and other outings only happen with support from volunteers and donations....no grants, no big company support, just everyday people...

I will completely disagree on the off road ability of the Sportsmobile West 4wd conversion. And my 39,000 miles in the last year involve mostly newbie disabled folks driving the van with me instructing. The critical difference I did was disconnect the front sway bar and leave it that way. It...
