Why wouldn’t you freeze the steaks? Is there some sort of secret steak lore I don’t know about? I’m pretty sure steak is aged above 33 F. Maybe buy full cuts, partially freeze it, and cut each steak off the end as you go? If you want to geek out on the cooler just for fun, maybe fill it...

I added some LED “interior dome” lights to the underside surface. Working out pretty nicely so far.

After 700 or so I probably would have started looking at the fuel injectors...

This underscores my point above. This is clearly amateur work... because they are using the white zip ties!

The design of the swing is just as important as the style if you tow a trailer. Mine makes the swing significantly wider (think longer tongue) and because the vertical distance from swing to hitch is low, you really have to think through tongue design to make sure you aren’t hitting it with the...

Commercial truck places that rent to construction companies will have what you want, but likely with relatively few interior “features”.

I’m pretty sure I don’t qualify as an amazing build, but my rear bumper on my JK is a single swing, Smittybilt Atlas, and I’ve done some modifications. It holds: Spare Tire CB Antenna Dune Flag mount Jerry can of gas Jerry can of drinking water Hi-lift (yes I can use it all the way around) 2...

I suspect that you are being extremely generous toward your fellow human when you assume that fire is associated with an engineered propane system. When I see that news item, I’m much more likely to assume that was somehow drug related, or perhaps associated with some very sketchy heating system.

Lots of zip ties here. I go one further and heat the end after cutting off so it melts into a smooth blob and doesn’t create a sharp edge to nip me when I’m not expecting it. Even the UV resistant ones need a 3-4 year refresh in the California sun, but can’t beat the holding power and...

That goes along with listing basic parts replacements as upgrades. For some reason Land Rover listings always seem to come with a long list of parts replacements that make if feel like a frame off restoration was performed. Nobody ever questions why one was necessary?

You will likely find better prices on much heavier duty melamine stuff at Walmart or Target.

If you buy a new hose, it would be interesting to cut the old one and see what it looks like inside. It won’t be any consolation, but everyone deals with stuff like this. I’m on the tail end of a 6 week saga dealing with contaminated propane in our 120,000 gallon storage system at my work...

Wow! It must have been nice to be able to afford styrofoam plates AND ammunition in the same week! ?

Are you running your tests with the engine running or off? Does the fridge work with the engine running?

Just do the airbags. You’ll be glad you did and they are only about $100.

I still think you need to check the end to end resistance of your system. You have likely got a bad/loose connection somewhere. Check the resistance of your cord first, it should be very low, but not zero (open circuit in the cord) Replacing all of the wire is likely to eliminate whatever the...

When you say you cut it down shorter, did you remove that section that had been pinched?

You pretty much covered my list, but might also think about: Will you be mounting water tanks or gas cans? Will you want a telescopic tongue? I could go a while on the challenges I ran into doing that. Safety chain mounts? Adequate room for a tongue Jack? Sliders underneath to protect anything...

I would run ground back to battery for sure. In my JK I ran a pair of 6awg from battery to a blue sea fuse panel with ground terminals in the back, then ran the arb fridge cord directly to the panel, no plug. It has worked really well over the years (maybe 6 now? Almost 7?). In my wife’s...

Cant really see in the picture, is that the female half of the plug inside the arb socket? Melted? You must have had a high resistance connection (bad crimp or solder) causing heat. I would cut that off and just hard wire the thing with no plug, that is what I’ve always done in the past.
