    Eezi-Awn Globetrotter Question before I buy.

    Globetrotter Guy Line? I have a Globetrotter which has never had the changing room panels taken off. That said, my guess is that you only will need the guy lines in wind. Even though these are sturdy tents, I was very glad we were guyed off last year in Moab when our camp got hit with some...

    Carbon Monoxide Detector in Trailer- Where to mount?

    CO detector spec'd to work below freezing This just arrived. Seven year battery life. 14F to 104F operating range. I also like the size....a bit larger than a deck of cards.

    Stock Tacoma Wheels & Tires on Chaser?

    Hub Centric Spacer- What is it? Found the information regarding hub centric spacers here. Makes sense now. Thanks for the heads up! I now understand that it is this ring, that aligns the wheel to the hub, that makes the spacer hub-centric. BTW, IIRC, the drums that come on the Chaser...

    Carbon Monoxide Detector in Trailer- Where to mount?

    CO detector that works in below freezing weather Just placed an order through Amozon.co.uk for the Fireangel CO-9X. $65 total with shipping. Shipping from the UK was $37 of the $65. Ouch! I let everyone know when/if it arrives.

    Carbon Monoxide Detector in Trailer- Where to mount?

    CO detector specified to work below freezing Thanks for the link. I was hoping for something more consumer oriented. (i.e. less spendy) Looks like this one fits the bill and is available through Amazon.UK. (Fireangel CO-9B) I'll see if they'll ship state side.

    Stock Tacoma Wheels & Tires on Chaser?

    Hub centric? Jeff, Thanks for the response. I already have a Chaser that is set up to run the Jeep wheels (5x5 lug pattern) with 37x13.50 tires. (requires a 2" spacer) The plan is to buy an extra set of 6x5.5 lug pattern (Tacoma) drums to swap out the Jeep drums, when I want to use the...

    Stock Tacoma Wheels & Tires on Chaser?

    Thanks, spacers would definitely give me the clearance needed. My current setup (Toyo MT 37x13.5) is running a 2" spacer. Just wondering if anyone is running this setup without the use of spacers. I could find wheels with different backspace for the trailer, but then they wouldn't fit the...

    Stock Tacoma Wheels & Tires on Chaser?

    Anyone running stock Tacoma wheels and tires on a Chaser? A quick measurement gave me 7" from the wheel mounting surface to the edge of the trailer tub. I measured the backspace on the Tacoma wheels at about 5 1/4". It appears a stock Tacoma wheel, with the stock LT265/70R16 mounted, will...

    Carbon Monoxide Detector in Trailer- Where to mount?

    CO detector that works in freezing temps I understand your argument BUT....after talking to one manufacture's tech support, the problem is the batteries not the CO detector. They recomended not letting the batteries freeze. (Not sure why, my flashlight works fine in freezing temps.) This is...

    Carbon Monoxide Detector in Trailer- Where to mount?

    Which CO detector? Which CO detector are you guys using? Most that I've found don't work below 32F. I typically only use the heater when it is below freezing.

    "Skinny" Tires...

    Tacoma Wheels 16x7 Downhill is correct that the Tacoma wheels are spec'd at 16x7. I verified this morning with the dealer' parts department, using my VIN, that the wheels for the 2012 Tacoma Double Cab with the Off Road Package is 16x7.

    "Skinny" Tires...

    2012 tacoma rim 16x8?? Got the PM and responded. Thanks. Well, I had the tires off the rims last week and I thought I measured the rim width from outside to outside at 8 1/4". Inside to inside was close to 8". Interesting comment on the 7" rim width. You've got me wondering if I misread...

    "Skinny" Tires...

    Narrow wheels, where? Downhill, Too bad the 16x8 stock wheels are too wide for the 235's. Where did you find the 7" wheel for your 235's? (I saw the pcis of your rig and it looked like you were running stock wheels.. Downhill's rig? ) Edited 02-13-2012: The 2012 stock Tacoma wheels are...

    Propex Heatsource furnace question

    Mine is setup in the AT "toolbox". Very compact. I carry 2 pieces of duct. One is the heavy duty duct, supplied by AT, for the supply air. The second is a piece of 4", flexible, downspout tube purchased at Lowes for the return air. I am using this with a Eezi Awn Globetrotter. I set the...

    Propex Heatsource furnace question

    Catalytic Heater Is the Propex really a catalytic heater? I believe, the Propex burns propane to heat the interior space's inside air pulled through the sealed heat exchanger, the combustion isn't heating the conditioned air directly. That said, I'd still vent the combustion gases to the...
