    LETS SEE YOUR TRAILERS!!!!

    With everything on the same bars, the rtt is off center but at the limit of the width of the trailer (Maybe 1 or 2 inch overhang). The upper portion of the trailer as the same width of a jeep tub. I have to admit that the left kayak is a bit in my driver side mirror, but I can still see rear...

    rtt and carrying stuff

    If you reverse and put the kayak/board/canoe under the tent, you will not have to removee anything to open the tent.. It might be higher, but it is way more convinient. I've tried it, and not having to removee the stuff you do not need to be able to make camp for a night is way better than...

    rtt and carrying stuff

    This was my fisrt attemp /version to carry 2 kayaks and the RTT. The Nissan in front is my DD To high in my mind, but a paddle board would make the RTT lower. Kayak are pretty thick and they are on Holly roller and cradle from Yakima. So about 3" more in hight. Version 2.0 Much better in my...

    Converting To LED Headlights

    well, Theire seems to be one draw back but It might not apply to you. Someone might be able to confirm, I've heard that when you drive in the snow, since they hardly put out any heat, To snow would not be melting on the light. So you loose visibility. That is if you ever get to drive in a...

    Kitchen Kit/Chuck Box

    Perso, even if a lot of people like them, I do not like the taper shape ans also the lack of square corners. Harder to be efficient when packing in the tote and also loosing space in the vehicule because of the same "round" corners! I prefer the sportsman's trunk from Plano at walmart. But it...

    What would you do to a YJ for a Cross US trip from East to West and back...

    IMO having the top on create more noise and fatigue than going topless. And you do not ear road noise as much and do not suffer from engine heat. I do have a web shade over the roll bar for sun protection. But all depend if you will be driving in the cold or in warm weather. For the rest, I...
