OME Shocks I ran OME shocks (and complete suspension) on my FJ60 and really like what they did for the ride and handling. They are especially good on rutted roads at medium speed. They performed very well. I am also running OME suspension and shocks on my FZJ80 - heavy springs and shocks...

Pasquale Do not let Steve (Grouseman) see those pictures! He'll be on his way to AZ the same day. Nice sanitary job. I hope that DG enjoys the shower on the trail...:victory: M

Steve Have a nice trip. Take some fishing gear, and post pictures when you get back. M

You already have a battery and wiring, but prolly don't have a compressor and air lines. So that is one reason. I believe that cost on the factory unit might be less by the time you are done with installation. M:xxrotflma

The BLM is basically doing what the Bush Administration has been doing for the entire adminisration. The Administration's record of environmental protection sucks... revamping grazing rules for public lands to favor rancher over other users, delisting endangered and threatened species to unlock...

Steve Why not drop an e-mail to mario@adventuretrailers.com I am sure he will oblige. This stuff is the bomb! Mario is a straight shooter, and builds a super tough trailer. I saw one at the shop that was rolled on the highway at 65 MPH and still totally functional - tho' bashed up a bit. I...

New Adventure Trailer Chaser I visited Adventure Trailers today, and got a first hand look at the new Chaser. This is a very well built trailer. I was especially impressed with the suspension system. The two, independently sprung wheels are attached to two heavy duty trailing arms, cushioned...

I visites Mario (ElCoyote) today and had a chance to see the gas can holders. Wow. Hell for Stout, and not too heavy. In a pinch you could use them under the axles as a jack stand. Really nice work, and he's targeting a reasonable price. I'm going to have to figure out how to mount some on my...

Ah, a very good long time friend and hunting buddy's wife is a good friend of Jan Bruce, DB's wife. He has CASES of the stuff packed away. He gets regular invites to my hunting camp in NE Oregon, naturally. I always have some chukars or grouse on hand for an occasion. Happy to help with your...

Steve It looks roomy. But I would be sure to camp in areas of little or no wind. It could sail on you. Is this a homemade job, or from a manufacturer? Mike

I carry 4 CARB compliant Blitz cans on the trailer, and they spill MORE gas than the old style cans did with the flexy fill nozzle. PITA. You carrier looks fine Mario. One day I will show you mine - lightweight, simple, strong, etc. Mike

Jeff - just an FYI... Thule's fitment guide shows the Suzuki Vitara 4 dr with factory rack rated at 110 lbs dynamic (moving) with a factory rack system and Thule 50" Cross bars. Our small Columbus tent weighs in at 95 lbs. in the standard fiberglass model. I am certain that this would be a safe...

Steve You pluck and butterfly the day's chukars and flatten them a bit, rub with lemon juice and olive oil, salt heavily and pepper lightly. Let them set for an hour, and put them on a hot grill turn when lightly marked and serve when just done with pan roasted potatoes, steamed asparagus and...

I have burned food in, and scrubbed food out of more damned aluminum cook kits than I can count. It finally dawned on me that cook kits are made to sell to campers, not to actually cook a meal in! Off I went to Costco, and for 149 bucks I bought a full set of regular non-stick cookware. I...

Scott - yes. FZJ80 wheels. Sorry for the confusion. I don't know much about the 100 series. M

Steve - here is the url for the guys who made mine - located in Hollister, CA Did exactly what I wanted, good service, and no problems with the tank after 3 + years. http://www.all-rite.com/customtanks.html Mike

My primary stove is a Camp Chef River Runner - a two burner propane with a lot of horsepower. I boils water by the gallon in minutes, and is aluminium and stainless - just 14 lbs, with legs and wind screen. Awesome stove. I think they discontinued it, since I cannot find a photo on line. I...

Henry: No I don't have a decent picture. It's sandwiched between the frame rails, the bottom of the box, and the skid plate. It is vented with 1/8" silicone tubing that runs from the top of the tank to the top of the wheel well and then curves over to face down. The fill is at the rear of the...

Dan quoted me a price of $118 each for a set a few weeks ago. I believe he orders them from the Toyota Parts Depot. I'd like to have 8 of them, but other priorities come first. M
