First big empty suitcase to land in Sydney wins a prize! http://www.bushwinch.com.au/

I am going through the front end of my 99 Taco to tighten things up and I'm looking for a supplier that cares about OEM quality parts. My research has led me to look for the 555 stamp on tie rod ends and ball joints, which is easier said than done online. I'm nowhere near a big city, and I'd...

Greetings! With a degree of reluctance, I've decided to sell the car that I know I'll miss. I've written a long CL ad with details, so here it is: http://westslope.craigslist.org/cto/5068742020.html I'll update the price in the ad if it drops and shave 750 off for expo members. I'm happy to...

I hope to see a double cab tundra in my near future and I'd like some input on a few issues I've seen in used trucks available to me. Motivating this thread is an 04 for sale 200 yards from my house with "transmission problems." Mechanics are sparse here and according to the seller; "I just...

First, apologies if this horse has been kicked - no luck searching. I found other discussions on this elsewhere, but they often devolve. I'd like to charge a 12v battery from a small solar system with (2) 12v deep cycles in series. System details HERE. I got THIS as a gift, and it's been...

I'm trying to sort out the most craptastic toilet for a unique purpose. More tiny house than overland, but I'd appreciate your thoughts if you've enjoyed your dump... twice. We're building a guest house of sorts within 300' of a flush toilet and septic system. It's not feasible to tie into this...

I usually run with a topper on my 99 taco, and the tops of my bed rails have rusted where the vibration friction from the gasket rubbed off the paint. So I'm going to sand them down and repaint, but I'd like to cover them to prevent this from happening again. Anyone have experience with products...

Well, it finally happened to me too. My 04 450 EXC kick stand failed. Recently, leaning it on the stand to oil the chain, the bolt snapped. So now I'm officially looking for a better kick stand. I think I should be able to bolt on a Pro Moto Billet or Trail Tech as a lot of others have after...

I tend to ignore new trends until the bugs get worked out, but the fat bug finally bit me this weekend. A good friend who I ride with a lot just picked up a barely used mukluk and we swapped a few times on a favorite local ride (from my Trek Remedy). My first thought was " hmm it sure has a...

ARB sent me their service manual as a .pdf and it's full of great info. Download it HERE. With this, you can ... Calibrate your thermometer! Understand what the rhythm of your check light blinks, and know just enough about the guts to break something. Cheers, Fletch

So I'm super pumped to have a new arb fridge and props to Cruiseryard for getting it to me lickity split! The one thing I didn't think about in my endless research is how bright the display would be. I guess the newer bluish screens are easier to read in the sun, but they sure throw some light...

Cleaning out my grandfather's shop last weekend, I found a nice little 1/4" die grinder - a Packard 210, made in Glendale, CA. With a puma OBA set up, I thought I'd throw it in the truck with some cut off wheels. I often find myself off the grid with projects in hand, but I don't have much...

I'd like to make sure I can lift the basket out of an ARB fridge in my back seat in the limited height i have planned. If you have this fridge, I'd love a measurement of the total height of the basket and fridge without lid combined. Thanks a ton!

Can anyone speak to the availability of products for sale at Expo West? I'd like to fit an ARB 50 qt in my back seat before ordering one, and ideally drive away with it if it fits. Hope to try an engel too. Cheers, Fletch

I have a new favorite camp meal to share and I couldn't find a thread of such staples, so post them here! Criteria: - Fresher the better, without too many ingredients that your 6 year old can't pronounce. (Keep your spam in the bomb shelter where it belongs) - Quick prep, easy clean up...

I'm on a mission to streamline my photo/video library. I've organized my photos in sub-folders by year for over a decade now, and it'd like to improve my access to this library. Setting up my new business laptop got me doing some research, but there are so many options that I'd thought I'd...

Looks like there's a new cooler maker on the block and no discussion of them yet. http://www.iconcoolers.com/ Anyone seen these in person? Price is tempting, but where do you think they were able to cut a few corners? Their FAQ doesn't touch on a few questions I have, so I've sent them an...

2014 shall be the year of improving my recovery kit. I just ordered a synthetic line to replace the 5/16 cable on my Warn M8000 (on my 99 taco). The cable is slightly damaged in the first 20' (coils like a phone cord with 1 or 2 broken strands) so I'd like to cut that section off and pack it...

Dinkin around with some timelapse shots of the stars rotating above Eastern Utah this weekend, I got to thinking that it sure would be nice if I could plug my camera into my truck and let it run all night. Canon's AC adapters certainly make this possible, but running an inverter to step from...
