    Usal Beach Team Hunt Rally - 07/28/2017

    Yeah, I have a couple you can use. They're telescoping ones from REI. Going to be using the OzTent and it comes with poles for the awning so I won't need to use the REI ones.

    Usal Beach Team Hunt Rally - 07/28/2017

    Sounds good. I'm going to have Mike pick the camp site. It will probably be in the trees so there's more shade for Hunt. There will be at least 4 trucks there in the afternoon so just look for the big group.

    Usal Beach Team Hunt Rally - 07/28/2017

    Please note, there is a $15.00 overnight camp fee for Usal Beach (Friday). We will pay the Usal fee at the Sinkyone Ranger Station Saturday afternoon. The one at the beach gets vandalized too often. It's $8.00 to camp overnight (Saturday) at Nadelos or Wailaki. There are too many rigs to stay in...

    Oztent Owners, How do you transport?

    My RV-5 is arriving on Monday, but I've used my buddy's on a few trips. It gets strapped to the Safety Devices rack on my Discovery 2. The rack is long enough to fit the tent straight. I'll snap a pic when it's loaded for the trip home and post it for ya.

    Synthetic winch cable vs Steel

    You don't have to worry about cold temps and Dyneema. It actually gets a little stronger (by 5-10%) at temps of -50*C (-58*F). Samson has published test results on their site that show their results. They concluded safe operating temps can be at least as low as -125*C (-193*F). Heat however...

    3D printed gear / goodies?

    I had my buddy print a center console switch cover, and clips to hold the hood liner in place.

    Diy awning

    Looks like a good start. Lots of area to fit a lot of people. Are the uprights telescoping? For rain you usually want to have a low side so the water can run off and not pool, weighing down the canvas. Or you could place a pole in the center and get a peaked roof. I'm 6'4" and appreciate lots of...

    OB Approved Warn XD9000i Winch Solenoid Replacement

    One of the great things about Warn winches is their serviceability. When I first got my XD9000i it wouldn't go into freespool. The entire planetary gear assembly was removed, cleaned and got a fresh coating of grease and hasn't had an issue in over 7 years of ownership. Late last Fall there...
