    Ontario, Canada: out for a wander

    I'll have a look. its looking like pickings are slim right now and I am tempted to try to squeeze on a set of 245/65R17s but I'm not 100% they will fit. I know that 235/65R17 will fit but there aren't many options for that size. I need to find somebody with a new cherokee trailhawk to let me...

    Those pics are from Baja ; ) Chris (Ujoint) does a lot of RVs that are primarily used on the east coast beaches. A big plus to having the 4x4 conversion, besides the ground clearance, is using low range to help on ascents and descents. We think the 4x4 rvs are very cool and we'll probably have...

    It's Time To Leave

    We are a family of 3, our son has autism, so we want him to have some room to live. Plus we need some space for "alone" time. The Class C will give us all of that. Yeah, I am cool with not going "Everywhere" just where we want. The lift will give us a little extra clearance for fire roads etc...

    The Ujoint system is very capable. While being 28-32ft will limit some of the places you'll be able to go, the comfort when you are at places will be enviable. The common advice for rig selection is: "get the largest you're comfortable driving and the smallest you're comfortable living in." It...

    Ontario, Canada: out for a wander

    I has been eating sway bar links. Other than that nothing really bad. Its been used pretty light up till now ( warranty is up now, and it hasn't been off road till now because I haven't had the time to look for any spots) and its on its 3rd set of sway bar links with 50k km on it. Its got a...

    Ontario, Canada: out for a wander

    Thank you! This was one of the more challenging trails I have had it through. It had a few issues but nothing that better tire placement couldn't fix.

    We are driving around the world. Right now.

    That's a tricky question. I try to keep our weight at or under the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of our van (which is 9,500). We have seen and heard of broken frames on many of the smaller trucks but also know of an F250 that cracked its frame twice. The best advice is to do the best you...

    Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail

    Funny that you mention that... Been looking at my abysmal gas mileage and thinking it must be all the added farkles and larger tire size. At the same time I have been using a Tazer to adjust tire size and continually bumping the size up because my speedo continues to register a slower speed. The...

    Yes. Manually calculating fuel economy is too depressing in this day and age.

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Pretty much, with some slight differences. Like getting a front winch bumper. The ranger one would require modding the grill area to fit the explorer. I've basically had to fab or have everything custom built. ..but that's the reason I did it. Much more fun if you like to tinker rather than...
