    High engine temperature is likely caused by the low oil pressure, since oil needs to be able to move around the engine in order to help keep it cool. First thing to try might be to change the oil filter, hopefully the existing one is just gunked up or clogged or something. Any auto parts store...

    @covello: Any 2" tow strap should do fine.

    You'll definitely be fine as long as your clutch stays functioning! If you can, maybe consider bringing a tow strap as insurance, just in case the clutch goes out. I have two snatch straps in my rig that we can use if needed but they are not the best for towing.

    What vehicle are you driving? My guess is that you will have no problems on any trails we go on. We can spot you as needed for any parts that you feel are intimidating. I don't think the plan is to go down trails that anybody will be uncomfortable on, main goal is to meet people and have fun...

    Plow Disc Cooking

    ah, yeah, i wondered if you meant single burner propane or single burner butane. i wonder if one of those pizza holders they put on the table at a pizza place to hold it above the drinks and such would be high enough? Might not be stable enough, though

    A standard wok ring/wok rack might do the trick assuming it fits over the stove in a suitable way Here's one on amazon for $7. Top diameter is 8 1/4", bottom diameter is 9 7/8": B00125P91C

    Arizona Overlanders

    I feel like I keep throwing links at you, but here's another one to join. There is a Meetup group called AZ Overlanders (https://www.meetup.com/AZ-Overlanders/) which is separate from Overland Bound, but many of the members are also Overland Bound members. We try to have a meetup once a month...
