To bad the last section of the highway from Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk isn't officially opened until November, would be cool to do that stretch if you are all the way up there.

Have you tried grounding the LED driver directly to a frame ground or a ferrite bead on the power line to see if it helps. Might be a cheap fix.

Thanks, should be perfect for me and the wife then.

Leading a hike on the West Coast Trail on Vancouver Island next week with a group from my unit, planning on a 6 day trip. I've had to re-evaluate how I pack compared to how my rucksack is normally loaded. The ruck alone weighs 8 1.2 lbs without the reinforcement bars. I dug out my old...

Honestly, the jeep will likely take you almost anywhere you want to go as is, and with a good set of tires, even farther. Take it out a few times with someone who knows what they are doing and see if you need anything to do what you want. Meet up with other jeep guys/clubs and see what they...

It has been on my list for a while to do the drive up the Dempster, but the extra drive into Tuk will make this perfect. Glad to see it is almost done. http://www.cbc.ca/news/multimedia/driving-to-the-top-of-the-world-exploring-canada-s-new-arctic-highway-1.4073615

They mostly do fj and jeep stuff, but maybe they do other kits as well http://store-springtailsolutions-com.3dcartstores.com/

I'm not sure how the power is broken down on the Disco, but the FJ has a 40% front/60% rear split. Mine came with an e-locker in the rear and A-trac up front, I would say that makes more sense because of the power split. maybe doesn't matter as much if you have a 50/50 split though, although I...

Will there be pictures? Then yes! No pictures? then...no.

nm, found what I was looking for

I needed it to make it all the way across the Trans -Labrador highway. There was a couple times when the distance between gas stations was a bit to much for the FJs fuel range, especially loaded down like a Gypsy caravan. Other than that, have never really "needed" it. More like insurance on...

Grizzlies are different. Some hunters I know had the camper torn off their truck by a grizzly who was after their moose. Definitely take full bear precautions in grizzly country.

Got in on the sale at Springtail, so ordered this up and installed last night. Pretty happy with the setup, just need to figure out how I'm gonna mount everything.

You guys make me feel like I need more recovery gear. I have a winch, shovel, and a hi-lift. 1 tree-saver, a pulley that came with the winch, and a 30' tow strap. I guess it depends how often you get stuck, how often you wheel with others( can share gear, less load on the rig) That Bubba rope...

Nice, Just moved here to central Canada. I used to go to the annual FJ Northeaster meet in Rausch Creek, PA every spring. Hoping this can be my new annual run south.

Alaskan Mosquito repellent?

Springtail was having a sale, so I ended up ordering on of the folding rear door molle pack kits.

I have 16+ years in the Candian Army, we use a 3bag system similar to the US version. I can tell you one of the biggest mistakes people make is wearing to much clothing in their sleeping bags. During Winter Warfare training we actually recommend sleeping commando. If you can't do that, minimal...

Hosted by Dakota Territory Cruisers. Anyone else going? Just registered. Looks like a nice area.

I would argue against upgrading the springs and shocks if you aren't gonna lift it right away. Just a waste of money if you decide to lift it a year down the road. The TRD should be fine until you figure out what you want to do. These trucks are very versatile out of the box. The Taco Is similar...
