I want to put in a word about how to dress for bed when it is cooold. Like most of us I grew up with dress warm and then get in the sleeping bag. This changed for me in the 90's when my son joined the Army. There they taught him to undress, throw the clothes in the bag and climb in. The...

Take one or more of the large 48oz Nalgene bottles and fill it with heated water for in the sleeping bag with you. You can also use large pill bottles full of hot water in your coat pockets. Little thing on sleeping bags; if the bag is rated for lets say 40°F, it means you shouldn't die if it...

This is the second steering rack failure of this type I have heard of. Good on ya for the recovery!

Hi, just found this thread. Interesting build for sure. I'm not a fan of RTT's either! From the rear it reminds me of a mini-unimog. Do you have a curb weight for after the conversion?

I made it out by Eureka, NV, had around 4 min of annularity with clear skies for the event. I wrote it up in my blog; Annular Eclipse Trip

Hi Laurie, Welcome to the forum. Your not my cousin are you? Parents are P & P?

I saw that yesterday, nice! For yeeaarrss, I've wanted a poptop such as the Alucab for my 109 and not a Dormobile. Thinking of making my own. I actually think an Alucab could fit with some sort of spacer over the windscreen, $$$ gets in the way of trying it out.

I made my roofrack out of superstrut and gutter mounts as low as I could make it. I had a RTT on it for a year or 2 until I decided getting up and down to open/close it was too much for me. here are some build threads from my blog...

My Land Rover is 58".....

I'd have to go against the norm and say no, with some qualifiers. If you want to go and travel like Life Style Overland or TrailRecon, Yes the initial investment is high. If you want to travel like SUV RVing not so much. I rode a bicycle down the Pacific Coast and a mountain bike down the Great...

Oh yeah, that's where it is on 5 door 109's too. Nice looking 110!

Bjoern, Looks good, very similar to the 109's(5 door) rear tank access. Where is the filler? Did I miss that? I put a second tank under the left seat and a filler for it on my 109 regular(3 door). I want to put in a rear tank also. The filler might have to go through one of the side lock boxes...
