We were visiting with some guys from Veteran Overland at a recent rally, and they had a shirt with "Hunt the Good Stuff" on it, a simple reminder that while you are busy embracing the suck, find something good about the situation no matter how small, and your day just got a little bit better...
Saw the Armadillo Fuel Bags Armadillo Bag – RUGGED, EXPEDITION-READY LIQUID POWER RESERVOIR being hawked at the PNW Expo, and now they seem to be all the rage with the YouTubers. Thought to myself, this actually might be a cool piece of gear for my situation where I do not have much space on...
We have always planned on moving to Montana, but in the past few years the three big cities have swung the pendulum farther and farther away from my views, and as has happened in WA a few big cities/counties can control the whole state, Idaho, Wyoming, and South Dakota are looking better to...
On our Grand Cherokee we use a slide in box with one large drawer and an Engel 30qt drawer fridge (currently the drawer holds tools and recovery, working on building a rear seat delete with storage and moving those there, then the drawer becomes food/kitchen storage. The box uses stock anchor...
My switchpro is also connected direct, it does have ignitiion sense so I can program each switch to work with key on or always as I wish. Radios and interior lighting have a long time delay so I can use them with key off, but will turn off eventually if I forget in my old age. On the ram, I...
I do not like to mess with factory wiring, I have installed a switch pro system and a winch which operate directly off the factory battery, Everything in the cockpit and accessories used while driving all run through the switch pro, disconnect one wire and its all isolated, same with the...
Don't you alread have that factory 'second' battery inside the front wheel well, the one that does the auto stop/start feature? will that battery start the truck if the main battery is dead?
Careful, if word gets out you have "extra" space, the overlanding machine will invent a new gadget you did not know you needed, but can't live without, give it a fancy overlanding name and take convenient monthly payments for it... aka the "Tri-Peak semi automatic donut dispenser for...
The yellow and black look all official like on the push bar:) I had the emblem that came with the membership for a long time because I was not sure what rig to put it on as we have three in the driveway, finally gave up and ordered six more so we can have a pair on each, and yes the odd one...
We also premix our drinks (usually long island tea or limoncello lemonaide) into large plastic juice bottles, then we just pour and add mixer disposing of the bottle when empty. Stashing a ziplock back of ice in the bottom of the fridge against the cooling plate keeps them frozen (we do not...
Well, called RedArc customer service in Australia, had a great conversation with Andrew from their support team, and he said he would reach out to the US distribution center and see if they can round up some parts, a few minutes later @REDARC_Ryan was calling me and has the parts he can take...
No argument here, I just want to exhange my hard earned $$ for some quality merchandise. I have given up on anyone in a retail chain store being able to provide any help beyond reading what is on the back of the box. I see help wanted signs all over, and have freinds with business offering...
Like many others we use the ARB kit in all our vehicles both overlanding and regular street, Like the way everything is pretty much included and of good quality. we do add colby stems to the mix and a can of tire sealant along with a better jack and a jack base for soft ground. I second...
Been running Ko2 for years, have almost 50k on the current set on my WJ, still have plenty of tread left to be legal, but ready to be replaced for off road reliability. I always get load range E tires on my rigs for the extra plys, never had a flat (knocking on wood currently) with any of...
Agree 100%, Amazon has infiltrated, undercut, and put a lot of legit companies out of business, now they have a monopoly on being able to get anything (Just try to find anything but basic hardware at a local store anymore and good luck finding any auto electric supplies) So now they can sell...
Another issue was a ridge at the bottom of the holes so the fitting would bottom out just before it got to the sweet spot where it sealed properly, so hard to get any quality parts anymore, will be doing some more research so I can replace it with something better should it fail. Just has to...
