    Looking for Tips for Death Valley Steel pass, Dedeckera Canyon

    I've been through there with 8" clearance at the diffs a few years back. I have heard on the Saline Valley forum, Saline Preservation Association , that last winter/spring storms changed it and it is more difficult now, as is the sand by Eureka Dunes. I know nothing about the capabilities of a...

    Coleman stove issue----fixed!

    I have an old Coleman 2 burner stove and a Stanley cookset. The cookset doesn't sit good on the wide grill slots. I fixed it by using bicycle spokes to cross hatch the gap. It's all on my blog; https://poppageno.blogspot.com/2021/...grill-fix.html

    Rockhounding / gold panning /metal detecting

    Shaun living where you do gives you lots of options for rock and gem hunting. Youtube has several rockhunting videos in Nevada. I've not looked for Oregon videos as I go to NV. I have plenty of rocks(not just in my head) from my travels and I take my metal detector and find lots of scrap nails...

    Propane conversion kit for Coleman white gas stove

    I duuno, 2 things though, if you are not getting proper flame something is plugged up or worn out. It takes pressure to get the right flame. The other thing is I took a propane stove (2 burner) and swapped it for the 2 burner in my Coleman white gas stove. How I did that is in my blog; white...

    Minimum clearance

    I was going to suggest a Sherp. The reality is as others have asked, what is your definition of anywhere? The Sherp comes the closest to fitting the bill. An aluminum bodied 109" Land Rover with a LS engine and a autobox sitting on 8" -35's on Portal axles, fully locked, diesel if you want...

    Swiss-Link Boxes/ Storage Cases

    I use a couple of small Action Packers for my pantry and bath. They don't need to be weatherproof. Had them since the 80's. I use a medium Action Packer to take used lumber for firewood at camp. I find that care must be taken when buying cases. Mainly for size and what you will pack in them. For...

    US Rocky Mountain Advice for an Australian couple visiting the USA

    Alan, I must confess to having watched more than a few of ASPW's videos, from before he moved to OZ. I agree he has a big budget. I think the Troopy is a great vehicle too. Defender not so much, that's why I stuck with a Series 2. I wish Alu-cab made a top for the 109. I remember looking at...

    What to take when off the road?

    I just watched this fellow from Japan(?) 's video. Amazed at what he carries. He seemed to have all the niceties, although compact. Bigger isn't always better. What the heck did he sleep with over his eyes? I kept waiting for him to pull out a sandwich bag for a toilet.

    Learning to wrench for field repairs and DIY installs

    So turn back the Wayback Machine to simpler times Sherman, Jan 1974. I bought my first car at age 22, grew up in a house with no car, now my life was finally starting. I drove my 1973 Land Rover 30 miles home from the dealer and got up the next morning only to find a huge oil puddle under it...

    Best vehicle for my needs

    Maybe I am wrong , but I think ATV trails are limited to vehicles 50" wide or less. That eliminates most vehicles including some UTV's. https://staythetrail.org/vehicle-width/ https://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/stelprdb5437261.pdf My Land Rover is 58" wide. Yotas are wider.
