    OB Approved Camping with Firearms

    You can be sued for wearing a blue shirt, it doesn't mean the plaintiff will get a judgement. Unless a person is of a protected class and you can show discrimination based on that class, I highly doubt a court will side with the person turned away.

    Most the trash in my Trasharoo is stuff I've picked up along the way.

    I when someone calls my Nissan a Toyota, I usually call his Jeep a Samurai.

    Ozark Trail coolers

    Yep, I figured I would ask around to see if anyone had any experience before taking the plunge. I was in need of cold food storage at the time, but couldn't justify the cost of a fridge. I didn't want to fall into the trap of false economy if it wouldn't do the job. If it was a junky cooler I...

    Ozark Trail coolers

    Yes, to meet the bear rating you have to lock it. The rubber latches are not enough on their own. A heavy duty spring clip from the hardware store should also work if it has a good load rating.

    Overland Bound Roof Top Tent Giveaway Details

    So when is the winner announced? I was optimistic for a minute, then I remembered that I don't win anything in raffles. I think in my whole life I won a cheap wiring kit toy thing and a hat. Only about 25 years apart.

    Question for fellow OB Nissan 2nd Gen Xterra Owners - Rear suspension bottoming out FIX?

    If you stick with stock, you will still bottom. There just isn't enough upward travel between the axle and the stops. I daily mine and it runs fine on the road. A 2-3" lift will solve the problem and not drastically affect road manners. Sent via Pony Express and Carrier Pigeon.

    Question for fellow OB Nissan 2nd Gen Xterra Owners - Rear suspension bottoming out FIX?

    5" of lift in the back (was shooting for 3", but due to a bushing miscalculation I ended up with longer shackles), 285/75/16 tires. Sent via Pony Express and Carrier Pigeon.

    Question for fellow OB Nissan 2nd Gen Xterra Owners - Rear suspension bottoming out FIX?

    I did an AAL, but it only lasted 2 years. I then had Alcans with long travel Bilstein shocks. I can now jump the rig over cattle guards while fully loaded with camping gear and not bottom.

    I guess it's a Jeep Thing® because I don't understand.

    Spare Tire Fluids Serpentine Belt Everything else is a complete bodge job/field repair. Baling wire, JB weld, hose clamps, etc. Then just keep up on maintenance and get a pre-trip inspection; travel with friends and/or have good communications gear (especially some that doesn't rely on the...

    Too simple to sleep in my 5th Gen 4Runner?

    Put a rock down in front of the low wheels and crawl up on it for the night. Sent from my Nexus 6 using OB Talk mobile app

    Too simple to sleep in my 5th Gen 4Runner?

    I sleep in the back of the Xterra regularly. I just keep my gear in plastic crates so it isn't bothered by weather when it is outside. Sent from my Nexus 6 using OB Talk mobile app

    OB Approved Camping with Firearms

    I'm pretty sure you can refuse service to anyone as long as it isn't because they are part of a protected class. I used to moonlight at a gun store and the owner would refuse to sell a gun if he got a bad vibe off the person. No other reason needed. Sent from my Nexus 6 using OB Talk mobile app

    What is your perfect vehicle for you

    FJ-80 import with a diesel engine and factory lockers. Preferably one with low miles that has been babied since it was delivered.
