    WTB Rotopax gas/water

    Check eBay. You can find used units sometimes at reasonable prices. I bought a 2G water recently.

    Need some help/advice.

    Consider fabbing some drop brackets on the awning so it sits lower on your rack. What roof rack and what mounting brackets do you have?

    KM3 max speed

    Ya. The only DOT tire I am aware of (besides golf carts, etc) are old school donut tires. The KM3 came in several flavors. This is for the E rated sidewall (means it is stiffer and thus, a firmer, harder ride) which according to BFG, is the only sidewall currently available in the US market...

    Amarillo

    I'm in Lubbock. We are spread around between Amarillo, Midland, Lubbock. I am having an overland gathering in mid October at my wife's brewery. OB, West Texas Flatlanders, Rigs and Coffee groups and Texas Tactical Jeeps will get invites. Probably on a Saturday. Not sure of the date yet as I am...

    2015 JKU rubicon?

    Remember, people dont get on the internet to tell you how average and problem free their rigs are. You are only reading troubleshooting issues and stories of he said/she said. 2007-2011 was the 3.8L engine that is notoriously underpowered, but reasonably reliable. That motor is in countless...

    Rim Rocker Trail

    I posted it knowing it was free. I think the paid trail maps are embedded not to work without a member key, which is embedded... or so I was told.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Fabbed a plate and spacers to mount my Rotopax units to my spare tire. Turned out well. Waiting on the spacers later today so I can fit it properly. Bought an elbow to add to my 67Designs phone and tablet mounts so my tablet faces me better. Ordered last Thursday from Dallas (6 hour drive from...

    Overland Fire Suppression Gear

    Same. Chainsaw depending on length of time and places I go. Cabin in NM I use my chainsaw nearly every time. The 9 mile trail to our cabin cuts across a large working cattle and sheep ranch but the trail is mine to maintain. An agreement with the woman who owns the property. Shovel Ax 2 2lb...

    (Need assistance) Connecticut to Washington (and back)

    First, congrats on a being a stand up single dad. I've been there. My daughter who is now 16 and I have an amazing relationship and we have traveled by Jeep all over. As for travel, I think its a safe bet Canada is going to be tough to get into for some time. As much as I love Montreal...

    Rim Rocker Trail

    With the early snow yesterday and the Farmers Almanac calling for a cold and snowy winter, its a crap shoot. But as others have said, there are plenty of places to get off the trail and back on asphalt if snow does become an issue. I will be there the first week of Oct and am really not...

    Sleeping in my rig

    DeepSleep makes a fitted air mattress for JKU/JLU's and over window screens similar to above but made for Jeep windows. As for door and topless? Elevation is your friend.

    Jeep JL Rotopax "Caddie"

    I like the two post version vs the single bolt version already on the market.

    I want to hook up a solar panel

    To reduce space usage (though mounting to a hardtop RTT is brilliant) a tray design that slides out from under the roof rack is a great space saver. I've seen side mounts but with this pic, you get the idea:

    Skyjacker Shocks

    Ya. unfortunately they are both proven not to be great quality. Contact someone at Northridge4x4 on their Chat system. Tell them what you have and ask them for a recommendation. Knowledgeable people may point you in a better direction.

    Imogene Pass, CO closed by USFS for "failing bridges"

    Looks like there were no accidents or injuries, but I am guessing something failed after all the rain and didn't pass inspection. Looks to reopen by mid next week...

    Northridge 4X4 Kinda Sucks

    No local offroad shops within 2 hours of me. Hence Amazon.

    Hot Springs hop in New Mexico

    Not saying I'm right, but based on my experience, its a non issue. Now if you are a nurse who travels to Texas and returns and tells your coworkers "I was in Texas yesterday", ya, you're probably gonna catch a lot of flak and someone may tell you to quarantine. In reality, everyone I came across...

    Northridge 4X4 Kinda Sucks

    Northridge has always been good to me. If its in stock, it says it right on the page. Cant blame Northridge for a vendor who gives them a date and then punts, again and again. Plus ARB is Australian. Who trusts Aussies??? lol. My beef with Northridge is the amount of money I ahve spent there...
