This wheel base thing is a really good tip. I've always womdered why some trailers tow good and others are like swinging boat anchors. This really make sense ! Thanks for that tip @Road

Trailer security is always something we must consider. I wouldn't let it bother me there are too many different ways to solve that problem.

Swival mount might do the trick similar to @grubworm trailer. Mounting horizontal might do it too. I bought scissor jacks but decided not to install them for the same reason. Now I will just store them and use them when I set up camp as free standing jacks.

@old_man is a genius IMO !

To me the nicest thing about your rig is that you have plenty of room to haul whatever you need when and where you might need it. Not to mention that it is just plain cool.

It weighs nothing, cost nothing, as well as being a good sound barrier. I use it in my frig (house testing) as well to separate the freezing area from the frig area. As you know I haven't been on the road with any of my newest equipment in the past 28 months. So I can't verify how my kooky ideas...

Overlanding as a word is hard to define. It can and will be used to describe many different activities by each group. This group of overlanders belong to the organization of "Overland Bound". To me that means I'm going somewhere and everywhere and by whatever mode of transportation I choose...

I've been saving up all my rigid 1" packing foam to use in the same manner inside my 3 Plano boxes to soften the sound of objects knocking around.

The love smile to your post is because you drive a Discovery now. They are so underrated by a lot of overlanders. I love mine, especially because I have mildly improved on its ability to go places that would normally damage a stock vehicle.

No offense here. My experiences came from the 30's and 40's error when all my travels were related to war time travel in a 1936 4 door Chevrolet, camping by the side of the road. By the 50's-60's we were sophisticated enough to move up in style to a station wagon with a tent, fishing poles and a...

M, the core values are what brought me here. The principles are sound, fair minded, reasonable and inclusive. I know I dont fit in well with some of the forum threads because of differences of opinion. Others, I fit very nicely and I have found my niches. The people in any group are the assets...

Nice build.

Okay, we are glad to have you near us.

Any of our bigger city's will have great facilities that handle what your asking for. I wouldn't worry we are not third world.

Maybe, but it looks to be trail capable. It should follow him anywhere he wants to go on those bad ass trails.

Job well done and Thanks for all the great pictures.

As they should IMO ! Anything more is a police state.

Better yet stay out of States with idiot laws. I dont need them and they aren't going to get any of my travel money.

Outrageous thought IMO !

You just never know until you use your rig and realize where to put everything. I need sleeping space so my needs are different but the same at some point.
