    Portable Toilet

    yetteldorf Great question--I attended a OB gathering a few years back, and the group was asked while we were sitting around a campfire, what we disliked the most about Over-landing-general question. I remarked finding gobs of toilet paper, wadded up or blowing around and waster piles just...

    Portable Toilet

    I used to use the Standard Port-a-Potty, but it was large/bulky etc Here is the system I use now. The picture on the top is the unit, the bags are the picture below it. I think I purchased it on Amazon. Bags are actually two bags in one-the inner bag has the decomposing/deodorant stuff. Easy...

    Jeep Jk Fridge.

    I have a JKU 2015. Not sure the amount of space you are planning to set aside for the refrigerator. I purchased a SnoMaster 56L Refrig/Freezer, usually just use it as a refrig. I mounted it on plywood, used a 26" full extension drawer slide, which fits nicely in the JKU, the extension really...

    Portable battery box / parts list pricing

    Good Questions- The DC/DC charger is mounted directly above the inverter/below the Rover charger. I mounted these on a little angle hopefully to allow heat to raise off the back on the unit. I also do not store anything behind the battery box unit itself allowing improved air circulation...

    Opinions on Tepui roof top tents?

    You can't go wrong with a Tepui Tent. I've had my Ayer sky since 2017-use it about 30-40 times a year. The Zipper Gimp is awesome, not just because you can change tent tops, but if there ever was an issue with the tent tearing, you simply unzip and replace the top canvas portion of the tent...

    Hi-Lift Jack Rebuild...

    Great Reminder--maintenance on the old Hi-lift jack most of the time is over looked. I grease mine and about three times a year, make sure things will work when needed. I'm on the coast and travel down the beach often--the rust potential is crazy on metal---even if it is painted. Great...
