I run basically the same heater in my teardrop, minus the housing, and permanently plumbed and mounted. If you look inside, it is a webasto knockoff. What BTU rating did you get? You should be happy, or better yet, the girlfriend/wife will be happy.

I like the tools bag approach. It allows me to stuff them in places unavailable to a box.

I recognize the mountains. That is Trail Ridge Road. Did you go up Fall River Road (dirt) then down the highway? I live within an hour of there.

In rock crawling circles, that is called "roll over red" ;-)

While tools are cool...they are no good if a major part is shot. I carry an extra of every critical sensor, along with belts, coolant, plugs, wires, rotor/cap, etc. We carry spare axles and driveshafts as well since we do VERY extreme trails.

While, in Colorado, you can get a ticket, I have found if you are civil and respectful, you should get by with a warning. If they give you any crap about it being distracting, harass them about the ones they have in their patrol cars, and laugh.

I picked up some used cpap machines that work on 12v directly and they have worked fine. I paid $50 each. As far as the diabetes, check often, drink plenty of water, stay away from sweetened drinks. Remember exertion and adrenaline effect your blood sugars and it varies from person to...

Scofield Pass Colorado (Between Crested Butte and Marble)

I take my grand kids, does that count?

As it turns out, I had a pinion nut back off on my rear Dana 44 after 5 years of hard wheeling, It put things in a strain and exploded trying to climb a 6 foot ledge. It sounded like a grenade going off . We routinely do very extreme stuff and carry tons of spares, including axles and...

On Poison Spyder Moab Utah The chunks kept locking up the rear axle. I ended pulling the axles, and carrier, so I could get the chunks out, then removed the ring gear. I continued the trail in front wheel drive only. When I got off the trail, I had half the tread on the front vs the rear...

I'm in Endicott, NY working. I am going to miss meeting up with you guys. Have a beer on me.

They work wonders in the sand, and they come out bright and shiney.

I have been offroad wheeling for over 50 years all over North America from Mexico to Alaska and have never needed them. I did however use them once in the Sahara Desert. Personally I think the dollars would be better spent elsewhere; maybe a longer tow strap or tire chains. Maybe an extra few...

Grew up on the farm. Chewed Red Tag Tinsley as a kid up to about 16 when my girlfriend objected. My dad did all his life. He died a painful miserable death from stomach cancer because of it.

Where did you find the J-hook bracket?

I have hiked and backpacked well over a thousand miles in the Rockies in my lifetime, but now I have worn out my body and after 16 orthopedic surgeries, I can no longer do that. I am getting a double knee replacement this summer and hopefully I can hike more. The Jeep gets me close, but that...

Nice looking XJ. I too was southern raised (west Texas) now live in Colorado.
