Will be following along, as I built a scratch offroad trailer with a Mighty Max bed (though use it for hauling stuff mostly), but haven't gotten around to making it into anything useful for camping/overlanding yet and was just recently considering some options.
Here's a build thread from when...
I like taking a shower in the morning. A morning without a shower first thing (and a coffee) is a lousy morning, in general. Usually I'll just spray my hair or something, but time to go the whole way and get a shower enclosure. Got this OVS one for a reasonable price (with a coupon) and it came...
Got the welder and some scrap metal out today to beef up the gas tank skid once again, this time on the sides and the mount brackets, the areas that bent on the last trip. Eventually I'll just buy some 1/8" sheet and make an actual nice one, but for the time being patching together with more...
I know there are some "toughbook" style tablets (SxS and stuf like that) built for the hardcore overlanders, but I'm looking for something just for our weekend trail runs on the rare occasion my buddy isn't there with all his mapping gear to lead the group. Since I won't use it much don't really...
Let's have a camping weekend. Friday afternoon I headed up through West Va. into southern PA to meet up with some of the camping/wheeling group for a couple days. The meetup for the first night of camping was in Buchanon State Forest, up on a mountain in a Primitive site that took some driving...
Packing up for a couple days camping and wheeling this weekend. Always a bit of Tetris in this little thing, especially when I'm brining the ARB room, chainsaw, kitchen, and full toolkit with me
Since I have a tendency to not be able to find my lighting at night, figured I'd make a...
Mini project. SInce I added the wheel spacers, this thing gets really, really dirty when we're in muddy areas (and it always seems to rain when we go wheeling/camping). Now yeah, it looks cool all muddy and stuff, but I especially dislike having mud flinging into the open windows and on my...
I have the halfgen, so basically half of the Genesis. Seems to work fine, though the igniter is a bit wonky and I had to bend it to get a good spark. I like how it stows up compact and is an easy setup, so I use it when I need to boil some water (fast) for coffee, mostly. I still carry a cheapo...
That's the Raider in the profile pic lol...just dirty :) You on GRM then? My Raider thread here is a carbon-copy of the one over there, I update both at the same time. I used to have a couple threads on ExPo but it runs so slow these days I kind of stopped updating those and moved here.
Not that much of my stuff applies, since yours is a 4-door with more room for stuff, but I have a build thread (right above yours at the moment) that documents my "from scratch" setup that's mostly DIY stuff / on a budgets. Some of it may be of use - and some of it is good ideas I stole from...
I have the 7-gallon Yakima Road Shower on the Sequoia, which has been very useful for camping, racing, and cleaning up messy kids. My plan had been to swap it onto the Raider for camping, but after some checking it's just too big to really fit on the rack easily - plus it's overkill in terms of...
Yeah, that's what I 'm thinking as well. Though after putting it on the Raider, it's probably too big for my weekend camping trips, so I switched the smaller Pelican boxes off the Sequoia onto the Raider today and will probably use it on the bigger truck for family trips only (and will build a...
Not specific to a particular vehicle, but I'll probably use it on both the Raider and the Sequoia depending on the trip. Anyhow, tonight I picked up a secondhand Hardigg Case off marketplace for a couple of Jacksons. Not bad, since it's probably military surplus and I'm sure DoD paid like $800...
