    What tires do you like? (Merged Thread)

    Just put these on yesterday. Downgraded from the KM2; not much need for MT type tires. In the short distance I have driven since putting them on notice how much quieter thay are.

    Location Banner

    @Michael and @Corrie has the idea of adding a persons' location to their profile picture in the forums ever been brought up. As I click through the threads and see ideas for trips it hard to identify if the location is close to where I am at. I am not thinking we add addresses, but maybe states...

    Overland Cooler Size

    Another big determiner for coolers, is the weather at the location you are going. This will determine your ice needs. For an inexpensive fridge option look at truckfridge.com The TF51 is a great price! There is a group buy listed on tacomaworld currently that offers an additional 25% off the...

    Best Trail Repairs

    Replace a front coilover when the top of the shock that keeps the coil captured broke. It required multiple ratchet straps, a slightly large human in the form of @1Louder and some inginuity.

    Bf Goodrich AT/ K02's or Goodyear Duratracks

    Personally, I have used both. I really guess it depends on where you live and the conditions you plan to use then in. I know for Arizona the Duratracs are garbage. I had a set that only lasted 18 months. The dry climate and desert conditions destroyed them. If driving in snow, the Duratracs are...

    What Trail Condition Do You Fear The Most?

    I will say it it a combination of "snot-slick" mud in an off-camber situation on a shelf road. While running the Utah BDR in 2015 the group ran into this situation. The mud was created from snow melt. The logging roads are cut to drain the water off of the hill. There was about a 5 mile section...

    Hi-Lift Jack

    I think this is the key to safe hi-lift use! If you are using the hi-lift the first time to fix something, your brain is already in "fix it now" mode. This just increases the ability you will injure yourself.
