  • Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance August 4th and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

    Dometic CFX65 DZ fridge/freezer

    So everything else being equal (tongue in cheek) the bigger/longer cooling coils and thicker insulation should put the snowmaster above the next competitor. For us that live in the desert, where higher heat temps are encountered, the snowmaster makes better sense. That of course is if money is...

    Best Trail Tire from BFG?

    I never heard of them. Must do research. Driving a heavy diesel, and before a 3/4 ton gasser I have never gotten to 50,000 miles. 46,000 was my absolute best, by religiously rotating them. These were BFG KM2 all terrains. I'm trying TOYO AT2 now and see if I can reach that mileage gareentee...

    X-Bull Recovery Tracks...another inexpensive alternative

    With carriage bolts, add the Hi-lyft "keyed" locking wing nuts. See if you can get 2 sets keyed the same for convenience. Add your bicycle cable lock for more security. Making those slotted aluminum rails is very cool. It allows so much mounting options for other gear also. My only question is...

    Colorado road updates due to severe winter

    I clicked LOVE, because I Live in the LAS VEGAS area, and we need Colorado snow-pack run-off desperately in Lake Mead. The Lake is so far down, that we have water restrictions, desert landscaping over Grass lawns, etc. Unfortunately those water restrictions were not to protect water levels so...

    Overland Hound

    Very cute, all geared up for cold weather expedition's........How difficult was the acclimation to the booties? Back in the day as a kid, the family went to Delmar ghost town in Central-East NV. Over a 3 day period our pup became so footsore from the rocks, that he spent the next 3 days...

    X-Bull Recovery Tracks...another inexpensive alternative

    Yes he does. Good production work, down home likability, and very knowledgeable on what he puts on You-Tube. Someone on here first mentioned him, and after I watched a few videos, I subscribed. He gives honest assessments on the gear he has used, and is not afraid to say so. Between him and...

    X-Bull Recovery Tracks...another inexpensive alternative

    When you get them mounted, details please. Brand, accessories used, etc, how they attached to rack etc, and of course when used, feedback on them. You can never get enough reviews on these products, where vehicle weight vs use come into play.

    X-Bull Recovery Tracks...another inexpensive alternative

    Those pictured in the E-Bay link are.....the ARB Tred gen 3, if indeed they were. HOLY MOLLY, if so what a deal or screw up. No wonder they are sold out. That was just to good a deal to not roll the dice on. I opened the link, and at the price of $90, I was reaching for the phone when I saw...

    X-Bull Recovery Tracks...another inexpensive alternative

    Thx for the comment. Came across another cheap board that touted NYLON in it's construction. Either the material is trickling down into competitive designs, or it's been blatantly pilfered in the lab for copied ratios. After all spectrum anyalizers are cheap in industrial espionage. Maxtrax and...

    Why are there so few Silverado overland rigs?

    I have checked many different forums. You have either the pre-made show pieces, that offer more show than go, or the few that make real plates for 4-6 inch lift systems. Stock or sub 2 inch just seem to be step children. The ones I have seen, are home fabricated. I do not have access for...

    Why are there so few Silverado overland rigs?

    Yes ion that plastic plate, but also that area in front of it, and behind the bottom edge of the steel bumper. Here you can see how unprotected that area is in reality. I once had a bookmarked company out of Canada, that made all types of REAL undercarriage plates and protection pieces for the...

    X-Bull Recovery Tracks...another inexpensive alternative

    I believe it is the X-Bull design that has been copied copied/renamed by at least3 or 4 other companys or names. You have to assume they are made in the same manufacturing plant. The prices are all over the place....from cheap to moderate in cost. The question I would ask is the following. Are...

    Why are there so few Silverado overland rigs?

    So I just found this thread, and had to revise my estimate of Silverado's being used out there based on the views and replies. My truck is stock, no lift, except for the front torsion bars being cranked for leveling. My question is finding a replacement for that PLASTIC air shield under the...

    Truck topper

    Caravan campers out of Reno NV? They have been around for at least 40 years. They make them out of Aluminum sheeting plate, and not the type that is like aluminum foil. They offer reinforced roofs for boats and racks, so check them out. Not cheap, but very durable with lots of options offered.
