    Input on cross bar mounting

    I'm gonna use these 1"x3" bars to span the factory roof rails on my 2015 Subaru Forester. These will hold my roof box as well as a mountain bike on each side. This is a per trip basis install and I will remove them after each trip. At present, the only way I can see to mount them, without...

    Bluetooth speaker for overland travel.

    Anybody using one? I was thinking rather than spending money on a new head unit and steering wheel controls adapter in order to stream music while on the road, I could just sit a Bluetooth speaker up on the dash. Lots on Amazon right now with excellent views for under $80.00. I presently...

    Field Desk for rear storage

    Anybody use one in their rig? My carpentry skills suck and a set of factory built drawers just aint in the budget. I thought this might be a cheaper option if you don't sleep in your rig. There are some close to me for $75 each.

    LR Discovery roof rack

    Anybody familiar with the rack pictured. Looks like a factory accessory and I can't determine from the picture if it's multiple pieces. Present owner isn't sure. I'm thinking of picking it up but I hate to pull a trailer 3hrs if it'll break down and fit in my 4 Runner.

    Looking at buying a basket case Discovery 1 series.

    A 10/96 production date to be exact . I know of issues with cylinder liners slipping and cooling issues. However, in the few forums I've joined there weren't may post on transmission or transfer, or axle problems. So are these three pretty bullet proof and just need a good servicing. Thanks...
