    Garmin Overlander

    Wow, that sucks. I have had mine a few years but haven't used it nearly as much as my project vehicle is way behind. I have used it in my more "daily" 4WD vehicles. I found out after the first of the year, they stopped selling the backup cameras. I happened to find two of them (forum and FB...

    GM 6.2L V8 Issues?

    Wow, 93 recommended. In most of CA, we can only get 91 for premium fuel.

    Ram 2500 gasoline extended gas tank help

    My guess is folks are trying to find an under bed/stock location tank and not a tank that sits across the bed like a tool box. Also note this info about California, from their page. NOTE: Due to the California Air Resource Board (CARB) regulations, we will NOT offer gasoline auxiliary fuel...

    Northern Lite 610 for 1/2 Ton PU

    In my experience, those weight are never correct. A full wet weight is almost never listed and is typically a dry weight. Dry weight is meaningless. Full wet weight with all of the actual items in the actual camper are the only true numbers that have any meaning. My Northstar TC800 listed...

    Do people really take their off-road teardrops through gnarly trails?

    Not so much a teardrop but this was a Kamparoo clam shell style trailer we used to pull with our Cherokee. These were out in Death Valley area. The one pic is going up Mengal Pass.

    Tufport Overlander

    Yeah, I saw this pop up in a FB ad. I was like cool.... until I saw the interior height of 65". My M1010 ambo had an interior height of 65" and it was the biggest PITA. Not tall enough to stand upright. I did a roof raise of 8" so I could stand up. Made a world of difference. It think...

    Northern Lite 610 for 1/2 Ton PU

    Personally, I think the whole camper industry needs to change and be force to post the ACTUAL full wet weight of each camper, as it is leaving the factory. No guesstimates, no basic, stripped model weights but with whatever has been installed in that specific camper, full of water, propane...

    The Wanderers build

    Sadly, I have heard of too many horror stories of sheet metal being completely ruined by blaster companies. Bummer the screwed up your doors and gate.

    Desert Turtle - M1010 Build

    I do still have the M1010, though not much happening at the moment. Last April I had a total knee replacement, so that had me dealing with recovery for a few month. Knee is doing great now! Then I have been side tracked with another camper project we bought in Dec. 2022 but still haven't...

    2002 Ford F-350SRW Recommendations

    So 285/75-16 is basically a 33" tall tire (32.8"). If you're looking to change them, with your lift, 35" tall might look better but will cost slightly in MPG. Personally, I would skip the exhaust, unless there is a problem with yours and it needs replacement. Very little power gain but the...

    Cummins British Military Expedition Truck

    It's out of my price range but if you are looking for a US buyer, having it currently titled/registered in the states is going to go a long way to finding a buyer. Most are not going to want to deal with this and any potential issues. Other issue could be parts availability for the chassis...

    Camper jack attachment durability

    That is the common method of mounting. I just had to remove my camper (Northstar TC800) and it is stiff enough that when lowering one corner a couple inches, it will lift the diagonal corner jack off the ground. All seems very solid. As for ripping them off, if you hit anything with them...

    Guess who's back!?! Atl-atl's K5 Blazer + Four Wheel Camper "The Crawlin Cabin" documentation thread!

    You can get some Button Head bolts, which will be rounded like a carriage bolt but have a hex drive used to tighten them. Best of both worlds. You can stiffen up the plate but welding some angle iron pieces on the top side, between the cross members (but not too the cross members). I would...

    Propex Heater in a box.....

    Adventure Trailers (AT Overland) used to offer a portable Propex heater built into a small tool box. You might Google and see if any pics are still out there. I think this one is posted here on ExPo EDIT: Found another pic here
