I know these fridges are getting old but it looks like Whynter is still making them. I recently broke a handle off my (8 year old) fridge and decided I'd make some actual tie downs for it so I don't have to replace another $20 handle... I used 1/8" aluminum, which should be plenty strong...

This has been a great car for us for several years but we don't need it anymore. The interior is in excellent condition. It needed a transmission when we bought it with 240k on it and i put a 100k mile trans in it from a salvage yard. The exterior has some scratches and door dings, rub rash...

Update 6/2/17 - It just sold. And I told them the next one they are selling is spoken for. :) First, the confession: There is no link to another site. I do not own this van. Selling cars is not my business. I am posting this for the company next door to my rented shop space. They've...

I just stumbled on this while looking for an ARB bumper for an XJ. http://westslope.craigslist.org/cto/5131161010.html Looks to be a very solid truck that just needs a little engine work. (Head gasket?) Don't have a clue who the seller is, just thought someone might be interested. Chris

Fellow portal members, I'm trying to do some ride tuning on my pieced together Jeep, and I need some parts... I need a pair of stock LJ rear springs. I also need a pair of stock XJ "Up Country" front springs, or perhaps even a set of springs from a 4.0L standard XJ. Just trying to move...

Well, I have an XR400 that I'm fairly happy with, but it's a little tiresome running any distance on pavement. I've geared it up to a 16 tooth front sprocket, and that helps quite a bit, but it's still a little buzzy above about 50mph for riding any distance. In an effort to do more road...

Well, I've been trying to find some used 235/85's to put on a set of 16x6" wheels that I want to run on my Comanche project... The other day I called on a CL ad for "New AT tires" in Denver and found that he was selling 235/85R16 Hercules Terra Trac AT's for $120/tire. These tires get good...

Well, after years of getting the crap kicked out of me by whatever shocks I put on my jeep back when I built it in 2005, I finally bucked up and ordered some new shocks. I debated Bilstein and OME to great length, and ended up going with OME for two reasons: 1. More travel from the same...

Found a nice 2001 Phoenix pop-up slide-in camper on CL: http://boulder.craigslist.org/rvs/3672615294.html I looked at it over the weekend, but it's going to be too small for my needs. Overall it's in pretty good condition, and I don't think it's ever been stored outside. No stains on the...

I was riding on the snowmobile trial along hwy 191 yesterday and saw a SWEET Mitsubishi 4wd van heading south into West Yellowstone, MT. Looked like a very nice setup for overlanding, and exploring in general! It looked longer than the L300 vans that I see online... ?? If I see it again...

I bought a new but missing stuff ARB bumper for my GMC, and it didn't come with the bumper turn signals. Of course I found a bunch of info that they're VW MK2 golf lights, so I bought a set of clear ones... Turns out the lights in the newer bumpers, particularly those termed "Sahara" or...

Ok, so inspired by reading about a few suburban build threads last night, I did a CL search and found a sweet one in Eastern Colorado. Click here for link! It looks like it's in mint condition, at least on the outside. And it's a 3/4 Ton! And the listed price is $1500!!!! I have too...

Ok, inspired by some of the interesting and helpful posts I've seen on here, I'm going to try to document some of the projects that are involved in making my "new" camper into a better unit for me. First on the menu: Electronic Thermostat. (Inspired by Northern Explorer) I may move it later...

Greetings, short time lurker, first time poster... So I'm planning to pick up a '94 Hallmark Ute this weekend to use exploring Colorado and the west in general this summer, both for me on weekends and for my parents, who will come visit from MI for a few weeks and do some traveling. I have an...
