    Trailer Tongue Storage Box

    I've been looking for the same kind of box, and have yet to find out who makes them. I've seen them on more than one trailer, so they have to be out there somewhere.

    Utility Body

    I have two of them. They're a bit heavy, but I think they make the ideal great expedition trailers.

    Shorter "Stratchits"?

    Check out the Perfect Bungee Adjustable Bungee. They're not rubber, but they're elastic, and they're adjustable in 6" increments. Incredibly tough and very strong. Sun doesn't seem to affect them. I discovered them a couple of years ago and bought a couple. After getting them and using...

    Where do you buy used roof top tent?

    I'm sure it depends on where you live, but in my area Craigslist almost always has a few listings.

    Whynter 12v Fridge reviews? Alpicool?

    I have the Whynter 45, but badged as an Edgestar. I bought it in 2009 and it has been running almost continuously since then, either in my truck on 12V or in the house on 120V. It has been dead reliable and has never missed a beat.

    Ark articulating hitch

    Does anyone here have any experience with the Australian built Ark articulating hitches? If so, how well do you like it? I'm very familiar with Lock 'n' Roll and Max-coupler. But I haven't been able to find much info on the Ark.

    Lifespan of a Whynter fm-62dz

    Several reasons, but mainly for features that EdgeStar doesn't offer.

    Where can I find HP Brown Sauce in the U.S.?

    I've been buying HP Sauce at Albertsons. A whole lot cheaper than Amazon sellers.

    Lifespan of a Whynter fm-62dz

    I have two, an EdgeStar and an Engel. The EdgeStar has been trouble free for 11 years, but the Engel has been problematic, and Engel has not been responsive to my inquiries for information. I intend to buy another in the near future and it will be a SnoMaster. They're kind of expensive, but...

    Lifespan of a Whynter fm-62dz

    Congratulations. I have an EdgeStar, which is a rebadged Whynter, that I bought in 2009. It's been all over the back country, and when it's at home it's in constant use as a freezer. It's been running almost constantly now for 11 years without a hiccup. I wish I could say the same for my...

    Yeah, and the older I get, the more sublime it gets. :)

    scepter mfc - gaskets

    Don't expect an answer. That's his one and only post, and he's never logged in here again since that day, six years ago. And you won't be able to find anything on ar15.com unless you create an account and log in.

    ARB Fridge cart?

    I'm getting kinda lazy in my old age. I use one of these. Plus, it's really handy around the shop. http://www.harborfreight.com/1000-lb-capacity-hydraulic-table-cart-60438-9328.html

    Toy Hauler

    Any idea how it got so thoroughly trashed? San Diego isn't known for hurricanes or hailstorms.

    Questions about charging 6 volt batteries with Atlen or Harbor Freight generators?

    You're comparing machines that are not comparable. The Alten is strictly 12 volt output. The two HF generators are primarily 120 volt output, although the 2200 has a 12 volt receptacle that outpts 8.3 amps. The 700 will produce about 6 amps continuous. If the output was 2200 watts at 12...

    hub adapter for trailer

    What is GM's metric pattern? Same as Ford's?

    hub adapter for trailer

    You have to wonder why Ford changed something that has been an industry standard for decades. It's kind of like 5 on 4.5", which has been used all over the world since early in the last century. Why would a manufacturer change to an oddball, unless they want to force you to buy something only...
