    RTT mattress thickness

    I have a Tepui Explorer Ayer RTT and would like to upgrade\add more comfort to the mattress. I've read numerous threads and have been looking at some of the 1.5" memory toppers on Amazon.

    Toyota Pickup 2WD Low Range

    Hello everyone. I put together this video for anyone that has an early 90's 4x4 Toyota Pickup with A.D.D. front diff and don't have manual hubs. This is a cheap way to hack the vacuum system to allow you to have 2WD Low Range. I have been using this for several years on my 1991 Toyota...

    Ideas for lid support?

    I'm in the middle of the build process on my trailer and am working on the lid. I'm planning on having a RTT on it at a later date so I will be installing gas pistons but I have to save up for the tent. I don't want to rely on gas pistons to hold the entire weight of the lid up. They always...

    North Idaho Backwoods Adventure - October 2015

    A couple months ago my wife gave me the dates for her weekend away to quilt camp with the gals. This means that I was going to be home with our three kids, ages 8,6 and 3 unless I find something for us to do. I looked around for different locations that the kids and I could go for our October...

    Dug Bar, Oregon - March 2014

    Since I was a kid, I've been to Dug Bar in Northeastern Oregon dozens of times but it had always been via a jet boat navigating the rapids while going up the Snake River. This is a beautiful way to get to Dug Bar and probably faster in the long run. Last Fall I got a wild hair and decided to...
