For my TV, I found that using the upper sets of plate mounting holes gave me a better lift range.

If I don’t have neighbors I’ll use a small impact driver. With neighbors I’ll run the jack down by hand. For jacking the wheel off the ground I keep an 18” rachet.

I used the area under the AC.

Rotopax has a good system for carrying fuel. You can mount a plate on a cargo basket. Pricey though.

The Garmin 750i has two way satellite capability with on demand weather. You won’t get an alert but you can get a weather prediction. You can also purchase a lightening degector which will give you a thunderstorm alert, distance, and estimated time of arrival.

Tent- Hilleberg (most can be set up dry in the rain) Stove- MSR Multifuel (works in the cold) Bag- Marmot(seem to be accurate on temperature range) Shoes- personal choice (try on with the weight of socks you will always wear, replace every 3-5 years regardless of tread wear) Water- UV plus...

In the Blackwater State Forest you will find Krull Lake (no pets due to swimming in the pond), Bear Lake, and Hurricane Lake. All are excellent campgrounds. Big Lagoon west of Pensacola is highly rated along with Blackwater State Park in Santa Rosa County. Campgrounds connected to the armed...

My 2013 just has sheet metal screws holding the bracket/light on. The ½ inch hole merely lets the wires in. (I’ve taken the assembly off several times). The rounded aluminium creates a trap for something dropped in this area. A fiber optic viewer and a flexible grabber is the only thing I can...

It looks like tar from the road. I use a little naphtha to remove it, then rewax.

I have been scanning family photos and came across these two. Probably 1952, I don't know where. The lady is my mother and the two boys are my older brothers. The younger one is two years older than I.

Contrary to good driving etiquette, I have used the left lane on washboard Interstates. When I see bounces of over a foot I move over. Slowing down doesn’t seem to help.

The links in the older posts aren’t working, for me. You might try Stabilizer Accessories – Ultra-Fab Products Also, looking at the construction/attachment of the nut it seems that using a power driver (drill or impact) might contribute to damage to the cotter pin. Thoughts?

I recently purchased the 1up rack (single) with the cargo carrier and turn signal kit. It fits really nicely and is easy to put on and take off.

OpenSignal works pretty good, it has a tower locator and uses speed as a stand in for signal strength if you have an iPhone (no Apps and no built in dB viewer)

I have a 2015 XTerra tow vehicle, with manual transmission. While using cruise control on the interstate all the warning lights came and it felt like the clutch was going to blow. I depressed the clutch and pulled off. After turning off the engine I did a normal restart. With the cruise...

I just added a four pin to the back of my CI for a bike/cargo carrier. Basically, it’s the same as adding a four pin to a car. The tail lights pop out and have labels on the lights. I tied in the tail, right, and ground to the right side and the left to ….the left light. The wires can be...

I usually set up the side tent if camping for 2 or more nights. A dry entry is one of the primary reasons I use it. It seems that the bathtub bottom is equally good at holding water in as keeping it out. When it pools close to the CI door it must be sponged out. I’m thinking of adding...
