I'm moving from Payson AZ to the Williamsburg area of Virginia. Can anyone tell me of local gladiator groups, trail groups, best places to ride, best places to camp particularly in that area. I've hiked the Appalachian Trail so I know western Virginia fairly well around skyline. And I'm quite...
I installed one on my 2001 Cherokee, the inline 6 is notorious for rust and filling up a radiator with it. They definitely do work. My coolant remains green! You'll want to do a good flush first and replace parts that are suspect. Plumbing parts from Home Depot or off Amazon. The Baldwin B5134...
Actually the vent is open To relieve the vacuum. It's just 1/4 inch bulkhead fitting used in RO systems. You described it pretty well though. I've use these in my hydroponic system, cutting three inch holes for grow pots. But now that they have the holes in them, they're useless for anything else.
I could always paint it black at some point or any other color (billboard anyone?) but I'm not looking for hot water as paint on vinyl won't age well. Its not intended to be pressurized, just gravity fed as wash water. To protect the vinyl surface, I'll keep it 303'd or cover it with sacrificial...
The fence posts (sleeve) come in 3,4,5,6" from Home Depot and are solid vinyl, same as PVC pipe. There's others out there that are laminated vinyl. I used the square as its easy to secure to a flat surface like the T slot and tapping it is simple using bulkhead or RO fittings. Since it's not...
My camping is usually only three or four nights and two gallons of wash water hasn't been quite enough. Added a 4 gallon auxiliary tank on the rack. Used a PVC fence post with caps, valve and an air vent. Adding a 4ft leader hose for filling. It's not really for potable water but it could be if...
I installed the fire extinguisher. Guess you never know when you're gonna need it. Wondering how many other folks have one as well. And are there any good stories that they've actually had to use one . I thought this was the best place for it since I would be in a hurry to get to it if I needed...
I just installed a second one over the tailgate to shade the ice coolers. They were on sale on Amazon for $135, so I grabbed another. This is the smaller of the two as they make a bigger one but it was way too large for what I wanted. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08ZS3Y1X7. The cover you see is a...
The All-Top awnings were on sale on Amazon for $135. Installed another one on the back over the tailgate where I guess I'll keep the coolers out of the AZ sun. T slot extrusions would be the way to go but shipping for those is far too expensive. Had some mahogany that should last a long time...
Camping on the Mogollon Rim north of Payson AZ. About 100 ft from the 700 ft drop so a good breeze most of the time. Campsites are unlimited up here, being the Coconino National Forest. I don't do fires, maybe charcoal if a steak is handy.
The risers are 18" and I could have shortened it a bit and still had clearance. I didnt want a rollup as they are known to leak. Im not aware of any trifolds it wouldn't work with. I installed the MX4 then build a 2x3 wood frame as a pattern to order the extrusions precut. I suppose I couldn't...
Drilled 5/16" holes through the bed rail. Its centered on the raised ridge on the original bed rail plastic cover. That centers it underneath nicely to get a lock nut on. Also had to put a strip of heavy 1/4 x 1/2" foam on one side of the extrusion to level it due to the MX4 flange. You can...
Heres a list about 95% complete. Things I learned........... Use the aluminum tnut w/ball spring in 5/16".......The economy steel ones are cheaper but harder to setup on a vertical, unless using a magnet to align it with the bolt. Either way, use anti-seize on the bolt!.... Build it first out of...
Theres 4 -5/16" SS carriage bolts 3" long the hold each side down. The head fits nicely in the tslot. Underneath its centered on the space with a lock nut and washer like it was designed that way. Each rail is 52" but could be a bit longer in the back. I wanted to leave the bed rail open for...
Make your own using T slot material from places like TNUTZ. All custom, much stronger you could imagine and a whole heck of a lot cheaper. Picture shows an 18 inch riser allowing for an MX4 from Realtruck. The center support isn't necessary but does hold the DYI molle rack from a bbq grill...
Your a genius! Thanks it not only works for the alarm but stays as last state after restart. I doubt now that I'll go to the trouble of relocating the camera.
Well put and I agree and that's how i approach these kind of problems. Less is better. Seemed like there's a cheap easy solution to the alarm annoyance. The picture doesn't show the bed extender that I use in order to be able to get all my camping gear under the tonneau cover. I keep most of the...
