Ooo that’s a tough one. I’m not certain. I would reach out to the fridge manufacturer; they would probably do a better job at helping diagnose the problem.

@@NarrowRoadAdventures unfortunately/fortunately they didn't bother troubleshooting it, we did a few basic steps, then it was it needs to be replaced. They didn't make that model anymore, so I had to settle for a much smaller unit. I was trying to see if I could fix this one and come out ahead.

I like the bed treads. Much better than carpet for my needs. The downside is they don’t have floor drains built in so to clean you either have to remove them (like carpet) or shop vac them and scrub while in the jeep. I have just done the latter. I think Armorlite is double the price that I wasn’t willing to spend.

I can’t think of a reason why to get XL stems unless your wheel is really thick. They do a pretty good job explaining on their website why you might want them. Having them stick out further than necessary could make it easier for them to catch on something and break.

Glad it was helpful. Enjoy your awning!

Thank you, Frank. I look forward to family adventures this summer in the trailer.

Sure my friend Taylor, you will do have a wonderful trip with it. ^_^@@NarrowRoadAdventures

😂 It was the random “barbecue” that really sold me. 😋

Yes! We ended up buying one, just never got around to hooking it up.

Just looked it up. Yes, it was. We weren’t really trying to reach it, she just happened to look it up and we realized the (minor) significance of where we were.

@@NarrowRoadAdventures thought so. A little south of that spot I know a trail that you can climb up almost as high as Briarhill.

Cool! I may have found it on the map.

@@NarrowRoadAdventures it’s a fun trail going up and coming down lol

@@NarrowRoadAdventures Views from the top and the down hill portion are in the start of this video. As usual the video doesn’t do the hill justice. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3Ooq2honNugbaMsi=CDe2-t2bOTpUjwiW

Professional speed walker …or something. 😂

They are Katzkin leather material replacement.

It depends on the wheels. These are well protected by the ring of my beadlock wheels. The values are 1.6” long from mounting surface. Wheels that have the valve mounting close to the rim edge, I agree with you, and would only run rubber valves.

Everything we drove were just seasonal roads. We can’t say take this road because many are short and turn into other roads. When we plan our routes we use some map layers on Gaia GPS phone app that show the paved roads vs the non-paved and to plot out our routes. We also look at Google Maps satellite view as a side reference. It takes a few hours to plan out a weekend route but it is fun to explore the areas and route you plan out; it’s part of the adventure. In Gaia you can also use the “public land” map layer to see where would be legal to camp within the forests. Hope that helps. For a Gaia GPS discount, check out our website: NarrowRoadAdventures.com

I’ve been going through that trail for years and it keeps getting more nasty, always changing. Thanks for watching!

Unfortunately, we have not been able to find them recently as we think ours might be starting to have an issue again.

Glad you found it helpful. Yes we saw those Ram chargers and thought they were way too much, this has been a good budget solution. Thanks for watching!

Takes tools to make anything. Go visit Harbor Freight.

It depends on the charger used. This one charges fine through my thin otterbox case so long as my phone is centered to the charger.

We enjoy exploring the Daniel Boone! Beautiful down there. Michigan has ORV Routes (“routes” fit road vehicle). Or if you prefer to explore less run areas, as we do, it’s finding seasonal roads to explore. We use Gaia GPS app for planning our routes. (Go to our website for a discount.) Using the “public land” map overlay it also shows where private land boarders are and so if we see a seasonal road goes into a non-public land area then we can usually count on it being a dead-end and route a different way. Takes a bit of planning rather than just jumping on a pre-organized Daniel Boone Backcounty Byway and going but it also aids in the reward of the exploration. Hope this helps!

@@NarrowRoadAdventures Thanks alot for the feedback! Much appreciated. Is Gaia better than Onx..? I've never used either. Just curious. Also if going ORV routes are vehicles (overlanders) frowned upon by the sxs/atv crowd? Wouldn't want to step on the locals norms haha. Thanks again!

I would say the programs are similar. I have not used Onx. Gaia has always worked great for me and I trust it. It’s also my primary (yet not only) means of navigation for backpacking in the backcountry. SUVs have just as much right to the Routes as anyone else. No one should be upset. Only time anyone has been upset with me was snowmobiles when I was on a shared route with them. I avoid those in the winter now. If you see someone come up behind you fast, be polite and get over and wave them around so they can pass.

We haven’t had one snap. They bend but depends on what you plan to bridge and how far you plan to take them. They work well in a pinch and for the average Explorer. With our aggressively built rig and the degree we tend to get stuck, we have recently stepped up to USA Action Trax and compare that you get what you pay for. Depends on someone’s budget and needs.

That paid for themselves! 👍

Glad you enjoyed it. I think we were near Pine River part of the time if I remember right.

Mounted it up and works! I still need to unspool the line and spool it with tension. Then…need to try to get stuck. Sorry I don’t have more of an answer, it’s only been mounted for a week.

any updates from you?

I am getting rid of this winch and putting my Smittybuilt on this Wrangler. Sorry, I will not be having a long-term review of this winch.

@@NarrowRoadAdventures because it's not working out?

I am getting rid of my Grand Cherokee which had a Smittybuilt X2O. The Smitty is better quality so I want to keep that one and put it on the Wrangler. I will then not have a need for a second winch so the Walmart winch is going to go. It probably would have been just fine but I don’t have any experience with the Walmart winch. I know the Smitty is reliable so I’m going to stick with what I know and has proven itself.

Not yet. Planning to roll it out in the spring along with a follower group ride weekend. There are also a couple routes that DNR have recently closed so we need to make some edits.

We always carry two recovery methods, a shovel and traction mats as a minimum and a recovery strap for recovering others. If you’re smart and don’t take unnecessary risks, a shovel and traction mats can get you out of most things. We do have a winch on our main adventure vehicle which was having an issue at the time (reason I took this Jeep).

Lol “$20 DIY Wireless Charger …FOR Ram mount” as the title describes, $20 is for the charger addition, not the mount. The chargers have actually gotten cheaper so now it only costs about $12.

Sadly yes. Hope to have time this winter to finish it up. My friend wanted to get his Taco out so I gladly let him pull my trailer if I could come. Was itching to get out. 😁

@@NarrowRoadAdventures Can't wait to see it done! And yeah I dont blame you lol.
