Переглядів 364 місяці тому
today a short video about he Coolsolux solar work light. This is a great light available on amazon right now. it is solar powered, comes with a stand and has a detachable utility light. This is great for the campsite, or in the unfortunate event you need light to work on the rig in the middle of the night. Amazon link www.amazon.com/dp/B0CPSHVJNX

KingCamp Ultralight Cot - Just how easy is it?
Just got one for $75 thanks the video
I was unable to put the spreaders on like that. 5 ft, 64 yrs old and not strong. It was hell to get those on. Turned on the side standing up.
Hows it holding up so far ?
👌🏼
👍🏼
which lake ?
I just ordered Same because MetalCloak don't make one for front Differential. Rear only took 15 minutes for install.
Just camped there and the mosquitoes were so bad! I’ve never encountered them so bad, and the yellow flies were horrible as well. It was agonizing.
can you share the link to the obd2 dongle? thx
using bolts off differential cover worries me. Would truly hate snapping one..lol
Every diff skid plate uses them

did your headlights start flashing blue after you turned them on at night?
No. They never did that. However the app and the color controller never did work as well as I wanted them to and I ended up pulling the fuse for that. They work as normal headlights with out the controller. Thanks for watching hope it was helpful.
What inline fuse holder did you use? Was it an 8 gauge with maxi fuses?
Yes. I ran larger wires due to the length of the run. You can look up references for that on line in multiple locations. I don’t have the exact reference in front of me.
Sadly I ve own that model and it's a peace of ship . Brakes easy. Roll over and the side without spring clips will collapse . The side with spring clips those well brake .
I have been worried about that. But so far I have t had an issue. When it fails I will move to something else. So far so good.

Where is link to Amazon?
😊
Thanks
Here the issues 1) The plastic well brake on part that lock is place 2) the side that does not have lock will fold under you if you roll over. . I had 2 and return both of them because they broke . Dont buy them.
I that sucks. I’ve had the HD version for about two years now. It’s a little bit wider and also taller. I’m a big guy (6’3” and about 250lbs) I fit on the HD and it’s been solid so far but I admit I have had concerns about the amount of plastic in the setup.
Great video. Thanks for posting. I've had mine for almost 2 years and its good, but tricky now only because of the plastic GX rear upper wing. Wish the pins didnt rust out and get all misaligned with the holes either. Had to replace adhesive a few times but overall best GX ladder right now.
Thanks for the feedback. I am considering a mount system to carry a 5lb propane tank on the ladder. Based on your experience is that a good idea?

*beautiful trail, the skid plate did a fantastic job... our skids look all bent up just like yours* 😅 *thank you for sharing*
Thanks. I know the skids are going to get beat up. But the first hit after you put them on is the worst.
i want one...
They are surprisingly good.
I wouldn't even bother putting it back on. Can you get skid plates to protect the front end?
Yes you can. And no I’m not. Stay tuned. There are parts in the garage….
You will definitely benefit from that lift!
Yeah I think that’s in the future for sure. Building this is different than the jeeps I’ve had in the past and the lift is no different. It will be latter in the build this time. Thanks for watching!!!
Good to see the gang back!
Dumb question - are the side rails the same length? I just purchased this kit and the side rails are different lengths which means the latches are offset too. Bestop customer service is trying to tell me this is normal when logic tells me otherwise for how this is supposed to fit and function.
No the rails were the same length for sure. You’re right, it would never line up correctly otherwise.

Thanks. The animals love it!!!
Nice!
Thanks.
I just ordered the Wouxun KG1000G PLUS on 2/2/24 from myGMRS and can’t wait to receive it! I was really surprised how easy the Wouxun software ‘is’ …and, how much like CHIRP it is as well. The only downside, imo, to the WOUXUN software is that you have to have the software pertinent to the particular radio, whereas, with CHIRP you can use its software for many radios of your choice. But, that’s definitely not a game changer to me. I’m currently running a BTECH 50-VR as a base and it’s been working flawlessly here in the extreme north side of Houston,Tx using a nonground fiberglass 17” antenna mounted on a 20’ pole and am able to connect with all the repeaters around me…and, it’s so nice they’re all linked to pretty much everywhere in the country practically! In addition to the base radio I have two Baofeng HTs I started out with (UV-5R and UV-9G…which are useless to me unless I hook my base radio antenna to them and that can become a pain!). I also have the Inrico T-320 network radio and DV SWITCH on my phone (both using the Texas GMRS node 1000 and the Louisiana Roadkill node 50132) But, as you know, as a radio operator we’re never happy with what we have and just ‘have’ to upgrade to a bigger, better, and, a more badass radio! 😂. Nice video! Sorry for being long winded, but, I didn’t even get started on why I bought and like the new WOUXUN radio! 73s!

I need to do this for my brother, who is going from CB to GMRS . DID you use CB antenna? Or is that a GMRS? He drives a Jeep too.
It needs to be a GMRS antenna.
thank you for the great instructions but do you know where might be the wheel lock for the jeep?
I was wondering what speed do you usually drive at? Is cruise control activated? What size tires do you have?
So I try to use the cruise when on the highway. I set it at the speed limit so usually 70-75. I was running 35x10.50 kanda klever RT tires when I made this video.
@@orderofthetravelinghats236 I see very interesting. I wonder what you would get around 50 to 60 mph. On 35s or stock tires.
9lbs is not light weight.
It would not be my choice for backpacking. But for overlanding or car camping it is very well suited.
@@orderofthetravelinghats236 that i could see.
I moved from PA to TX so I need to add the local GMRS Repeaters to my KG-1000G. Unfortunately my Parallels subscription ran out, will have to renew. Curious if it is possible to add a Repeater directly through the face plate, without using the software? I guess I should Google for an answer. But I see you also have a JLUR with the overhead radio bar, so thought I’d ask.
Yes you can add any repeater directly. It’s a little slow. But the manual tells you how to do it.
Great video. Im gonna look into these this spring for my Rubicon. Is the ones you got the Black Twill or Black Dimond version? I see theres 2 different options. 1 looks heavier than the other. Thanks.
You’re welcome!!!
@@orderofthetravelinghats236 Did you use the Black Twill or Black Dimond? I believe ones heavier than the other correct?
@@mattman2567 I used the Black Twill, it is a heavier material for sure. The Black Diamond looks a little like pleather while the Black Twill looks and feels premium..
Thanks for showing the software fail and not just editing it out and doing the upload of the new system.
Mygmrs should post what channel. Not frequencies.
The repeaters are on a set frequency and the pulse codes which ever format are listed. If not on mygmrs then on the local GMRS community web site. In this case the Arkansas GMRS community.
Have any trouble with the app not working? Cant connect to Bluetooth?
that looks to be a great hitch.
Thanks.
The roof rack looks good. I wanted to point out something I seen, the weather stripping on the front and back. Look into getting some clear vinyl to go on the GX wind and vibration will cause scratches over time.
Good find on the trail! It’s amazing to me how much fun you can have in a basically stock but capable vehicle to have adventures such as this.
It was a great day for sure.
I used to do the same thing, if it wasn't a major outing (overnight, all day long hike, etc) I wouldn't go anywhere. Then the weeks start going by having done nothing thinking of all the wasted time. Now, like you said, even if it's jumping in the Gladiator for some unplanned half a day exploration (and doesn't even have to be offroad), a short hike close to home, a quick ride on the fat tire e-bike.......not everything has to be a grand expedition. And some of those impromptu outings turn out to be some of the best. There's just too much to enjoy and too little time to sit around waiting for the perfect time or place, you just need to get out. Also, I mentioned before about not being happy with my Gladiator with lots of little issues like you and considering a 1-2 yr old GX as well. 7,500 miles and had my first bout of death wobble on the highway a few days ago. Another thing to add to the list and have never been so disappointed in a brand new vehicle. Problem now is they're heavily discounting new Gladiators and trade in/resale values have really tanked.
Exactly. Thanks!!

Thanks…
Word of advice find a old blanket and cut a few squares for the feet to protect the floor of your tent
Will do that. Thanks for watching.

How has the compressor held up since making this video?
Not a single issue! It holds up well and is very well built.
Looks great! Can't wait to see more!!
More to come!
I've got a nice camp cot too but I'm curious what you think of the feet possibly tearing a hole in the bottom of the tent.
I had that concern as well, but I have had zero issues from that. The feet actually spread the weight around effectively. I can't say it wouldn't happen, but it hasn't happened to me, and I've been using the cot regularly.
@orderofthetravelinghats236 thanks for sharing. I'll make sure to use a ground sheet no matter what when using my cot. Hopefully that will help too. I loved having a cot on my last trip and I'll want to keep using mine for canoe trips and the such.
@@AbundantAdventures The ground sheet can't hurt!
Cool! Excited to watch this build!
And did you make it out to RITO ?
