    My afternoon mods were to “hardwire” some usb outlets into the tent as well as my lumenoodle. I had it last trip just lazily tossed up around the poles and it was so incredibly handy that I wanted to make it permanent. There’s an extra usb outlet to charge my phone or run a fan.

    Hey guys, I was just wondering if these wheel spacers could be considered a great deal. Cause that's what I found on eBay! I've been thinking about getting them for a long time and I think this would be a good option for rig.

    This puts a little less stress on the plug and wire since it’s a more gradual bend vs a sharp 120 degree back towards the tube.

    or at least that’s what I tell myself.

    I’d stay away. Those marks are from someone hitting it with a hammer to free it from the truck. If that person doesn’t even own a dead blow, probably don’t own a torque wrench either.

    Now, there have been instances with my old spacers where I had to tap them with a hammer and it left a slight mark, but those marks pictured are from someone wailing on it.

    Looks like they were hit with a framing hammer. dafuq?


    yeah I could see that. I'd just be worried about it rubbing against stuff in the bed, but I'd guess its only going to be plugged in when the tent is in use.

    I'd rather use an atv winch and 30,000 snatch blocks. Much cheaper

    My new camping cook set came in and I’m very impressed with it.

    The best part is the order of operations is engraved into the lid so you can actually get it to best back together.
