    Another Rhino Rack Disaster Class, And How I Think You Can Avoid Being Like Me

    It looks like it may be a parts choice and install error. From what I see you had RCL legs onto a truck cap track system. RCL legs are the incorrect leg to use with a track system. Whoever sold and installed those did it wrong. You need RLT600 or RLTP legs which use 2 bolts per leg. Also, the...

    Broken Baroud Tent Latch Bolt Replacment

    If you are looking for a replacement set of latches, email me at chris@rhinoadventuregear.com our shop has some in stock. But if it’s just hardware you need to fix the problem, I’d suggest just replacing those. I can find you the correct specs on them. It would be a much easier, cheaper, faster...

    Lightest 270 awning

    I think one of the lightest 270s is the Freespirit, Spec’d at 37#. It’s also fairly compact package when closed up and has wall options on all sides and square back. It’s rather easy to open with single rear pivot and a roomy enough bag to pack away easy. The Crosswing is actually rather heavy...

    Does anyone have direct experience using the James Baroud Odyssey?

    The Odyssey is easier to close than than their Evolution models, mainly due to the fabric “plyability’ and how the two halves join, along with the front lip vs latch system. It is slightly heavier than the previous model. I can get an official weight in a couple days, as I sell these at the...

    James Baroud Evasion + Frontrunner Slimline + tunnel awning

    What brackets are you using to mount the JB to the SLII? You could offset the tent so that you get slight overhang on the awning mounted side. Or if possible, mount the awning on the underside of the SLII. To use the tunnel awning correctly it doesn’t require specific orientation relative to the...

    iKamper Introduces A New Wedge Style RTT and a 270- Degree Awning

    I got my hands on our shop demo model ExoShell last week and will be running it on my personal 80 for the Fall and Winter. Some initial thoughts and observations. The ExoShell is a totally new design awning from the ground up, designed and made by iKamper. The hard case benefits, in my opinion...

Just trying to help you out. You’re correct, the Terrapod is a rad tent and made in the USA. Shipping...

    Introducing the Eezi-Awn Swift Awning

    Yeah the sail tracks are different size, ARB to Eezi. For the side wind break on the Swift I used ARB 813207 2M front break. To attach it to the side arms, I drilled 6 snaps into the top of the arm and the corresponding button snap into the fabric. So snap it in 6 spots and you’re done. For the...

    Anyone Running a James Baroud Hard Shell on a K9 Rack?

    Do you have the K9 rack already on your 80? What is the width of the rack? Standard JB tent is 54” wide and the flush mounting tracks are about 28-29” apart. If the JB rails line up with the K9 crossbars, you probably just need spacers so that the crossbar and tent rail meet each other to be...

    Have you made your own DIY propane hose for a camp stove?

    I sourced all quick connect fittings for my hose going from the 5lb tank to my stove or bbq. It’s quick and lessens wear and tear on threads.

    iKamper Skycamp initial thoughts and observations

    Hey! Oh man. Having owned one of the first Kickstarter versions myself and now owning a 2.0 as well as selling tons of them, the real question between the ”1.0“ and 2.0 is what haven’t they changed. They constantly refine their product with little details and the 2.0 is definitely a solid jump...

    Exped MegaMat Adapter for Air Compressor?

    I recently bought a Megamat and was testing it out and when I’d let it self inflate it didn’t do much just with the inflate valve cap off. I looked at the instructions again and didn’t catch the part that says to remove the inflate cap, then push the tethered zipper tap lookingthing into the...

    JKU platform help

    Speaking on the Rhino Rack Backbone for either the JKU or JLU and removal of the hard top, there is no extra parts to remove on the JKU specifically. On the JLU, there are 2 extra bolts going thru the roll bar at the second row door that need to be removed. So really not much extra work to pull...

    Mounting iKamper Skycamp mini on my bedrack (and trailer)

    I would get a set of 1.0 mounting brackets and thru bolt it to your rack. (1bolt on each corner going thru the rack with fender washer in underside and nut). It is a lot cleaner of an install and you can add anti theft nuts to the 1.0s for security. Hope that helps.

    Home automation in your expedition vehicle

    Check out Simarine‘s Pico system. It’s easily the most user friendly, clear monitoring system I’ve seen. A couple friends of mine have been running that system in their 4wds and have had a lot of fun with it.

    Ikamper skycamp mini vs skycamp 2x and other options

    I think for a Cayenne, the Mini is the way to go, although I wouldn’t mount it to factory crossbars on any vehicle. Upgrade to a set of aftermarket crossbars and have the Mini mount to that.
