I have an old horizontal compressor that has sprung a leak in the bottom of the tank. I'm guessing this is pretty dangerous - like a time bomb! I guess I could pull the big plug and drop a camera in to verify, but I'm betting it is just rusted through since it is the very bottom of the tank...

Finally installed a winch on my new JLU. The Smittybilt 12k came with synthetic line and forged hook. I've already invested in some soft shackles as the new, safer mode. How many of you have deleted your winch hook in favor of a loop? Should I even worry about it? Any real-world advice?

I've been. toying with this idea for a few years and I'm finally in the market sometime this year for a toad to tow behind my motorhome. The wife and I have pretty much decided on a Wrangler Unlimited JL. This would be primarily for towing behind the motorhome and running around/trail...

I'm going to break down and buy a cordless grinder, ratchet, and impact for the garage and likely a string trimmer and chainsaw for the yard. Is there anything new in battery technology? What should I look out for at the holiday sales? Is Milwaukee still considered the best? I have ryobi...

Taking a last-minute trip to Denver later this afternoon returning tomorrow. I will be going in a pickup truck and returning towing a 14k dump trailer. I have no real preference for route, so I will likely take Hwy 6/I-70 there and I-80 back just for variety.

I’m going to be needing a heavy trailer to haul a 9k excavator. Gooseneck or bumper pull. Willing to rent or buy at a reasonable price. Let me know if you’ve got something.

Looking for a medium duty military tow bar to use on an M939 and CUCV. Any chance someone has one sitting around? If not, where would be the most likely places close to slc?

I'm considering buying a 4-door Wrangler in the next year or so. It will be used to flat tow behind a motorhome. It will likely see 90% road miles, so it needs to be a little bit comfortable. I'm not opposed to a rubicon or something. It would be nice to have lockers and better axles, but it...

My brother in law has a mid-90's chevy half ton that has a pretty decent rear end whine. It is bone stock and he won't likely be doing anything dramatic with it, but the whine worries him. The truck is obviously not worth a lot. What is the most economical approach besides turning the stereo...

Interesting article in yesterday's Tribune on off road vehicle noise in Moab. Seems relevant because the issue has been discussed pretty extensively here. The main guy in the article bought a home near sand flats road and now complains that the noise at his home is unbearable. While I feel...

Is there enough snow anywhere near SLC to do some decent snowshoeing? I haven't ventured out much, but there is almost no snow in the oquirhs.

I rented two different 4x4s over the last week and wanted to rave and gripe about them somewhere. First vehicle, I needed to transport some cargo from Stockton, CA to Utah, so I rented a pickup from Hertz in Oakland, and drove it back to Utah in a day. They assigned me a new Silverado crew cab...

The cylinder on my 50 ton press started leaking pretty bad this year. It just leaks around the main seal on the ram. Anyone tackled rebuilding one of these or know a source for seals?

Just a little rant about vehicle fault codes. I've been fixing a few things on my Freightliner crawler hauler in preparation for selling it. It had a few check engine codes after being in storage for 5 years, but on a heavy duty truck, it actually tells you what is wrong. Here is an example...

1997 2 Axle Freightliner Century FLC112 with custom rollback bed. Cummins M-11 410 HP with dual stage jake brake. 10 speed transmission with 2.65 rear end. Built to cruise at 65. Mid-rise 60" sleeper with 2 jack knife sofas along each side, each with 3 seat belts. Both fold down to make one...

Lots of second thoughts about selling this, but I need room in my garage and I refuse to leave a bike outside. When my boys were younger, we had some great times on this bike, whether around the neighborhood or out in the desert! Micargi LS2008 triple tandem 3-seat mountain bike. Perfect...

A buddy of mine is selling a Toyota Tundra. I have no interest or involvement, just know there is a Toyota following here! https://cars.ksl.com/listing/6273973

We have a Japanese exchange student staying with us. It is her last week here and we have pretty much checked everything off her list and then some, but she would really like to go camping in our fifth wheel - likely not something they do much in Japan. We only have time for a couple of days...

SeaRider 360 Catamaran/Windsurfer. 4'6" x 11' with 17' mast. Was originally advertised as a "car toppable" catamaran made to sail like a windsurfer. I guess that 'car-toppable' could be true with a real full-size car/truck/van. I've always intended to get it fixed up, but I have way too many...

Single wheel and tire - will separate for $60 if you want one. Helo HE791 17x9 6 lug wheel. Chrome in pretty good condition - no rash - some corrosion in lug holes. Includes plastic hubcap not pictured, but in poor condition. Nitto Terra Grappler P265/70R17 ~50% tread in good condition. PM or...
