Yes it can be used with any of the battery setups like jackery, ecoflow, anker, etc. as far as how much power does it use, i would say its really negligible if you pre heat the water maybe 100w for the pump while you shower, if you use the element to heat the water its going to take quite a bit 1500 to 2000 watts

Thanks and thanks for the feedback

Right on

Both the ladder and mattress do not weigh that much and especially the mattress would be a pain to remove, i keep the ladder in the jeep so i think this tent in particular is really light anyway so its a good one to have if your weight conscious

I appreciate it but i will pass thanks

@@FischerJeepAdventures You can solve this with the vidIQ / Tubebuddy extension. If you are unable to do so, granting me permission will allow me to address this issue.

Thanks

Well thats certainly a perspective that is yours, one thing you forget is the persistent exposure to the vapor that comes from gasoline is toxic to your lungs, cause a myriad of cancers, gets infused into every cloth surface, contaminates anything edible inside your vehicle, and last but not least creates when containing inside a closed vehicle a potential explosive environment as the vapor is extremely flammable, while yea if you are rear ended by tractor trailer or large enough suv to break the rotopax gas will leak but at that point its the least of your worries as the damage done to your vehicle most likely has a far greater effect on your life and i would much rather have gas spilling on the outside than on the inside not to mention the thousands of miles you exposed yourself and everything you own to the gas vapor you put in your vehicle

Thank you, I would say for money it is probably the best and most useful addition to the jeep, i have changed many things about my set up in the last few years but have always kept this table and use it every time we camp

@samanthathomas2044 We always take the used oil to the local autoparts store. Depending on where u live if there is an advance auto, autozone, orielys, pepboys, carquest and some napa and walmart tire and auto will accept used oil and dispose of it for free.

Crazy how much everything has gone up

@@FischerJeepAdventures seriously…

It adds a 2 1/2 inch spacer between the stock bump stop location. I reused the stock ones they fit into the spacer just like they fit in the stock housing

Awesome! Thank you, it is a pretty cool camping trip when you string them all together, we had a great time!

At the recommendation of everyone since i changed out the plastic one, I did purchase the metal toyota oil filter housing, the dorman lasted three oil changes with no issues at all, but i found a toyota housing for $30.00 so I bought it and installed it on the last oil change, I guess everyone thinks the dorman aluminum is cheaper than toyota but they looked the same to me, anyway your right if you use the right tool to take it off and do not overtighten it should last

Thanks for the comment

Thank you, yes a regular suv can make it there are some spots where you will want to watch some of the rocks in the road, but its really a good road, there was Subaru out there doing just fine

Thanks Going to be our first time visit . Heard some people saying 4WD a must .

@1ivandang awd is fine, i would be cognizant of the weather, dry its an easy ride, if they have had rain I would think hard about it, the mud out there is like grease and it sticks to the tires and would easy get you into trouble with a stock suv

got it. greatly appreciate for the advice.

@1ivandang have fun the views are pretty amazing

Thanks I appreciate it, yes i have two nights in it so far and I really like it, I just moved to colorado and I want a couple more nights in it at elevation before I do the full review but so far I really like it!

Just a quick question will it lock like normal when in 4 low?

yes @@FischerJeepAdventures

I guess it was not for everyone

Thanks

Ok thanks for that thats great information to have, appreciate it!

Awesome, and thanks I am really excited about it! They are great trucks and the simplicity especially in the world electronics now a days is a breath of fresh air

Glad it helped with the decision, always best to avoid damaging something if you can help it, there are still Some good camp spots along the road to the left before you get to the rocks on the first part of the actual trail

You didnt there is not a way to lock the ratchet straps, plus they can be cut with a knife if people are determined, the lock on the rotopax is cheap insurance to make it difficult to take them, sure they can try and undo the straps and then get the assembly off and try and runaway with the entire mess, but i am going to make it hard, the harder things are to take the less likely the opportunistic criminal will act. So to your point yes they can still be taken but like I said I am gonna make it difficult to do so

I use a similar system... but with the much cheaper Long Haul cans from China. I put a lock on my strap but like he said, anyone can cut the strap or just siphon the gas. Siphoning the gas is how I'd prefer it to be stolen if it happens because that is the cheapest and easiest thing to replace. When it comes to this stuff, my thoughts are just to make it so some impulsive kid walking by can't take my shit. Anyone who comes to my jeep with a plan, I have very little defense from. I'm a believer that most of these crimes are targets of opportunity, and even a simple heavy-duty ziptie on the strap handle can make a kid walk away. If he can cut the tie, he can cut the strap. 🤷‍♂️

@CoreyBrass exactly!! Thanks

Awesome, sounds like a great truck!!

Was yours gray? Mine was the same and gray/silver. Loved it.

Its as rock solid as it was the day i put it on there, no shakes not loose and the hinges are not showing any wear at all

Indeed right! Its an old one but a good one, basic, simple, easy to work on and best of all the frame and all the undercarriage is rust free, most trucks this age on the east coast would be complete rust buckets unless really cared for

I still drive my land cruiser prado 90 series. Different body shell but the same chassis and suspension as your 3rd gen 4runner. It has the slower L series naturally aspirated idi diesel engine. It just doesn't wear out.

@hokz7283 awesoem that spunds like a great truck, those diesels are super nice!!

Thanks, I really like it, Yes if you lay them flat you can leave them in there, if you have real pillows they take up too much space an have to come out

Yes, really enjoying it!

@@FischerJeepAdventures That’s awesome. Great to see your wife involved too. Looking forward to the TJ’s transformation. Best of luck on this project.

@mikesters3532 thank you!

Wow thats really cool history thanks for sharing and yes it is frustrating for sure that a few carless folks ruin it for the vast majority of responsible people just put enjoying the trails.

Thanks for your criticism

@@FischerJeepAdventures nothing like sticking adhesive on mud 😂

@Madmike908 well it apparently was good enough because it is still where we installed months and many miles later

So we tried a couple things the brake line anchor brackets by teraflex didnt work well in my opinion, so all i did was bend the factory bracket and used two zip ties pulled tight by a zip tie gun and they have been that way for 10000 miles with no issues, my plan has been to just replace the zip ties each year and let it be, seems to work in my setup

We will definitely check them out thanks!

@@FischerJeepAdventures yes sir check them out their great lights

I am 6’9 240, and i fit pretty good, i cannot lay on my back stretched out but other wise i have plenty of room, being my size you learn to sleep on your side. But i can sit up and have space left its plenty roomy with me and my wife. Hope that helps?

It rides great soft when it needs to be but firm when you also need it to be, minimal body roll so it corners great, I would buy it again without hesitation!

Those are great options and i looked at all those as well. Settled on the AEV lift simply because of reputation and great reviews from those that had tested it and I was not disappointed with my choice the system is balanced and rides great, there are other kits that offer extra bits but with that i think you get an inferior coil spring and shock combo and thats truly where the ride and handling is

Hey thank you for checking out the video, i was setting almost 80 inches the side walls were touching the rails of the trailer but it fit and made it 1700 miles across the country with no issues. I did inflate the tires to the max cold psi the shrink the width ever so slightly but yes you will fit!

Thanks!

@giovannidigirolamo2740 absolutely

I am not a huge fan of just replacing parts. My guess is it is something electrical. Before replacing anything i would check to make sure all the fuses are pushed down all the way, make sure all the ground connections are tight, make sure the battery cables are tight, and i would inspect, clean, and reapply dielectric grease to them, just to make sure you have no moisture in the connectors, clear any codes with a code reader and see if that works first

Good i am glad it helped, i appreciate the skid plates but why they had to make it so hard to get them off is beyond me

If you change the oil like your supposed to with good quality oil and keep the airfilter clean I would say easily 150,000 to 200000 with any major issues, you will have normal maintenance items like with any engine, water pumps, plugs, coils, alternators, etc and depending on how hard you are on the motor maybe the turbo but I would doubt it. They are a solid platform

Thank you and great points for us to add

He says 1/2 wrench in the video at least 2 times. The video shows the oil filter box, which shows the brand and the part number

The lift is set for an overlanding load, so once you load up in the back and in my case as well put on a roof top tent it leveled out nicely, if your not going to do that and just want the lift a spacer may work to give you the stance your looking for

Thanks, the truck is plenty capable, but there are some narrow spots and tight spaces coming up from the campground along the shelf road sections, i think it would make it but it might test your comfort levels, the other issue i can see is traffic, it really would make that a challenge if you meet other vehicles as there are few areas to pass and those that do exist are really tight

Thank you! I am really excited about the process and what comes from it, I am learning as I go and have already learned so much

@@FischerJeepAdventures I’m on my 4th Wrangler. All started with a 2001 Jeep Wrangler TJ Sport. Learned a ton and put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into it. Eventually sold it and upgraded Wranglers since.

Depending on if you got the steering wheel recentered it could be right away like mine or i have heard like 10 to 20 miles of driving making sure your turning to allow the sensor to read normal again

Thanks, sadly we had to put him to sleep a few months ago, the vet found late stage cancer in him during a check up, he was a great dog and we had far too little time with him, Sam had more miles offroad in the jeep than alot of people do. He will be missed, as to the seatbelt harness, no i have never used one, I am not a fan of tying a dog down as i feel it makes them super uncomfortable in the vehicle. Again people have lots of opinions about that but this is mine, I have had dogs since I was a kid and they have always been free to move in my vehicles, it has worked for me and my puppies for the last 50 years.

@@FischerJeepAdventures I’m so sorry for your loss…I agree about the seat harness as I’m not one to tie a dog down either. I was curious if it protected the animal in the event of a crash. Take care!

@barpatron I am not sure anything will protect a dog in a crash, the harness just teathers the dog to the single point of the seat belt connector. Which effectiveless turns them into a whip. In my career in public safety I have never seen a dog die in a car crash, I am sure some first responders can disagree with their own experiences, more often than not they pop out and run away leaving the owner who does not fair as well. Animals are pretty resilient and dont suffer from the same tensing injuries humans do in car crashes and especially in todays air bag laden vehicles the passenger compartment is safer for animals who are not restrained more than ever. Just my .02

I always do 1500 for the first oil change, in my opinion it allows all of the factory break in lubricant in the motor to do its job. Just something I have always done and it seems to work. I am sure there are plenty of opinions out there but thats mine! Congrats on the purchase

@@FischerJeepAdventures Thanks!

Greg the ride is a little stiffer when empty but its not bad the progressive rate takes alot of the harshness out vs a single rate spring and when loaded it rides great which is what my intent was when getting them to make sure i have the best ride when loaded down but also had a good ride when empty and with my set up these springs do that. I would get them if you are considering them.

@@FischerJeepAdventures Thanks for the reply. My Jeep seems to be getting heavier. I was looking into the MetalCloak skid plates.

I used the factory floor bolts just counter sunk into the wood so the heads were flush

So I have them on the sport setting as i prefer the stiffer ride that give move dampening on the trail and have found over time i actually prefer it on the street as well, to do it over, bang for your buck i would buy them again same model same setup as it works great for what i do with the jeep, if money was not an option i would buy the new 3.3 fast adjust piggy back shocks because it really gives you the most adjustability for DD, loaded un loaded, gravel roads, wash boards, trails, light rock crawling/ real off camber terrain. But after several thousand miles offroad on the falcon 2.1s i am really happy with them
