I have a 100 with an ARB, and I am bringing an 80 online with an ARB. I’m about to get a Badlands Apex 12K for the 80.
But I would like to be able to move the winch between the two trucks if that is possible. Has anyone wired up a winch with Anderson plugs or similar to be able to move it...
Yall's Mud page is getting as bad as ours (ha). We all had a good time at the Veteran's Day Ride again this year. If any of you want to come down to B'ham on 12/16 you are more than welcome to join us!
2023 DLC Christmas Party
I basically recycle this post every year. Not much to change. Same drill.
It's that time again! DLC Christmas Party will be Saturday, 12/16/2023 at 6:00pm in Cahaba Heights. The theme is "Brisket, Bourbon, and Beer." Featured drink will be Old Fashioned, or will take suggestions.
Families...
Another resto-mod. Starting this thread to document (for me mostly) everything I am doing. And since I have less than one banana skills, I will certainly hit dead-ends and have questions; help always appreciated. Maybe this will help when I sell it one day (lol). I have had five land cruisers...
It's that time again! DLC Christmas Party will be Saturday, 12/10/2022 at 6:00pm in Cahaba Heights. The theme is "Brisket, Bourbon, and Beer." Featured drink will be Old Fashioned.
Families including children are invited. We will have the meat and the featured drink and I will get some hotdogs...
I have purchased a set of Forerrunner's heavy duty battery cables for my dead 1985 project. Very nice. My truck is not running yet, but I can tell the fusible link is shot because the previous owner bypassed it (at least to the alternator). I have secured a new fusible link, and I would like to...
DLC Christmas Party is scheduled for Saturday, December 18, 2021 at 6:00pm. Families, significant others are welcome! I will have some type of meat, Dianne will have some type of sweets and a special "event beverage," otherwise potluck. We will have plates and silverware.
Dirty Santa: please...
"Charge paddles! Clear!"
A friend's spouse saw this as she was driving down the road east of B'ham. It has been sitting in this spot dead for 10 years. No carb on the 2F. Gas tank is shot (yes, the recalled one put on in 1991). Yes, it gets worse as you get closer. Yes, rust. Looks like about...
Christmas Party will be 12/05/2020 at 6:30pm. Mark your calendars! We will have pork tenderloin and rice. Bring anything else you want to eat or drink. Babies and kids welcome. I will try to find all the firearms and put them in the safe or at least unload them. Depending on the weather we will...
I became a member of the 200 club this week, which forces the sale of my daily-driven 2005.
The truck lived in Oregon from birth to 2018, when I brought it to Alabama. Rather than say "rust-free," or "no rust," I will say "I don't see any rust anywhere, but come on and see for yourself."...
I decided I need a trailer. After some research, I picked up this beauty from RRAD in Hooks, TX. Drove it home in a tornado.
M101A2 retired from the Air Force (so probably used for moving espresso machines and air conditioners, croquet sets, etc. (ha)). It was originally camo, but it has...
*Update Below*
DixieLand Cruisers will be going on an extreme overlanding adventure during the MLK weekend, January 17-20, 2020.
In case you missed the inaugural 1st Annual CCWS, check out last years thread...

I am thinking of getting an Oztent Foxwing for tailgating and overlanding. I could not find these questions answered so far.
1. When it is deployed does it interfere with the rear hatch opening on a 100?
2. Will it easily attach to an OEM 100 rack, or do I need to be looking at upgrading my...
Checking interest in a day trip for Saturday, September 21, 2019. Not a big football day. Auburn is off, Alabama plays Southern Miss at home. Thinking about a day trip to Talladega National Forest, Little River Canyon, or ???. Families, friends, significant others, all are invited - run what you...
Hot South:
We are going on a little late-summer excursion to eastern Tennessee on the weekend of 8/23-25.
Trail Ride 8/23-25
Right now we've got about 4-5 trucks going. No real schedule; just an easy weekend. We are leaving Trussville at about 11:30 on Friday 8/23. We could meet you at the...
Coming off the success of the Georgia trip last month, we will now attack the eastern Tennessee mountains. Leave Friday 8/23, head north, avoid Atlanta, destination TBD but somewhere in the vicinity of Tellico Plains, Murphy, Tail of the Dragon, etc. Come back Sunday 8/25.
Who is in?
I have an aversion to camping. That said, with all of these events we are going to, I feel I must camp. I am now looking at shelter options. These SUV tent things look like a good idea at least in theory. I searched the site and looks like people are having good luck with them.

I thought I would post a navigation "build" thread to chronicle my recent efforts in putting together a navigation system for my 2002 100. Our club in Birmingham has been attending some cruiser events across the country, and we are also starting to cover the many backroads across the great state...
