Building an Off-Grid Hunting Cabin on landlocked property
มุมมอง 7Kหลายเดือนก่อน
Join me on an exciting journey as I build an off-grid hunting cabin on my secluded, landlocked property. The property is landlocked by hundreds of acres of public land, with no established road access, so everything is hauled back by pack, sled or bike. In this video, you’ll see the entire process from clearing the land to a tour of the almost finished cabin (when is a cabin ever finished?). Wh...

1983 Jeep CJ7 Propane Conversion - Gotpropane.com
มุมมอง 6K14 ปีที่แล้ว
A short video of my jeep running after converting to propane. The timing and idle still need to be tuned, but I am very happy with the conversion so far. The kit was provided by GotPropane.com I decided to do the conversion because of the steep angles of rock crawling / hill climbs, and the issues that I had with a carburated engine in these scenarios. The propane conversion was attractive as i...

      I agree... Maybe for my next build, I'd do a full wrap around. With this one being so remote, I minimized the size and materials. It was enough work getting the materials back for the small deck that is there today! ;-)

    We have deer blinds in Michigan and I noticed you have not treated the outside wood yet, the best thing to do is either brush on or use a cheap deck sprayer and spray a mix of 80 percent used engine oil and 20 percent kerosene or diesel fuel on it. Preserves the wood and keeps all bugs wasps critters away from it for 3-4 years. Smells for about 6 weeks so I recommend doing in the spring. Also I did not get a look at the underside of your floor bit I recommend putting 2” foam board insulation up there and wrapping it in screen.

    • @4x4tweak
      @4x4tweak หลายเดือนก่อน

      The outside is treated plywood, so should last from the elements pretty well, but I do plan on coating it at some point. Need a few good years for it to dry out so it will take coat good. Regarding the floor, you are right, it does need more insulation. Right now, it's just a roll of foil bubble insulation right under the subfloor. Was thinking of the rigid foam board. Have stayed away from fiberglass in case there is ever moisture.

      @ I let my rough cut lumber blinds season 1 year before applying the used engine oil and it’s awesome I get no wasps or ants or mice or any porcupines everything leaves it alone.

    Just saw this video! Don't know how I missed it. Thank you for doing it so we can hear it instead of music:) I hope this is still running strong and continues to for many years to come. I love the Jeep 2 Barrel propane kits because of how much stronger they run and how smooth they idle. The Weber Carburetor and Carter Carburetor both do a poor job of letting these engines run to their full potential. They ran as well or better than any fuel injection conversion. The oil stays clean for much longer as well. Thanks again, Cary @ Gotpropane.com

    It would be the cost of a second selnoid, high pressure hose and fittings... Not sure on the cost, but I think if you give the guys at Got Propane a call they could tell you. You would also need another set of mounting brackets for the tank.

  • @4x4tweak
    @4x4tweak 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Sure thing! I am still running this almost 2 years later and love the conversion. This is a full LPG conversion, no option to run gasoline. The only issue that I have had is making sure that I have enough fuel onboard (ran out a few times on the trail). To remedy this, I now carry two tanks with me. I am looking at running a second line to the second tank and putting another fuel selnoid in so that I can switch tanks with a flip of a switch. -Rob

  • @4x4tweak
    @4x4tweak 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @asssface2000 - There is more then just hoses, fittings and a mixer. There is also fuel shut-offs, the injector, adaper, new silicone gaskets, tank mounting brackets, etc. Also, Cory the owner provides great advice and support when making the modifications. Show me a parts list where you can get the kit for well under $850 not using something that is cobbled together. I looked up the parts that I needed seperatly and was over the cost of the kit.

  • @asssface2000
    @asssface2000 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    so you paid like $850 for some hoses and fittings and a mixer? seems like a rip off.

  • @4x4tweak
    @4x4tweak 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    The install did not take very long. I did it in a few stages, but I think less then 4 hours total. Very easy install, just think though and plan before you do the install. Not sure on the MPG as this is a trail rig, but the response is great and I would say that there feels like horsepower increase from the seat of your pants.
