Although I have never owned a Defender, I have owned both Land Rovers and Jeep Wranglers. The wife and I love different things about both. In my experience, although we had mechanical issues with both, the Jeeps have been more reliable. The Land Rovers had mechanical issues more frequently, both...

Excellent write up. Thanks for the link. Looks like I have a small project to keep me busy this Saturday. Thanks for the advice, it is much appreciated!

Very awesome photos! Thanks for sharing the link!

In my humble opinion, there are certain items on your vehicle you should never skimp on. Tires are one of them. These are the only contact you have to the ground and affect not only your traction, but braking as well. This is probably the single most important item on your rig. Without a good...

Good advice here in my opinion. I would go with sliders with steps built in if you can. The protection they offer is important. Ditto on the Smittybilt armor. I personally would not trust cheap Chinese sliders to protect my vehicle. If you can afford it, buy good quality stuff and buy once. Or...

If you haven't already done so, I would invest in good recovery equipment. A good tow strap, snatch strap, tree saver, snatch block and a good pair of leather gloves can go a long way. If you already have that, Id say get the tires you want. If you have the money now and don't, you will probably...

Awesome pictures. I am considering adding the AEV snorkel and AEV heat reduction hood to my Jeep. I am curious though, what else do you guys do to your rigs to waterproof them and submerge them that deep? Shouldn't vehicle electronics be a concern? What else do I need to do? After the recent...

Our Land Rover had leather heated seats. I treated them once a week, when I detailed the rig (OCD I know). We didn't have an issue with cracking for a long time. Eventually they will crack, but it took years. They were easy to clean up, if you could clean them up in a hurry. Kids can still cause...

That is a beautiful truck!

A few random shots offroad.

Gorgeous pictures and great adventure! Thanks for sharing!

Great story! looks like an awesome adventure!

Thank you! I appreciate it! The color is Granite Crystal Metallic.

My rig has had some slight changes. I briefly had it on AEV Pintler wheels with 35" BFG KM2s. I decided I like the Fuel Trophy wheels I originally had on it better, so I mounted the BFGs on them instead. I added the EVO Gate Plate and secured the spare in the cargo area. A few pics on the...

:drool: I sure hope someone picks up this project from you and makes it available for purchase!

Very Nice! When I got rid of my CJ7 I was actually looking for a CJ8. I run the jump seat in my JKU the same way as your Scrambler was.

Thanks for the response. I would love to have a top like this, and I hope someone is smart enough to pick this up from you. I run a jump seat in the back of my Unlimited and this top with the barn door, as I am sure many would agree, is perfect! You sir, do some outstanding work. Ill be keeping...

Please tell me more about the JK Unlimited Safari Cab. Is this something that is going to be available?

As mentioned, I'm very anxious to see the bigger sizes. I'm trying to pin down a tire for a long trip I have coming up and need it to be winter rated. I've had great luck with the KOs in snow and ice on both my Jeep and Land Rover. I think this new one will be so much better.

Bummer, I'm looking forward to seeing the bigger sizes and actual measurements of the 37s. BFGs typically run small, so I am curious to see how close to a 315 Duratrac they come.
