    WK2 Overland ORA2 Skids

    I am toying with trading the JK in for WK2 Overland with the ORA2 package because I do a lot of long distance road driving and I tow. I have tried, with no avail, to determine what kind of skid protection the package includes. I read a thread on the Jeep forums that left me thoroughly confused...

    Legs for Your Panels?

    Has anyone come up with a cheap, easy way to add legs to your panels? Solar Blvd has legs for sale, but they are not cheap. I must be using the wrong search terms for my web searches, because I come up with very little in terms of solar panel legs.

    Time for New Tires

    I am going to be buying tires over the next 6 months. I am currently running BFG M/T 255/75/17. Overall, I have been pleased with their performance, but I can't help but wonder if the Cooper A/T3 or S/T Maxx tires might not be a better match. I am leaning towards the A/T3's and would love other...

    Transporting Solar Panels

    So, I picked up 2 of the 100 watt Renogy solar panels from Amazon at what seems to be a very good price. The panels did not come with legs or any storage case. What are you using for legs and transporting your panels? Would folding brackets works as legs? The mounting brackets for solar panels...

    JK/Gobi Roof Rack/ RTT

    I love my Gobi rack, both functionally and aesthetically. However, getting the tent mounted is a real pain. Perhaps someone has found an easier way to mount? The problem is how hard it is to the mounting hardware, and I have pretty small hands, even for a woman. I am going to be mostly...

    Portable Battery Box Ideas?

    I am going to tackle my battery box for my trailer this weekend. Ideally, I would have a scenario where I could bring the batteries inside to charge, so, if I was staying in a hotel or cabin, i could charge the battery overnight. I have the following already: 6 way marine panel Master on/off...

    Nemo Strato Loft

    I am a side sleeper and have always felt somewhat claustrophobic in my EMS mummy bag. Last year, I had fits trying to keep my pillow in one spot in the RTT. So, I decided to look for something different. Enter the Nemo bags. They have 2 good bags for side sleepers. After reading a number of...

    Let's see your on-board water set-ups!

    I am getting ready to begin my M416 build and want to include an RV tank, water pump, and an inlet/quick connect to use with my Camp chef Triton. It got me thinking that some of you have probably learned a few tricks when it comes to connecting all of this stuff (where you mounted your motor...

First, I was getting my winch ready for spring/summer and had it disconnected from my batttery this weekend. When I reconnected everything, I inadvertanly left the winch ground wire disconnected...

    Rent Max Trax IN SE Utah or NE AZ?

    I make it out west once a year. Truthfully, my Jeep does not see a ton of off-road adventure other times of year because I truly got it primarily to travel to places i could not access otherwise, mostly in the Southwest. I would love to use it more like this on the east coast, but limited time...

    JKJenn's M416 Build

    I picked up an M416 last Friday from ExPo member Rightovercrest. It has already been modded to add a tailgate, although I want to find a way to fix the gap. The wiring has already been converted over to 7 pin. It is, essentially, usable as is, which is a major bonus. Here are pics that were on...

    M416 Mods for the DIY Inept

    I love the idea of DIY mods. They really showcase the talent and resorucefulness that people bring to overlanding. But, what about we who do not have the time nor talent for mods? For example, I love the idea of a slide out drawer for my Coleman Roadtrip grill. I an even envision how it would...

    Reinstalling Rear Seat

    Last year I pulled the rear seat out of my JKU but since I am picking up an M416, I would like to put the back seat in again. Removing it was extremely painful. The dealer had to pop loose the last 2 bolts - they must use some incredible torque to install those! The 2 door JK seats are reported...
