Every great adventure begins with a properly prepared vehicle, including navigation, communication, and emergency equipment. Beyond that, the 4WD can be customized to the needs of the individual and their intended overland journey. Any great overlanding platform starts with quality tires in an appropriate tread pattern for the terrain. Next comes a suspension configured to support the intended equipment and occupant load. The final critical consideration is proper loading and lashing to ensure that all equipment is safely secured and that emergency supplies are easily accessible.
During my recent trip to Jeep Beach, I had the opportunity to meet with Jacob Delacruz and Adam Casto about their impressive Jeep builds, both featuring the well-respected Hankook Dynapro MT2 tires.
