I would love to do some meet ups! Seems like OB doesn’t have a lot of participation in this area.

I used 3” spacers to clear the factory jeep wheels. If you used aftermarket wheels you could probably use 2.5”

Got my fridge slide and 12v outlet installed in the bed. I am probably going to get a bigger fridge now that I have more room than I did in the 4runner.

I am interested in going. The group I am part of just did a clean up in the Martha Sundquist State forest. It was a blast and we rode some great trails. Hurricane Creek and Buzzard Roost.

I have not had any issues with the trailer so far. I use the tent mostly with the trailer still hooked to the vehicle and have had no stability issues. I would recommend stabilizing the trailer for use unhooked. I have not had a problem but could see situations where I could. I have run Imogene...

I kept the original axle for now. Going to see how it does before changing it further.

Thanks! I still have more to do to it. I just drove to Oxford Al and back with no issues. I also ran 600-1 and 600-2 in the Talladega National Forest pulling the trailer. The tires are 30".

They are out there. Just don’t get in a hurry.

Emphasis is on cheap today! Repurposed an old tj wheel hub to make a spare tire mount.

I would be interested in a ride sometime in the spring. Please keep me informed if you guys do something. I am in Middle TN but don't mind driving.

I have added a battery set up, water tank and pump, and a diesel tent heater for cold weather camping. Its coming along nicely. My wife bought me a camp griddle for Christmas and as soon as I get a fridge I will make a slide out and covers for them.

Got my ics fab mount, gmrs radio, go pro, and i-pad mount for Christmas

Even with tent on it I can’t even tell it’s behind the 4runner. Way lighter than our pop up camper.

I picked up a good condition used 4x6 utility trailer for $100 and turned it into a camping trailer to put my RTT on. Started with cutting off factory fenders, flipping the axle, and building the rack.

So I’m almost a year in and have made some progress. Stiil a ways to go. Ditched the running boards, VOR wheels and 33” M/T’s, 3” Old Man Emu/Bilstein lift, Victory rear bumper w/ tire carrier, and 3rd row delete!
