I would advise against MRE's while they are convienet, thy are bulky and heavy. They come with a lot of crap you don't need, like toilet paper and Tabasco sauce. Mountain house meals are great, pack smaller and lighter, but you do need a way to boil water for them. They are probably better...

The perfect trailer is hard! I want something small and light weight, I would love a tear drop with a roof top tent for when the kids are bigger. The wife wants heat, a toilet and a shower. She wants the comforts of home but with a better view. I just want some place to sleep and someplace to...

I have no idea what that is. Jet engine for propulsion in really low traction situations? Exhaust tip that makes it sound like something out of Top Gun? Flux capacitor 3.0?

A great example is the wrangler its self. Look at the original CJ, compare it to a JK. It's insane how much bigger it has gotten.

I have something similar, I call it my 48hr bag. It fits in a stiff sack and goes with me whenever I go hiking or anything where the tires leave the pavement. I'm a SAR volunteer and the idea is that as long as I have that bag I'm good for at least 48hours in the wilderness alone. Your list...

I wired the rear facing auxiliary lights and the license plate light on my Jeep while wearing my daughter. We have a bunch of different wraps and carriers for the baby. The wraps seem to work better with new borns. We have stretchy wraps and woven wraps that don't stretch, then we have carriers...

I have a 3yo and a 3 month old. The baby was 6 weeks old on her first trip, in November, in Washington. We rented a small travel trailer for that trip because she was so small, but come summer she will be in the tent like her brother was at 6 months. Like everyone else said, big tent, lots pf...

I agree, I'm generally not into what is super popular, I like having a unique rig, it's cool when people ask where I got my tire carrier and I reply that I made it, I like the reaction. Plus welding is a ton of fun. I am jealous of rigs that can run 35's with just bolt on mods though. I'll never...

I was down in the Fresno area for work. I went on trips to Yosemite and Seqouia/kings canyon every weekend. I figured that would give me access to some nice streams to try until I went to buy a license and al last had a heart attack. It was still a good time though without the fishing. I was...

I took mine off the lift gate of my jeep and re-applied it as the center cap for my spare, I used the same 3M double sided tape it came with. I bought a roll of it at Home Depot. 7lb strength I think, cut a couple strips, covered the back and trimmed the excess.

Nope, Washington. I spent 5 weeks in California last summer and took my rod. Never used it though because the price of an out of state fishing license is insane!

@MarkW you are hurting for aftermarket support for sure, good thing is you don't need much! @binsfejo has so much aftermarket he can almost buy a lift kit at Walmart. Must be nice! I think even if I owned a wrangler I would still do diy stuff like this, I enjoy it. Maybe I should've been a welder.

I test fit my mock up on the jeep. Seems like everything should work. Now I just have to order the metal.

You're van is awesome! I love how family focused it is. There's nothing cooler than when my 3 yo son "helps" me on my Jeep! I think taking kids camping and exploring is greatest thing to do as a parent. There are so many studies about the positive affects the outdoors have on kids and their...

That turned out pretty sweet!

I love stickers! I have since I was a kid and it just got worse once I bought a rig. Here is what I have so far, it will only get worse the longer I own the Jeep!

I've been quoted at $197 for the steel cut, I've ordered shackle mounts for $50 and some fog lights too that will bring the total to about $300 for the whole project. I thought about just ordering the kit form G&G, but I really wanted to support my local metal shop. They are great people and are...

I liked my Colorado a lot, but the 5 cylinder lacked the power to cross mountains on a freeway at speed if I had the bed full of camping gear. The H3 shares a platform with the Colorado, but comes with so much more off road prowess. I looked at H3's again before buying my Jeep, but the car seats...

Nice! Enjoy the parts availability. I'm only slightly envious.

When I was rotating my tires, with one wheel off the ground, I was able to spin it enough by hand that the vari-loc kicked in and I couldn't move it any more. I was able to break torque on my lug nuts using it. From what I've read the variloc only works up to a 32" tire, after that there is too...
