Welcome from Austin, TX. Be sure to do a write up on your trailer. Love home build stuff, always very popular on the Forum.

Welcome from Austin, TX. Loved my XJ, great rig. Enjoy you trip in January, be sure to share your experiences when you get back.

Yes, that exactly what I did. I changed out the springs, and nothing more. Coil springs don't break the bank. It's the other components, especially the shocks, that cost the most. as long as you aren't going much taller, you can change coils, and try to optimize your ride quality...

I removed the Rock Krawler 2.5 Pro system from my JKU. The spring rates are not oriented to Overlanding. I much prefer the control arm drop brackets over longer control arms. The geometry is better. You will get much less vibration transferred with drop brackets, vs longer control arms. This...

Welcome from Austin, TX. Great rig, I loved my XJ.

So many to choose from, but the most recent, is my USB power hub. https://www.rammount.com/part/RAM-234-HUB1U I can charge all of the stuff I use around camp. Since more and more stuff charge via USB, it gets used all the time.

This is a recovery method I have never used. I hope I never have to.

Welcome from Austin, TX. My best advice: don't let the vehicle hold you back from getting on the trail. Nature is the classroom. Get out on the open road, and start the adventure. You will learn what needs to be changed on the vehicle to improve you experience. This will prevent spending...

Welcome from Austin, TX. Don't worry about your skills off road. Just take things slow. Their are great videos and books to teach the many skills you will want to develop, but nothing beats real world experience. Just get out on the trail, and start the edventure.

She loves Overlanding. She takes care of most of the planning of the trips. I'm in charge of getting us lost, and pursuing unplanned adventures.

Not a fan. Not sure it would be a good Overland rig.
