    I barely work on my Bronco these days.

    Recovery Gear - Basics

    I do not… it was just a 3/16”” plate that was 14” deep by the width of the frame rails… it bolts to the same place as the bumper and fits between the plastic bumper and the frame rails.

    Recovery Gear - Basics

    That’s the problem with Smittybuilt… they need to be used… a lot… just having it sit there is what destroys them. You never heard of MM? They have been in the winch game for over 30 years, they are the only winch supplier for the US military in official capacity. Mile-Marker is also the only...

    Recovery Gear - Basics

    This isn’t just a Warn problem… it’s a problem with any modern day electric winch. For our 4Runner I made a hidden winch mount and use the OEM bumper. The cost of the mount was close to $100 in materials.

    Recovery Gear - Basics

    I will disagree coming from a professional recover background… the only winch I have never had fail me is a Mile-Marker hydraulic winch… they are also the only 100% serviceable winch on the market.

    Recommendations for a fab shop?

    You are located deep in the heart of “Jeep” specialty off-road shops. Put a blind fold on spin three times and walk a 1/4 mile and you’ll be at a fab shop… ok maybe not that many there… but my point is there are a lot of shops specializing in off-road fabrication in your area. Every thing from...

    Recovery Gear - Basics

    You want at least a 3 ton rated Come-Along. I haven’t ever seen a come-along with anything other than steel cable or chain used. The come-along body and handle needs to be made out of a cast material (the stamped steel ones are great for stretching fences, but suck in recovery situations; I...

    Gear to recieve Alerts?

    I’m pretty sure the Icom Ic-7100 has the ability to use tone alerts by location if a person has the optional gps antenna. I know there is a setting for WX Alerts in the menus, I have never tried myself because I don’t have the gps antenna.

    Featured vs Plan Tab? OB1(Exp Tier) and Resource Map (overland bound.com Map)

    You have your settings correct. In “Featured” tab, you should see the trails and not the trail head (Jeep Icon). The Trail Head Icon shows up in planning mode and selecting the trail head brings up the information card where the track can then be seen. Using the “online map” I am assuming you...

    Phone and tablet mounts

    I started using QuadLock mounts for my bicycle last year. After finding out how secure the mount is, I have added their mounts to all of my rigs, and have upgraded to the new MagCase. Combined with the Lido IC7100 mount for my armature radio, this is by far the best setup I have yet to come a...
