  • Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance August 4th and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

    Factory tow point or use hitch?

    If you have ever seen a hitch with a bent pin in it, or even worse tried to get a bent pin out of a hitch... Yeah, you would never use a hitch for recovery. So, I would say go with the tow points. They should be a better choice in my opinion.

    Recovery Kits

    There is always an exhaustive list of potential items to bring... And everyone always has a slightly different list of what they want and what they consider quality gear... So, I won't go into my list of gear... Most of it has already been put out there. What I will add is this. And I've said...

    Ohio Roll-Call!

    I would probably have a blast... The wife and kids probably not as much... But... We are heading to Peru only a week or so after that... So, it's a definite no for us.

    I'll be coming up your way, not this summer but next... I hope to see your progress... Looks really good so far.

    I'd love to have you along. Much safer with more vehicles... What part of upstate are you at? My brother lives just outside of Warrensburg, NY...

    Mounting a HiLift and a PulPal on a Jeep JKU

    Agreed. I've seen that happen before. So, the hood was never really an option for me.

    Mounting a HiLift and a PulPal on a Jeep JKU

    I've never needed bigger than a 48"

    Ohio Roll-Call!

    that would be awesome... But the weekend after that I'm heading to Peru for a couple of weeks... I would have 0 chance of convincing the wife on that one.

    Mounting a HiLift and a PulPal on a Jeep JKU

    And here it is all installed. I've got a cable lock that will secure them both to the tailgate...

    If money was no object...

    While I like the look of many of the rigs... I'd go only a little bit larger than what I have... Thinking something like this. Alum skids, 6.4 L Hemi so I could run 37" without any problems, portal axels, I'd look at fitting a flip Pac on the back. I'd have way too much fun modifying it

    The plan for us is to camp as much as possible above the tree line... Not in campgrounds... We will see how that will work out :-) And, the more the merrier. Well almost. This will be kid friendly.

    Ohio Roll-Call!

    I'm thinking this summer it will be a must do. As much as I'd like to get out this time of year. It's always hit or miss...

    AEV Snorkel Install - 2008 JKU

    Looks nice... That first cut into the hood is always the hardest!

    PM me the dates and we will see if that works for everyone else. I'm ok with late July.

    Mounting a HiLift and a PulPal on a Jeep JKU

    Yeah, I've seen them on hoods before. I'm not a fan of it... It would work... But not for the pull pal. I'm probably just going with the AEV mount...

    Roof top tent vs ground tent

    The way I look at it... This all boils down for me to this... RTT - no RTT... Happy Wife - Not happy Wife....

    Will I hate not having a winch for Overland?

    So, let me give everyone reading this thread a preface... If you read my posts often you will see I have been doing this for many years... With my family in tow. And all across this country and a few others. I'm not saying I'm the guru of off road driving. I would never say that. What I am...

    Will I hate not having a winch for Overland?

    I'm, a bit surprised at the people above... We are talking about recover tools... Good "trip planning" and " going too far" really have nothing to do with it. Both of those are subjective... No one ever has in their trip plan for them to slip into a ditch or come across a tree blocking their...
