Are you allowed to camp with your vehicle there?

AOAA is in Coal Township, sort of midway between Harrisburg and Scranton...a little south of Rt 80 and west of Rt 81.

Great info - thanks! What would you estimate the percentage of the Northern section that's off paved roads?

Posting a video of my first real off-roading experience at AOAA (in central PA) for the OK4wd 2018 4x4 Tour event on April 29th. I'm driving a 2018 Ram Rebel (and following a friend in his Rebel for much of the footage). The truck did really well - most of the other full size rigs in our group...

A few new additions to the truck... White Knuckle Off-Road Rock Sliders - I got these mounted on the truck last Friday, and they proved essential while off-roading at AOAA last Sunday. They bolt to the frame, so they're very solid (you can use them as a jack point); the extensions work great...

Looks to me like there's no argument to be had here, just a misunderstanding... I (and I imagine others) would be more than happy to do the following: • Contribute some money in respect of the great work done to map out the trails and work with the agencies to spread good faith toward the...

Cool - just joined the FB group

Rambox for me...

Thank you!

Here's what I came up with for on-board air... Ramboxes are one of my favorite things about this truck; I use them almost every day for one reason or another, so I was a little reluctant to give up the space for the ARB CKMTA12 twin compressor. But in reality, it doesn't take up much room, and...

Exactly...intended for sticky-fingered opportunists, like crooked valets and parking lot attendants, shady dealership staff, etc.

I considered a couple other options, but I think Tuffy is the way to go. You can spend a little less and get Mopar locks for the OE lids, but the lids are so flimsy I'm sure I could rip one open with one hand regardless of a lock. Or you could spend (a LOT) more and go with the Lock'er Down...

Next up are some minor enhancements to the interior. Admittedly, these aren't particularly "overland" focused, but I thought I'd include them anyway. Still in the works are a couple other interior mods, including.... a hard-wired dash cam (I installed one but it was terrible, so swapping it...

And some more exterior mods I've been wanting to do pretty much since I got the truck 4 months ago... Amp Research Bed Step: A simple mod that works great for climbing into the bed with the tailgate up or down... And now I'm not jealous of the Ford guys with the step/handle that pull out from...

Here's the next exterior mod... RetraxPro MX tonneau: I researched tonneau covers for a long time before finally pulling the trigger. It was down to Retrax and Truck Covers USA, as both are compatible with Ramboxes; both are retractable (and therefore can be used with a bed rack); and both...

I'll certainly follow-up if there's any change in performance of this kit down the road. From what I've gathered, LEDs don't match-up well to Ram projector headlights. They're not nearly as bright as HIDs, and many kits aren't able to produce a focused beam.

Over the last couple weeks I've been progressing the build with a bunch of exterior mods - some quite minor, and some more involved. One of the weak points of the truck I noticed right away was the lighting. Coming from vehicles with bright white HIDs, the old school yellowish halogens were...

After almost a week on the new wheels and tires, I am still very happy with them. The tires are a bit stiffer than the OE Toyo ATs, but not enough to be objectionable. They're both 10-ply E-rated tires, but the Nittos have a reputation for a very robust sidewall, so it makes sense that they...

The Rebel is already pretty capable off road, with a 5.7l Hemi V8, 3.92 rear and LSD, 33" tires, and a BW 44-45 locking center diff, so the primary focus in terms of capability for me is tires. I upgraded the stock Toyo Open Country A/T tires with a set of 305/70-17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers...

Since picking up my Ram Rebel back in December 2017, I've been quietly pondering plans for mods. Since I've found others' build threads so interesting - as well as helpful in determining my own build road map - I thought I'd share my journey so far, and some plans that are currently in the...
