    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    If you keep them rotated, they aren't bad at all. If you don't rotate them religiously they do get noisy. The set on my Silverado have close to 40k on them. I have been lax about rotating them and they are the loudest set I have. They aren't horrible, just noisier than the other sets. The set on...

    I like them well enough that I have them on my XJ, Samurai, 4wd Silverado and my wife's 4wd Suburban. For dollars spent they can't be beat.

    Falken Wildpeak AT3. They work very well.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Put 300 miles on it on the South Carolina Adventure Route. And almost got it stuck. SC red clay is the worst. Pretty happy with how the rock sliders keep most of the mud under the XJ.

    On/Off road tires recommendations

    I run Falken Wildpeak ATs on everything from a Samurai to a Suburban, as well as my Silverado and XJ. By far the best AT tire I've ever run. Outstanding on and off road traction and surprisingly quiet if you keep them rotated.

    SVO ....Small Vehicle Overlanding

    I went from a Tin Top to a XJ Cherokee. I kept the Tin Top though. It's still one of my favorites and it gets used locally fairly often.

    Newbie. What would you add to my truck?

    Load up the camping gear and hit the road. You really don't need a lot to get off the beaten path. Now, the want list... That could go on forever.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Today the XJ got some rocker protection. I had planned to build a set but found these too cheap to justify the expense and time it would take to weld up my own.

    Lets see some trail photos!

    An older picture but still a fun trip in the Francis Marion National Forest.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Figured out mounting for the light the wife gave me for Christmas. Should do the trick when a little extra light is needed.

    Snorkels?

    I installed one this fall. It is well sealed against water intrusion from end to end. But my XJ isn't sitting on 6" of lift, it's on 2" and the factory intake was only about 30" off the ground. At least one water crossing on my planned spring trip can be over 30" of water depending on rainfall...

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Nothing on the XJ today beyond replacing a broken oil cap. I did change the shifter bushings and pin on the Samurai though. It's nice to be able to get to reverse without punching the passenger in the thigh.

    Loaded it down with firewood to haul home.

    Where did you install your OB emblem?

    Finally installed mine on the XJ. Drivers side front fender. It's almost the exact same color as the XJ. Figured it would drive me nuts not having one on the passenger side so I ordered another to put over there.

    This afternoon's project was the front shocks on my XJ.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    To my ring? Nothing. To my son's? An oil pan gasket, 2" lift, and 31x10.5x15s.

    Gearing up! What do I need?

    I did the dual battery setup on my XJ with a 100ah AGM battery to run the fridge and such. You might also look into something like a Jackery or other portable battery system. A Jackery 1000 would run a fridge for several days without charging and can also be charged off the vehicle during the...

    Hanging cook table

    I like that. I might have to steal that idea.
