If I were you, I'd get the premium membership to Gaia GPS and load up the MVUM, Public Lands, and Satellite with Labels layers and go exploring. There's no definite trail to go down, but it's also mostly gravel, sand, and clay roads throughout. There's a couple of members on here that could give...

Did those other two go with you? They must not have been as adventurous as you if they did! :tonguewink: Think it's too sloppy for a 4wd Grand Cherokee on 33" Cooper AT3s?

The future wife and I are headed to Desoto NF. We've been a couple times for back packing and kayaking, but never for overlanding.

That's all the encouragement I need! Just got back from the store with the weekend's rations. I'm glad I checked my CB when I got home, because it looks like I left the batteries in it last time I used it. It's corrosion city over here! Absolutely ruined the battery compartment and there's no...

Alright, who is doing the rain dance? Desoto NF is showing scattered thunderstorms all week and through the weekend

Pm sent!

Ah darn, that sand looked like it would be fun to try to traverse. Right now it's just my Jeep GC and my fiance going, so I probably shouldn't be looking for stuff to get stuck in since I don't have a winch yet

What trail(s) are yall on in these pictures? I'd like to check that out this weekend

Weather permitting, the future wife and I are planning on hitting up Desoto this weekend. We'll be headed that way after she gets off of work on Friday and most likely going to camp at Fairley Bridge landing/cg that night. Not sure how long we're gonna be out there, but we're planning on doing...

I'm sure it happened during the cutting of the top strut studs since that was the only time they were near each other during the install. We used a lift so we were able to have both sides completely torn down at the same time. After looking at them side by side, it was pretty obvious that there...

Oh boy do I have some updates! So the popping noise was the small clamp that holds the CV boot to the shaft tapping on the fork of the strut. When it got eventually knocked off of the boot, the boot slid forward and got trapped between the spinning axle and the stationary strut and ripped it...

So for a while now the OB app has been running REAL slow both on mobile data and on wifi, but I had dismissed that as poor app optimization that would improve with updates. But now I'm finding that even the browser version is rather slow. I'm guessing that with the large influx of users, either...

Alright fellas, I've got some bad news. I'm afraid I cannot go on the trip this weekend due to a family emergency. My future FIL had a stroke so we will be spending our vacation with him instead. Sorry everyone!

I'm full on willing to do a custom solution, im just not sure how I want to approach it. I was thinking about a bracket that goes on the side of the cargo rack, but then there wouldn't be room for a top mounted awning. I'd be OK with mounting them on top of the rack, but for the reasons you...

So I just took a look at the front under full lock. Looks like the clamp that holds the boot on the cv shaft touches the fork of the strut! Man it's just one thing after another with this lift lol Sent from my toaster using OB Talk mobile app

The clunking sound ended up being the sway bar end link being a little loose. I snugged it up tight and no more sound! The ESC fault light turned off after my alignment. Turns out there's a sensor in the steering system that talks to the ESC module. If the module seeing that the tires are both...

That's good to know, I'll check those out. It seems to clunk mainly when one side is more compressed than the other, so sway bar would make sense to me. Here's a picture of it post lift with 33s. It sure doesn't look much taller in the picture, but it's definitely noticeable in person Sent...

So I just wrapped up installing my 2" front lift last night and now I've got a minor clunking noise going over small bumps that I've got to track down. Man, that driver side strut was a major PITA! But it was all worth it for the final results, especially with my 275/70r18 Cooper AT3 mounted up...

So I'm really big into kayaking and love to kayak camp. Around my parts, there's not much in the way of campable banks since Louisiana is 70% swamp and 30% gas stations selling boudoin. I find myself wanting to travel further out into the country to kayak in remote areas and want to camp along...

If I were you, I'd start by finding a better football team to support. Gueax Tigers! (Just teasing) I would suggest slapping some good all-terrain tires on there and look into underbody armor. I'm not too familiar with the Trailhawk version of the Cherokee, but I'm sure there's stuff that you...
