Welcome! Looks like a fun little vehicle you have!

Drive up Thurs, meetup in Flag, then drive to Mojave, camp (Thursday night). Wake up Friday morning early and head to OTG. Food provided by OTG: Friday dinner, Saturday lunch & dinner. I'd also be interested in coordinates for the Mojave camp spot if they are available. I like to have my...

It should be fine, but they'll let you know if not when you order it. I know one of the things they ask is what bumper you have, they will customize the mounting options if needed to suit your bumper

I need to start putting together ideas for a rear galley in my jeep, so i'm looking forward to following your progress!

Welcome!

I'm looking forward to following your build, nice looking Jeep! One of these days soon I should also swap out my headlights for something a bit more practical. It's surprising how poor the factory headlights perform at night.

Ok, with that new USB port out of the way, I was ready to continue on my relocation of the stereo USB aux port. Originally I was going to remove the port from the center console and reinstall it on the dash somewhere. After opening it all up and looking at it all, there was no way the existing...

Next up I wanted to tackle some annoyances with the interior. Mainly the stock locations for the USB ports. The stereo system has an auxiliary input USB port located inside the center console between the front seats. There's also a power-only USB input on the front panel of the stereo head unit...

I also picked up some X-Bull recovery tracks. The price is actually sane on these, and they seem really durable so far. They are rated for 10 tons. They stack at 4 1/8", which is almost an inch more than stacked Maxtrax (3.3"), but for $200 less i'm ok with that. I would like to figure out a...

For easier access to the rack contents, especially when we have the big plano cases up there, i installed some door hinge foldout foot steps. I decided to just go with one on each side for now since I don't have the front insert for the rack yet, so there's not really a need for steps on the...

It's been a complete game-changer!

Next up was an upgrade we've had our eyes on for quite a while since this desert heat is unrelenting, and having shade is a major deal. We picked up a Foxwing awning from Rhino-Rack/Oztent. Since I knew ordering brackets from GOBI was going to be a total shit-show with months of waiting and zero...

Ok, time to get this thread a bit more up-to-date. A few more bits have been added to the rack over the past few months. We always have an e-tool in the rig, but i've been meaning to pick up a more realistically usable shovel to have for actual recovery situations, so I picked up the...

I'm heading to OTG from Tucson, AZ, but will be continuing on up to S.F. after the event. If there will be a return-trip convoy, I'd love to join it!

Awesome, thank you for coordinating all of this! We'll see you Thursday!

I like the idea of breaking the drive up a bit and camping for a night somewhere along the way (Mojave or wherever). @David Jones and I will be coming up from Tucson, so we'll already have about 4 hours under our belt before we even meet up with the convoy in Prescott.

OK, i've been noodling on this for a couple of months now, and while I was ripping apart the innards of my Jeep this weekend to relocate some of the poorly located USB ports, I figured now would be a good time to also wire in a new connection to the CAN bus. I've ordered a CAN bus shield for...

Awesome, I wasn't even aware of your questionnaire! I'll fill it out as well in the off chance you make it down to the Tucson area while you are in AZ

I'm a long-shot maybe.

I screwed some heavy duty eye-bolts into the roof of my carport and would then use ratcheting straps to support and lift the top. While the top was off the jeep it would just dangle there in the carport. It was easy enough to get the top off alone, probably took 5-10 minutes each time. Now i...
