lol... never in a million years would have guessed that would have been the issue, the fact that it would get sucked down and be solid enough to completely choke off the engine, then just pop back into place like nothing happened. Would have thought it would have been deformed, damaged or some...

@Bad Sport, did you ever get your JK transmission TCM issues sorted out? Did you make it to DV, and did it work better?

Finally have resolved the oil in the airbox and loss of power on hills issues with our JKU:) after way to much time overthinking what could possibly be causing the issue, looking into major work or engine swap, I made on more pass through the problems creating a logic flow chart of symptoms...

We bought ours from REI last year along with the Ignik ammo can fire box (which was a returned item for under $100). I was also not happy with the short hose, especially with the fire box, so purchased an adapter turning the short one that came with the tank into about a 10 footer when...

I do not have a need for a generator, but have been curious about the ALPS propane generators, seem like a good price and like the idea of not having a gas powered generator in the rig bouncing around with potential leaks and smells, same goes for the chainsaw, love my battery saw.

We stopped carrying our solar panels unless we are going to an event or camp for three or more days, just never use them when the battery gets topped off by moving each day. I spent way to many cold wet nights during SAR operations back in the day, still love cold weather camping but with a...

The Jackery is rated to operate (draw power from) in 14 - 104 temps, charging can only happen above 32 degrees. We have only used the Jackery a couple of times in weather cold enough to get the unit below charging temps in the car at night. In that case we have to wait until the car heats it...

We are running on a 100ah battery and for winter camping we run a diesel heater all night, 12 volt heating blanket for a couple of hours, fridge, camp lights, and battery heating pad if its really cold. End up with about 50% battery remaining after an overnight. Takes around an hour and half...

Trasharoos just do not seem to last, Current bag is a Last US Bag company one, WAY expensive but shows no sign of wear after a year of hard use. (Well the only issue I have is the finish on the little D rings they have for attaching extra stuff to the outside are rusting, we will see how...

We also have a stuffed Eeyore sitting up on the dash (along with a few ducks that have been left on the hood). With an English heritage I grew up on Winnie the Pooh, and have have my own 'gloomy place complete w/ black cloud' (its quiet and no one bothers me there...lol) and as such suits me...

Our WJ was totaled in a five vehicle crash three months after we purchased it used in 2006, and was replaced with a Jeep Commander while the WJ sat in the driveway waiting to be parted out. Michelle had fallen in love with the WJ in the three months and just did not enjoy driving the Commander...

Cole, Welcome to Overland Bound! We are not far south of you in Washington State, you live in a beautiful area to explore. Very nice looking JL, a great platform to build and explore with .

We run a 3" lift and 35's on our JKU. currently have a 23Zero tent, 270 awning and a roof rack. Did add 12.50 wide tires and different offset wheels which added about 4" to our track width. The tent is offset a bit to the right to counter the awning. Weight distribution is 25% on each wheel...

My ARB fridge came with a dual function plug, works as a regular cigarette lighter plug, and then the end screws off and exposes a two pin plug that goes into their proprietary receptacle that you hard wire into the vehicle and has screw collar to keep the plug in place. For those with a...

Rob, Noticed you just signed up, Welcome to Overland Bound! We are located not to far north of you on Camano, always good to see new NW folks on here. We have a Jackery 1000 and 300. We still use the 1000 in our Grand Cherokee to power the fridge on longer trips, and yes it can be...

Hi Robert, Welcome to Overland Bound from Washington State

I managed to get my three tax packages to the accountant an hour ahead of closing on Friday, glad that's over, nothing left but the check writing to Uncle Sam, glad you got to spend some time with your Daughter!

Thanks to everyone who attended our campout this weekend! The weather gods were pleased with us and delivered a great background of dry weather even if it was a touch on the cool side. We had a great turnout with 8 rigs and 15 people, some great folks both regulars and some that we just met...
