Yeah I did a test run on the freeway at 80 mph, I wouldn't even know it's there.
I'm sure once I load it with fuel can, boxes, and other goodies that will change.
So far, even with the traction boards, there is zero noise.
I use a bike lock to lock the more expensive stuff. Yes they can still steal items, but itll take them more time.
I don't haul stuff when daily driving, just on trips.
My JK came with rock sliders, but I really do not know how much abuse they can handle.
I have seen a video of a guy who says it's safe to jack from the slider.
My dad used to 'overland' (camp in the middle of nowhere, might of been illegal), in a old vanagon van when we were kids.
He brought 2x4s in case he got stuck. But he was raised in the mountains and is pretty crafty.
My wrangler is pretty much stock, other than the 285 70 17 tires, it goes...
The sooner the better!
I know plenty of people who have never been camping, which makes me sad.
But then again, I dont like to go and find that the campground is full of people, especially those that dont want to be there.
When I have kids (GF is bugging me), they are going camping as soon as...
GF got me a standing rotisserie grill for camping, along with a $100 gift card to this very nice butchery. Plan to try a pound of the wagyu steak they are known for.
Cant wait to use it.
My parents took us out to the middle of nowhere at all ages, even before I could remember. I've been to yellowstone with no memories of it :(
I dont have children now, but bring my 3 furbabies everywhere I go.
What do you think about the teraflex performance leveling kit? It would be paired with fox shocks.
I think it adds 2" to the front and 1" to the rear.
I also have 285 70 17, but with wheel spacers. I have rubbed once when going a little fast on a bumpy dirt hill, but never while turning.
