It was great to see so many Overland Bound members at the event today! Great to see @B Wild and @J Peters again, and we met a bunch of members we have not crossed paths with before. Michelle and I had a great time visiting with everyone, and hope to see you all on an adventure soon...

We were there from 9:30 to 2:30, sorry we did not run in to each other, lots of people milling about.

For us it has not been so much of where to put our emblem on the vehicle, but which vehicle does it go on! so the lonely OB emblem has been sitting on my desk for a few years... As we seem unable to reduce the amount of vehicles, the choice suddenly became obvious, gather a bunch of its...

Introduction: Been having some fun building our new to us Jeep Wrangler, and thought we would start a thread for the build. First a bit of backstory on how the Jeep came home with us. Those that know us are well aware that we often bring home strays, of both animal and vehicular varieties...

Short morning meetup in advance of Mule Expedition Outfitters open house. Michelle & I are planning on arriving by 9:30 am and look forward to meeting any Overland Bound members who are planning on attending the open house. Come on by our rig, have a donut and say hello. For those up in the...

David, interesting similarity in our user name and first names..lol you should be able to change your user name, by clicking on your name at the top of the screen (assuming you are on the web, not sure about the app), you should see a menu item for name change. limited to one change...

You have a great start with the tent and camping gear, and the 4 runner is a capable rig off the factory floor. I always put safety at the top of my list, First Aid, Recovery, and communications are paramount on all of our rigs. The amount and type of those are dependent on how and where...

I always look at the founding principles of this community.. Overlanding is vehicle based travel, and It does not matter what you drive are the first two on the list. If someone wants to travel in a old VW bug sleeping in a bedroll on the ground, or prefers to roll in a Earth roamer with...

Also not all automotive wire is created equal, lots of venders selling CCA (Copper Clad Aluminum) but you have to look deep to find that notation, might just say copper wire in the description, I always make sure I am buying 100% copper, most often marine grade if I can get it.

So we found ourselves sitting on the couch Friday night just before midnight catching up on you tubes, and clicked on Michaels new camping goodies video, and as the Overland Bound logo popped up, it smacked me upside the head with a big " hey you forgot to invest you procrastinator!! And...

I thought you were dedicated? the rest of the world does not stop just because you are out of town playing, I am sure they have a internet connection there..lol, Actually just jealous that you are going to off road Disneyland and we are not. Looking forward to Sundays call, perfect thing...

Sergio, welcome to Overland Bound, I agree with Mike W's comments above, also if this is your first build, and or new to overlanding, deciding on what you actually need vs what the overland equipment suppliers try to convince you that you need can be the hardest part and a wheel barrow load...

Think the patriot is a close tie with the Commander, we drove one for well over 200k and many badge of honor trails completely stock, currently thought I would have to give the unjeep award to the Renegade, its a far cry from its namesake of the 70's when it was a CJ5 trim level..

It is not supposed to, We are in the middle of installing the rack, should have it done in the next few days, will grab a couple of photos as we do it and let you know and to show the final new location. From what I understand, the wire runs from the radio along the floor and up the...

Depending on how far your tent extends over the freedom panels, Maximus-3 makes a relocation bracket for the sat antenna ($35), moves it from over the speaker bar to the passenger front corner of the roll bar. We are just getting ready to add their roof rack and relocation bracket and will...

We have a 2000 Grand, with over 200k an still going strong, ours has the 4.7 with the Quadra Drive II all wheel drive transfer case. Other than leaky valve cover gaskets that I have to fix one day, it still runs strong. The Limited version comes with the full time 4 wheel drive and vari-lock...

Ezz, We have a pretty active bunch in the area North of Seattle, Michelle and I have been trying to have at least one meetup, campout or trip a month. Keep an eye on the Rally Point tab and or the Calendar for events being posted you should see lots more people posting as the weather...

Tom, did you manage to find anyone to help out yet? We have been out of town this past week so missed your post, but are home now and would be happy to have you come over and use any of our tools for your project, have a great selection of woodworking tools and should not be to hard to...

My Air 2's batteries never seem to hold a full charge, charge them before leaving and next day one bar short of full after sitting in the box....

A good first aid / trauma kit is one of those thing many people buy because your supposed to have one, and they forget about it for many years until they need it. Always a good idea to pull it out on a regular basis and refamiliarize yourself with what is in the kit and where its stored so...
