On May 28th... Skip Grand Junction and stay in Fruita, CO. You can camp for free in the North Fruita Desert off 18rd. There are pay sites there as well if you want a fire pit. Its a great little town with 2 Micro-brewerys (Suds Brothers and Copper Club). Before you leave in the morning stop at...

Welcome to OB!! Overlanding isnt about the vehicle you drive... its about the experience and adventures you find with friends and family. So load up the jeep, subaru, minivan, golf cart or whatever and just GO!!! You live in some of the most beautiful country in the world....grab the family and...

I will be out there for most of the week during EJS.... Sometimes with a jeep, sometimes not. Im always up for meeting a fellow OB member!!

You absolutely should get IG. Just a bunch of pictures without the Facebook drama.

Go to the "New Members Start Here" Section and post in the Have an OB Emblem? Upgrade Your Account! thread. Michael will take care of you shortly... if one of the other staff doesnt beat him to it. Welcome to OB!!

I have Hinterland Industries Tents on my trailers and cant say enough good things about them. They have 400g ripstop poly/canvas tent bodies, 1" thick alum poles with alloy joints, 3" memory foam mattresses and offer both a curved top and regular top model. While the tents are made in China...

We use a basic AMO with mountains for die cut stickers and embroidery. Clean, simple, easy.

Aluminum vs Steel on an offroad rig: I suggest aluminum anywhere above the midline of the rig(headlights and above). Things up here dont tend to get hit very often and if they do its not very hard. This ties back into the low center of gravity thing. Bumpers: kind of dealers choice here. You...

Welcome to the group!! Im over in western Colorado and spend a lot of time out on the trails throughout CO and UT. If you ever want to meet up or get advise on your new JK... Let me know!

We had a great trip. The whole trail took about 4 hours to run. We went south to SOB hill and North to the Confluence Overlook.... a must do. It was pretty hot for it to still be technically winter (89degF) so we were stopping and handing out cold water to hikers when we saw them. I took a few...

Always run the lowest lift you can to clear a given tire size. If a leveling kit will let you clear the tire size you want, then I would say its the way to go. If you need to go higher than what the leveling kit will provide, I would save up and get a suspension that will last as long as the...

Besides the rear shocks there is nothing wrong with the RC components. A 3" spacer lift in the front of a tacoma is a little much... 1-2" leveling kit would be much more reliable long term. Sent from my SM-G930V using OB Talk mobile app

The rough country kit is just front strut spacers and rear lift blocks with a pair of longer rear shocks. Its simple and effective. Its nothing fancy but it will lift your vehicle to clear larger tires. I can tell you that the rear shocks are "rough" and most likely have a lower ride quality...

Welcome to OB!! Thanks for being part of this growing community!

I just pulled my permit for a day trip to Elephant Hill in Canyonlands Needles District for tomorrow. Day trip permits are only available 24hrs in advance and they are limited. Get your Day trip/Overnight permits for Canyonlands(White Rim, Elephant Hill, Lavender Basin) here...

I use the LuminAid lanterns. They are Solar powered and inflatable so they pack down to be very light and small. The kids love the small cube one(Packlite Nova). They put out plenty of light for wandering around camp at night. The larger Packlight 16 model can be clipped onto almost anything...

Many trailers are only insured for liability through the towing vehicle.... and then thats just the trailer itself. All of the contents would need to be covered under a different policy, most likely your homeowners policy. That gets tricky when you dont have a home.

I hope you enjoyed Moab. We were there all weekend as well.

Nice to see another CO member... Welcome!

If anyone sees me, flag me down for a sticker or hat.
