  1. First State Overland

    US East SOLD: 2015 JKU Rubicon Hard Rock - First State Overland Off-grid build - 42K miles

    I'll keep this short since most of the details are already listed on the linked web page. We're selling our overland rig and planning on something larger for full-timing it. I was hoping to sell as a package but the Hiker trailer sold in a day so the Jeep is left. (Located in Newark, DE but can...

    Mountain State Overland: Discovery Route 1 Recap

    Just wanted to share the recap of our trip... We had an outstanding time and made some great friends along the way. The MSO team is so down-to-earth and have something really good going. I only hope I can emulate a part of their talent in capturing our trip northeast next month. EDIT- I added...

    Some ride along footage from AOAA

    We took a break from trip planning and rig building to take a much-needed trail ride at the Anthracite Outdoor Adventure Area in PA. Tossed together some footage.

    Hiker Trailer - anyone have experience with them? (Now Buildout)

    We've been looking for a good quality overlanding trailer at a decent price point, finding that most of your popular teardrops and utility trailers start at 15K and can just to 25-30K easily, which is kind of ridiculous. It is totally understandable why people build their own. However we don't...

    Resolved Ability to change username

    Hello, I'm wondering if there's an ability to change user name on the forums. I'm working towards some bigger overlanding things and would like to have that reflected on the OB forums. It seems to me that it used to be there but maybe I'm missing it.

    Northeast Expedition Planning - looking for information

    I'm in the early stages of planning a trip from Delaware up through to St. John's, NL, Canada. (And back of course.) There are places I definately want to hit and I've been to Maine before, but I'm looking for recommendations for getting off grid and remote (legally) as possible all the way...

    Black NATO jerry cans

    What are your thoughts on the color of fuel cans that would be exposed to direct sunlight on the roof of the rig? Looking at some quality NATO jerry cans, red or green would be a natural choice but black would match the my rig better. As we all know black absorbs sunlight / heat. Think...

    Roof top storage boxes

    I'm look for recommendations on a good, high quality steel/aluminum, lockable storage box that I can mount to the front portion of my Gobi Stealth rack roof. I know Gobi itself makes a stealth box, but it's a little short. I'm looking for something I can mount (bolt) to the rack, not take on...

    SOLD Offroad Elements JK Limb Riser Kit

    SOLD Due to a mix up on my part, I have an extra stealth limb riser kit for a JK. I didn't realize the one I needed was the Gobi rack version with longer cables to reach the top of the rack. As you can see from the link below, this retails for $125. It's not in the original packaging because...

    FS - Teraflex JK Rear Utility Cargo Rack

    I recently purchased (brand new from Teraflex) the solid black version of the JK Rear Utility Cargo rack with the added aluminum side plates (also black). I assembled and installed it for a total of two days and did not like the position it sat at due to my fridge and other cargo area items...

    RTT on full time - UV protection?

    For those of us running a roof top tent full time and that is not garage kept, how has the cover for your RTT been holding up in the sun? I'm concerned that the black vinyl cover is going to fade and/or get brittle in a short period of time. I'm also a little concerned with heat being that...

    Mid Atlantic Overland Festival - anyone going?

    Just wondering if anyone is planning to attend the mid-Atlantic overland festival this year in PA? http://www.overlandfestival.com/ This will be my first year attending. I'm looking forward to it and dreading it at the same time because I know how much work I have to do to my Jeep before I go.

    East Coast - Mid Atlantic?

    Or even Northeast, Mid Atlantic and Southeast? There seems to be an overwhelming majority of members out west but don't forget about us east coasters!

    2015 JKURHR Build

    Oh, where to start.  Every five years I take a road trip across the country.  The next trip is scheduled to leave in May 2016 and this time a new Jeep will be my chariot.  Every adventure has a first step, so this is the day I brought her home, still bone stock but very, very capable.  I ordered...
