    Easy Fall Colors Trail In Southern California

    Yes coordinates would be great! Do you think there’s still time for colors? We’re starting to approach mid November.

    Easy Fall Colors Trail In Southern California

    My wife just gave birth to our first child two weeks ago, and now that she's recovered slightly, I want to take her and the newborn (baby mostly because it has to tag along) to see the fall colors before they are gone. Since she still has quite a bit of recovery, I don't want to take her on...

    Beetlejuice Overland Build

    I wish, but I'm pretty sure my wife would have murdered me if she didn't get to pick the name.

    Beetlejuice Overland Build

    I've had a pretty busy couple of weeks with the newest member of the family and the future inheritor of Beetlejuice. She's kept us up almost all day and all night for two weeks now. I had a chance to finally install the ARB Twin Compressor with the MetalCloak bracket onto the Jeep. I have to...

    Beetlejuice Overland Build

    After the last mod, I took quite a while off from working on Beetlejuice. I recently got a job in California, and between the insane living expenses there while trying to support a family on a single income, I almost came close to selling her and getting a cheaper vehicle that had better gas...

    Beetlejuice Overland Build

    Once I was back in AZ, I was right back to modifying Beetlejuice to get her to the final overland state. My next round of items was installing the flat fenders and the rear bumper. Since I already had the MetalCloak front bumper, I decided to use them for the fender and the rear. I did the...

    Beetlejuice Overland Build

    At this point, I had to take a pause in the build because I got a job in upstate NY doing some R&D for GE. I had to leave my poor wife home by herself, but she did accompany me across the country while we visited multiple states. We went through northern AZ, Utah, Wyoming (my favorite state)...

    Beetlejuice Overland Build

    My next batch of upgrades was some small, but very useful additions. My favorite of the batch is that Beetlejuice finally got her own decal! The name is official and can't be changed at this point: There is another one on the other side. I am looking to add the name to a third location to...

    Beetlejuice Overland Build

    My first big modification was to add a new front bumper with a winch. I wanted an aggressive looking front bumper (like the Poison Spyder style bumper) but with a recessed winch area to drop the winch and hide it away. After A LOT of research, I ended up going with the MetalCloak mid-width front...

    Beetlejuice Overland Build

    The next step was to update the headlights and tail lights on Beetlejuice. I can't tell you how much I hated the OEM lights that Jeep sent me home with. When I was driving in back country at night, I might as well not have had any lights. I couldn't see anything to save my life - literally...

    Beetlejuice Overland Build

    I wanted the open feel of the air and to be able to take my best friend with me in the back, so my next modification was the Bestop soft top and the Rugged Ridge rear cargo cover. I ended up disliking both items quite a bit. The Bestop soft top was a massive pain in the ass to install and...

    Beetlejuice Overland Build

    I apologize in advance because I can't figure out how to reduce the file sizes on this page. Most forums auto resize so I don't usually worry about it, but it looks like it does not do this on this forum. I'll try to fix it sometime later this week. I'm a little late on making this build...
