Still available? Is it solid axle or independent?

Anyone have any experience using the MI DNR trail map? I'm just wondering how accurate it is and if there's anything I should watch out for. I know I'll need an OVR license and Trail permit. Anything else I should know before heading up there...

I'm down! Just need the wheres and whens.

Thank you both for you service. It's nice to see fellow vets on here sharing tried and proven advise. I'd like to make one addition. As @mjherron pointed out, prevention is a pound of cure. While properly fitting footwear is key, it's also important to buy quality. That's not to say you need to...

Check out Expedition Overland. Great group of guys and gals. They don't do as much these days but if you start from the beginning they have documented some awesome adventures all over North and South America. https://www.youtube.com/user/ExpeditionOverland

Sounds fun! Yeah, it's difficult to find Subaru parts that are not geared towards rally or autocross, some parts are cross-compatible and others just simply aren't. For Imprezas the best thing for offroad has always been to swap forester or outback suspension. Unfornutaely, you have an outback...

Never owned Rallietek but heard a lot of good things from people who like to get dirty. You could always check Nasioc or one of the 5 million other Subaru forums. I'm sure there are a bunch of people that would tell you to buy something 10 times the cost. [emoji16] It's nice to see scoobie...

Hi all, Austin from Gas City. New to overlanding. Looking to get out there and find new places. I'm going to be a weekender for sure but I'm not against driving a bit to find the good stuff. Planning to start some cold weather camping soon to gain experience close to home but then I want to...

Nice rig so far. I'm on almost the same platform. Ext cab instead of quad and 03 not 05. You've got a nice setup, I'll be sure to share mine as it progresses as well. I love seeing builds outside of jeeps and yotas. Keep it going!

v-man: Excellent write-up.Thanks for sharing. I see your point about the manual control. I think I will do a hybrid. 12v turn-on, to switch, to solenoid. That will ensure I can always disconnect manually but will also ensure the solenoid is disengaged when the vehicle is off. I can guard against...

For sure! I can already feel it shaking in my wallet. I will definitely calculate needs before purchasing. At least now I have a good idea of what to look for. Thanks again.

I just used the term "relay" because that's the closest thing I could think of. Maybe what I'm looking for is a solenoid. I can't think you enough. I'm already building a shopping list. It might be a while before I can get it all put together as I am just starting out but this gives me...

Excellent information! Thank you so much. That gives me a great starting point. Just one question, Is their some kind of high amp relay I could use in place of the manual battery switch? It would be nice if I could find a turn-on wire off the ignition or something that would connect when on and...

I know there is a dual battery thread but rather than showing what I'm building I'd like to ask questions here before begin inveating in equipment. I'm not interested in brand name or vehicle specific applications. I want to build a reliable system that can meet current and (more importantly)...

I found this thread on google and joined the forum so I could join in. I don't live along the west side of the state but I'm always down to explore new places. Count me in.

Hi all! I'm new here and new to overlanding. Looking forward to getting out there. I'm in run-what-you-brung mode so no yota or jeep, at least not yet. I'll be using my daily, an 03 GMC Sierra 4x4 Z71. It's old and has already seen a lot. I hope to show the old dog some new tricks. Currently it...

Definitely want to do this!

Recon, I'm just north of you in Gas City. I'm very new here and new to overlanding. I really want to meet new people and start experiencing. Very down for some weekend trips.
