A buddy and I are planning a trip down to Florence, Oregon from British Columbia this summer.
We’ve decided to explore some areas in either Northern California or Southern Oregon after we’re done in Florence. Problem is I have no idea where to go, or what might be good to see. Looking for any...
I am putting together an air compressor mount in my custom drawer setup, but had no place to run a clean switch install in the rear. I don't know if anyone else is as anal as me for this stuff, but 3D printing to the rescue lol. The JL has this plastic piece to attach your wiring harness and...
Has anyone built a JL drawer system and has any recommendations on things they wish they included, or mistakes made? I have designed a 2 drawer system for tools and recovery equipment, with the dometic CFX 45 on top and a zarges case on the other side. I think it meets all the requirements, but...
I decided on adding a house battery, so I've ordered the following:
Renogy 20A DCDC Charger (would like to upgrade to Redarc 1225 in the future, but not in the budget now)
Odyssey PC1100
American Adventure Labs rear cargo bracket (Jeep JL)
I was planning on a 70amp fuse and 4 gauge wire. Are...
I created an assessment form in google docs to allow people to conduct a risk assessment of their activities to help list the correct first aid equipment. There are a lot of posts here and other on other forums of people asking what type of first aid supplies to bring on their trip. Personally...
About a week ago I was asking around regarding a rotopax tire carrier after having an idea for a carrier that wouldn't interfere with the backup camera and not be a complete hassle to remove if spare needed to be changed. Anyhow, fast forward and I've designed this and am going to prototype it...
I'm in the process of designing a dual 2 gallon water rotopax carrier for my Jeep. I'm looking for a simple way to mount it to the rear spare and came across this a design used for mountain maxtrax in the same location that uses "extended lug nuts" pictured below. Does anyone know where these...
Part of having emergency equipment onboard (first aid, fire extinguisher, etc.) is ensuring it is easily identifiable for yourself, passengers or others who may need to access it (in my opinion, anyhow). I see a lot of recovery equipment and first aid equipment obscurely placed in a vehicle...
Has anyone fabricated a rear bumper for the gen 3 Tacoma? I am in the process of doing up a design of my own, but my skills outside of cardboard mockups aren't that good. Trying to learn DesignSpark Mechanical, but would probably have issues with clearances. Curious to see any feedback some more...
I hope to have my Tacoma built before August 2nd and will be running Whipsaw in the interior region of British Columbia August 2nd to 5th. I've done the trail before (details down below), and I know it is pretty popular so if anyone else would like a guide or has been thinking of doing the...
So two years ago I sold my 2014 Jeep Wrangler which I had lifted on 37's and the whole lot. I bought a luxury car, which was nice but did not suit my life style at all. I moved out of the dense city area to a suburb recently and picked myself up a 2019 Tacoma TRD Offroad this weekend as a...
The Whipsaw trail is located in Southern British Columbia and is a multi-terrain track. This run will include travelling west, staying a night at Murphy Lakes. The Whipsaw runs from 2,400 to 6,260 feet in elevation and traverses some of the most scenic terrain in British Columbia.
So I've always loved the rally style decals that go on the side of rally cars, with the flag and name. I've been toying with printing some in the similar style with my country and member number. Thoughts?
I recently stumbled on a 4xOverland video which discusses the "three stages of survival". I know a couple follow Andrew, but I found this particular video to contain a lot of good knowledge, had to share.
What are some things you consider when planning for a trip? First aid kit location, means...
This coming August I will be heading back up to tackle the Whipsaw trail again. The run will start south of Princeton and end at Murphy Lakes. Total trail travel will be 143km (see map below).
Anyone interested in joining me for the trip is more than welcome. I will post more details closer to...
I am thinking about planning a longer trip this year, possibly Moab. First off, what are your favorite trails and what do you recommend? Second, is anyone planning a trip to Moab this year and accepting company?
So I have a business trip coming up, which means I'll be in Bothell, Washington. Is anyone around that area interested in hooking up on the weekend before I head back to Canada to do some overlanding?
It's so awesome to see so many new members from BC! Some of you I know of from Westcoast Jeeps and Peden 4 Wheel Drive, others I have never met or seen. So, I was thinking we could organize an Overland Bound meetup/rally/trip this spring or summer, if there is enough interest. Friends from down...
