    2010 Jeep Wrangler Saraha JKU Build!

    Hello everyone! It has been a pretty long time since I have posted last, my last build (96 Jeep Grand Cherokee ZJ) was awesome and due to some rust problems had to get rid of it. I drove a small pickup for a majority of the year until we found this guy! I have always wanted a Jeep Wrangler and...

    Long time no update! Part 4???? With everything that has been going on, Overlanding unfortunately got pushed back in priority for me for a bit, but I do have some updates on my ZJ that are somewhat notable!

    I actually just got a UV5R and am gonna get my license in a few weeks as well lol I think I’m going to do shocks and springs and that will give it a little bit more clearance over the 23year old springs lol

    1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee ZJ

    Part.... 2.75? Still isn't a big enough change for part 3, but I bought a Hi-Lift Jack today when I was out, since getting the Jeep out in the mud a lot lately I figured I needed a way to get myself out of trouble if the need were to arise! I thought about a lot of options like the Menards...

    Ahh, yeah I mistyped that, it is the 42re. I will look up Kolak I don't plan on going West with my rig quite yet so I'll run stock - 1.5in lift for as long as I can, but if we start going further then I might go taller!

    Part 2.5! I didn't really feel like this is enough to make it a completely new part, since I mentioned it in my last post... but we are now lighted! Like I mentioned before I went with 2 6in Flood lights. Went back to the store the next day to get the 2 light wiring harness but they were...

    Part 2! Back again, didn't really know how to format this thread, whether I wanted to edit my original post or add to it, so I think I'll do it this way instead. I have had the ZJ for about 3 weeks now and I still love this thing, I have driven it up north to my moms house (about 2 hour...

    Heater blower motor can be quite the job! I just did the blower motor and heater core for my step-dads grand (98) and he was shocked when I told I was going to take the ENTIRE dash of his car lol! Hope yours keeps running for years to come!

    After months of research and slowly getting my wife on board, we decided we wanted to get into overlanding! Since we are both pretty young and early in our careers we didnt have a lot of money to spend buying a brand new 4Runner or Tacoma like I wanted... But nevertheless I set out to look for a...
