Guys, I'm going to convert my Jeepster from a Rock-Crawler type rig to an overland rig! I'm looking forward to doing some longer trails. Any suggestions would be great, here's my pic
Thx

Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

My yj wasn't that hard core, but I focused on reliability and comfort for the long trips. I wasn't interested in down grade my drive train, I'm still running 35" tires and 5.13 gears. For the longer trips I load it and the trailer, strap in, wind it up and settle in for the trip. I get there when I get there. Ron

Thx Sir! Reliability is my biggest fear. I haven't drive this more than about 40 miles from home since I built it. Appreciate you replying.

First jeep in my family was a Jeep commando that my brother bought. Had the Buick v6 and an auto transmission. That is the rig that hit me with the bug for sure. Since your truck is already plenty capable I would focus on reliability as you mentioned, and anything you can do for comfort. Love the rig, good luck with your build.
