Bucks 2013 JKUR Build,Trails & Tales


So enough fun...back to the build !

We ask a lot from our rig when we load all our camp gear and weight distribution is everything as we all know. After work today it just got 10x better. I welded on a new hitch receiver to the front bumper for the cargo basket. This is gonna be huge ! Now we can get more weight off the azz end and it will be better riding/handling on long trips.
I don't put a lot of weight in that basket but I HATE it hanging out so far away from the axle. Normally a rear cargo basket is not a big deal but when fully loaded with the tent, propane tank, high lift, solar kit and water all on the ass I had to do something...

Problem Solved !

Thanks djbkm !
Actually welding is not as hard as you think. Anybody can learn how to weld enough to make things strong. Then of course you get into better quality machines = better quality welds... (prettier)...that aint me... LOL
The amount of money I have saved building my own racks etc. is awesome, but I actually just enjoy doing it and having my own designs on our rig.

Love the look of the carrier at the back of your jeep - I've just started planning one out for the back of my Land Rover along similar lines. You've put a lot of thought into yours by the looks of it and it's really paid off - looks fantastic
