Welcome to Overland Bound, glad your here. Make sure and check the forums for your local Overland groups and meet ups.

My suggestion would be to start of with sliders, a lift and tires!

Thanks for the advice! I’ll definitely look into local groups. I was leaning towards sliders first as well then suspension and tires.

I did it a little different, did lift, tires then sliders! You can check out my build thread at my 2015 Toyota 4Runner build.

Hello, Im Chris, I have an Off-road/Overlanding problem. Oh wait, this isnt the place for that? HAHAHAHAHAHA, couldnt resist always wanted to start a conversation like that.


Just joined the group from Phoenix AZ (Hello from Captain Obvious). Former Midwesterner (Ark/KCMO) living in the desert for four years so far. Been following the Overland Bound YouTube (and a few others) for a while. Figured now was a good time to jump in. Looking forward to new experiences and meeting new people.

Hello, from North Louisiana!

New to the forum, long time camper and explorer, but new to overlanding. I have a '15 Jeep Grand Cherokee totally stock but am looking to get a RTT (probably the Smitty Built XL) a 2" leveling kit and add some BFG KO2s to her that are currently on my Roxor.

My offroading vehicle is a 2018 Mahindra Roxor 2.5L Turbo Diesel that Im building for boondocking. Ive already added a top, windshield, wipers, turn signals (yes she's street legal), front Warn Stinger Bumper with Smitty Built 9500 Syn. Winch, Spare tire and carrier, 1/2 doors, flood lights, ECU reflash, and most important some decals. I'll post pix of her as soon as this sight will let me.

Still to come, a set of 33 Mud tires, a 4 inch lift, and a set of front and rear Spartan Lunchbox lockers. EGR delete, Turbo back 2.5 inch exhaust.

Enjoying this sight and learning from others about their builds... looking forward to learning so much more...

View attachment 85490 Hello,
My name is Cooper and I live in Prescott, Arizona (born and raised). I am brand new here and I am looking forward to sharing stories and learning with all of you. I manage to get out quite a bit in the Southwest. I have 2017 Ram 2500 Cummins with a fair amount of AEV additions and a fairly built out AT Habitat that I absolutely love. I wouldn’t say that I use my truck primarily in a traditional Overland manner. The main purpose of my build is to have a place to lay my head after a long day spent with my wife tied into a climbing rope, on the saddle of my mountain bike, or strapped into my snowboard, as well as a means to consistently get me to all of these areas safely. I have already learned so much from the overland community and I am super excited to be here.

Nice three wheel action

Thanks KDC the 3 wheel action took place at Lonestar Toyota Jamboree that they have every year here in Texas. It’s coming up in May, and is pretty cool.

What's up everyone!
I'm a brand new overland enthusiast. Been following forums, groups, and videos. Always been a dream to build my own rig and been fortunate enough to start this year! Just got a 2019 4x4 Tacoma & currently living in the SoCal area. I'd love to hear tips, guides, suggestions on how to build a rig to enjoy overlanding! Tia. Super stoked to be a part of this community btw.

Hi Everyone,

Sam here from San Rafael, California. I have a 2017 Tacoma TRD OR. Currently it is still the stock package with a Bestop Supertop on the back. Not the greatest for the 3rd gen but it help between bringing the dogs along and keeping my work supplies dry in the rain. Just didn't want to give up the bed completely with a hard cap. I originally bought the truck two years ago to get into overlanding and did my first trip to Anza-Borrego within a week of owning it. Then Life life happened. So I don't have much overlanding experience yet. Looking forward to building out my rig and really get back out there. Any advice on good places to start out building my rig or great places to go that would be much appreciated. I'm already finding lots of great ideas going throw posts on this site.

I'm excited to get out there and hopefully I get to meet some of you along the way.

Here are some pics of her now plus the first trip overlanding.View attachment 85494View attachment 85495
