Old Iron overland rig

Bought a 1979 Jeep J20 and decided to rig it up for some remote exploring. Built a bed rack to hold a RTT, rotopaxs, recovery gear and a Trasharoo. Also picked up some rims and 37" rubber. Just waiting for the new 2.5" Springs to arrive so I can clearance the fenders better to suit. Currently installing OBA and a 10 gal tank. My 2 boys love the old rigs so we decided to leave the body as is and most important is the comfort of the old bench seats.

I keep coming back to this thread, love the J series!

Just because, here's a pic of one I found a couple of summers ago while hiking. The guy wasn't home, so I left a note on his door asking about selling it, but I never heard back. As of November, it was still there. I plan on staking out his place this summer, with a trailer and a wad of cash!

Dang, that's awesome. I love it!

I also notice you have two more epic off road machines - you've got your own convoy! :thumbsup:
