    Is a Land Cruiser the right choice

    Sounds like a van might be a better fit for your needs OP. Highway and gravel roads don't really require much in the way of "rugged performance". Sounds like occupant capacity is your main hurdle. So, mini-van or similar would handle that no problem.

    Bed in a CJ?

    You could make a new floor that's hinged and folds onto itself when not in use, then drop the tailgate and unfold it out the back to place you fart sack or air mattress. I'm 6'4" and have a 2A. I wouldn't even attempt to sleep in it.

    buying a new jeep

    I walked in to a dealer I liked and said, "I want a Recon." The response was, "what's that?" After all that was settled, I ordered the options I wanted and waited for it to show up. When it did, we "negotiated" price. They said "**** ton", I countered with "less than that". This went on for a...

    juk recon axels

    Dan, the 16 HR I park near has rails that extend noticeably more into the wheel well. Were they 3-4" longer a few years back?

    juk recon axels

    I can't read that chart, but my front springs are labeled 68196006AA Here's a shot of the C. Otherwise, it's essentially a JKURHR. There is some accent colored trim in the cab, but everything else is normal. I park near a HR at work and my eyeball math can't tell much of a difference...

    juk recon axels

    The C's are beefier and the tubes are bigger, and they're also capped with vast diff covers front and rear. It sits higher that the Hard Rock and Rubicon, but not much. I'd say 315s would fit but spacers might help out. Fwiw here's mine in the wild.

    Ok, this is really cool. Great work. But, I'm sure I'm not the only one that is wondering about the abandoned build you moved into.

    Yep, that's a few miles from my house. I see a guy on a Vincent Commander on my way in to work once or twice a week. It's an interesting place for a lot of reasons. lol

    Wandering New Mexico

    That's me. Right at the top of Sedillo Hill, east of "town", at 7000ft, and can hit Costco on the way home from work. I lived in Tucson, still own a rental home there, and really enjoyed that area too. But, the elevation and actual winter make Tijeras a really good fit. I'm not really a winter...

    Wandering New Mexico

    Looks like an awesome trip. I love seeing pics of NM that folks would never picture as being in the state. There's a couple spots I like to go to up north that I could convince people was Scotland with the misty morning and rolling green hills. I'm really glad to have wound up here and get to...

    Convince me I need a fridge!

    I don't have a fridge and have not ever experienced one in the field. I live in NM and it gets hot here. I still go camping and manage to survive with a couple of 10 year old Coleman coolers. I spent a few years in the Middle East and didn't have a cooler in the field there either. Again, I...
