Subscribed. Great pictures!

What size Grabber AT2 are you running?

I have a WK as a family DD that I will inherit in the future and mildly build to replace the KK. It's a loaded 3.7 QT1 I don't love (except for the comfort!).

I have Cooper AT3's in 245/70r17 on it and they are perfect for a DD that sees highways, ice, snow, and sand.

245/70-17 at2's. Strut spacer up front, stock length MLL's in back. 2" 5100's and 255/70-17's planned next.

I recently got a WK2, a 2014 EcoDiesel and I love it! For me it gives a good blend of good MPGs and long range on a tankful (25-30+ MPG, 500-700 miles per tankful), luxury and comfort, towing capability, vehicle design / styling, and value.

It's new and not broken in yet. Hasn't yet been on any expeditions. This is my "do it all" rig, my daily driver and expo rig.

Jeep Grand Cherokee WK adventure thread

Hello guys......
Jeep Grand Cherokee easily move in the offroad without any critical problem. I am a user of Jeep last 20 year. Mostly i preferred this brand in offroad because it's exterior part is too good.............

Recovery tracks

^^^Interesting....^^^ You will have to let us know how they hold up. I like the fact that they fold up unlike say the maxtrax which is helpful for storage. What did they run costs wise?

I have a pair of something like these I bought for about $10 from a clearance store. I've rescued a bunch of cars from ice and snow, an RV from the sand, and a Porsche full of Bruins hockey players stuck in the mud in a cow pasture (don't ask). They live in the back of my Jeep year round and I use them as a floor when camping or changing into my wetsuit. The main thing they aren't useful for is any kind of bridge.

Shocks and struts

Bikemobile, how do you like the Monroe Load Levelers shocks? Did the stock mll's give you any lift? How do they ride-- I heard they can be squeaky. Thinking about those and the 2" Bilstein adjustable 5100 strut combo with 245/75r17's or 255/70r17's.

245/70-17 at2's. Strut spacer up front, stock length MLL's in back. 2" 5100's and 255/70-17's planned next.
