The Continuing saga of my 2011 JK Unlimited Build!

[kojackJKU]

Well....Finally have my springtail gear ordered, cannot wait to get the stuff. it looks awesome! Also, the fox shocks and bump stops will be on too soon! cannot wait to get up in the back country with those as well. Scott, Do you think I can still fit the swag off road action packer and my coleman power chill between the rear storage bins? Oh, my new hella headlights will be here on monday as well to replace the truck lites. Another can't wait item!

 

[Comanche Scott]

Just measured 39-1/2" (103.2cm) between the two side racks. so as long as they don't total to wider than that, you'll be good to go.

Looking forward to checking out the pictures. Hoping you really like the shocks and bumpstops. I have the 2.0 non-adjustable, and the Teraflex Speed Bumps, and am very impressed.
So your Fox stuff should be pretty awesome! :beer:

 

[kojackJKU]

Yeah, should be a great upgrade for the style of driving we do.

 

[kojackJKU]

I just punched in the dimensions of the gear, should be good to go. The length has me a little worried. as I think I dont have 27" long.

 

[kojackJKU]

just got the action packers dug out from my shop.....all fits great! here are a few photos!



and a gratuitous lift shot and my new hella e codes snuck into the shot as well


Should have my springtail stuff soon! Hopfully get my swag mounted quickly too. Rear will be all set up then!

 

[Comanche Scott]

Oh yeah. Plenty of room even if you added the Springtail side racks. :victory:

Looks great. I also like that you mounted the white letters out. Looks great with the all black rims.

 

[kojackJKU]

Thanks! yeah, thats awesome that everything is going to fit in the back. They have the plano ammo cans at walmart here to fit the side spring tails! one for my tools etc, the other for recovery items. I am going to take my axe, etc and mount them on the molle packs on the rear seat cover. Its great to see more organization starting to happen in the back.

Well, For Comanche Scott, We are FINALLY! taking a little bush trip for supper. We have a school bus up tucked away by two ponds. We are packing up and taking some grub up for Supper time. A little fire, bottle of wine, and some family! Relaxing. I am taking my camera gear and going to run my kodak sport dash cam as well. I should have some footage for you people up here soon! Going to try BRMB mapping too while I am at it as well. Good test of our gear now. It's Crazy, the summer is over and this is our first bush trip this year.

 

[Comanche Scott]

Oh Yeah!

:victory: :bowdown: :beer: :26_7_2:

Got a few photos of our trip, had an awesome supper, filet with mushrooms and salads...and a good bottle of cab sav! We thoroughly enjoyed the day! Gave the jeep some nice new bush pinstripes too. The trail is closing in alot going to our little peice of busdom! ha ha. Photos up tomorrow morning. It was wayyyyyyyy to windy for a fire, so we had to raincheck those.

Whereabouts in NL are you? My wife and are a considering a move to the east coast, and I'm not sure if we're crazy or not.

 

[kojackJKU]

I am in grand falls-windsor, ********** dab in the middle. At this point in time, and the current government thats in office, I would stop at nova scotia if you are setting up camp. We get charged 500 dollars a year per person for the "honor" of living as a newfoundlander now!

 

[kojackJKU]

Well, I never got as many photos as I would have liked....Here are some from our sunday outting...the bus is 50kms away from our house. the last km or so is just a bike trail wide....ha ha...

Here is the rig packed up with our gear!


and continuing on from the trail to the view around the bus to suppertime meal!

 

[Comanche Scott]

That lake looks it would a blast to kayak around.
Beautiful country! :beer:

 

[kojackJKU]

All in all a great day out in the bush! Family time is awesome!
