    Propane Tank Mounted on Gobi Rack Ladder using custom mounts.

    Looks great! I was going to do the same sort of mount when I had my Gobi but now am going to do the taller narrower tank / power tank bracket on my Teraflex hinge using their highlift jack mount bolt locations. Since the bracket is shorter and it looks like the tank shoulder clears the step you...

    Alu Cab mounted on a Jeep mounted Rhino rack

    That is the Front Runner full length rack - I didn't realize how long that Alu-Cab is. For my 80/20 rack update I'm extending it to full length in order to re-orient the solar panels down one side and have room for a box or snowboard mounts down the other. To do this I'm having to figure out a...

    Alu Cab mounted on a Jeep mounted Rhino rack

    I have used the Rhino Rack Backbone base system for my custom 80/20 solar rack. You can get just the base system and it will give you a solid foundation that, at the six mounting points (aluminum castings on the roof edges) is actually lower than the center fiberglass ribs in the hard top...

    Fridge in DD JK

    Still finishing my electrical system but my Engel MT45F Combi (https://www.engelcoolers.com/mt45f-u1.html) will be back there (replacing a cooler) full time once it is done. The best grocery shopping for us is 45+ minutes from home so it will be extra nice not needing to deal with ice / ice packs.

    WTB: Small Fridge/Freezer

    I recently got a bigger Engel (https://www.engelcoolers.com/mt45f-u1.html) and love it so far. Also have heard many people very happy with Snomaster brand. These are the 2 small ones I would consider: https://www.engelcoolers.com/md-14f.html...

    Ursa Minor Pop-Top Jeep JK

    Thanks Christopher! This confirms the gut feeling I had looking at the combo. I''ll come up with another (likely homebrew) awning solution that breaks down, can deal with wind, and that keeps the weight stowed low (inside) when not in use. As nice as the fast setup/takedown of the shadow is...

    Ursa Minor Pop-Top Jeep JK

    I too am interested in this Gary. I will placing an order shortly for the J30 and am wondering if the shadow will work or place too much stress on the mounting points. Other posts I've seen say that the end (pivot) of the shadow must be directly supported from behind to avoid flex and problems...

    FS: 2010 Gobi Stealth JKU Rack with Ladder and QDs

    From what Gobi has said to me in past conversations with them the answer is yes. About two years ago I tried to get a second flat ladder for the passenger side (to use as a jerry can mounting point) and they said they no longer made that style but would sell me one of the new "corner" ones and...

    FS: 2010 Gobi Stealth JKU Rack with Ladder and QDs

    Hi Robbi, From what I understand the "flat style" ladder I have will not work with the 2015 hardtop (the ladder will interfere with opening the rear glass). It will work if you are running a soft top or no top. The newer style ladders are rounded in a "corner" style to deal with the wider...

    FS: 2010 Gobi Stealth JKU Rack with Ladder and QDs

    Yep - the rack is still available. Updated info on it is: 1) The rack is off my jeep so it needs to be picked up in Incline Village, NV. Installation (mostly of the rear mounts) is a process. You can do it here but I don't have all the tools so be ready when you pick it up either to take it...

    JKU Sleeping Platform

    Welcome and thanks for posting. I'm in the same boat and am beginning an updated build in the same direction. I've got the original Kilby floor kit that has served me well for sleeping in it but am now doing a custom camper build with a fridge, second battery and storage specific to how I use...

    Building a flat floor in my JK, HDPE, Richlite, Marine Plywood, Aluminum.......

    I've got well used and loved original Kilby floor kit I'm going to sell when I get around to building a raised aluminum custom camper setup. I have considered goose gear for the fit finish and time savings but their system even when you buy all the parts is not exactly what I want design and...

    FS: 2010 Gobi Stealth JKU Rack with Ladder and QDs

    I'm selling my 2010 JKU (4 door) Gobi Stealth rack to make way for a planned J30 camper top purchase. I paid over $1800 shipped and am looking to get $900 (cash) toward the J30. The rack was purchased new for my 2009 JKU and has been on it since 2010. It is in great condition. It has the older...

    JKU Tire Opinions?

    I've been running 33"x10.5 15 Duratracs on a 2009 JKUR with no lift for about 4 years now and they have been great. From Montana ice & snow to heavy wet Sierra cement they have been great winter tires. They have performed well on sand, gravel, decomposed granite / deep silt, in water and aired...

    JK Wrangler Unlimited Cargo Area Auxiliary Battery Shelf

    Nice work on the whole install - I may use your idea for the external solar connection location! I had my extinguisher setup like yours for a long time and finally changed it to a quick release setup: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sdk-firexmntdag It takes up a bit more room as it...

    David, I'm 5'11" and it fits great. The MR sizing info is here: http://www.mysteryranch.com/fitting-and-sizing The reason it looks like a Dana Design is because it is a "Dana" Design - my understanding is he started Mystery Ranch once his non-compete expired after selling the original Data...

    jeep-N-montero, I'm looking to set it up more for long term camping on the road so I'm interested in components for a LiFePO4 solar install (100w panels, charge controller, batteries, etc.), ARB/Engel (37/35L) style fridge, higher end LED lighting, HAM/scanner equipment (Yaseu mobile/HT...

    I've got too many Mystery Ranch packs so I'm selling the largest, my G5000. This pack is in brand new condition. It is large enough for long trips without re-supply, hunting or winter trips with bulky gear and can be compressed down for smaller loads easily. It has the highly regarded Mystery...
