Hey there! Just over two years into the WK2 game, with a '17 Trailhawk. I've used and abused it a fair bit over that time, including a trans-Canada overland trip in 2017 and extensive exploration in the remote Allagash Wilderness. It's been modified it extensively, and there have been no issues...

OverlandExpo 2018 Just wanted to post an update after a few months of being quiet... the Trailhawk is fully packed and we're on our way down to Asheville for OverlandExpo East! We left Boston this morning and made it 440 miles southwest to Harrisburg, PA where we're staying with family. Weather...

Best bet is to sign up on TacomaWorld and PM ChandlerCOE through the Waypoint RTT Thread.

Hello my friend! Great to hear from you again. I appreciate the kind words about the Jeep and the photos. I do my best! It's great to hear the instructor was impressed with the WK2. They really are incredibly capable vehicles, even towards the stock end. I've yet to experiment with the hill...

Brilliantly as far as I'm concerned. Our trip through the North Maine Woods/Allagash Wilderness wasn't exactly gentle on the rig and it had no issues whatsoever. The auto-leveling suspension does its job regularly without issue (I disable it when we're in the RTT so it doesn't adjust all night...

Sorry for the confusion. Admittedly, when I bought it I was a bit confused between QD/QT. This Trailhawk does have the QD2 system with the ELSD. I'll edit that first post!

Chief Products Lower Front Guard & Recovery Point Installation Throughout 2017 I ran the WK2 with the OEM lower fascia. During the installation of the Hidden Winch Mount by Chief Products, I was able to trim it cleanly to fit their hawse fairlead, but some off-road trips and high snowfall made...

So the last month has been crazy, we bought a second house somewhat unexpectedly, two family members died, work was all over the place, we had our annual summer overland trip with the local club, and tried to "relax" on top of everything else. The Jeep got over 3,000 miles in August alone, and...

Didn't reprogram, I'm almost entirely sure there isn't a way to, though I may be wrong. I've got a 1-2 mph difference going 60 so I wasn't all that concerned about it for the odometer or speedo. If you hear of a way to reprogram, let me know... dealership *might* be able to but I was under the...

Waypoint RTT by COE Vehicle Solutions So way back in March I placed an order for what at the time was known as the Gen.3 version of the “Tacoma World Group-Buy RTT”. In the time since it has been branded, and an actual company has been formed to sell these at the rate the growing demand...

Thanks for the compliments! I'm a big fan of it so far :) I'm 5'8" and 150, and it's an exceptionally comfortable vehicle for me. I've had a fair number of passengers in the back of the Jeep, in the 5'5" to 6'1" range, and have never heard much from them. I'd love there to be more space in the...

Had a chance to upload the photos from our July 3rd trip up into New Hampshire, testing out the new Falken AT/3Ws. Truthfully, I didn't air them down, but running the Jeep in OR1/2 it did a great job, even in some sections where I used to take the Wrangler (on 35s). They performed exceptionally...

I'm touching up some photos from our day trip up into the woods, but you'll get to see some awesome in-action shots pretty soon. For now... here's the spacing at the different ride levels: 265/65 - OR2 Height by 2180miles 265/65 - OR1 Height by 2180miles 265/65 - Normal Ride Height by...

Tire Overhaul - Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws So after a few months of behind-the-scenes work, I'm excited to announce a new partnership with Falken Tires. The WK2 will have the OEM Goodyear Adventure tires replaced with the new Wildpeak AT3W all-terrain tires. While the Grand Cherokee can actually fit...

Thanks TT! Hitchgate arrived yesterday at about the same time I landed in Denver for a week... great timing! So I'll have to wait until the end of the month to get it fully set up, but I too am looking forward to seeing it all put together. Hey! I do have wheel spacers on there... 1.5" Alloy...

All good, it's been mentioned a few times but no photos because I haven't received it yet to install... I'll be running a Wilco Hitchgate Solo (High Clearance version) to get the spare tire and a Rotopax jerry can on the back of the vehicle. The move to the tire carrier wasn't too cheap (~$700...

So I wanted to take a moment to finish up the dual-battery install in the WK2. After getting the system tested with temporary wiring, I went ahead and got to work making the necessary wiring looms to get all of the electrical components (lighting, radio/comms, fridge) bought back to the Blue Sea...

Hey Camaro- I did not get the off-center, I got the Hitchgate Solo High-Clearance (photo below). I don't often use the reverse camera, but from what I've read it's still pretty usable with the tire. I also have yet to see someone else with a WK2 running the high-clearance version, so if...

Thanks all! First month went by and she hasn't killed me yet with her new title so I think we're good! We just got back from two weeks in Greece traveling around the islands and mainlands (rented a BMW 116d and had a blast bombing around the windy mountain roads in second and third gear...) and...

So I've been quiet for a while now, as work has had me out straight. In the past three months I've flown some 20,000+ miles, and have only been able to spend a handful of days back in Boston, none of which have allowed time to work on the Trailhawk project. I figured I'd check in with a couple...
