I just had my stock ball joints replaced with the Poly Performance HD Synergy Ball Joints. Very happy with them!

April tends to be cold and snowy. I think the majority of Easter egg hunts my children enjoyed were in the snow. With the snow you get wind, bad wind. In northern Nevada the most prominent spring weather is wicked wind.

Great pics, especially like the racetrack pics. Thanks for sharing!!

After spending what feels like years of my life airing up tires, I would say my PowerTank is my current favorite. Going from 8 to 35psi on a 35" tire in under a minute each is great!!

Grilled pizza is fast, easy and delicious! If you have a Trader Joe's in your area they sell 3 varieties of ready to use dough. All you need to do is "roll" it into a thin crust. You can just stretch it and use your fingers to shape it, brush each side with some olive oil and put it on a...

Yeah, when we're 4wheeling in the Sierra's there's usually something to winch off of, but when we're just exploring the desert it's a different story. I need something that can pull you out of a snow drift in the middle of a patch of sagebrush. Like if your driving from Reno to Bodie off road...

I agree, when you have super deep snow you want floatation. But I feel the average "overlander" isn't going to be running in such deep snow. You and I both "overland" and rockcrawl so we're safer with the wider tire so we're prepared for whatever the trail brings. Speaking of super deep snow...

Actually that skinny tire did awesome in mud. At the time we ran those tires I lived off a dirt road and would take a "short cut" to my mother-in-laws house. It was an old back road that was flooded for most of the winter and spring. I would drive 8 miles through 8-10" of mud and never got...

We ran them all over northern NV/CA and never had a problem. That 4Runner was my daily driver which we often took wheeling on all types of trails from mild to wild. For hardcore rock crawling I run a 12.50 on my JKU, but for overlanding I think the 9.50 would be fine.

Scanned in a couple 33x9.50 pics

back in the 90's we ran the BFG M/T's in 33x9.50 and loved them. Great in mud/snow, had good traction for running the Rubicon, not so great in sand.

Great trip report and pics! So glad you and the family were okay after the accident.

Looks great! Love the color and the bobbed bed. We've got a couple of MJ's in our local 4wd club, great rigs!

Closed for reorganization???? http://www.rubiconexpress.com/

That fender trim made a huge difference. Looks great and more functional!!

The XJ is looking great, we used to live in So Cal and were out in the Stoddard/Johnson valley area all the time. Wish we could go to KOH this year but it won't be happening :( Maybe next year!

I like my Powertank mount, extended 3rd break light, and interior rack

Although AEV makes great bumpers, it's probably more the fact that aftermarket bumpers are made from solid steel palte verses plastic, styrofoam, chromed pot metal.... Add the fact that most Jeeps sit taller than the average stock car, the bumpers tend to not be lined up. I have red rock fab...

A friend of mine just put the Rough Country 4" on his JK this summer. He runs 35"KM2's and is very happy with the kit. I wouldn't have chosen the Rough Country kit for myself (I run the RE 4.5" L/A) but my budget was a lot bigger than his. We've run some 4 rated trails with it and he has no...

Like stated by others, if you EVER go out alone, a winch should be a priority. As for the approach angle, picking a different line is usually all you need. If it's a rocky ledge that's the problem, usually where there is one rock, there are more--start stacking. In addition to the winch, a...
