Dang, my memory is bad. I just read back through the whole post. I don’t have any concrete evidence either way. My wife doesn’t let me drive it much these days. In hindsight, I feel there must be something major wrong to over heat as bad as it was. I still think there is a head gasket issue, as...

There was a leak. I was having trouble figuring out if it was one of the lines or the cooler itself. And it hadn’t solved the over heat issue, so I just pulled it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not sure what to tell you, except I pulled the cooler off about 3 years ago. I put 35’s on the Jeep and re geared to 5.13s and the over heating issue seems to be gone(mostly). I had a similar issue on another Jeep. A 1999 wj 4.0. It turned out to be a cracked head. No oil in coolant or coolant...

I love it. I like having all my gear secure, out of the elements and not looking like an overlander yard sale. One downside is cost, but the biggest downside is weight. Empty bed vs empty service bed is about 400vs 900#. So you give away about 500 pounds before you put anything in it. I...

In hindsight the camper would have been better for the Alcan Highway. It’s just a long flat drive, nothing technical. The camper felt too heavy and “big” for the off-roading and remote camping I like to do. Too tall, too wide, too tippy. And I don’t really “hang out” inside it. FYI I don’t...

I was having axle wrap issues when climbing in 4 low. Axle swung forward and damaged the carrier bearing on the 2 pc drive shaft. I bought a DIY traction bar kit from RuffStuff to stop that, then had my driveshaft rebuilt. There are differences between the early 2nd gen and late 2nd gen front...

Factory speedo is 15% off. 60=69 actual. From memory, 2000rpms is about 68/70 on the gps. It feels perfect. The 34s and 410s were way low. I can’t imagine the truck with the stock 32s. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What would I do different....dang that’s a good question. Put 37s on it from day 1. I kept telling myself “I don’t NEED bigger tires, I can go plenty of places on 34s” But man it rides so much nicer on 37s, tons of traction, look ************ and I just generally enjoying the truck more. There...

Top of the World Highway between Chicken, Alaska and Dawson City, Yukon Awesome road. 70 miles of gravel with panoramic views. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just for fun, here are some more detailed picture of my rig. 20 gallon fresh water tank with an RV pump and quick disconnect hose. One of my most useful “mods” to date 4 Rigid pods, 2 dually spots, 2 D2 driving pattern. Decent light setup, but still not the best for long range duty. Sent...

BFGs had plenty of tread, but a few days before I left for my big trip, I looked at the date code, they were made in 2004. They had almost no cracks in them, but I didn’t want to take the risk on a 8000+ mile trip. I’m very happy with the Toyo RTs. @4LowLance on IG Sent from my iPhone using...

Bad to the bone. I feel like I could be friends with that guy! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I didn’t run it long enough to find out. For the price i paid for it used its holding up Decent. I was more worried about the damage to my truck trying to bomb around at 10,000#s. I ultimately decided it was too heavy and tall for the type of wheeling I like to do, so I switched to an RTT...

I ran a skamper and a “Skaug” brand bed. Skaug builds all their beds at 51” and that fit fine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
