Hi Jacob I have noticed you buy the best of equipment . that is one of the mantras of over-landing i see .buy the best . I am in the middle of converting a Mitsubishi JB 500 to a overland type . I am replacing all the systems ,what i am trying to do is make it plug and play . that way when i...

Thanks again superduty . I received my 50 QT in about a weeks time . I have not taken it out of the box yet ,but the box looks perfect so the fridge should be as well

I know for gas saws they make a nylon case . it would probably take up double the room though .better your saw then your pee pee

Looks like you are well organized and have what you need . I do not think i would like the chain saw inside the vehicle though . O i just took another look ,is it battery powered ?

thank you pathfinder ,mine are on the way . as a group we should do this kind of thing more often . someone had posted that ARB had a sale on fridges , i saved 300 bucks . that is a lot . maybe the site could have a header for Group buys .

Thanks Bobzdar ,I agree completely with your thinking . What i have taken away from this thread and watching a bunch of videos . Is building a weekend worrier or rock crawler and a over-lander are two different things . there is a guy from south Africa that has very good advice . keep it simple...

hi Jacob i am reading your build for the second time now . thanks for doing the two door build . it is neat to see how it has evolved . I think you are on your third stove now . I am trying to get started on some thing similar . but i think i have already changed my mind about a RTT on the jeep...

Wow that's a nice set up . Hope you have some heat in there !!! I was looking at a all aluminum 4x6 utility trailer with a rack and RTT . but I like your tear drop. Does it have the kitchen in the back ? I was thinking of camp kitchen in the jeep ,that way i could just grab a small tent and a...

O I did not know you could disable it .Do you need to go to a dealer to get it done ? I know there are some comments about driving at higher speeds in low range . and i don't think they were talking about a Rubi , but i was doing some simple math and a 4 to 1 transfer case going 60 mph...

Thanks for all the comments .vtsoundman you have helpful suggestions . I do have a bit of experience ,my first job at 15 years old was plowing snow with a international Scout . that was 50 years ago though . we only used low range to work never to drive around . now death wobble that's...

one pair please , and thanks for doing this

Thank you for the tip . I have been looking ,but could not bring myself to pay full price. Looks like you save about $300 on a 50 quart.

I do not know if this has been suggested or not . But for under your mattress to stop dampness and mold ,I was thinking about a piece of what is put on a new basement before back fill , It is called drainage board ,dimpled plastic sheet that lets the water run through .Also today at Rona i was...

Thanks ks . yes the first thing i ask new or used is does it have air and cruse .two things I wont be without . I never liked the clutch in my 2012 . It is the hydraulic . no clutch engagement feedback . If you read the build sheet on a Willys ,it looks like they start off with a sport add...

Thank you every one for the time you have spent . Interesting and respectful comments. I do not plan on rock crawling , and hopefully will start the trip the first of next July. (wife is a teacher ) This year is the east coast of USA and Canada .would this be a good compromise ? I have found a...

Thanks guys . I will do more research . My last jeep was a 2012 sport with standard trans . sold it a couple years ago and miss it . the only things i need for sure is air and cruse . my wife bought a renegade limited last fall,and it is sorta nice having all the bells and whistles. I am going...

Thanks for the feed back . so first off I will check what gears the Sahara has . I do realize the the Rubicon is a much more capable jeep . but if 90% of the trip is on paved and gravel roads , and 10 % dirt . then the sahara sort of wins out for me . plus after the trip it is my main...

so I went by my local jeep dealer today to see if they had any used JK unlimited in stock . They only had one . what they did have is a left over brand new 2017 Sahara fully loaded with leather . he also had a brand new 2019 Rubicon loaded ,black beautiful rig . so this is part of the question...

sorry i am not good with computers . but this is what i ordered and i have tried it on and it fits . moves the wheel out some ,but that is good i think . Amazon.com Pacer 297B soft 8 black wheel 15x8/6x5.5-12mm offset . $94.70

How do you know when they are on Sale ? I was just at Costco and they are 1,999. checked Amazon and they are over 3,300 ,so Costco looks to be a good price even at the normal price. Could you let me know if they go on again ,thanks
