The Trailgater Tailgate Table is one of my favorite additions to my Jeep for camping. I use it for three meals a day, and sometimes even as a workbench. My cutlery and small tools have been floating around in Tupperware containers taking up the limited storage space I have in the Jeep. I wanted...

Hi All, I spent a lot of time thinking about and researching wheel and tire choice for my upcoming Africa trip. When BFG came out with the KO2 All-Terrain in 34x10.5r17 I was extremely interested. I've always figured a slightly taller, but still skinny tire makes the most sense for long-term...

Extending the breather hoses on the JK Wrangler is great insurance – I want my Jeep to be capable of deep water crossings without worrying about replacing all my fluids soon after. In remote Africa, that likely won't be an option. I'd much rather DIY it than buy an expensive kit, the...

Hi All, I'm right in the middle of swapping a mechanical diesel into my 2007 JK Unlimited Ruibcon, and I'm researching and trying to understand how to best fool the JK computer into thinking the engine is running so I get the stock tach to function, etc. My understanding is that most people...

Hi All, I'm building / designing the water setup for my Jeep to go around Africa for a couple of years. I have the tank, pump, etc. I plan to plumb it all up so that I can pump water through a filter into the tank, then turn a few taps and have it go back through that filter on the way out of...
