You should be happy with the JCR offroad winch bumper. I am running their stage II sliders and am very happy with em. Very well built and can take a hit.

Nice xj man. I love the color as my zj is the same green. You will not be disappointed with the Duratracs. I am running the same size on my zj and they do very well in the rocks. I just put about 175 miles all offroad on mine over Memorial weekend. Sorry about the bad luck u have had and hope it...

You will enjoy the 242 t case. It works great in all terrain and driving conditions. Im definitely gonna watch this build.

I took some time today to sand down and redo the bedliner on my sliders and front bumper. Came out looking good. Will get some pics tomorrow.

So after the 5 day trip into the Maine back country and encountering plenty of mud, rocks and decent trails along with an 1 1/2 drive, the zj performed great. The Duratracs handled awesome and the new shocks were great. So no compaints here. Stay tuned as i have a couple small projects in place.

I am running a 180* t-stat in my zj and she runs about 180-190 with the trailer in tow. When i had my xj i ran the same type t-stat and put hood spacers on the rear of the hood. Made a big difference.

I love the xj. I had 2 in a 10 year period. Cant beat em for wheeling in hardcore terrain. Both of mine were built for crawlin. But my zj is an expo rig w all the comforts of home.

I too have a soft spot for the Manche. I want to find one once we get out to New Mexico. Awesome truck and its a Jeep. Great job so far and will follow the thread.

Cut out the rusted rockers and weld in some 2x6 square tubing. You will never have to replace them again and you have rock sliders too.

I took a look at the axle on the trailer. It is spring under so i see an axle flip happening very soon. It also has the 5 on 4 1/2 bolt pattern so im gonna find some matching jeep wheels and prob a 30 in tire. Stay tuned.

Welcome to zj ownership. I love ours 96 as its our 5th zj. 2 have been the 5.2. Theres plenty of built up zjs on here for ideas and info.

Awesome trip report. Great for making memories w the little one. Nice pics and thanks for sharing.

Im looking at that over the next few days. Thanks for the info.

Thanks for all the kind words so far. My dad gave it to me after he built another one similar but on a 5x8 trailer. That one is awesome. He does woodworking as a hobby. Im gonna check out my local Tractor supply and see what they have available. Stay tuned......

Its in need of a little TLC like sanding and painting on the trailer frame and stain or paint on the camper itself.

So i aquired a homemade 3 man camper trailer. Its built of tongue and groove pine with a metal roof. It measures 9Lx4Ft10ins wide. Its mounted on a 5x10 landscaping trailer. I used it over memorial weekend on 225 mile trip in the backcountry. It has room in the front for 4, 5 gallon fuel or...

Sounds good. Ill shoot u a pm w my number prob tomorrow.

We are headin back up there at the end of June.

We were in map 30. The Bingham to Moxie area. The waterfall is on a cross over road from Troutdale/Moxie pond road to Boise crossover road. It was wet on the roads and trails. And yes i did tread lightly. The camper was back at camp which we were camped right on a nice brook. Saw some rabbits...
