    Canoe Trip Gear List

    I'm not referring to your normal light weight-ish canoe trip, I'm talking about camping at a lake where you can only paddle in your supplies. I was recently at Forked Lake in NY and the limit of time you're allowed to stay at one site is 14 days. I have known a few people to do this and I was...

    JKU as a family overland vehicle

    So I've had my Jeep for approximately a year and a half, 2015 jku. I've traveled to Maine in it with five total, camped on the way home, so much **** it was insane. But I got it to fit. Somehow. Ironically enough, I went to the 'Dak's this past week and I had my wife's Acadia. I think I had...

    Utility Trailer Axle

    Thanks for all the replies. I'm sure it's the whole wheel assembly. You can push on the wheel/tire and it can be pushed in and out about 1/2" or so.

    Utility Trailer Axle

    My (found in the weeds) utility trailer works great, but that's for local trips only. I'm nervous about it's axle, the rims are tight but the wheels wobble down the road a little. I'd like to replace it. Should I go to Tractor Supply or is there an axle that anyone here recommends for such an...

    Silverado Stealth Camp Rig

    It was so cool to meet you and see your rig first hand at REI that one day. Sorry to see it go. What's up for the new project?

    JKU Question

    Sorry I never followed up with this. I've got a 2015 JKU Sport and it's my second Jeep but been a while between Jeeps. It's got power when I want it I guess, enough I suppose, but the auto is what I think slows it down. I'll check the gear ratio and the tire pressure. Thanks for the...

    2005 ish Burban vs. 2010 + Tundra CrewMax with cap

    What are your thoughts as a long trip family of four, sometimes 5, plus possibly two dogs. The Suburban is obviously much more affordable. I like the CrewMax a lot, but it doesn't have third row seating, etc. But it's so huge, three could easily sit in the back. Does anyone have experience...

    How to pack up a JKU for camping?

    I have the same issues, I bought a simple hitch cargo rack from Amazon and it should help tremendously. One of my biggest problems is I normally go with two small children, sometimes their older stepsister comes with and makes it even smaller quarters. And I have two medium sized dogs...

    Silversurfer's M101 CDN Expedition Trailer

    I have a small utility trailer, I literally found in my weeds, got leaf springs but no shocks. Bounces like bad down the road. Will the shocks help that out?

    JKU Question

    Now, I'm no princess and I can handle a rough ride, but after 2000 miles of traveling through Maine, New Hampshire, New York City and Boston, I'm sore. The expansion joints dam near threw me off the road several times and the washboarding on the logging roads was scary. The Jeep only has 5k on...

    JKU as a family overland vehicle

    Ironically enough I'll be doing a week long camping/cabin trip with two young ones and my wife, so four total. The way I see it, right now it equates to packing smaller and less comfort stuff. You cannot change how much food you're going to need, or basic camping supplies, but you just got to...
