    Things you do on the trail to improve the off roader image.

    I always take a few extra bottles of water to keep in the cooler. Any time I pass a bicyclist or hiker, I stop and ask if they have enough water. Most of the time they do, but I've handed out a few bottles. It's a nice gesture that I'm sure doesn't go unnoticed, especially in the Arizona...

    XJ RTT mounting Q's

    Take a look here. Chris' Cherokee looks good with the 50" Thule bars and a Simpson on top, in my opinion.

    All of this is great info guys, thanks. Root Moose, keep the updates coming. I'm really appreciative of the reporting. *edit* You wouldn't happen to be taking any pictures, would you? .

    BFG MT KM2 Tires. Too much??

    I doubt you'd get 10,000 years out of a set of KM2's... :ylsmoke:

    Yeah I came across a few pictures of your Jeep while looking around Craigslist... ;) It looks good, man. Are you still selling it? Yup. Among other things. :sombrero:

    SYE for the 242 TC. Does it exist?

    Well I'm getting a 3" medium duty kit, but with all the weight it's going to be carrying, it'll probably settle at around 2".

    SYE for the 242 TC. Does it exist?

    I hope I don't offend you by saying this, but that's the exact type of build that I want to avoid. I want to keep the lines of the stock vehicle without cutting fenders and whatnot. I plan on driving it through Central America and want the most reliable, closest to stock parts I can get while...

    SYE for the 242 TC. Does it exist?

    I've looked into Mr. Woods' stuff. Apparently his "SYE" for the 242 is really a hack-n-tap that he does for you. Am I splitting hairs here? Maybe I'm making too big of a deal out of this. I tend to do that when I really don't want to screw up... But if it's really not that important, I'll...

    SYE for the 242 TC. Does it exist?

    I am hours away from purchasing a 3" Old Man Emu suspension system for my 2001 Jeep Cherokee. If I were to get any vibrations, I want to install a slip yoke eliminator. After researching for a while, all I've been able to find are the hack-n-tap versions for my 242 transfercase. Is this safe...

    Are Beadlocks necessary?

    Throw the 33x10.50 BFG A/T's on your stock steelies. Be happy with an attractive, capable tire on a wheel that goes well with the lines of your vehicle. Problem solved. Now I wish I could solve my indecision so easily... .

    Are Beadlocks necessary?

    Why do you want a wider rim if you're going with a 10.5" tire? How is it more useful? I say if you like the stock wheels, keep them. They'll save you the pain of messing with backspacing and all that, too. If you like the look of black wheels, paint your wheels black. Jeep wheels look good...

    Costa Rica and back, 7 months on the road DONE!

    Very cool. I'm planning a 3 month trip to Costa Rica next year, so the images are major encouragement. Seven months is a while. When, where and how long were you stagnant?
