    Land Rover ideas for Jeeps

    Reminds of the Jeep JK with the Gazell kit with the maxtrax mounted on the side. I would think some form of reinforcement would be needed if there is any chance it could catch on something.

    Land Rover ideas for Jeeps

    The look of the 110 is "it" for me for the idea of an overland vehicle. Thanks for for all the pictures. On a side note, there are several Jeepers who carry Roto Pacs on the sides. Not a jerry can but along the same lines

    Land Rover ideas for Jeeps

    Not a dig to the LR. With a Jeep JKU GVW at about 5600lbs I see more than a few over 6000 lbs and some folks state over 7000 lbs. Having more room my concern is some folks would equate more space with ability to carry more... and more adds up the weight fast. And lets face it, a lot of...

    After a 190,000 miles is anything comfortable to sit i? If you like them and the bones are in good shape have you considered have them rebuilt? A good local auto upholstery shop can do it. Maybe you can even have the heaters upgrade to add coolers too...... has to be a nice feature down that...

    Good ol' tire discussion - considering 2 options

    I'm down in the Reno NV area so our snow is more to discuarge more Californians from moving here rather than calling it real snow - though we can be in real snow in a matter of minutes with the Sierras. They perform better than the stock KM2 did but they could be better. Mine are the 11.5"...

    Good ol' tire discussion - considering 2 options

    I got KO2 33's for the same reasons you mention. They are an AT, as opposed to a MT, but they perform in the mud as you would expect for and AT. HOWEVER, I was surprised to find out much trouble they are having with the rubber. This has, in many cases, caused balancing issues. This has lead...

    Article here The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 is equipped with a 6.4-liter Hemi V8 rated at 450 hp and 450 lb-ft of torque. While billed as a concept, Jeep said it’s an indication that Wrangler fans who’ve been wanting a V8 model “may soon get their wish.”

    Poor customer service kept me from buying one from them. Before them Matt at EO was going to be the USA vendor for them. I had several GREAT long conversations with Matt and I was going to send the deposit but he said to wait until he officially got the contract. There was a thread on this...
