    XJ In Perpetual Progress

    My YJ was originally open, then I installed a rear TruTrac on 33x12.50 BFG Mud Terrains. From there I bought a 2003 TJ Rubicon with front and rear locking diffs on 32" BFG Mud Terrains. Now I am in a 97 XJ that's open/open that I just regeared to 4.10 but left open/open on 31x10.50 Hancook...

    '86 Comanche Long bed, Slow build...

    That turned out spectacular! The color, ride height, wheels tires, it just works. I you don't mind me asking, what are the steel wheels from? Are they 16's? What size tires? Again, really nice job

    Well done, the second picture of the ice road is intense! Are there any pics that you can share of the Convoy in all of its AEV goodness?

    2001 Jeep Cherokee Limited in Pennsylvania

    One of my favorite builds, and a source for a lot of inspiration in my XJ. Good luck with the sale!

    Air compressor power from 7 way trailer plug?

    Well I went ahead as planned. Trial run went great, but no long term field testing yet. If you are thinking about this, make sure your charging circuit on your vehicle is rated for your specific compressor as I am sure they vary. I didn't end up cutting the wire on the clips, but rather was...

    Overland XJs Unite!

    I actually really like the Hancook Dynapro MTs on the Cherokee. I do a fair amount of gravel roads, interstate, and air down to 12 PSI nearly every time I am offroad, and they seem to be wearing well. I do rotate often though

    Air compressor power from 7 way trailer plug?

    This is what I was thinking. I don't want to be stuck with just the RV plug as the only source of power as it defeats some of the usefulness of a portable air compressor being compatible with any vehicle.

    Air compressor power from 7 way trailer plug?

    Keeping it safe is my primary goal. If it works effectively, it seems that it may be the simple solution as well. Utilizing a connection terminal that comes factory installed on most new trucks and SUVs that's fuze protected, is designed with a gauge of wire large enough to charge a 12V...

    Air compressor power from 7 way trailer plug?

    Thanks for the feedback! The problem with the current setup is the length of the supplied leads to the alligator clips. I primarily use this on my 97 Cherokee. The battery is on the passenger side, and the leads are not long enough to set the compressor flat on the ground when I am doing the...

    Air compressor power from 7 way trailer plug?

    I have a Viair 300P portable air compressor that I am debating replacing the alligator clips with a 7 pay trailer connection (this idea was originally given to me by my dad). The connection would utilize the ground and 12 V supply (usually reserved for charging a camper) and convert it to a...

    Overland XJs Unite!

    Thanks, it works really well for our family. For me, 31's are the sweet spot for the cherokee. I built the rear bumper 3 years ago. Getting the spare tire out of the cargo area for storage was my first priority, and I wanted a shovel/ax mount. I built the front bumper and winch mount 2 years...

    are lockers necessary?

    I find that lockers are quite useful in the rocks, but almost equally so in the snow. It is quite frustrating to drive an open diff and have one or two tires with decent traction, but the two that are spinning are the ones in the snow. Less so then snow, but they are also benifical in wet...

    Barn Door for JK factory hardtops

    The Safari can concept would be neat on a mopar JK8 kit, but just with the door inserts welded in. A 2 door long wheel base, similar to your LJ safari cab
