    Tool Storage

    Hello my fellow overlanders!!! So this is actually a question that began from thinking about downsizing my housing situation (i.e. reading a lot of books on tiny homes and watching documentaries on minimalism...and down the rabbit hole we go). I don't have a lot of stuff, but I'd say 50% of it...

    Dilemma of which to KEEP.... Wrangler or Grand Cherokee

    This is the way I look at it. If you could rate both platforms by offroad ability, the JKUR would probably be like a 9/10 and the GC would probably be an 8/10 (I realize my rating system is probably flawed, but you get the idea). The thing for you to do should be to take a good look at what your...

    Beat to Death Roof Rack Questions?

    Both units are top quality, but for my money the AEV's the one to get. For me it's the slightly lower form factor, better aerodynamics, the 20 lb weight savings, and the $600 cost savings that push it over the top. That said, having seen both I do think the Gobi is quite a bit better looking...

    The "Expedition hat" thread

    Two: a beautiful artisan leather fedora (think Indiana Jones) I picked up in Portugal a few years back for warm weather, and a wool toque for cold weather.

    Watches - ExPo Style

    I've got a Timex Expedition. Cost me $50 on sale, and it's pretty much bulletproof. If i do manage to destroy it (not unheard of, I'm really hard on gear), I can just get another one. Batteries last for about 10 years. My only complaint is that the ticking on it is noticeably louder than most...

    Warmest Fabric/Insulator?

    Just for everyone's information, Mountain Hardwear and Patagonia (and a couple other companies, I think) have recently come out with hydrophobic down, which is essentially down that won't suck at insulating when it gets wet out. I just ordered a jacket with it and I will test it extensively in...

    Made the Leap - 2012 AEV Built JK Unlimited Rubicon

    Have you checked out the MBRP rack? It fits to the hardtop only so removal is a breeze, and you'll still be able to run a snorkel. I don't know if they have an official lbs rating for it but it's strong enough to fit seven grown men on top when stationary. Probably what I'm going with for my...

    Jeep JK spring options... I need some input.

    pilosopo, did you have to get longer shocks or anything with the 1" springs or was it just a straight swap from OEM?
