    Gordigear questions

    I own a gordigear since one year. Had a problem with wet sides during heavy rain, probably not properly impregnated from the factory. They offered me a free replacement tent after owning the „old“ one since 8 months. That‘s what I call outstanding customer service and why I would recommend...

    Why don’t more people take the WK2 overlanding?

    I use my WK2 as a do-it-all vehicle and am pretty satisfied. Its not built for rockcrawling, but that‘s not the same as overlanding. The WK2 shouldn‘t be compared to a JK, instead to a 4runner, Prado, Discovery or similar. And it doesn‘t have to hide against those SUVs. Of course I get some...

    Turning a Grand Cherokee Trailhawk into one sweet little overlander

    It's a nice setup.. but: Are you serious about the uncovered battery posts? Could you open the hatch with the unfolded awning? Does the Redarc controller work with the new smart alternators used from my16 and newer?

    WK2 Overland ORA2 Skids

    Use the mopar plates, chief products front bash plate and you're set. Transmission plate seems optional for me.. No rubbing with 275/65/18, but depends on the tire brand and the actual size. 255/70/18 (jeep jk takeoffs) should work also. I have a 2012 diesel, still towing fine with bigger rubber.

    WK2 Overland ORA2 Skids

    The front and transfer case skid plate are plastic / cardboard. But aftermarket solutions are available from chief products (australia) or rasta 4x4. Motor, transmission and tank are steel plates. You could try 275/60/18, 265/65/18 or 275/65/18. they should all fit on the OEM wheels. Cooper...

    2016 Alps Interest

    Everyone had a fridge in their car.. They're expensive but one of the best things I've bought for camping so far (Engel MR 40, around 600 EUR).

    2016 Alps Interest

    Let me chime in here.. We've been this year on the "Ligurische Grenzkamstrasss", Maira-Stura and so on.. - you don't need CB, we just had some cheap PMR handhelds, works fine - camping somwhere in the mountains is usually fine as long as you -take your garbage with you, -don't camp on...

    Lighting up the Jeep

    It takes a bit of light output when mounted behind the grille, but looks much better than in front of it. I mounted it with alloy clamps used normally for hydraulic lines and mounted an angled alloy profile to them. Then just made holes on the right place, painted it black and I was done. (Had...
