New Expedition Build

Gobi rack went on today. Forget the freezing rain, I still managed to finish it just as it became dark outside. I'll take pics tomorrow.

Only downside so far is it seems i was sent the wrong light bar. I'll have to wait to hook up my LEDs and Spod until the new one comes in.

Sounds good! Can't wait for pictorial updates!

So where are our pics?!?!?!

Sorry for the delay! I was actually waiting for the right light bar to come in so I could mount my LEDs and Spod before posting pics.

Here are some teasers:

Sweet rack. I put mine on Sunday. I had a Wildboar rack on my TJ. The Gobi (IMHO) blows Wildboar out of the water. Now I need a RTT, and I will be ready for summer.

Only trick now is to find a RTT besides the ARB/Simpson that will fit on the Gobi.

Wow, great looking rig. I ordered a Gobi last week, so I am curious what lights you are going with.

More of a function of the size of tent I need. The ARB and Autohome fits fine on the Gobi without the need of any extra crossbars.

I need at least a 1.6M tent and therefore need and extra crossbar put on the gobi. Trying to figure out a solution.

Installed the Spod today. I haven't ripped out any of the other accessories but planning on connecting the rack lights (tomorrow) and my ARB compressor and eventual lockers to the switches.

Installing the bezel mount. PITA!

Ripped out all of my old electric accessory wires, relays, and switches and connected them to the sPod. Shrink wrapped all the connections and cleaned up the wiring with new wiring loom. Here are some shots of the new lights on the gobi. I will post night shots tonight.

Looking very nice. It looks a lot like our silver shop JK called the "HooDoo".

Check out our MP Table, UFO's and E-Dock, they would all work great for your build.
