I have been offroading for about 15 years give or take a few.

Started out with a 1978 Dodge Ramcharger, got out for a few years & got a 1990 YJ. Now I also own a1998 XJ, & want to learn more about equipping my jeeps for expedition style wheeling.

My Yj has a 220 amp on board weldenator, an XRC8 winch that can move to either end of the vehicle via hitch mount/ Anderson connectors.

Also has a York OBA, & I keep a small shovel & 4 ton come-a-long on board at all times.

I still have to upgrade the drivetrain, but am short on funds for that.

Looking forward to making some new E-friends as well., Paul.

Any clubs in the area for overland travel?
