Bought and then installed (with my father-in-law’s help) some new rockslider/steps (replacing rockrails that were on the rig when I bought it) and inner fenders (the stock ones were taken off and didn’t have any when I bought it). I’m stoked on the cleaner look. Before and after pics…

For those in the San Francisco Bay Area who aren’t out overlanding this weekend or already have Easter plans - I’d love to meet you and have you join my church’s Easter Celebration tomorrow in Walnut Creek at 10am! Easter Service is at 10am at Calvary Chapel Walnut Creek, followed by a free BBQ...

A few months back I switched from Toyo Open Country MT’s over to now running Milestar Patagonia MT02’s in 315/70r17. Has done great off-roading and is pretty quiet and smooth on-road.

Congratulations!

Awesome! I’ve never been able to make it to one of these, and am planning to (hopefully) be there at TopShop and finally get to join.

Drove all the way up El Cariso trail in Lake Elsinore California with my father-in-law today, moderate difficulty (in my non-expert opinion), fun and challenging, and great to see how my rig and new tires performed. Worth checking out if you’re in the Inland Empire. Sorry, didn’t record the trail!

Welcome, and Merry Christmas!

Taking our first road trip in my ‘07 Jeep JKU (only owned it a few months now) and installed a rear seat recline kit yesterday. Hoping it makes the drive more comfortable in the back for my daughter and our dogs, and hoping the rig does well on our first extended drive. Merry Christmas everyone!

I got my new wheels and tires mounted and installed on my rig last night: Black Rhino Solid’s (17x9.5), and Milestar Patagonia MT02’s (317/70r17), and I’m stoked on how good they look and how good the feel of the drive is on them!
