I feel like Good Deals and Retail Stores don't really go hand in hand anymore. You get a limited selection at a rate that is not competitive. Cabelas and Bass Pro have the standard racks and I believe they offer an extension now. I went with a Rola Rack that I got from Amazon and I think it...

Looks great! Surprising how little love the WK2's get. You're right, they are great looking and capable. Imagine all the haters will love them when they are as cheap as WJs are today. What else you got in the plans?

How did you secure the compressor? With the gas tank below, I was too scared to drill down into the tire well.

Quite happy with how the paint job turned out!

Painting is under way!! Got the wife helping me as we are doing the Roll & Tip method. The wood is pretty porous so I am not totally sure it was necessary but we are about to start the 3rd coat and it is looking pretty good.

I have begun customizing and modifying the trailer to my needs. I picked up a Trailer Tongue box recently from Harbor Freight and bought a Jerry Can with mount to mount the Eccotemp water into. Initially I thought the paint job would come later down the line, but as I thought about mounting...

3 out of the 4 posts above were helping give me some pointers and had some northern sites that are/were? not closed off due to fire restrictions These fire restrictions really are putting a damper on things I believe I heard somewhere that the reservations aren't under fire restrictions but...

TIL there is an app! Sometimes it's helpful to uninstall and reinstall and app. Or if you want, you an just clear the app storage and cache. It is also possible that notifications were turned off at the system level and not the app level. Might be worth checking that too

Wow, thanks to all of you for the answers! Unfortunately we didn't gt out of town last night since I wanted to change out a shot motor mount first. Took up part of the day and we didnt have enough day left to pack and role out. Got plans to go to Saguaro tomorrow so we will be hanging tight...

Where can I do some disbursed camping in cooler weather? Sounds like everything is closed due to fire restrictions Wife was interested in leaving for somewhere tomorrow night

Glad to learn about the Dick's option. I like budget options. How many of these could be purchased before reaching the OZ Tent prices? Like 15? Living in the desert I am not too concerned with warmth or rain. If I was, then yeah, I would go for the pricier options.

4 Adults, one hamster wheel on a cross country adventure. Sounds epic. Look forward to the progress!

Pretty nice ride height with the 31's. Believe the matching 32" tire will make it ride perfect. Rear view. Like to Jeep-ify it somehow Look at those fenders! You can see the fade in the paint, Water heater mounted and shower tent setup. I imagine I will upgrade to a pop up privacy tent...

Hello fellow OB'ers TL;DR Picked up my 1st trailer yesterday and will be posting here with progress and upgrades, as well as some questions to pick all of your experienced brains. Pics start in post 2 THE STORY I've been eyeing trailers for sometime but did not really expect to buy one...

Off to nice start! The BB and the JK wheels will definitely give it a nicer stance and get you further down the trail. Happy wrenching!

Yeah, I didn't take many photos either. These photos were the only time I broke out my camera, otherwise I was just taking cell snaps to remember something or to show someone else.

@spoonible @Etoimos I did take some time to get night photos at Expo West this last weekend. Posted a couple photos and posted to a new thread as to not derail this conversation. https://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/night-photos-from-expo-west.15066/

Stayed up a little late and wondered the Expo capturing night shots. If you like my stuff, check me out on IG https://www.instagram.com/moregone/

I was there too but didn't event deploy my awning. With as much as I was away from camp and the occasional gusts of wind it was just a liability. Just setup my kitchen table and hammock with stand. Slept in my Jeep

Hope you all had as much fun as I did! I am sure I met many of you without even realizing it since I was working at the check in booth / HQ! What a great event
