    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Just a couple of improvements to my 2004 TJ Rubicon this past weekend (with the help of my brother): Teraflex 1” body lift; Brown Dog 1” rise engine mounts; Teraflex BellyUp skid plate with Rubicon compressor mount; Novak transfer case shifter cable assembly; Metalcloak rear upper and lower...

    Gazelle Tents

    A combination of smoke, mirrors, and magnets! The Gazelle website lists the T3 at 76”x76” deployed. Our recent trip to the Canyonlands, my brother used a cot that fit easily at 75” but was bulky to pack. Not a problem since he drove his pickup but would be a different story with my TJ. Our bud...

    Carrying 10 gal of gas and 10 gal of water. I siphoned both gas jerry cans into the Jeep with just over a quarter of a tank by the end of the trip (Hanksville - The Neck - Ekker - Millard - BLM site on the Hite Trail just south of the NP - Sunset Pass - Hite Trail to the gas station at Hite)...

    Thanks! She’s been pretty solid since 2004. Besides regular mx and mods (last couple of years), had to R&R the AC compressor (late ‘05 under warranty) and just this year the oem radio (it decided to hold one of my CDs hostage).

    Thank you! I have a Clam Traveler, small 4-sided screen shelter, for those campsites with bonus gnats and calm air. It’s relatively small pack size allows it to fit inside my Jeep TJ next to my Gazelle T3.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Ops check of recent mods during last month’s trip to Canyonlands NP Maze District. The Poison Spyder hood vent improved engine bay cooling, the under hood ARB compressor was relatively cool to the touch (compared to last year’s trip). The Rigid side shooters worked as advertised. The Daystar...

    Gazelle Tents

    First trip with my Gazelle T3 and TJ to the Canyonlands NP Maze District. The T3 fit easily inside the Jeep and on the tire carrier (to help dry, we over-achieved wet weather camping qualifications during this trip). The T3s (both mine and my brother’s - he is also an OB member) easily weathered...

    High winds, thunderstorms, rain, rocks or too soft sand for stakes to hold...I’ll just sleep in the Jeep with some additional natural recline.

    Canyonlands Maze District last month. The Poison Spyder hood vent worked well to help keep the under hood ARB compressor cooler to the touch compared to the previous trip.
