You know, there is some great hiking/kayaking up in the Cuyahoga valley NP and at Mohican but there really isn’t much in the way of 4x4 stuff in or near Wayne county unfortunately. I’ve heard good things about Southington Offroad park but haven’t been yet. My next local trip is probably to SE...

I’m surprised to hear that about the ranchos. They came highly recommended over the bilsteins on another forum by some well respected vets. Was all your experiences on your XJ? Just wondering if that makes a difference.

Thank you, this information is super helpful! I’ll keep an eye on the weather and use caution. Personally I’m all for a little misadventure but I’m trying to hook the GF on my new hobby and I can’t have any mishaps first time out of the gate!

Also interested in this. My dad has a cabin near Caldwell Ohio, very rural area with some awesome terrain for Ohio. I’ve been itching to explore the triangle between Marietta, woodsfield, and the Ohio River. It’s mostly national forest. Hit me up if you want to through a day trip together some...

I will be swapping the axle this winter but mostly because I want brakes and matching lug pattern to my Jeep. I priced them for around $285ish locally. You could keep the stock axle and do a spring over though and be fine

Mike, I picked up a Bantam T3C trailer earlier this year for $500. It needs work but is the perfect size/weight (400ish lbs)for a TJ and can be modded however you want.

Both vehicles are fantastic choices, you can’t go wrong with either. Saying that, here are a couple things to consider. Since you don’t plan on doing any of your own maintenance I would stick to a stock suspension and run the tallest tires that will function. Generally speaking, lifts increase...

Not to hijack the thread but my GF and I will also be on the DBBB soon. Any must see portions or any sections to avoid if traveling without a second vehicle? Thanks

Hey everyone, new guy here out of Wooster, Ohio. Just did a short trip down to New River Gorge Wv and planning another one two Slade Ky. Definitely interested in any local (to Ohio) weekend trips!

Hello everyone, my name is Dustin and I live in Wooster, Ohio. Current vehicle is a lightly modded 2002 TJ and I’m in the process of building a T3C trailer. I’ve always been involved with the outdoors and 4x4s to some extend or another but only recently have a discovered the overlanding bug and...
