I also set up a trail cam before we left yesterday. There's an insane amount of tracks and scat.

LOL! Yeah, we weren't sure if the local coyotes were friendly or not. (that's just a camo pocket vest with pockets too small for him to actually carry any of MY stuff)

My Infrastructure Development Board is considering a few conveniences that may or may not be added. Wells and cisterns are possible. It's 38 acres which puts me in a favorable zoning situation should I decide to have a well dug. I'd like to keep it pretty low key though.

Most people buy Corvettes or plastic surgery for their midlife crisis. I bought some land. Raw, undeveloped, kind-of-far-away scrubland somewhere south of Wyoming. Can I do a build thread on making my own little area for "overland related activities?" There's no camping without a proper fire...

NOTHING better than a nice, clean CJ build. Sweet rig!

When I had my TJ I made my own out of big stainless clevises, a couple washers, and cotter pins. Just replaced the bolt with it. Wasn't grade 8 but I ran it for 2 years with no issues at all... That was a long time ago. YMMV

It was the same with TJs in the early 2000s. I like unique builds... the kind of stuff you see here. Y'all are rad!

Hey did y'all end up running this? How was it? I'd like to do it this year. Looking for any beta.

HELL YEAH 2 DOOR XJ!

Cool man! I've been driving a 3rd gen for a while. Lease, though and turning it in. But I've been thinking about OBA for my Suburban. Nice writeup!

Me too! Me too! Got my call sign / license last week, and Midland MXT275 with a pair of XTalks as well. WRNF641. Doing my lockdown part, so I've only played with the radios in the neighborhood with my kids.

Right on! I've got a 99 OBS, too...

Yeah, so I was just planning to use it for family and small group trips, but there's a whole world out there that I have exactly 0 knowledge of...

Yeah. I'm hoping to use it mostly for keeping in touch with basecamp while we're in the backcountry (if we ever get to go back). And travel. Sounds like it's not very strict. I've been considering a HAM license, too but stalled out trying to figure out the test/class.

I just ordered the MXT275 and a couple X Talk handhelds. Also just paid for my license and got a call sign. Any tips for a noob? is it basically a more powerful CB?

This weekend I wired up dual batteries in the Suburban. I went with the wicked simple, hopefully effective Expedition Portal $50 dual battery idea. Definitely is NOT $50 anymore. But what the hey. It's a simple setup, and pretty easy to fit into the 'Burb. I used the Cole Hersee solenoid to...

This thing is beautiful. The WJ is one of the all time best 4x4s ever made. Great build.

I keep looking at this D1 because the pics make it look SOOO clean. It's been listed for a while now. Price is high IMHO, but it's intriguing from the "1 owner, lots of maintenance" perspective. 1995 Disco 1 220k miles

Hell yes to that Chief! And WJs are the best Grand Cherokee of all. And highly underrated trail rigs... Every bit as good, if not better, than any Jeep of the last 15 years. But let's keep that between us so they don't get into XJ levels of used pricing. :D

Here's a little camp spot we snagged on Buffalo Pass last weekend. We had a few visitors including a huge, beautiful red fox, a couple people in a Discovery stopping to share a beer and a sunset view, and then a couple in a Wrangler who needed a spot to crash. It was crowded this weekend so we...
