This past weekend I added a Smittybilt front bumper with a pair of Helps lights and D-ring shackles. I also added the Morryde Jerry can mount and modified it to hold a Smittybilt locking Jerry can mount since the Morryde only came with a ratchet strap.

I don't know...im not very familiar with the LOD roof rack. I've seen pics of it but nothing in person or up close to tell much about it. The Katwalk was a very snug fit on the KM rack so it would have to be no wider.

I've decided to go with the Kargo Master Safari Congo Pro rack to go with the hinge steps. The Ghobi was just a it more than I wanted to spend.

Oh ok...i may try that when my Congo rack comes in later this month. I'm a little worried about drilling into the rack. Right now my limb risers are attached to some brackets that are riveted to the windshield frame.

I noticed the hardtop headliner or insulation...did you notice a significant difference in the inside temperature after you installed it? These year long summers in Tennesse are becoming unbearable with the heat, and these hardtops don't do much good keeping the heat out.

I starting to build my new rig and can't decide how much fuel capacity I really need. I have 6 Jerry cans, 2 of which are for fuel and the other 4 are for water...im looking at one rear cargo rack that holds 2, 2 gallon rotopax containers or a rear bumper/carrier that will carry 2, 5 gallon...
Do you use the defender rack ax and shovel mount or did you make your own? I had the defender mount but I couldn't figure the magic trick to install a shovel and ax on it. I sent it back and made a mount out of Quickfists.

Well yesterday I put new tires on it. Nitto Terra Grapplers 285/70/17s. I wanted bigger but with a roof rack it wouldn't fit in my garage. Soon I'll get some wheels and a 2.5" lift.
I plan to go with the Gobi stealth rack and the LOD rear bumper and carrier setup on the back and the...
I agree. I bought a new F150...great truck with lots of space, but it just never felt right and I traded it for my Jeep after only 4 months.

About 6 months ago I gave up on overlanding and traded my last Jeep for a truck, and almost sold all of my gear. Luckily I changed my mind and decided to keep it all and build a new rig later. Last night I picked up my new rig, a 2017 JKU.
