Used to live in Dawsonville. Miss NorthGA. Would love to get back down there and do some exploring again. Life moved me to Ohio. Like the Commander have an 07 Overland model that I will be modifying as life allows. Wife and baby to keep my busy. Oh and a house with a never ending list of...
Looks like a great start. I have owned CJs and TJs over the years. For two people without a back seat they are doable. Change the Transfercase Shifter linkage out for shifter cables. The stock setup can pop out of 4Lo and into Neutral at inopportune times. Like when you are twisted up on...
Sub I like the build. How is it for stability with the RTT? I loaded ours down for a NE trip this past March. 4 Adults and a 18 Month old, Packed to the gills with the rear seat removed and a Thule Alpine carrier mounted up top completely stuffed. I noticed the weight compared to empty and...
Like the drawer system. Looking forward to see what else you do. I have an 07 Overland Model that I will start to build as the wife allows. It has a 2" BB lift and I added a Thule carrier up top for snowboards. Thinking it will work to start overland trips but want to make a roof basket...
I saw that as well. I have me my wife and baby 1.5-2 yr old by the time this thing might be drive able/usable. Trying to sort out sleeping inside because I don't want weight/cost of a RTT. Don't really want a trailer, but might go that direction for some more creature comforts for the Mrs...
I picket up an LJ for light off road and overland use. Its wrecked and needs frame repair, but looking forward to see how you work with the limited interior space. Is it just you or do you have family to accommodate on trips?
You will find that everything will loosen up. From my experience 80/20 is great for concepts and getting stuff dialed in. I would recommend welding all the joints and through bolting anything you can once you have your design nailed.
Hi my name is Travis. I have been off roading and camping for years. Had an old CJ7 and now I have a Jeep Commander Overland and a Jeep Wrangler LJ. The LJ is wrecked and I am starting a build on it. I like to weld and fab my own stuff.
