    FOR SALE Set of 4 Wildpeak M/T 285x70r17 Tires

    Set of 4 Wildpeak M/T tires. Great condition. Took off truck at about 10K miles. No issues, just went to a different size tire. Ran good in all conditions, and for a M/T tire they were fairly quiet. Originally they were about 18/32 tread depth, currently around 15-16/32. Asking $725.00...

    2021 Jeep Gladiator - 3.0L Turbo EcoDiesel - overland build

    For those thinking of changing out their steering stabilizer on the Jeep JT (Gladiator), or the JL, I thought this was an interesting video.

    2021 Jeep Gladiator - 3.0L Turbo EcoDiesel - overland build

    Game changer...That's really the first thing that comes to mind. Many - myself included - have experienced "loose" or a "wonder" in the steering of their Jeep. There have been posts about getting steering boxes replaced (some by a recall), or doing other more costly modifications, some with...

    The Fed Ex guy also dropped off another item. Looks like I have another project to get done.

    2021 Jeep Gladiator - 3.0L Turbo EcoDiesel - overland build

    Seeing as my shell won't be done until the end of Summer, I had to make a decision. My Yakima bedrack was functional, and since I already had it, I have made it work. I did have some issues of trying to fit a few larger items in the bed of the truck without having to take the rack (or just...

    2021 Jeep Gladiator - 3.0L Turbo EcoDiesel - overland build

    Thanks. Yes, got the ARE shell ordered. I think the conservative estimates put it in around late Aug. or early Sept. I've had thoughts about going with a Softopper instead as I've seen a few on the Gladiator, and I like how it fits on the bed of the truck. I could pair it with the...

    2021 Jeep Gladiator - 3.0L Turbo EcoDiesel - overland build

    Got the Black Rhino Kelso wheels installed today. The stock Jeep wheels were 17x7.5's with a +44.45 offset. The new wheels are 17x9.5 with a 0 offset. The tires sit just slightly outside the fenders giving it a little wider stance. My plan is to upgrade to either a 35.12.5, or a...

    2021 Jeep Gladiator - 3.0L Turbo EcoDiesel - overland build

    Got the Smittybilt winch installed today. There’s not much room in the engine bay with the diesel, but I was able to run the wires up the passenger side of the grill and engine compartment. The positive wire was just long enough to reach the terminal. Next step is to determine if i’ll do...

    2021 Jeep Gladiator - 3.0L Turbo EcoDiesel - overland build

    Thanks. I'm hoping to be "done" by the fall. The biggest question right now is suspension. Mopar makes a really nice 2" basic lift specifically designed for the additional 400 lbs. of the diesel engine, and still spec'd out with Fox shocks. Depending on where you get it, the lift ranges...

    2021 Jeep Gladiator - 3.0L Turbo EcoDiesel - overland build

    I've done plenty of builds to this point. I've made mistakes from time to time, and added (or removed) things I second guessed myself later on. I am hoping to be better this time. First, I think we all have a vision of how we want something to be in it's "final" form. I began making a...

    2021 Jeep Gladiator - 3.0L Turbo EcoDiesel - overland build

    A number of years ago we purchased one of the first Jeep JK's. I loved the way it "felt" when I sat behind the driver's seat for the first time. The JK had a lift done by the dealership, and other than a Ursa Minor top, I didn't do much to make it exploration ready. We had some issues along...

    SPOTX

    I'm sure if you got down to the bit for bit tech stuff the PLB might have a stronger signal, but I would assume it would be marginal, and each needs a clear overhead to make most transmissions. My understanding is they use a different satellite system, and the notification for help runs...

    SPOTX

    I realized I did not cover the navigation function of the SpotX. On the main screen there is a "Navigation" selection. When this is selected, you'll be taken to a second page with four options. The compass of course shows the typical heading information on the left side. On the right...

    SPOTX

    Several things came into play. I had (and still have) a Garmin 60csx GPS that had all the bells and whistles of the inReach I would use so my GPS needs were already met. Although a one unit that does it all sounds enticing, I liked having the GPS and Satellite communication separate simply...

    SPOTX

    In September of 2018, I made a decision to purchase one of the Satellite tracking devices. I had a few missed connections with others in my group due to an inability to get a message, or convey my location, due to being out of cell phone range. I also help teach a class which includes a...

    2018 Toyota Tundra Double Cab build

    One of the hardest things to find was an awning mount for the Yakima round bars. When we had our previous trailer, our awning mount was a beefy "L" shaped mount that directly connected to the Yakima track system, but we were running the awning off the back of the trailer. I liked the mount...

    2018 Toyota Tundra Double Cab build

    I thought I'd do a separate post for the awning, but it is also part of our camping setup. I purchased the ARB 2000x2500 awning, and awning room. I've had a Tepui set in the past, but I sold it when we got rid of a camper it was usually kept on. Most of the awning out there are similar in...
