Here is my first serious build from stock, soon to get a 3.4 swapped in and a SAS. it's a 92 on 35x14.5 SSR's with 4.88 Yukon gears, lock right in the rear tru-trac up front, trail gear bumper with a warn 9.5 ti winch, custom rear bumper built by my bro, rigid dualies, hids with clear lenses, headache rack with a high lift mount and a bed toolbox, 40 lb Danforth boat anchor for flat land swamp and beach winch extractions (works really well), 4runner bucket seats and mirrors, custom cold air intake and borla cat back with cat delete... It needs some love soon, it's been neglected. View attachment 32987 View attachment 32988 View attachment 32987 View attachment 32988 View attachment 32987 View attachment 32988

Hi everybody! I’m Mike and just getting into the whole Overlanding thing after coming across it a year or so ago. I’m located in Madison, WI and recently acquired a white 2006 Toyota Sequoia SR5 with 170k miles on it. The frame is a bit rusty and the lift gate needs some fixes too but otherwise its in great shape. Right now I’m getting it up to date starting with new Cooper Discoverer AT3s but my goal is to get Bilstein 5100s and a set of BFG K02s on there. I also recently upgraded my headlights and fog lights as those were necessary upgrades and cheap. I’m definitely a novice to the Overlanding thing so if there are any tips for starting small off in WI for some primitive campsites reachable by my rig I’m all ears.

So i d'like to say hello from Europe

My Name is Patrik and i come from Principality of Liechtenstein, a quite small country between Switzerland and Austria.

1) Pictures
2) Location
Ruggell, Liechtenstein
3) The Roof Top Tent is a Beduin Classic 170 from Beduin Tents & more. The RTT is from 1999 (!) and the former owner has been with it to severel locations like Africa, Marocco, Jemen,.... so that tent saw a lot of.
The RTT is mounted with Thule SquareBars on the railing of my Volkswagen Passat Variant 2.8 4Motion
4) Overlanding Expirience
Until I got the RTT sometimes I used to sleep in the car, but I always had the problem with space ( I'm 198cm / 6.5f big), even the stationwagon had not enough space for me. I have no offroad experience.

Welcome Patrik, can't wait to see those pics from the other side of the pond. I'm sure that rtt will be a gray addition to your adventures.

Welcome Little Foot, I'm sure there is plenty knowledge you will bring growing up in the great state of Alaska.

Been a member for a while, OB#1965, finally getting on the forums. I've been overlanding since I was 16 in my Ford Curiour with a canopy and a home made platform system. Many many many rigs later, I'm enjoying my 93 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I travel a lot with it, in fact, 600mi trip into the mountains and back this weekend with my sons. I currently live in Walla Walla Wa but travel a lot to Republic Wa where I have a camp that I'm building up as a base for overlander get togethers. I'm always more than willing to lend a hand, a wrench or just a ear. Look forward to meeting many of you. Craig Cooper, ki7aan.

Hey! Name is Steven. Madison, MS

1997 Toyota Land Cruiser Black. Basically stock. Daily driver. I'm focusing on core mechanics right now. Plan is for 2" lift. New bumpers. Basically will be a great camping rig that I can drive daily.

Pretty decent off road history. Prior off-road vehicles: 1978 Jeep CJ-7, 2000 Jeep Wrangler, 2007 Jeep Wrangler, 1996 Ford Bronco Eddie Bauer, 2000 Land Rover Discover Series II, 2000 Toyota Tacoma 4x4, 2003 Ford F-150 Supercrew FX-4 Lariat, 1992 Toyota Land Cruiser (totaled, but loved it so much I got my 97).

Hoping to meet some folks in Mississippi and the surrounding states.

Hello everyone. I didn't get out this weekend, sadly, but I spent the time working on a piece of gear for my Cherokee. It's not done yet but is pretty close. Hopefully this addition will make getting out a little bit easer.

Hello to all,

I am a newbie and currently live in Boston. I have a 2007 Honda Pilot that I got as a gift last October and is my only vehicle. My experience is novice. Back in '92 I lived in Silverthorne CO and had an '85 k5 blazer. I was able to play in the mountains with it.
I am a Mtn biker and the Pilot has enabled longer trips for destination car camping. I have seen a few threads of members building up a Pilot.
I am excited to learn from this group!
Robert
