Hey All,
just wanted to say hey. Although I am new to this forum I am not new to Wheeling or Overlanding as it is now called. Years ago there really wasn't a name for traveling around in your Jeep camping. I bought my first new Jeep in 73 (A black CJ) when I came home from Viet-Nam. Before that I had a CJ2A with a small block 327 in.
Anyway today my ride is a 2008 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with so many mods it would take forever to list. The major mods are Dana 44 front diff with electric disco and electric locker, Atlas twin stick transfer case, 5:13 gears, BDS long arm 4 .5" , 37" BFF mid tires, and AEV wheels. Etc, Etc. ..
We (the wife and I) have been to Moab, Yellowstone, Nova Scotia, and Mt. Washington with more trips to come now that we are both retired.
Also tow a M100 behind my JK that I lifted 4" and added AEV wheels that match the Jeeps. The photo with the trailer is from Bantam Jeep fest 2018 out in PA.
