    What did you do to your JK today?

    Nothing exciting but I've been putting it off forever. These crusty old battery terminals have been giving me hell for 2 years and I decided they had to go. What an upgrade over OEM style. The only complaint would be the allen key to tighten the new terminals is on the wrong side on the...

    My 2016 JKU overland build

    I actually love the combo. If you are rough on your gear or frequently have more than one person in the tent I would probably go with a rack with a backbone system rather than mounting to the rain drip rails. Ive had the rack and tent for over a year and used it a couple dozen times and...

    My 2016 JKU overland build

    The seat delete platform is made by springtail solutions and is made of aluminum. It bolts to the existing seat hardware without any modification to the jeep. I did place some boat deck foam on top of it to help with noise and stuff sliding around. The fridge is indeed mounted on a slide out...

    My 2016 JKU overland build

    Got my Pelican cargo case in the mail today. I will say these are much lighter than the normal pelican boxes I am used to but still quality built. Its almost a perfect size for the top shelf and still able to open most of the way. The Ecoflow will be mounted in the open space on the right...

    My 2016 JKU overland build

    Project for the day. I picked up and Ecoflow Delta 2 battery and solar panel setup on a black friday sale for super cheap and will be mounting it on the second slide out next to the fridge. The next couple days are sub zero temps around here so I am going to wait a bit for it to warm up before...

    My 2016 JKU overland build

    I will start by saying I mostly use my truck for moderate trail riding and overlanding, backcountry hunting, fly fishing, and camping. I live in western Colorado and see all types of weather and I put a lot of miles on my jeep as a daily driver so keeping things moderately tame and highway...

    Best mud and snow tires

    I run Duratracs in the winter. I have had bad experience with KO2's in the snow and ice and the duratracs are far superior in those conditions. My favorite all around tire is the Patagonia MT2s but cant find a true 35 17" in those.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Got some new shoes for summer. Mammoth D Window black steelies in 17x9 with a set of 35 x 12.50 Ironman MT's. Tried to go with something a little more budget friendly but still more capable than my winter Duratracs. I also recently put on a rough country roof rack with matching tent. Cant...

    Significant Oil Leak

    This ended up being the oil cooler / housing as expected. I had the local shop do a dorman replacement and it cost just at $1000 which is more than I anticipated but happy it wasnt something major.

    Significant Oil Leak

    I have developed a significant oil leak in my 2016 Jeep JKU over the past few weeks. Ive read a lot on the forums and looks like the typical oil filter housing but I cant be sure. Would it cause this much oil to drain on the back of the engine and transmission like this with only a small...
