This is a two part deal... I have not finished the second half... but will soon. This trail is considered to be the hardest "natural" trail in Montana by many. We loaded em up and went for it! Hope you enjoy! Here is part 2! Montana JEEP TRAIL: McKelvey Lake part 2 2024 (youtube.com)

A scenic trail with a moderate rating from a couple weeks ago!

We had a family member show up with a Cybertruck...so we tested it on a jeep Trail!

A 2024 attempt to make it through the Magruder Corridor, a road placed between two wilderness areas and two states. Over 100 miles long- one way, dirt most of the way (or snow). This was my first time there... over a million miles of wilderness on either side of the road. Enjoy part 1!

Didn't get to camp this weekend, but I did get to check out the lower roads in my backyard... lower roads had less snow than normal this year...High country still buried. We were alone... so no deep snow or mud stuff... just cheacking out to see what is open for camping for the next couple of...

Low snow levels, but a great day!

I've noticed a couple of lift manufactures and shock designers for the gladiator move the shocks outward on both the top and the bottom mounts. what would be the advantage of moving them 2 to 3 inches out on each side? Many lift kits and shocks have no relocation mounts... any suspension gurus...

This is my install to have heat for those 4 months of our year in the fall and spring that get below freezing in Montana.

We love this spot... not difficult but a great trip!

We went completley around one side- and then through the Pryor mountains! Found some fun! Snow about half way through!

I'm thinking this winter to update all 8 control arms. Any good or bad experiences with any brand you would like to share? I have looked at Metal Cloak, things with Johnny joints, Clayton girro joints.... On my jk I had a lot of maintance and replaceing joint ends on the control arms. I had...

I have wheeled at night...never for as long as this...but I also filmed it... a cool video of a trail that will soon be closed.

I had a request for a "walk-around" and so here it is. I just point out my modifications, and and what my overlanding set up is. I also show how quick it can be loaded up or removed. I still missed some things... like the synergy ball joints... rock lights... but I really did list most...

A few pics from this past weekend!

I have been given the next 30 days off... starting the 15th. We are going to go through Wyoming, Utah, Arizona, California, Oregon, Idaho, and back to Montana. We will hit lots of remote camping, a few motels or cabins, a few campgrounds, and a few nights with realitives along the way. I hope...

Yes- I made a skid plate for the tire... I guess that is what you would call it. I got stuck badly once dropping into a mudhole and the center hole of the tire had a giant rock get stuck inside it before my tires couldn't touch the ground in the rear...front tires were in the mud. The intent of...

This is a self made option to strengthen those various brads of side steps, etc... that mount to the pinch seam. Makes them much stronger and prevents bending the pinch seam near mounting points.

This was the shakedown trip for the Gladiator in its new configuration! ARB lockers, 37 inch tires, new skids, 488 gears... and we used the topper and a tarp as a bed tent for a couple of days. 2 Ghost towns, 5 trails, drove under a mountain for a mile in a tunnel filled with water... Great...
