I had the same thing happen to me around 8 or so years ago. It was a guys first time on the trail with a nice looking modded Jeep JKU with rubicon stickers. Small lift, tube doors, rick sliders. Looked legit at first glance. However, on the trail he struggled severely having trouble on...
Looks great. Is the rear fender sturdy enough to stand on? Also did you gain any tire clearance in the rear with these? Right now these in my top few choices to go with
I got the pcm flash yesterday. It seems to have cleared up the rough idle for now. They said this latest flash came out last month or the month before, and they haven't had anybody return yet with the misfire issue after this flash. We'll see
I have a set (2) of rigid (ROTOTRAX) traction boards and the Go Treads. If you don't already have 4 of the ARBs, then It would still be a nice option. It's good to have 4 traction boards. And I like the idea having both rigid and flexible for different circumstances
Just using the suspension is fine (and I have soft suspension). It will move some, but when sleeping I haven't noticed any issues with significant rocking either with my own movements or the wind. But to level it get GoTreads. They function as leveling blocks (which can be varying heights) and...
Viking endevours is occaisnionaly open. It's out by Medina. Then Hidden Falls, Trees Ranch, Canyons, K2, Wolf Caves, then its gets farther out, Escondido Draw, Big Bend State and National Parks, Northwest ORV, Bridgeport, and the muddy places in east texas. There is a muding park inside San...
Mine took 2-3 months. after ordering, but that was earlier on. I think they are faster now.
PINS is the Padre Island National Seashore. It the longest stretch of undeveloped barrier island in the world. 60 miles of beach driving with varying conditions, (then you have to drive back as its a...
I'm not running the event, but I'll bring all my recovery gear. It's up to yall to talk me out of doing dumb stuff though. I'm known to over do it....
I've been to Hidden Falls several times. The great thing about it is there are often bypasses and plenty of trees to winch off of.
You could always bring the JLUR, if the JT isn't ready. Just to see what the JTs can do in person. We have to be a little more choosey with our lines than the shorter wheel base jeeps.
I have a philosophy when it comes to building my Jeeps. I always start with recovery, armor, followed by lift/tires, and any additional beef I need. Then "luxury" item, like tent lgihting, awenings etc. Id rather have a built jeep that can get me home more than a comfortable bed. So once I...
Ok. Been a while since I last posted. A lot has changed since my trip to Rausch Creek.
I've installed the Rebel Half Rack, the Overland Vehicle Systems Nomedic 3 tent, the tuff stuff changing room, the dobinsons 8x9.8 ft awning, the JCR short roof rack, Artec front lower control arm skids, and...
Welcome. The correct term is Jeeper.
But yes joint your local jeep clubs. Also there's a Texas Jeep gladiator Facebook page.
There is a run planned to Hidden Falls (about 1.5 hours form San Antonio Nov 6th-8th). I plan on goin and camping out there on the 7th.
I am from SA as well. Hope to see...
It was a $20 Amazon tent (it went up in price I guess).
It fits perfectly in the bed. I slept on an inflatable camping pad and blankets. I'm 6 foot. Only rant enough room for me. Unless you want to get real cozy.
Wow. I forgot to update. Below are pics from various Virginia trails (including Peter's Mill Run), some West Virginia Trails and camping and two trips to Rausch Creek (both sides of the park) (did all three BoH trails).
Got some big things coming for labor day.
