Introducing: THE CHUCKWAGON, my 2022 JTRD!
Alright, So I have been delaying posting this build sheet for too long now, so I'm finally going to give this a shot. This tab on my computer has been open way too long.
The name comes from the fact I want to turn this jeep into the ultimate camping kitchen, as I'm that crazy guy who loves to cook for everyone out on the trail. I'm not a big fan of turning around and going back, so I wanted be able to conquer almost any terrain I could encounter. I needed good quality rugged parts, with special attention to recovery, safety, and communication, as my partner and I do 95% of our wheeling solo.
Wishlist/Build Sheet:
Here we have it in all its stock beauty:
First Mods go on, as we couldn't wait to get out and start camping for the summer:
At the end of this summer, two days before we left on our 5,500 mile road trip across the western USA, all the off-road capability goodies go on, crossing our fingers nothing goes wrong mid-trip! (Luckily, everything went well for the most part, no major issues!):
I will continue to update this with more photos and updates on the build, or you can follow along on my instagram, @chuckwagon_adventures
