I've got a 2000 TJ sport that I'm rebuilding in my spare time and a 2013 JKU that is my daily driver and woods toy until the TJ gets rolling again.

I'll post pics later on.  :D

2002 V8 Grand Cherokee, 2" BB, 31's and custom rock sliders.  I plan on getting a 4" lift in the spring, and hopefully a rear locker too.







Before the sliders:

Here was me trying to get through in 2wd, but it was much deeper on the passenger side than I thought.



Check out this thread too, some more pics and stuff in there.

I am surprised actually, as in theory the non jeep thread should be a lot bigger than the jeep one, but it is practically dead.

Thanks buddy! :D

I just got back in from doing a night run on the same trail, and of course, I went through the same spot. :D  Did it in 4wd this time, so had the momentum to get through no problem. Still had to giver to get the mud flying though.

How's the bike treating you? Does the fat bikes live up to the hype in you opinion? I almost bought one last month at Walmart for 250$ but didn't because it was single gear.

The Walmart fat bike is a joke.

I like it alot so far. The tires can be deflated to a very low pressure.  They have floated over everything I've tried so far. It's all about tire pressure.  I need to buy a bike pump.

Ps

I went with a single speed because speed isn't a issue. I wanted to be able to go anywhere and not think about shifting . I need to watch the ground not worry about what speed I'm in.

Don't have pics handy on this computer but I run a 1996 Suzuki Samurai on 35's in Phillipines and a 2010 JK 2 door on 37's and a 2013 Toyota Tacoma on 33's in the US.

I put a deposit down for a proper 4x4 last week, should be picking it up next week all being well.

Land Rover Defender here I come :)

It's a 2011 110 hard top (the 2 seat, LWB van version) with tall and skinny tyres (almost always the best sort) and a Warn winch that's going to need some attention because it looks like it was previously used by a muppet.

The list of things to sort out is fairly extensive, being as it's a Defender and include properly sorting out the chassis corrosion protection, sound proofing and insulating, putting a false floor in the back with drawers under it and improving the lighting - probably just some LED headlights to start with.

Posted this in the Jeep thread, but there were more than just Jeeps on the run, so might as well post it here too. :tu:

Went on a good run yesterday.  Since we had 735.24 feet of rain last week, there was TONS of mud to be found!!! :D  I have around 3 hours of video to go through, and here part 1.  I've said it before, I'm no video editor, so hope it's OK.

Picked her up on Saturday.
I've already spent my toy budget on a load of soundproofing and corrosion prevention materials  :facepalm:
It came with a free winch though  :tu: It was the same price as various others I'd looked at but had that and the roof rack already fitted.

We we're talking about Landcruisers on a thread somewhere on MTO but I can not for the life of me find it or remember which one it was.

Anyhow I said I would post a picture of my current Landcruiser that has been heavily modified. So since I could not find that thread I thought this would be a good place to put it. This does not belong to me but is a work truck.

The idea is to blend in but if you look closely at the windows you get an idea of what it is about.

Also turbocharged motor and heavy springs and shocks to handle the extra weight of "stuff"
