Totally psyched for you. Should be a fun write up to read.
Pack bike IN Jeep!Just a touch....hence why I probably won’t ride out there unless I total my Jeep.
Thanks buddy!Totally psyched for you. Should be a fun write up to read.
Looks epic. Is there beer getting frosty in the cooler?Dropped the Jeeps off at the shipping agent this am. Spent the week loading everything, prepping, greasing and stocking up on extra parts. Flying into Denver Friday then driving to Moab to meet the Jeeps.
I fully plan on dressing like Alan from the hangover for the flight....because I finally will have minimal chance of running into a customer from work.
I should gain a solid ten pounds next week.....
In addition we just redid my buddies JK steering and added a winch....it’s been a crazy three weeks of wrenching.
Some of the days will be beyond my 19 gallon fuel capacity so I added extra tanks to make up the difference. All packed without driver I am right around 5300lbs. That includes spare front and rear driveshafts, every needed to disassemble/reassemble (for the most part) lots of spare fluids and recovery gear.
If you want to follow the wheeling my Instagram handle is #stretchedtj I will try to go live when I can but cell reception isn’t that great on top of the Mesa.View attachment 92401View attachment 92402View attachment 92403View attachment 92404
There is a bottle of bourbon in the toolbox Beer is weird out there because of the Mormon laws, they can't sell beer above 4% abv, so we stop in Grand Junction CO and stock up. Somehow the Moab brewery gets away with selling you can's of their out of state distribution beer, that is 8% but everything on tap is 4% or below. The food and wall art there is killer. https://themoabbrewery.com/Looks epic. Is there beer getting frosty in the cooler?
Didn't you actually drive out West last time instead of ship?

Yeah, last year we built a JL on one ton axles and 40" tires, once the vinyl wrap was put on we drove out. Made it in 41hrs with 7 hours sleep but it was exhausting. By the time we pointed back to Jersey every light was on.......mostly because the systems didn't know how to talk to the new axles yet. The whole Jeep was basically build with prototype items as the JL we had was one of the first off the lot....at least for a Rubicon model. All of the parts were essentially waiting at the shop when the Jeep finally made it.
