Lol, I'm pretty much reduced to driving to work and back. Hopefully next year a Moab trip may happen.

I can't see the first pic for some reason.

Wait, commuting to work doesn't count as wheeling? :thinking:

It's pretty hard in a jeep, when was the last time you heard anybody getting death wobble climbing a rock or going through mud? Daily driving is the true test if your jeep is fine tuned.

A box delivered yesterday contained some much needed additions to Tank JK. For those long mall trips led by the astute navigator Overlanderus JKus.

 

[olram30]

Looks great Frank. But why no black fuel cans?

 

[ChaosNein]

Is SOCAL running short on fuel? :shock:

 

[10frank9]

LOL! Yes indeed, you'd better get some as well. VRG is treacherous.

I was looking for the most expensive hardware I could find Marlo, I wound up getting stainless hardware from Lamborghini and the special made RotoPax mounts from NASA grade aluminum. The gas cans are made from a special (rare) polycarbonite mix. The red color is actually derived from Red Fire Ant toenails. :cheesy:

Sounds like some serious upgrades.
Your jeep is in my top 5 on the forum as the nicest, and looks to me like tank needs a jkx trip! Looking great.
