    I'm running out of time so I enlisted the help of a new (to me) shop to finish up some install items. ARB twin was installed, air lockers plumbed and stainless brake lines done.

    Oh, and she finally got her windows tinted :)

    We had a charity drive last week and she got to stack on a couple of Jeeps on 40s

    Just got home form the Ozarks, it's a beautiful time of year there.

    We took both Jeeps for 3 days in the forest, base camp style. The kids drove my JKUR and the wife and I (mostly the wife) drove her '18 JK.

    Took the wife, kids, dog and both Jeeps for a few days of camping and wheeling thru the Ozark National Forest.


    Our first day was spent trekking thru the Wilderness Rider Buffalo Ranch LINK

    Good scenery but the trails could have been better IMO. Still better than a day at the office upload_2019-3-20_11-3-3.gif

    We went into the Ozark National Forest in the late afternoon and set camp around 6 that evening.

    The next day was spent exploring trails in the forest and a small hike for some of the group, while others went to set camp.

    The third day was the most challenging and we were down to three rigs. There were more water crossings than we usually do and we all thought they were the deepest we'd done as well.

    At the end of the day we came to a controlled burn and had to re-route around it.

    Wow! Awesome looking trek through the Ozarks. Gotta leave the East coast more often. Thanks for sharing the adventure.

    Ordered the wife one of the new Warn VR EVO winches. Did the 10k synthetic, should be in in about a week.
    Just in time for another Ozarks trip coming up in October.

    Winch is installed and we've given it a couple of test runs. Have yet to use it though.... :(
