    Good forum idea.

    I have been building my WJ as an adventure vehicle as much as a rock crawler. I think that is one of the best things about a modded Grand Cherokee. Capable wheelers with enough room for people and gear. This could be a good forum.

    Great idea. I knew the style of build I wanted to do but I never could put my finger on the name. Expedition rig! of course! I like trail boppin and all that but I want my jeep to be able to get just about anywhere in comfort and thats how I have it put together! Can't wait to post more in here as well as seeing what everybody else can come up with

    I also am doing an expo build so far i got about half of it done. need a new tranny and t/c this spring opting for a 3550 and 231 see newbie tech for my question.I like the reliablity of the manual over the auto. running 2 inch spacers up front and xj coils in back 4.56s and 4340s all around. a detriot out back and arb up front. a warn m8000 on a custom bumper i built up front. need to get the sliders and skids done and the rear bumper. probably stick with the 31 destinations this year but want to upgrade to 2in spacers and 2 in old man emu and 33 next year. cant wait to get it out again. went to the black hills last year. AMAZing is all i cant say.

    I am in the unique postion to do some awsome expeditons. Now I just need to get my WJ up to par. Here are some links to a few I am considering.
    Siberia http://www.offroadexpedition.com/siberiaoverland.html
    Italian Alps http://www.xtrallusion.com/Adventure..._by_Ref_1.html
    Also a few trips self planed in Czech Republick, Romania, Poland, Austria maybe even as far as roaming through the Sahara. We will just have to see. But first some serious mods to the jeep. Everthing from a winch, roof rack, lights, more lift and tires ect. You know everything we all want! If anyone has any suggestions or have heard of anything specific let me know. I'd love to check it out.

    Nice bud, I think we're all drooling over here.

    1 question though.... why a Grand Cherokee (when a Toyota/Rover would be a better choice)?? Different is good though.
