Recently we headed up to the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Georgia for a Meetup with other overlanders hosted by @Super_overland outfitters. The event took place in Clayton, GA a small town not far from the Georgia Traverse and lots of other forrest service roads. It was a great chance to meet other like minded folks in the offroad community on a smaller scale compared to Jeep Beach and the Save EXPO. Lots of folks were interested in the new@crescent-kayaks Crew mounted on the @CVTCascadiaVehicleTents Mount Washington.
We'll be doing several kayaking videos in the future, and hopefully see some of you at either the meetup scheduled in August, @greatsmokymountainjeepinva532 or @OverlandExpo East.
I really like these grass roots events, where people can just hang out and share build ideas.
Check out our: Epic Cross Country Trip covering 5,000 Miles, across 12 States, in only 13 Days. We hit Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska on our way out to Wyoming. On the Way Back to Georgia after spending some time in Cody Wyoming to see, Yellowstone, the Buffalo Bill Cody Museum of the west, and visit the Buffalo Bill State Park we passed through the Big Horn Mountains and went to Devil's Tower. We also took the opportunity to visit Mount Rushmore as we passed through South Dakota, as well as stopping in at the Wall Drug Store. We made our way back through Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri and drove past the home of Laura Ingalls Wilder Author of Little House on the Prairie amongst other works. We crossed late into the night through Arkansas into Memphis, and on to Mississippi. Our final leg took us through Alabama and back across Georgia to the East Coast.
This trip took us to many different places and each day was an adventure. There was simply too much to share in the time we had.
The Build:
Suspension: It took me a little over a year to select the right kit for my Jeep Gladiator Rubicon, and it really controls the ride even when fully loaded!
For my personal setup, I chose to go with the @ClaytonOffRoad 3.5" Overland Plus Kit. They have a great reputation. James was super helpful when deciding between the HD Springs or the Normal Springs. I'm extremely happy going with the HD springs and know that I'll be able to fully load the Gladiator out in the future with the load carrying capacity to grow! I also went with the @GoRanchoSuspension RS9000XL Shocks.
I've driven the Jeep now for about 5,000 miles, and the Rancho Clayton Combo is really spot on. I'm cruising around city and gravel roads on as little as setting 3 front and rear currently, although you can jump back up to level 4 or 5. The Great thing about the Rancho Shocks is you have 9 different levels to play around with to find the best ride for you at a budget price! I'd love to install a full set of the Rancho RockGear in the future.

Like most of you, I don't have a lift, and did this in my driveway with the help of my @harborfreight Badland Offroad Jack, and the full line of @MilwaukeeTool M12 Fuel Tools including the M12 Ratchet, M12 Fuel Ratchet, M12 Fuel Stubby Impact, M12 Fuel Hackzall (sawzall), M12 Fuel right angle impact, some Craftsman wrenches, Flexible gear wrenches, dead blow hammer, and several other Metric and SAE tools from Husky, Dewalt, Icon, and others.
My tools and off road jack travel with me on my trips as added insurance.
