Overland JEEP Trailer!

[@iamjake]

Hey everybody! Upload time took 5 hours today, I was hoping to get it out earlier! I hope you enjoyed the video though and we can not thank you enough for your support!

[@DadDare]

What are you using to upload? do you have a wifi hotspot device or run a hotspot through your phone?

[@Eagleaton]

iamjake now you need a roof top tent! Rolling in style!

[@iamjake]

Yes, I have mobile hotspot that allows me to do just that!

[@thefishingginger4596]

iamjake thats a sweet trailer man love it

[@HTX_Jacobv]

iamjake I have been subscribe seens you had 20 subscribe

[@mykecollins3255]

You NEVER let down. Some of the most incredible shots to date. So glad you finally got a trailer. Life will be somewhat easier now not counting your partner in crime.lol! I hope Izzy makes you happy. You deserve someone like her. Patiently waiting for the next chapter. Thank you for sharing. Take care.

[@iamjake]

Thank you, Myke - Izzi makes me very happy!

[@VampFaye]

Izzi is ADORABLE! I totally see why you fell for her! Those Grand Canyon shots are some best you've ever taken, Jake. You've come so far and I can't wait for the future!

[@iamjake]

VampFaye - Thank you!!

[@Millerthree]

Man, you owe us nothing but I miss these videos. Those shots, editing, and the energy you have are amazing

[@yjxjtjguy6513]

I have a feeling you're channels going to explode after this video. The four of you, the drone footage, and you're adventures! What more could an audience want!!!!

[@iamjake]

YJ XJ TJ Guy - Thank you!

[@sallyohalloran6650]

Hi everyone from Wales, UK. I am recovering from a replacement knee operation and enjoying your adventures, keeping my free spirit alive until I can have adventures in my demountable 4 x 4 camper 😎 your trailer looks really cool! happy days xxxx

[@ncdean62]

Best spot I've ever seen to view the canyon! Have to say my stomach was in knots watching Annie walk along the edge! Each video tops the previous one! You have a great life! Choose wisely my friend...

[@iamjake]

dean mclamb - Thank you!

[@jeepsterdaddy37]

My aunt used to teach on a reservation in that same area and was so cool to visit her there. The grand canyon experience is so much better there then going to the touristy spots. My aunt had 2 old lift Subarus and we had so much fun bombing around the desert in them. So cool to see you going to a bunch of places I went to as a child and still visit frequently. Cant wait to see your videos from lake pleasant and Crown King. You should try to research and find the race track that was built decades ago and was abandoned. They used it in a movie years ago and blew all the windows out of it. Me and my cousin took his truck out there 4 years ago and it was super cool. I'll try and find out the highway its off of. Its a awesome place to take pics and there's a old abandoned jeep camp somewhere out there too that's really cool too.

[@sherrygriffin6792]

I have a 98 tj with a second hand Garvin wilderness ext tire carrier. I made a gas can carrier out of a roadside futon. The can mounts came from my father who had them on an overhead camper before I was born. I also run a 1945 M100. Its about the same Size and shape as yours. These things are so awesome if you own a jeep. I use mine as a pickup.

[@nakajn4812]

Hey Jake, You’re are supposed to cross the chains on the trailer when hooking up to your Jeep, this way the chains catch the trailer of the ball becomes dislodged. Helpful tip. Stay up

[@iamjake]

Naka JN - Thank you for the suggestion!

[@XjDrZ]

You should put a roof top tent on top the trailer to have a more comfortable sleeping set up

[@willmccort2565]

Awesome moment when you took the extra time to pick up that glass in the campsite. Leave no trace and leave it better than you found it, best mottos to camp by.

[@iamjake]

Will McCort - Agreed! Thank you!

[@internetexpert8153]

Evening about this video is truly amazing. Thanks so much Jake

[@MrDJRadeEEYo]

I love this relationship that's happened on your journey. So adorable!

[@iamjake]

Punjabi - Me too - thank you!

[@isaackrecek2059]

Definitely should look into a Landcruiser troopy! Loads of room. Or even a 5 door Jeep Wrangler, that way you wouldn't have to move the front seats to fit bedding and what not. :)

[@stewartturek495]

Do a video on how you find offroad/ overlanding trails and how you don't get lost lol

[@yjxjtjguy6513]

Stewart Turek yes!! Was wondering the same!

[@BeSatori]

Definitely!

[@H.pylori]

I second the motion!

[@MARKLINMAN1]

Agreed.

[@bwildjournals]

Thanks you two for Leaving It Better Than You Found It.

[@iamjake]

B Wild Journals - Yes, that's important to us to do! Thank you!

[@brianparker130]

The trailer is so sweet I'm glad you got a jeep trailer!

[@nglabrdet]

I shouldn’t be using my data to watch this but I’m impatient

[@iamjake]

Free Bird - Appreciate it! Thank you!

[@nglabrdet]

iamjake amazing footage on this vlog. I can’t wait to see Izzy’s pictures. Im so glad she got to bring her camera. Being a Native American (I’m Mohegan) I’m in such “aw” with that location. Maybe one day I’ll get to go there too!

[@iamjake]

Free Bird - Her Instagram is - Izzi_Torres - Thank you!

[@nglabrdet]

iamjake awesome! I’m following. Now you just got to get to a dark room 😃

[@mikerobbins5049]

Jake, that is one cool trailer. I wish I had one. I know that it will make things easier since your traveling group has grown in size. In no time you will get everything sorted out to fit your growing needs for storage. A roof top tent would be nice for the next addition.... Travel safe and enjoy.. By the way, your Grand Canyon shots were great. We were there a couple of years ago in our Jeep but not off the beaten path as you were. Say hello to Izzy and Annie for me. See you when you make it to Ky.

[@iamjake]

Mike Robbins - Yes, we're so happy to have it and it's exactly what I was hoping for. Thank you!

[@johngerlang1547]

I happy for you Jake. You seem happy it’s much better to live your dream with someone you care about.

[@iamjake]

John Gerlang - Thank you!

[@Hailexx]

WOW those drone shots, AMAZING!

[@thadesplatter5080]

Thank you for following leave no trace rule. Hats off to you!

[@iamjake]

thade Splatter - Yes, we always keep it better than we found it! Thank you!

[@shekharmoona544]

If you don't like it. Try the GSA website and swap everything over. They have a lot of mil trailers on auction.

[@jorgemadrigal8780]

Hi Jake and Izzi, (and Annie), if you haven't installed a brake controller in the jeep, and you're planning on coming to San Diego, I'll be more than happy to help you with that. Great video!

[@christianward1411]

Score on the trailer!!...Could move the solar panels to be easily fixed in but removable...then rooftop tent on the trailer or top of the jeep. Great production!

[@jeepsterdaddy37]

33.858371,-112.505860 these are coordinance to a old jeep camp in Arizona. You should check it out for sure. I took some awesome pictures there. There's no roads getting to it and you have to go around a fence by driving in a dry river bed. Lol

[@iamjake]

Awesome - I'll check it out - Thank you!

[@jeepsterdaddy37]

iamjake Hopefully those coordinance work when you type them into Google Maps. That's what I got them from. I knew I'd never find the place again so I marked it on my Google maps. I'm sure you can find info about the old race track on Google too.

[@derdummeasi]

iamjake don't do it. You'll lose your organs ^^

[@spamanator666]

Do you have any link to your pictures, or can you make one? Genuinely interested in what it looks like. Also can you explain a bit about what it is? Like an old Jeep Club meeting area or proving ground or something? I see that I have driven within 20-30 miles of it on the 17 North, though in a WRX not my JK.

[@jeepsterdaddy37]

spamanator666 I don't know how to do that stuff. I just have them in my pictures on my phone. I heard it was a off-road camp and that's about it. It has a old playground for kids, old bathrooms, and a theater. Its been abandoned for many many years but still very cool. You can see some of it on Google earth. Oh and you could probably get there in a wrx as long as its not lowered at all. We were in my cousins truck that's literally lifted about 18inches on 44s. Lol

[@eddiettownvagabond7476]

Superb cinematography.

[@iamjake]

EddieTtown Vagabond - Thank you!

[@National757]

I really want one of those Overlanding trailers! They are not cheap. But they look incredible! Thanks for sharing your adventure!

[@iamjake]

Jim Gillespie - Thank you!

[@vgullotta]

Dude, the drone shots driving into the Grand Canyon were amazing! Love that trailer, if you spent any less than 7k, you got a deal on it!! Electric brakes, parking brake, 4 Optima batteries, 160 watts of solar power, holy cow man that thing is SET UP! Once you get a roof top tent for it, it's perfect. Man, loving it. Good job!!

[@iamjake]

Vinny Gullotta - Yes, less than $4K - Thank you!

[@vgullotta]

wow that's awesome, nice work, you're going to love that thing. Those military trailers are beasts. =)

[@bhr1337]

can't believe that location you were able to get at the Gand Canyon!! once is a lifetime stuff there. Hopefully the trailer will make things easier. great find

[@edwinrodriguez1587]

Great vid. So happy you guys got a trailer. It's way roomier and convenient for a later set up of a rooftop tent. I wouldn't count on those blue tops for holding a good charge. while they're great for jeeps because of high CCA's, they aren't a deep cell battery. Go by a sam's club and pick up some 6V golf batteries when you're ready to replace them. Those are good true deep cells for a great price. Nice footage from the south rim little colorado area.

[@iamjake]

Edwin Rodriguez - Thank you!

[@djarizona]

You can also flip the axles and that will give you a couple inches lift. Oh and see you at Lake Pleasant Saturday Buddy!!

[@iamjake]

djzrizon - Thank you - looking forward to it!

[@ben10nnery]

Man those GC shots were sick. And glad to help! When I'm done uni I want to try doing a similar thing, you keep me motivated!

[@iamjake]

Ben R - Thanks - I don't think the camera and drone do it justice - it's absolutely beautiful. You should definitely do it - you won't regret it!

[@9teen60six]

Great looking trailer Jake, when you get five minutes spare check out Patriot Campers, these guys are masters of camping trailers down under... All the best from the UK, Ian

[@danceHHmusic]

What kind of boxes are they, didn't seen them at Home Depot. Might fit my as well.

[@CheeseCrackersandaJeep]

Your filming and editing has come a long way!! Its been awesome to see your channel grow! And I want one of those trailers!! Stay safe out there!!

[@Kylejeepadventures]

I just picked my 1945 Bantam Trailer to be towed behind my 1949 Willys Overland 1 ton Pickup Truck. For vintage overland travel

[@dexterelkins2061]

Those are some amazing shots but how did you do it?

[@adamhammond340]

Hey Jake, I'm really happy to see you enjoying life. It's awesome you found someone to share your life with, just remember Annie was there first, and will be there for you through anything. I think some of the situations we've seen make it feel like you're putting a new girlfriend ahead of Annie and that is gonna rub a lot of viewers the wrong way, even if you arent doing that, we only see what we see. Annie no longer has a spot to ride in Jade and she's now last in the intro, those may seem like small details but it could easily turn people off. I'm not trying to be super critical, just a friendly reminder that people only get the information you give them. Stay safe and happy travels!!

[@RumrunnerAdventures]

Tatahatso point is by far the BEST! No tourists, amazing view!!

[@doncovert8309]

Passed you yesterday 12/6 on the I-17 in Phoenix. Cool to see you in Arizona wish I could have stopped and got a photo with you. Nice find on that trailer.

[@iamjake]

Don Covert - Thank you!

[@LincolnintheAdirondacks]

Wish I could travel like this

[@spamanator666]

Lift that trailer a bit and put a YJ matching bolt pattern and same sized wheel and tire as Jade on both sides. That way you have second and third spares in case you ever need them for Jade. Can always take a tire off and leave the trailer behind for later if you get super stranded that way.

[@spamanator666]

Oh crap, I just realized you said pretty much that in the video, I was distracted when watching earlier.

[@spamanator666]

My JK would beg to differ about the bolt pattern! :) That is why I mentioned it just to make sure, who would know by now what lug pattern a 50 year old trailer may have, or Jade for that matter, she no spring chicken herself now. hehe

[@himdude121]

Keep an eye on those batteries underneath that are on their sides. Batteries don't do well on their sides and if they bounce a lot they might start leaking. I'm assuming those batteries are the ones that the brakes will use and wouldn't be fun to have a surprise with your brakes.

[@jakp8777]

4 optima blue tops alone are $1k. You got a good deal and great drone footage!

[@iamjake]

jak p - Yes, I sure did! Thank you!

[@mcclernonck]

Jake, that drone footage is amazing. The lighting, pans, views, scenery, editing, music... oh my word. Unreal. Great job! I just discovered you on KZbin. Keep the adventure going. -Chris

[@DanielTojcic]

Love the trailer! Was hoping it was an off-road teardrop with a cooking quarters

[@liamhalloran7218]

His TMNT is my favorite, he’s had that forever

[@johnrobeson4200]

Yes!! What’s that trail you’re one around the canyon?! 😍

[@vincenth7288]

You deserve way more subscribers with the amount of effort you put into the videos

[@matthewabbott667]

Since you got the trailer to hold everything from the roof rack does this mean you might invest in a rooftop tent ?

[@blackf350]

Should put a rubber flap in front of the lower batterys to deflect flying rocks from your drive tires on gravel roads.

[@iamjake]

Blackf350 - Thank you for the suggestion!

[@avolkoff83]

Hey man, get a roof top tent, you can mount it on the trailer as well (after some tacks install).

[@WanderToGetLost]

I use those bins. work great on top of my roof rack. Nice and cheap too!!

[@iamjake]

Summer Lofn - Thank you!

[@christopherdopp8307]

Jake and Izzy, you should go the Hopi cultural center, they have a restaurant that serves blue cornmeal pancakes, yum! It's at the Second Mesa, Rt. 264. Also watch your speed entering small towns, some have traffic cams with radar. Enjoy!

[@BeSatori]

Damn! That trailer is the shit! What a find. Wish you and Izzy and Annie and Jade all the luck in the world. Good fortune.

[@nicktrent541]

The Grand Canyon looks amazing! One of the places I've never been but definitely going to go there soon!

[@iamjake]

Nick Trent - You've just got to see it in person - the camera and drone just don't do it justice!

[@wickje]

Hey Jake. Do you have or remember coordinates or google map location for the grand canyon view point you ended up in? I know you said it was on Navajo land in the video, but it would be great to find a nice 4x4 trail to a more remote grand canyon view point. Even if you need to ask for permission.

[@Relaxingfolkmusic]

the sandman footage was awesome!!

[@elaineferranco9099]

Awesome looking drone shots!

[@NOOBKING]

LOVE YOUR SHIRT JAKE. TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES!!!!

[@tombrooks8565]

Those of us with AT&T U-verse have that vista as a screen saver!

[@iamjake]

Yakky Doodle - That's awesome and it was so beautiful in person!

[@leonstevenson2406]

Jake your living the dream brother I’m in high school and I’ve watched most of your videos in a few day a while ago and been subscribed since and keep the Jeep life rad

[@iamjake]

leon stevenson - Thank you so much man!

[@BethMoore275]

Been watching from the beginning man the jeep has come a really long way, if they made light bar type lights but circular like the stock lights on the jeep would be sick

[@kevinirwin768]

Amazing drone shots. Nicely done.

[@iamjake]

Kevin Irwin - Thank you!

[@seansteede]

Great cinematic shots of the canyon - excellent video! Loving your channel.

[@janohdegroot989]

That little 'cute' blanket could overheat your beloved Annie..

[@johnpadilla480]

You two make a cute couple! great you cleared out the glass that stoopid peeps left behind.

[@jessep3079]

reminds me of a conestoga caravan in a western the way jade is loaded up

[@carlosleandry12]

You can put a Tent on the top of the trailer? 🤔

[@timothybranton4469]

Carlos R. Leandry there's a old trailer that they used to make and it was a pop up tent

[@haidendill7905]

Hey I live in Tennessee and I have a 2001 4runner and I was wanting to do a trip for a week w one of my buddies on spring break. Where/ what would you recomend me to need or go to

[@1miyito]

I enjoyed this video so much! Awesome job!

[@carlmic7]

I want a dog like annie and a girl like Izzy! Where can I find them?

[@jeffreid862]

I have been wanting one of those exact trailers to toe behind Hazel (my TJ). Good score Jake.

[@iamjake]

Jeff Reid - Thank you!

[@Dgantea]

I knew it. I knew you got the drone shots of the GC! Sick! And im jealous lol

[@iamjake]

[@silverstake88]

That is an EPIC location !

[@888MoNsTeR8881]

YOU ARE LIVING MY DREAM!

[@n-gov]

This is by far my favorite episode, yet! Trailer looks awesome with Jade, you oughtta name Jades baby as well!

[@mlmoore52545]

So happy for you Jake! following your story from the sailboat to now, I️ don’t think your journey could have gone any better👍🏽

[@iamjake]

M L - Thank you!

[@DM-pc4vs]

Great trailer! Hmmm...baby names to consider: Ander, Jaden. Stay smart and safe; greetings from Catskill Mountains, NY state.

[@scottsladeadventures1102]

Cool... I sometimes miss my trailer for my LJ. Another great video. Love the scenery.

[@iamjake]

Scott Slade - Thank you!

[@gerndtr]

That part of the Grand Canyon looks AMAZING!

[@iamjake]

I can't even describe how beautiful! Thank you, Roger!

[@StevelsCamping]

Hey Jake nice trailer and congrats again. The tongue of the trailer you should make longer. That would help with backing up the trailer, helping it tow a bit better and take care of your rear door for your Jeep.

[@iamjake]

HOMEGUY 4X4 - Thank you for the suggestion!

[@darrinhouseman4012]

Jake when are you guys headed back to San Diego.

[@doniturner5077]

so happy for guys living the dream stay safe.

[@iamjake]

doni turner - Thank you!

[@Karroway]

Wow what a great setup your putting together Jake....as always the camera and video work are stellar

[@iamjake]

Starmanis - Thank you!

[@jf_c137]

@iamjake what is the 50 state questionnaire?

[@TheLukeduke90]

it looks like your missing the driver side wheel dust cover on the trailer you might want to get one and check the wheel bearings while your at it

[@iamjake]

Chris W - Thank you for the suggestion!

[@Big21Wood]

Anyone know where that grand canyon spot is? That was so tight

[@3924mikey]

So great to see some new Vlogs. Though I am still catching up on OLD ones. Luv the trailer. And great shots of the Grand Canyon. God bless to you all and look forward to more to come.

[@iamjake]

Michael Kauffman JR - Thank you!

[@BillAndersonNS]

Jake, the drone footage of the Grand Canyon is pretty sweet but I am also pretty sure it has been illegal since 2014 to fly drones in any National Park, with huge fines, handcuffs and equipment confiscation as a result. I have also watched YT videos of drone flights that several months later resulted in a knock knock on the guy's door with a visit from a National Park ranger who's job includes monitoring online videos for infractions.

[@iamjake]

Bill Anderson - Thank you for the heads up!

[@sgbradley]

Nice trailer, I keep my spare on the trailer when traveling.

[@iamjake]

Stephen Bradley - Good suggestion and thank you!

[@Eagleaton]

Ha! I have a Stevens 1965 M-416B-1 too! You’ll love it! Not sure if you looked at my vids when I mentioned it while you were asking about trailers! Well done!

[@iamjake]

Eagleaton - Yes I did - nice! Thank you!

[@Eagleaton]

iamjake I love mine, they are tough as nails and pull straight on the road and over just about anything you’d want offroad. I’d recommend tuff stuff 4x4 off-road tents, mine has been perfect so far. With that tailgate on the trailer you could eventually fabricate a pull out kitchen counter....and the tent would free up the sleeping space inside jade. Another big benefit of the tent on the trailer is that you can have a base camp that you can set up and take little day trips from without having to pack everything back up.
