Rig walkaround | 1998 JEEP TJ

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Good looking TJ brother!

[@Thegravyipass]

This comment should be pinned haha.

[@CBOverland]

Thank you! 🙏

[@CBOverland]

Hey! We used your pressurized water solution on our overland trailer! Thanks for the idea! -B

[@ArkansasOffroad]

@@CBOverland Right on dude!

[@ryantepley3662]

Nice video! I had a 97 TJ lifted and then our family out grew it so I had to get a 4 door. Currently running a 2007 JKUR! I appreciate that you do your videos clean with no language! Makes for a good video to watch with the kids! Enjoy the ride!

[@piasprojects]

Very cool setup. I like how in-depth you went into everything and you definitely did your research with regards to what to where and making sure it all fit your needs. Definitely looking to see your other videos!!

[@joellinares9482]

Super sick. Definitely a lot of new ideas and inspo for my TJ 🥳

[@travisbuck3643]

Love to see some more content!

[@4-WHEEL-DRIVE]

i have the same dana 35 with yukon 30 spline axles shifts for about 8 years already on my 1990 jeep yj and still working just fine plus 35 inch tires , nice jeep tj you guys have , i love overland adventures

[@CBOverland]

Thank you! It’s held up really well, I’m pretty light on the skinny pedal. 😉 -B

[@nathanlugo593]

Incredible rig!!! Thanks for going in depth!

[@Yipping_Yeti]

Nice TJ! I needed another TJ channel to follow. Keep the content coming! Subscribed!

[@CBOverland]

Thank you!

[@rjeepster8640]

I went through two lift kits before I went to metal cloak. Now two of my other friends went with metal cloak too! Amazing durability!

[@3Dude1962]

Good vibe amazing rig look onward to more content on the Hound and travels overland.

[@CBOverland]

Thanks! We have a walk around video up of the Hound. linked below, see you down the road! kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpOvnYlrirein6s

[@brisonpalmer6730]

Sweet build on the Jeep love the video

[@CBOverland]

Thank you!

[@astrogypsy]

Thx man. I got a thousand ideas from this.

[@CBOverland]

Glad to hear it!

[@micahsapwell7494]

Hello from north of phx also with a green tj

[@jeeperjohn6735]

You zoom in on the tires, but not sure you mention what brand you're running? Caught they are 35s, but 35 whats? Thanks!

[@KyleSVT]

Awesome Jeep! The headsets are cool!

[@CBOverland]

🙏

[@blaineyh920]

The word “build” drives me absolutely bananas these days. You bolt 4 aftermarket parts to a vehicle and it’s a build.

[@CBOverland]

🤣

[@markhoffman2165]

Great build! What spout do you have on your water Jerry can?

[@CBOverland]

Thank you! It’s a 12v switched faucet affixed to an extra cap with a submersible pump. Overland Bound has a good video/parts list. Purely a convenience piece of kit but it sure saves our backs. 👍

[@thelonewrangler1008]

How do you go from Cherokee to wrangler? I'm full blown wrangler from day one but I've parted out a few Cherokees and for decades have wondered if storage outweighs topless menuverability

[@CBOverland]

We rolled the Cherokee… the TJ size was perfect for the trails we wanted to do. Went topless/half doors to discard of the weight for the rooftop tent.

[@MrJose120889]

You gotta figure something out with the audio it’s horrible

[@CBOverland]

Thanks for the construction criticism! Any suggestions on a good dead cat mic for the wind? Clearly this one isn’t doing the best job.

[@michaelgee7509]

Just the volume levels are so different. My two year old son was like “turn it down daddy.” Lol trying to hear all the details about your build. Nice rig bro!

[@MR-mz6cy]

Just the different volumes between the music and dialogue

[@CBOverland]

Thanks guys! We’ll look into audio leveling. We are learning as we go and will do better. Chelsea has been putting all the videos together on her phone and we have been questioning audio quality on playback. 🤘

[@leftystrat62]

I'm in LOVE

[@CBOverland]

thanks!

[@colefoster5662]

what kinda half doors are those??? love the look!

[@CBOverland]

Bestop tube doors with element enclosures. Great fitment, latches can be a pain but they serve their purpose well. And I think they look great too. 👍 -B

[@RyanSmithTeam]

Sweet rig dude! Love your set-up. Definitely gives me ideas for my '98 soft top tj. I would love to have a rack like yours (haha). I know you mentioned it was a custom build. Are you willing to share specs and mounts? That's my next upgrade. Cheers to happy times on the trails dude!

[@CBOverland]

Thank you! I will absolutely share what I learned building the rack. The tops were my biggest struggle, so we decided to loose the windows and keep the safari top. 🤣 The mounts are motorcycle handlebar riser bushing sets in 1” tube, with shock tab mounts on the rack/cage. Haven’t found a good way to keep a top and avoid an “exo” cage rack.

[@RyanSmithTeam]

Thanks for the info dude! You're right, running the safari top is the way to go. Where are you guys heading next? A group of us are running mojave....leaving Avi resort 1/28 and heading towards Barstow. Should be fun. Happy wheeling man!

[@CBOverland]

Ahhhhh! I wish we could tag along. Haven’t finished the Mohave rd yet. Had a major break, be back on the trails in 6 ish months. Happy Trails!

[@talesofjeep3640]

I like those front fenders. Scorpion Off Road's site lists fender and hoods, but when you click it says, "No items available". Covid ?

[@CBOverland]

www.lasvegasjeepandoffroad.com/

[@CBOverland]

I’d give them a call. Everything is made to order custom. Dino and the guys to great work!

[@PeterHartman1]

I like that webbing for keeping the dogs safe. Does it blow and flap and make a ton of noise when you drive? Also check out a piece of software called levelizer .

[@CBOverland]

The net stays pretty taught. Think we will try Bartact for our next net. Charlie chewed at this one a bit. We’ll check out levelizer soon. Thanks! 🤝

[@tripleseven8361]

Nice...Not hard to tell that it's a western vehicle though...The only way to keep an eastern Jeep from rusting is to have everything covered in oil...and even that's not enough!

[@CBOverland]

haha that is so true, we are from Wisconsin, everything rusts out

[@ssarkees]

Go to a parts yard and grab a ford 8.8, along with the calipers and rotors.. I paid $180 for one - pulled. Regearing it will suck, but its beast! You will also need to put another locker in, but you can sell your dana 35 easy. I have an LS swap and 4:88 gears, and I can spin 35s on pavement.

[@CJLane-62]

I'd check into some OldMan Emue medium to Heavy load Springs as I seen somewhere that they are making them for TJ's now!

[@CBOverland]

👊🏻🤘🏻 awesome, we will check them out

[@CJLane-62]

@@CBOverland I just Traded my 2000 TJ SE,and 5G for a 2003 TJ lifted and with a 4.0L and Micky Thompson Baja tires brand new,has a couple of little issues but I Think that I git the better Deal,!Lol😁😁😁🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@derJackistweg]

THE MUSIC! Nice rig and fun to watch - but the music! first too load and second toooo happy. You do not need that, if you have something serious to tell, what you have. PS: If you do not have an excellent lens on your cam, you are better of, when filming with the sun in the back + you have a better light in that case as well. And better contrast.

[@AdolfTrumpler]

I completely agree

[@CBOverland]

Thanks for the tips! one of our first few videos, getting the volume under control.

[@UncleFjester]

If your not Michael Bay why do you even need background music?

[@ttjeepjl5146]

if you dont mind me asking what did you two do for a living , and what happen too your jobs ??

[@CBOverland]

Between the two of us, we have a little over 30 years in hospitality/service industry. Most recently, (March 2020) Chelsea was an AGM for a gaming, restaurant and bar group in Las Vegas and I tended bar at a French restaurant on the Strip, DJ weddings, write cocktail menus, and mobile mechanic. Our careers deemed non essential, crushing our industry, and rendering those skills down to the crunchy stuff at the bottom of the pan. 🥓

[@blackout4338]

3:08 Where is that!? Absolutely beautiful

[@CBOverland]

trail to Laurel Lakes in California. one of the most magical places we’ve ever experienced

[@ryandillon2097]

Oh and did you build a doggie platform over the fridge? Merry Christmas!

[@CBOverland]

Yes! Merry Christmas! It’s a modified hitch cargo basket.

[@CJLane-62]

I was wondering where the dogs rode!

[@joshnasche5495]

Cool jeep. Yall running the stock gas tank? And what made yall go with a TJ vs like a YJ or JK jeep wangler.

[@CBOverland]

Thank you! It is the stock 19 gal tank. I found the 98 TJ was my happy place in vehicle systems and overall price. Solid 4.0, coil sprung, and still relatively minimal electronics. A JK was out of our price range and honestly, I couldn’t find a yj that ran worth a crap at the time. 🤣 -B

[@joshnasche5495]

Gotcha. I got a YJ and I'm ready for more upgrades to it lol

[@CBOverland]

Yj is a great platform. Endless possibilities, just a set of OME springs and hit the dirt or cut it all up, link it front and rear on coil overs. 🍻

[@ryandillon2097]

What tire size are you running? Are you going to do an 8.8 swap eventually? Rig looks good you got a new sub keep them coming!!

[@long-jeep]

There is no need for an 8.8. They are more trouble than they're worth. He's running a Super 35 which is good for lockers and 35 inch tires.

[@CBOverland]

I think if we swap axles we’ll go straight to tons. Thanks for the support! More videos as soon as we find WiFi 🤘

[@schlexpeditionsreviews4703]

Cool setup! But I gotta say I'm glad I don't need headsets to talk in my rig 😜 the price to pay for a badass rig like this though

[@factorsofseven]

How had your engine bay held up with that hood louver. I just put one on mine for the same reason but am a little worried about rust or anything like that from rain or rust because of the opening

[@CBOverland]

I had the same concern. I found minimal difference vs stock hood driving in the rain. However, if the rig is going to sit outside and collect water, that would be a cause for concern. -B

[@Chasitek]

I may have missed it since I skimmed the video but does it have the stock 4.0? No engine upgrades

[@CBOverland]

Hey! 4.0 with a “Screamin Demon” spark kit from Performance Distributors and a heavy weight flywheel.

[@camposvazquez]

I have an 87 samurai hardtop...all stock and my trailer made from a wrecked samurai convertible.. I havent kitted anything yet or built the sammy... I a

[@CBOverland]

That’s awesome! Samurais are great machines!

[@Thegravyipass]

How’s yours mpg man? I’m at 17.8 hwy with 33’s, 4.56, and the NV3550. My 16 gallon tank is the only complaint I have on mine.

[@CBOverland]

Mpg towing full kit has been avg 10-12. 19 gallon tank, 35’s, 4:56, screamin demon spark sys, ax15, magnaflow exhaust. And the hubs help not turning the front diff on hwy. We haven’t put enough miles on unloaded to get city/hwy numbers. Gulping down fuel we store 4 gallons on the Jeep and an additional 10 on the trailer.

[@Thegravyipass]

[@lucatosi2933]

sweet jeep but damn the music 100x louder than the rest of the video was painful

[@CBOverland]

We are learning about audio leveling. Please bear with us, it’s all Greek to me. 🤣 -B

[@MYWAYINTHEDRIVEWAY]

what about if it rains what do you do to keep the jeep dry?

[@CBOverland]

we have a large military tarp to cover the rig but honestly we’d usually just drive thru it. 🤣

[@MYWAYINTHEDRIVEWAY]

@@CBOverland love it keep it up. I am.moving from California to Washington next month. if you find your self in Washington and need anything feel free to reach out

[@CBOverland]

Thank you! We’d love to get up that way soon. Safe travels.

[@jayamos456]

Where is the trailer walk around?

[@CBOverland]

tbt... we broke down the following week putting the adventure/life to a standstill. Hope to film the trailer walk around soon.

[@long-jeep]

A Super 35 is as strong or even slightly stronger than a stock TJ Dana 44 and has been proven in Johnson Valley running lockers and 35s. You won't have any problems with that set-up.

[@CBOverland]

It seems to get a bad reputation, but it’s been great!

[@long-jeep]

@@CBOverland the standard Dana 35 has a deserved bad reputation but the Super 35 is a different animal

[@RicardoRodriguez-tg5sq]

What tire size do you use?

[@CBOverland]

35” x 12.5 R15

[@280Zombie]

I need that shirt bro. Help a brother out lol

[@508Adventures]

what location is that at 3:09?

[@CBOverland]

Trail leading up to laurel lakes near mammoth, CA. I’m not sure of the name.

We’re avidly working toward better quality.

Garbage audio editing

[@CBOverland]

working on getting better, thanks for the feedback.

[@goatman3828]

That noise...that terrible noise! Disco is DEAD. Take that keyboard away from your 2 year old niece and find something that can at least be called music. Hell, at least make that racket quieter than the rest of the video. Don't need to hear it every 15 second interval. Seriously. That noise makes this vid UNWATCHABLE

[@CBOverland]

Wowza! Goat Man, now that we are aware of your musical dislikes, we will continue to do our best showing people like you a window into our world. Including, dog leashes, loud exhaust, and maybe some Chicago House music depending on the mood. 🍻 🐐 👨 Stay tuned for the 1 ton tj build. -B

[@goatman3828]

@@CBOverland yea, didn't mean to sound like a a..hole there. Just after years around turbine engines in the Army my ears are super sensitive to some sounds. All I meant to say is "Please keep the music levels even to, or lower than the voices. I enjoy your vids, but that (to me) super loud tunes is actually painful. 👂 P.S. love dogs with or without leashes and look forward to your 1 ton install🍻
