The ULTIMATE Jeep Wrangler 392 Overland Build

Join me and my good buddy Marco as we take you on a detailed tour of his newly built Jeep Wrangler 392 that has been purpose built for overland adventures. Marco built a Jeep Wrangler JK several years ago, but now that he’s had that experience under his belt, he’s taken what he’s learned an applied it to this new generation of Jeep… with a whole lot more horsepower! We’ll take a detailed look at all the modifications he’s done, the roof rack, roof top tent and awning, the storage and fridge system, his battery management system, his overland trailer and more.

I love it when Marco says "it's not over built". What an awesome rig.

[@OVRLNDX]

Thank you!

[@SamoyedMoms]

While watching this video I was thinking that there's no overland/camping/Jeep content better than this. TV networks couldn't do better or in a more accessible way. Two ordinary (talented) people sharing their off-road-overland enthusiasm, knowledge and adventures. But nothing ordinary about Marco's setup - wow!!

[@OVRLNDX]

I appreciate you! Thank you

[@TrailRecon]

Thank you!

[@SP98]

Marco’s 392 is overland perfection! Brad and Marco friendship is golden!

[@swexplorer]

Marco always thinks of everything and always has the cleanest installs! Can't wait to see your new rig in the field.

[@TrailRecon]

He's got an engineers mind for sure!

[@reidrollins3345]

Watching you and Marco over the years has been nothing less than an adventure. Happy thanksgiving fellas!

[@TrailRecon]

Happy Thanksgiving!

[@jobc9184]

Brad and Marco know how to make these Jeeps look amazing but also functional which is impressive!!!

[@LarryRichelli]

There are a lot of us that could make these jeeps look amazing but we do not have unlimited funds like these guys do!

[@LivingTheGringoDreamUSA]

Marco has an amazing Jeep 392 🎉

[@mickeysrccrawl]

Brent and Marco, friends meet low and high. You met high and still high together. Keep each other high on the top and it will last. Greetings from Denmark

[@PinstripeJim]

First time I've seen anyone with Fieldcraft gear. Can't go wrong with Mike's stuff. And Marco's Jeep should be a SEMA vehicle it has so much gear. So rad!!!

[@TrailRecon]

His Jeep was just at SEMA last month... one of the best Jeeps of the show in my opinion.

[@PinstripeJim]

@@TrailRecon Of course it was. LOL! Both are great examples of two different builds with the same goal. Lots of ideas and inspiring stuff. Love the channel!

[@Brother_Lander]

I know this man did not just crawl through the awning into his tent!! That is the coolest thing I've ever seen!

[@OVRLNDX]

So cool!

[@xBobby]

dude this rig is out of this world. jeep goals for sure

[@MarkKamauUX]

Your shared love for adventure and the friendship you've built is inspiring all the way here in Africa. Never loose that please. Looking forward to more adventures together.

[@joshmontgomery4040]

This is the best Jeep Overland build ever in my humble opinion. Wicked Cool !

[@OVRLNDX]

Thank You!

[@ruidacosta_26]

This friendship is so awesome to see and to have watched it grow over the years 🔥👌🏽 two kings 👑

[@amitkrupal1234]

1:16 Big Smile on my face, seeing such a good friendship. That's amazing.

[@turbojunki]

You guys are 2 of the nicest guys doing it. Thanks for this walk around. The Jeep is so well done.

[@ElCatrinMuerto]

The color scheme is just amazing. The Bronze and white is definitely what I would have gone with also. I would be smiling too if I was driving that beauty.

[@OVRLNDX]

Thank you!

[@ElCatrinMuerto]

@@OVRLNDX No problem

[@stanleyfurash7929]

Happy Thanksgiving Marco is getting more and more confident in front of the camera, especially when he's not cooking. Also I think the Bondi full width is the best looking after market front bumper and the new aev is the best rear, to me that would be the perfect combo

[@TrailRecon]

Happy Thanksgiving!

[@jo-vf7rc]

Marco has definitely got the best looking jeep l Have ever seen it's. absolutely perfection

[@doncox1965]

Friends and family it's great to see you guy's together the 392 puts a smile on my face.

[@m.t.mobile]

Whoa!! Now we know why it took so long to see Marco's new rig!! What a beauty!! Nice, clean wiring! Way to do that!

[@OVRLNDX]

Thank You!

[@lucas.treichler]

I‘m happy to be part of the first met! I‘ll be there soon. Greez from Switzerland, Bodenhaus

[@asdfjkl426]

Very cool. Basically, Marco / OverlandX 2.0 everything! Marco clearly leveraged all his Overlanding experience in this build. I really like every choice he made.

[@jclc4201]

The best Jeep setup I have ever seen by far.

[@LOVE-62]

Marco as a fellow 392 owner, well done my man. This 392 is over the top cool. Can’t wait for KC to finish that dang light bar. Cheers brother 🍻

[@OVRLNDX]

Thank You so much!

[@jeffontwo8636]

That exhaust is perfection. Great looking rig, Marco!

[@alsmith1025]

Watching these two dudes got me back out camping with my TJ. Never been happier.

[@OVRLNDX]

That’s awesome to know!!! Thank You!

[@overland_dadsfl]

I mean.... Marcos 392 is OUT OF THIS 🌎.👍👍👍👍

[@OVRLNDX]

Thank You!

[@SomeGuyOutside]

I was in highschool when you did that video… I have graduated college since then 😂 you guys and your adventures are so inspiring!

[@jeeb4x4]

Another wonderful meeting with the best overlanders! Thanks! 🥰

[@conner7595]

Happy thanksgiving, very happy we got this video today! I absolutely love the relationship you and Marco have built, and all the amazing adventures we’ve seen. Thank you so much for giving us the chance to join along!

[@TrailRecon]

Thank you for following our adventures, we've sure had a blast sharing them with you over the years. Happy Thanksgiving!

[@talktomn]

The build is amazing. The friendship and bond created between those sharing these adventures is priceless. Congrats Brad and Marco. Happy Thanksgiving.

[@OVRLNDX]

Same to you! Thank You!

[@AmariMaahes]

By far the best overland 392 build I’ve seen. Max respect!

[@michaelbarger3665]

oh greeeeeeat, marco gets ANOTHER jeep….just the video i was waiting for…….

[@nater6604]

Alaska sounds like an awesome trip

[@OVRLNDX]

A dream!

[@FieldWorxoverlandadventures]

I love the 392, I’ve had 14 jeeps lots of hot rods Ford raptor TRX pretty much had them all and the most favorite vehicle I’ve ever owned is my 2023 392, and when you build it up the way you want it is so much fun to drive, it’s really hard to not want to jump on it, it’s a hot rod and it’s also an incredible four wheeler, I’m so glad I ordered one and got one I feel very fortunate, have fun you guys thanks for the video!!!👍

[@huf67]

27:57 ... I also have an MPS rack in my 2 door JK with my radios and other easy to reach items. And I have two other MPS racks mounted in the back. I had the owner of MPS custom make my lower rack and now he sells them on his website... Great stuff !!

[@Maximus_CaliforniaAdventures]

You're friendship is so good to see we are all blessed that you guys met!!! Happy Thanksgiving .

[@OVRLNDX]

Greatly appreciated! Thank You

[@danc8363]

the my favorite build ive ever seen. awesome job Marco!

[@dankruger2890]

wife and i just ordered a Hydro blue Rubicon with the diesel. Got up graded leather. going to add wench, electrical steps with blue light, brake light in back of spare tire, air bags with compressor so we can tow. Had a 2010 JK and 2018 JK and am supper excited to get 2022 JL. We have only gone on logging roads.

[@felixgarcia9063]

Wow! Love that 392 Jeep! It would have been wonderful if Marco would have recorded the wiring build and routing on the firewall. Its amazing what he did. Well, keep on overlanding!

[@JohnBlakx4]

Marco takes pride in what he does, and it shows. Quite nice!

[@michaelslinkard8259]

Master Chief, I enjoy following you on "TRAILRECON" my favorite KZbin station. I want to thank you for your service to our Nation. While in the Marine Corps I served with 2nd Recon Battalion and 2nd Force Recon Company in the 70's and early 80's. The "TrailRecon" being the name of your KZbin station caught my attention. The information, photography and videography are top shelf. I thank you for your hard work and dedication to the world of off roading and adventure. Again, THANK YOU. SEMPER FI

[@TrailRecon]

Thank you for your service! And thank you for watching the videos and I love that your Recon connection led you to TrailRecon. 👍

[@weschilton]

Man that is one amazing build, but I have to say the friendship between you and Marco is just my favorite part of your channel!

[@kblaine123]

Amazing RIG....congrats Marco. That's like a NASA built Rig !

[@jesseknipp294]

Love it!… love see Marco on the channel!

[@markbarnes]

I’ve been waiting for this one for awhile and it did not disappoint

[@billymurray4553]

Wow, that is one of the nicest looking outfits i have seen. The quality of the work that Marco does is truly "professional". Anyone would be proud and grateful to own something like that!

[@OVRLNDX]

Thank You!!

[@Roks4life]

Clean build, Marco. When you're tired of being last and decided to almost double your cubic inches, 3.6 to 6.4 it's a justified purchase.

[@OVRLNDX]

Hahahahaha! LoL! I feel understood!

[@townie408]

That is such an amazingly well built 392! just in awe of everything you've done to it and it still looks tasteful. I still think the thing I loved the most while watching this video, was the joy you two showed when remembering all the trips and the friendship you guys have built over the years. Please keep it up and I can't wait to see the future videos with you guys.

[@OVRLNDX]

Thank you!

[@TrailRecon]

Thank you very much!

[@rondail5675]

Very happy for you Marco. I will be following you with that 392. Such a special Jeep, a collectible.

[@fj9460-lr]

Those paddle shifters are awesome, but your strong friendship is the best option! I really enjoy you guys, adventures and tech savvy shared freely and so humble!

[@rickandal617]

Who needs Earthroamer! LOL. 😂 can’t wait to see you guys do what you do on the trails. Great job Marco and Brad.

[@a.r.o7697]

Yeah! You only blow a fraction of your life savings on a 392 Wrangler that's outfitted the same way.

[@edgarcia7102]

I have been watching your videos for a while and I came to realize that what I like the most is to see all those different rigs, and seems your sincere admiration for those who ride along you, sometimes seem not about you but about those around you, and I really like that, and to see different folks, and rigs through your lens , Trailrecon lens. I like it. And as always is a great inspiration to see Marco's job on his rig and on the the cooking station. Happy Thanksgiving guys!!

[@VideoShowMeHow]

Wow that tunnel in the tent/awning... What a great innovation!!

[@mannym-k342]

HE DID THAT!!!! good build sir

[@ronniewebb2777]

Oh man, that exhaust is awesome

[@NickMango]

Marco could get to Alaska in a few hours with that thing 🏎💨

[@Nanno00]

I am so impressed by what Marco has done with his new 392! He also has the front bumper with the KCScull lights that I’ve been wanting to get! My jeep isn’t an overland jeep (yet). I’ve been more of a rock crawler. I find it funny you ended the video saying Alaska is next for you guys. Alaska is why I started watching these videos, just a few days ago. I’ve been to 49 out of 50 states with Alaska being my missing state. I’m thinking of turning my jeep into an overlander. to make the trip happen. I didn’t know much about overlanding Tetris until I started watching these tour videos. I’m getting so many good ideas! I do have a question but I’m not sure if read/comment. Before seeing these setups, I was trying to think of a way to store a fridge on a slider coming out a backseat door, preferably on the 40% side. I’m hoping to get a small size fridge/freezer, like 36-40 quart. Have you ever seen this successfully done? Do you think it’s possible?

[@tomgardner6294]

Marco really did n amazing job on that build. Everything is so well thought out, I can’t imagine how great it will be . And that motor…goodness it sounds great!!! Marco, Enjoy!

[@OVRLNDX]

Thank you!

[@deancarr4507]

I would've never guessed y'all were only friends for 4-5 years. Seem to have known each other forever, that's awesome!

[@djp1234]

I added 2 products to my shopping list that I didn't know about thanks to this video.

[@hamzamberu6207]

Marco - a very pleasant gentleman

[@cannondale8168]

Hi Marco this is Cisco de TKT long time no see i was looking KZbin two weeks a go and I see marco having fun and now I don't stop looking all your videos there are great happy bro and your family to

[@arifnajieb8293]

It’s refreshing to see Brad show love to his family and friends. Great video.

[@nater6604]

Awesome build and video. Definitely a long video but I bet there's way more that could have been talked about and shown on this awesome build. I myself built a overland Jeep Wrangler jk 2016. It's a four-door, Rhino Gray. It has a Gobi rack on it with two 100 watt solar panels on top with a red Arc bcdc two 92ah batteries.and a 3000 watt inverter. I remove the rear seats and put a raised floor. We use the jeep sleep air mattress on our trips. So far our overland trips consist of block Island for 2 days New Hampshire for 2 days and Vermont for 2 days. My fiance myself and two dogs slept comfortably in a Jeep JK if you can believe that 😎👍

[@rogerbean6442]

You two will be Overland Legends! ✌️

[@scarletkingsnake]

i have been a subscriber for quite some time now but first time commenting.. i probably have nothing in common with these guys, but I enjoy watching other people enjoy what they are doing and the friendship (and going for adventure with family - referring to other videos here).. keep up the good work, boss 👍 and keep safe!

I'm happy for you Marco, you seem like a good dude and cook great cook and I really enjoy you and Brad on your adventures. Can't wait to see this setup on the beach in Baja in a future video.
