Just arrived Moab for Easter Jeep Safari in the LJ, here's what I've got on the overhead panel. I was glad the shovel was so handy because I needed it - I decided to go overland from Colorado to Moab on the Gateway-Castle Rock trail and ran into a bit too much snow at 8400 ft. elevation. Got stuck, had to shovel out in front of the tires and the shovel was very quick to access 
.
The black 2 1/2 gallon Rubican is for water, if you look closely you can see it's got a spigot in it. So stopping on the trail for a break or lunch, I can just swing down the panel and water is ready to dispense.

Yes it is. I've done trails for the past 3 days, about 100 miles off road (not to mention probably 60 miles of dirt roads) and the rack is definitely out of sight, out of mind. No rattles, no problems.

I've been in Moab at Easter Jeep Safari all week but haven't posted any pictures yet because I've been very busy with trails and other things. Spent the last two days helping MORryde at the Vendor Expo, they're showing the Trail Kitchen, the Overland Rack and a few other new things. Reaction to both was very good and reaction to the kitchen was especially good. I'll post some detailed photos of it as soon as I get a chance. In the meantime, here are two - the Jeep belongs to Retrofit Offroad, the new MORryde products were installed on their Jeep as well as a bunch of Retrofit products. Since I had the kitchen there and there aren't many good food choices at the show, I cooked hotdogs for lunch for myself and the MORryde and Retrofit folks.
