What do you guys require each rig to have. Remember I just got the JKU so I might not have everything just yet. This weekend I am getting plates, next is Christmas and the one after that I want to go hunting.

I have ZERO experience but my friend & neighboor has been a jeep guy all his life and is an expert trailer.. he says the typical mall crawler with 35's can do most of the trails here in LV... im honestly not lookin at doing anything crazy but I am very excited about doing some of the easier trails around here.

I see lifted JK's here in Vegas everyday!

Just wish the Jeep was here so I can install the lift kit!

For the most part bring yourself, your jeep and be prepared to have fun. We will work with you and get you threw things. As you get into the sport it will become clear what you need and how to build your rig. Everyone of us started at one point or another I use to borrow stuff like air and deflators , straps all the time. Now I loan mine out to the new guys

I remember the first time out... I felt so unprepared. Roger was awesome in telling me what I should pick up for the future. It's been about 2 months and I have most of what he suggested. However the list of upgrades will never end.

Next time wifey and I come out, any chance I might be able to ride shotgun with one of you guys? I rented a JKU last time we were at Caesars from Hertz (they subbed it out to Beverly Hills Rent a Car) but I got nervous about actually going offroad with it since there were so many restrictions on the rental. Would love to check out the trails in the vicinity.

Thanks your jeep has come a long way as well. I might be free for this sat run, my work has shut me down on hours. I have to many and they said I need a few days off.
