Добавлен 16 ноя 2021
My Name is Jon, I am an Overland enthusiast and this Channel is all about exploring Gods magnificent creations in my Jeep and getting a bit dirty doing it. My love for the outdoors inspired me to start building an Off-road capable 2015 Grand Cherokee and it’s been a blast every step of the way. I hope all that stumble upon my channel enjoy the show.
Solo Grand Cherokee Winter Adventure
This will be the last Off-roading adventure of 2024. I am going to make it a time of reflection. Follow me as I take Me, Myself and I, Oh! and my dog Bravo to a place I used to frequent with my father. This will be a time to replay the great times we shared and also get a chance to talk with God in peace and quiet. All while getting a little dirty and wet on this winter adventure.

Well, that's when you will find us there. something about the dark cold forest attracts me. Of course because it won't be packed full of vacationers but there is something else about it. Its dark mysterious vibe provides i...

Hi, beautiful experience....
Been great to see this build coming together Jon! Thanks for the support!
@@TrailwayDesigns thank you! I can always get behind your brand
Nice reel, Jeeep yes!
@@eribadventure thank you 🙏
Hello, I'm new to the channel. I'm from Brazil. I bought a Cherockee recently and I want to do a project inspired by your car. Congratulations on the very good channel.
Thank you 🙏 that’s amazing. I’m glad you enjoy the channel. Welcome
With the dobinson suspension, did you got with the stock load springs, or the heavier duty springs? I dont have a Wk2, im rockin a new WL, but dobinsons has the only full suspension kit onn the market and im looking into it, keep rockin stay blessed !!
Thank you. Since this video I have since switched from medium springs to HD springs. They were the only springs that could hold the weight up. I’ve experienced that Dobinson springs are a little bit under their posted rating. But FYI if your only road driving, HD springs might be a little less kush then your looking for. They are considerably stiffer
@@GrandExploration If anything I might be looking at the standard springs from up front, and the HD for the rear, so when I tow and or rockin a roof top tent it will make up for having to loose the load leveling rear suspension which. But still got a month or two research and get it all figured out lol. But great to hear feedback on Dobinsons
@ sounds like a plan
Did you determine for sure what the snapping noise was?
@@jtbaren6483 it ended up being the rear differential
@@GrandExploration I feel you! I've done work on one thing with my Durango and it ended up being something completely different! Glad you got it figured out.
At about 18 minutes in, you can see a creeper with a headrest. What creeper or headrest are you using in the video? That looks very comfortable for your head. I want one!
These belonged to my buddy. I believe he bought them at oreilys auto parts.
I'd really love some info on ur front bumper. I tried to look, and can't find anything. I have a 2020 with front sensor
My front end is a combination of the chief products lower guard and the chief products winch cradle that replaces my bumper. They make it to accommodate the sensor as well. I have a walk around video from a few weeks ago
Cool, how many inches did he lift and put reamers?
@@emersonprudente9049 this was back when I only had a 2.5” lift
Jeep Should of kept with the plug n play like the wj ttwo bolts each headlight done, having to dismantle the front end for headlights stupid
@@corey7348 I couldn’t agree more. The fear of turning it on in the morning and seeing a light burned out is anxiety intensified cuz it’s not convenient to swap out
27:28 That face has been the EXACT face I’ve been making every time I dish out more money to maintain this WortHog of a vehicle 😂 Like: Yup, One thing done, One thing still incomplete, One thing for sure one less dollar for me
Yup that is the look. It’s a hard feeling. But for me, I chose to go out and beat up my Jeep for a living so it’s all on me I know what comes with it haha. It’s all about learning. For me it’s mostly the stress of needing back and ready quickly for more videos.
Very nice!
how’s the road noise?
These were the Yokohamas Geolandars mt. And they are probably the quietest MT you can find. You hear a tiny bit when they are new. And then a little more when they are old but the in between is nice and smooth. I have trail grapplers now. And they are much louder
I love that old diesel engine sound that the land cruiser has
It’s nice right?
Sorry to hear about your Dad Jon. The first of your videos I saw was you and him at that pit. Losing my Dad was hard. Hold on to the memories and he will always be with you. That’s my favorite pit. We always leave with more trash than we brought.
Thank you! 🙏. It’s definitely been a hard one. But the faith is strong.
Not sure how it looks IRL but i think it could use 4” inches. 3 looks almost perfect but these trucks have poor ground clearance because of all the areo effects and not being body on frame. Still better stock than most suv’s on the market.
@@Inferno45 I wish I could do 4”. On this platform
Do you know if there is anyway to get the blue to run permanently or on a setting? Please let me know if you figured anything out
@@youtubetv8297 unfortunately I don’t believe so. From what I hear it is actually illegal to run blue or red full time because police officers use it. Least in the states.
@ ahhh yea that sounds abt right, I installed them the other night and they look amazing, your video was very helpful too!
@@youtubetv8297 that’s great. Glad I could help. Tell me! Do your high beams work okay? People have said that theirs don’t work. If that’s the case it’s because Vland mistakenly positioned the connectors upside down. You will need to flip it in two spots 1st is at the top of your headlight where you have the wire that connects to both headlights. Pull the connector out and flip it so that the clip is facing up. 2nd go down to your vehicles high beams plug where it connects to the Vland plug and flip it. Sometimes they won’t fit and you would have to unfortunately shave the clip. I haven’t done it because I don’t use my high beams anyway. I haven’t done light bars for that. Hopefully you don’t have to do any of that
@ yea I ran into the on the drivers side, I wasn’t sure what was wrong but I ended up calling my dad and he figured it out in about 5 mins 😂😂 but other than that they work amazing, I’m gonna need to adjust them bc they are basically pointing at the ground rn so I’ll have to do that too, is there a way to adjust them easily?
@ my adjustment was perfect. Probably because I’m on a 3” lift and 35’s haha. But if I think back it’s pretty easy. There should be an opening at the top where you can fit a screwdriver down and twist it to go up and down. That’s how most work. If you dm me on IG grand_ exploration. So I don’t forget. I can take a look tomorrow and see for sure.
Enjoyed the adventure watch, lol😊
@@me472 appreciate it
12:36 I just love that particular segment you guys did 🤙 Very cool! Here in Canada, its a yearly occurrence lol
Glad you enjoyed it. I bet it is. I want to come up that way
@@GrandExploration wait for 51st. It'll be easier 😂
Beautiful film man i like your "rigg" the GC absolute loving it. Keep up the good work greetings from the netherlands🫶🙏
Thank you very much!
Love your channel man! Awesome that i can watch with my little guy and not hear lots of cussing, and hear you getting out into the woods to spend time with the Lord! Question: I've got a 2019 Upland, and just installed 2" readylift spacer lift and got BFG KO3 295/55r20s with 1.5" spacers, factory wheels so +18 offset. Pinch weld done, but unfortunately im rubbing the front fender molding in front of the tire. Curious what me best bet is to resolve that. I noticed you removed your fender trim molding - how did you make it look so nice? Did you cut your fenders? If so was that easy? Weighing that vs trying to move up to the 6 monkeys 3" lift, but $ is an issue bc im not sure i could install it myself. Thanks in advance for the help!
Hey thanks man. Really appreciate that. Beware of the winter camping video. I put a little disclaimer in the comments. Some profanity from the goons I was with slipped passed editing hahaha So are you asking about the fender trim around sides? Or the front lower fascia? The bottom most part of your bumper (lower fascia) is held together with 7 twist clips. You just have to get under there and take the out. But for the fender trim I took an angle grinder to it and it’s not too tough. Just have to have a steady hand. If you’re going to cut the rear fender trims then that’s when it gets tricky. You have to be careful not to cut too much or you will be needing to re-weld
Thanks man that's helpful. I ended up just using a rotary tool to cut a bit of the fender trim and no more rubbing! Thanks again!
What size tires are you running??
@@Valentinar10101 in this video I think these were just 265/65 18
Insane vidéo !
Thanks
Nice video💪😎👌
Thank you very much!

Very nice and beautiful/ Aim glad to found this chanel! Thank you for your job
Thank you I really appreciate it
Great video with the drone. My visision for 2025 to explore Nova Scotia's hills and valleys. We don't have mountains. Brought a 2019 Grand Cherokee 3.6 with 8 sp auto transmission , 265/50 R20 A/T II Ridgetrak tires.
@@waynefaulkner2180 thank you! 🙏 move scotia huh? That would be cool
looks gook but, me, me, me, I, I, I... geez...
This is the type of off-roading/overlanding I want to do with my 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee but I was not aware of all the different transfer cases. I was like it's a 4x4, got caught up in the looks of the vehicle. I wanted an all black one and was blind to the fact I needed to go with the ones with the dial by the arm rest. So I went from a very capable 2006 Chevy Trailblazer with all the bells and whistles to just a 4x4 that is not very capable of 4x4 without low. So I guess it's light duty for now or until I can trade mine for one I want like an Altitude X I think it is.
Also thanks for another great video! I enjoy each and everyone! I'm going to start a channel for my adventures but need a channel title.
Ahh man that’s too bad. I feel for you! I know some guys that still get the job done with the qt1 system which is what I think your describing. Just need the brake pedal skills haha
I like mine but I got the qt 2 system. It's decent. Just a typical altitude package though with sunroof and 4 low etc
@ that’s all I got.
I like the laid back content. Great camera work and commentary. I also drive a Grand Cherokee.
@@FuriousWeasel-09 thank you! 🙏
Great video brother! Keep your head up my man lost my mom when I was 10. I’m 24 now there’s always that peace of mind we’ll reunite with them one day brother!
I appreciate you. It is the truth. 🙏
keep up the great work bro!
Thank you!
Where is this exactly? Thank you for sharing about your father. I felt that one brother.
Greenwater WA. Little under an hour south of Enumclaw. Off hwy 410
Hey how hard is it on your sidewalls when you air down? A few of the shots they looked like they were really folded over almost. (3:30 in)
These tires are made for it. Reinforced side walls. You should see them when people do some serious crawling on less air pressure! The only thing that’s hard on them is heat from driving too fast that low. That will create mini cracks that you can’t see and wear it out.
Thanks for the response! Additional question : How much of a difference do you think it's made for you between having your lift and before when you were stock ride height?
As someone who doesn't have wheeling friends, i appreciate the solo footage
@@pennywise5752 thanks. I’m glad you likening. It’s a lot more calm of a video than usual but it felt nice.
New subscriber here, do u have videos on the 4x4 set up in the 2015? Like I believe you have sport mode and all sorts of things the 2014 doesn’t have.
@@rallysport4207 I have a video talking about my drive system a bit. I have the Quadra trek 2 system. Just under the Quadra drive system. I’m missing the rear locker. I have snow/sand/rock/mud and auto as well as sport
@@rallysport4207 thank you for subscribing!

Happy new year Jon. I’m 52 and I still thankful to have both my parents but I would be lying if I said that I didn’t think about “that day”, when it comes. Making a New Year’s resolution right here right now…….going to spend more time with them. 🙏🏽
That’s a great resolution. So many things I still wish I could share with my dad
Awesome video, thanks! Enjoyed the drone work.
