Went to Silver Lake with my friend and his dad 6 years ago and thats when i decided i wanted a Jeep. Bought my XJ a few weeks ago with a 4 inch lift.. has a few probs such as oil leak; and play in steering. I want to make it up this year but not sure if I will get it in shape for the 3 hour one way trip to Silver Lake.


Looks like you had loads of fun :thumbsup:

cool pictures!! One of my buddies has a cottage up there, we make it up about 4 times a year, Its a good time usually! I personally like it better on holidays, because its not quite as boring because their's a lot more stuff to watch and be jeleous of.

Im glad you like michigan, Its a beautiful State!! Well terrain wise, but Economy wise........good as poop!

Where did you camp at? Valdu?

wow that looks really awesome, camping and the light house and blah blah blah. where is that exactly? if thats anywhere near wisconsin id love to make it out there sometime next summer when im not in school or something.

Its right across the lake! Take the ferry over!!

ill get a snorkel and swim it. haha actually the ferry would be cool, never been on one, that'd be a fun trip for me in the misses next summer.

Lake Express is quite expensive. its a cool place to visit though. nice pics!

Nice pics Rew, how did the new roof rack work out?

had it fully loaded and it held up great

sucked up some gas mileage though when every thing was up there

Cool pics,

I'll be at Silver Lake on August 20th..

I found a used one on Craigslist last week for $50. It was listed on the 30th and thought it would go super fast. I sent a message on last night and the guy was waiting on someone to pick it up that night. If I had gotten off my lazy butt and checked on it earlier it would be on my XJ.

thats the one down fall to procrastiation

have fun out there, i think i will be trying for the badlands around then

have you been there before?

how low did you end up going with your tires? i tried 10-12 psi and wasnt having much luck. i hear ya on the backing down a hill, i was definetely a experience to back down the hill. the hills look decieving when your on the lower part looking up or looking at pictures.
