    Hoard the Twinkies

    I know Wonder Bread is owned by Hostess. Now FLOTUS should be happy no more junk food..... For us anyway. Just try to imagine 18K people out of job at the same time just from one company. Glad that my Jeep is paid for and don't own any money to the bank. Gas can go up to $10.00 a gallon and I am...

    Hoard the Twinkies

    I just filled the freezer with them. I am going to see if I can have some freeze dried... My kids could sell them for thousands of dollars each in 40-50 years.....LOL the unions did a great job destroying another company and a piece of Americana in process of it! The 18,000 workers that lost...

    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    It looks fixed for now! When you get new the new piece, weld it over it.... Double protection.

    Titanium is a far superior material than steel but remember that if the material that the titanium pin goes in is not strong enough, something has to fail and it will. Personally, I think you will be OK with the part as it is and the steel pin. I just don't trust too much the idea of 16,000 lbs...

    Caffeine coming to Cracker Jacks

    Didn't change my diet but stopped taking my insulin for two months ( bad thing to do but I was in a environment that I couldn't store it). Dropped almost 50 lbs.....now I am doing the "right thing" again and stared using my insulin pump again and the weight is crawling back up. Damned if you do...

    There is a major fallacy regarding the so called 6161 T6 Aluminum billet as being "aircraft grade". It is in aircraft building for non structural parts such as seat frames, instrument panels and so on. Airframes are usually built out of 7075 Aluminum because it's strength. 6061 is not...

    Jeep Foot Pegs???

    I love mine. I usually go for a few hrs drive and find it relaxing not to feel squeezed in if I don't want to. It is a matter of preference. I live in Florida and my doors never are up anyways so why not?

    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    Got my bumpers welded and to the powder coating shop. Can't wait to get them back. Trailer hitch receiver on both front and back bumpers. My new winch can be kept away from the weather and just mount it in the receiver when needed. The cool thing will be that I can use it on the front as well as...

    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    I will. Just trying to change it up a bit. I figure I have the shop, made all kind of cool stuff for everybody but very little for my self...... You know how that goes. I am currently in a rot so I need something to pick me up a bit....

    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    Man...... I was just going to post that because I was working all day. MOLLE is probably the most efficient way of personalizing your carry on stuff, no matter what it is. I have all kind of pouches mounted on my roll cage and keep everything in them from sunglasses to loaded magazines. If I...

    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    I am using much thicker wall thickness material and welding gussets where the tubing is bent. The gussets will also have holes for carabiners so I can hook things to them. Also adding additional cross bars on top of the roll cage. The back of the roll cage will ales be a frame for the wall that...

    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    Still working on my roll bar. I haven't had much time to mess with it. Making it out of square tubbing so I can have a solid bikiny top made for it. It will only cover the driver and passenger area because I am making a trunk lid for the rear side of the YJ. That way a can have a secure trunk...

    jeep wont start, no fuel pressure, changed fuel pump, still no pressure

    Rick, my daughter had issues with her 1998 TJ wanting to die while driving. Originally, I was thinking it was the fuel pump or the filter but someone here suggested that it was the Crankshaft Position Sensor. Since it was the cheapest and easiest thing to fix ($71.00) we went with that and it...
