    Back out on the trail

    Two weeks ago me and the boys went on our yearly offroad trip. This time we went back to Burning Rock offroad park and had a great time. It was off season, so we had the park pretty much to ourselves which was cool - it was also really wet. One thing that I noticed is that my TJ had a much...

    Breaking Starter Solenoids

    "That bolt's just for show!" I'm glad it's working.

    Ford gpw 1942

    That looks like a blast. I'd have been nervous when the front end came up while climbing the hill (at 1:09)!

    Breaking Starter Solenoids

    Just throwing things out there, but could this be a problem with your flywheel - bent or missing teeth? Do the bad ones work if you try them out on the bench? Maybe spin but not engage?

    Breaking Starter Solenoids

    My old CJ7 seemed to need a new starter every year. I chalked it up to the cheap rebuilt ones that I kept using. The only saving graces were that they had lifetime warranties and were easy to replace. How often are you replacing these?

    got another tj

    Some rust stains, but overall a good looking Jeep. How does the frame look?

    got another tj

    $1000 for a TJ? That sounds like a steal! I'm looking for a Jeep for my 15 year old son now, and they aren't cheap. I'm jealous

    Accident Woes

    I was wondering how that car hit you with its butt like that.

    Accident Woes

    Man, that's a bummer. Did the frame take any damage, or just the door / rocker?

    Con_Ferr front slide shield

    I too have no real help to offer, but I do see what looks like a cheap CJ power steering skid plate on amazon. Can't tell you if it's any good, but if it isn't up to snuff you can always return it. https://www.amazon.com/CrawlTek-Steering-Skid-compatible-Jeep/dp/B0CBCR8GLM/

    I got ducked for the very first time

    Been driving the Jeep most of my life and I'd never received a duck before. It finally happened this weekend. Coming out of harbor freight with my daughter., I saw this little guy wedged under my door latch. My daughter was really stoked and already talking about paying it forward. Guess I'm in...

    Food for thought

    OMG, that's awesome

    Are wheel spacers / adapters that bad?

    My TJ's rims are pretty beat up, and my 33s are getting warn down - I'm probably a year away from some new rims and tires. I'd really like to get a set of take off JK or JL rubicon take off rims (the ones with the little Jeep on them). I'd be going from a 4.5x5 lug pattern to a 5x5 lug pattern...

    Thoughts on Watt Linkage

    That's wild, and looks interesting. You'd need a pretty stout diff cover I'd bet. I can't exactly see how the red ends are mounted, but they do look to be up and out of the way.

    Batt showing 12.48V

    I'd start by checking the belt going to the alternator. Verify that is tight and in good shape. Next, I think (but have never done it myself) that Advance Auto (and likely others) can test your battery and alternator for free. I would expect that the battery light monitors the charging...

    Like Jeep fender flares

    I went on youtube to find support for my wild claims but there appears to be none. I found a few forum posts that talk about making the plastic brittle, but those appear to be in the minority. It looks like my idea that "you can only do this one time" may not be accurate 🤥

    Like Jeep fender flares

    I've heard that it only works one time on the fenders. Not sure if that is true or not. I've always pressure washed mine and then put some mothers back to black on them (my fenders are a dark gray). Works for about 2-3 months before I need to reapply.

    Happy New Year 2[emoji[emoji6[emoji640]2][emoji640][emoji6[emoji640]2]]2[emoji6[emoji640]1]

    Happy new year everyone. I'm a bit late - just got back in town from our New Years celebrations. I really hope that 2025 is a better year than 2024. That was a tough one!

    Merry Christmas everyone

    Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas this year! Hopefully things are going well at your house - we got hit with some sort of bug almost two weeks ago. We're about 80% better but still on the mend. I think we'll be right as rain for New Years. Anyone looking for some good Jeep related gifts?
