    Picked up a new set of tools to bring off-road

    I've been looking for some time for a set of tools to take off-road that do not rattle. I found these channel lock tools at my Sam's club for only $99. I'm pretty happy overall. The case has real metal hinges and if you shake it, you can't hear any tools rattle inside. It's got a lifetime...

    Leaking power steering box

    The mystery unfolds. I had originally thought the power steering pump was bad because when backing up out of my driveway there was a dark puddle on the driver side of the vehicle. Well the same thing happened today and I looked a bit closer. It smells like gear lube and I can see this on my...

    Leaking power steering box

    Does this power steering box look like it's leaking to you guys? I'm not sure at what point a steering box leak becomes bad enough to pay attention to. The fluid level is still fine and it looks like this is a pretty small leak. Should I replace this with a stock steering box or is there a...

    Which of these bolts is stronger?

    That's what I've been missing. I knew that 10.9 is stronger than 8.8, but it seemed strange that they would mark this bolt with an 11. I had never heard of a "manufacturer's mark" before. Does seem to make things needlessly confusing.

    Which of these bolts is stronger?

    I ordered a new trailer hitch for my wife's Toyota Highlander and it came with a new set of bolts. The factory bolts are stamped with an 11 and the new bolts are stamped with an 8.8. I know there are differences in hardnesses between metric and SAE bolts, but my assumption is these would both...

    Recommend a winch plate for my TJ

    I've got a comealong, but never take it offroad. It just feels janky and a bit dangerous, with the metal hooks and cables. I get nervous thinking about a cable snapping while I'm right on top of it cranking. I like the idea of a winch with a remote and synthetic line. I've also got a hi-lift...

    Recommend a winch plate for my TJ

    Man, I hadn't thought of any of that. I do think I need a winch, and will probably buy one anyway, but darn.

    Recommend a winch plate for my TJ

    I've found one that seems to fit my description from Under Cover Fabworks: https://undercoverfab.com/carbon-steel-winch-plates/24-ucf-carbon-steel-winch-plate-for-jeep-tj.html It's 1/4 inch steel and comes bare metal. The rub is that it's $150 plus shipping. I'm torn because I could get one...

    Recommend a winch plate for my TJ

    After getting stuck a few times on my trip out to Burning Rock offroad park, I've decided to pick up a winch. My plan is to buy the Badlands Apex 12,000 LB winch from Harbor Freight https://www.harborfreight.com/12000-lb-winch-with-synthetic-rope-and-wireless-remote-56385.html The one thing...
