  1. What Gear Do You Keep Your Wrangler In? 2H, 4H, 4H Part-Time, N or 4L [LOCKED DUE TO FIGHTING AND DISRESPECTFUL BEHAVIOR]

    Are the clutches even in play when the TC is NOT in 4A? (Hopefully someone who has practical knowledge can respond).
  2. What Gear Do You Keep Your Wrangler In? 2H, 4H, 4H Part-Time, N or 4L [LOCKED DUE TO FIGHTING AND DISRESPECTFUL BEHAVIOR]

    Donā€™t forget that he used his 392 to TOW a fully equipped overlanding trailer on and off road (Not really sure how many miles with the trailer). Towing undoubtedly increases TC clutch wear here (inference). A light trailer on pavement increases it a little, a heavy trailer on challenging...
  3. Dealer prep woes - new 2025 Rubicon with factory Warn winch

    Late to the conversation but theres a better wayā€¦ If you want a clean hole in ABS and many other plastics DONā€™T DRILL. Heat up a short (maybe 3ā€ or so) piece of pipe (copper typically works well) or a sacrificial thin wall socket of the desired OD and melt the hole into the plastic (hot punch...

  5. Winter wheeling - chains, cables, nothing, a sled?

    Chains are great tools for many difficult snow wheeling situations BUT ā€¦ - They have to fit properly. - They have to be secure. - You have to change the way you drive. - You may lose the ability to turn to the stops without tearing things up. They can do a lot of damage to your vehicle if...
  6. Baby it's cold outside

    Attn Canadians: What happened to the requirement that all new cars be equipped with block heaters? Iā€™m pretty darn sure that in 2012 it was the law (I thought throughout Canada). I learned this when attempting to get a block heater for my 2011 infiniti G37x and there was no US part availableā€¦...
  7. Clunk and passenger wheel moved side to side when accelerating at low speed

    Sounds a lot like loose lug nuts. My money is on rohdawg for the win.
  8. Snow clearing options

    Contract a seasonal plow truck service. Inexpensive for a short driveway, nothing to store or maintain, not your problem if something gets destroyed. Do it by the season and make sure that you get a guarantee that theyā€™ll plow within x hours every time thereā€™s more than xā€ of snow . If you do...
  9. Grill removal question

    Maybe the original winch installer removed the clips. Itā€™s not uncommon for folks to do that. If so youā€™ll be able to slide the grill up after the other clips are loose. If the center clips are still there and you end up removing the grill, use a hot knife (any piece of thin metal - like a...
  10. Third Time is the Charm Alaska Trip Plan: 4 months of Jeeping, Hiking and Camping in 19 States and Canada!

    CDC got a lot of input from the dog community and recently walked back this change. They actually simplified the dog import requirements as long as you are coming from a rabies-free low risk country (which Canada currently is.) Looks like thereā€™s currently no fee, no health certificate, no...
  11. Third Time is the Charm Alaska Trip Plan: 4 months of Jeeping, Hiking and Camping in 19 States and Canada!

    It may be fortunate for Mr. Business that youā€™ll be crossing back into the US prior to Aug 1 as the entry rules for dogs become more complex that day. He probably has all of the required elements for the new rules but thereā€™s potential snags with the microchip type and install date vs rabies...

    Great work area @Atomic-Mouse. @GoatHerder check out garagejournal forums for a few thousand hours of reading on tools and workshops from the practical to the over the top insane. There are many good threads and ideas about organizing tools. You can find great info without spending too much time...
  13. Altimeter calibration

    Your phone has access to more data. Your phone has better software. Your phone has more computing power. Your phone is magicā€¦. well pretty much. GPS position accuracy is improved using differential correction. Jeep probably doesnā€™t have access to the data needed to make those corrections...

  15. Stock Grill Mod for Easy Access | Northridge4x4

    I'm looking for feedback from folks who have removed the 4 lower middle grill tabs for easier grill removal as shown here: Does the grill rattle after doing this? Is it flexing into the winch and wearing the paint off? Are you glad you did it? Thanks

  18. Guns for Alaska

    This is valid. When a bear is charging you - the profile is predominantly head. A head with a thick conically shaped skull that a bullet (or slug) are unlikely to penetrate. You'd probably succeed in stopping the bear if the shot was directly on the nose as there would be little deflection...
  19. Guns for Alaska

    Iā€™ve always been told .45s and .357s are significantly underpowered for dropping attacking brown/grizzly bears. Iā€™ve heard that in bear defense classes and from a variety of sources with less expertise. The only gun Iā€™ve heard recommended in training is a 12 gauge with slugs. It used to be...
