I have some bumper pieces from a ‘20 Sahara. 1x set of fog lights 1x wiring harness for fog lights 1x set of front tow hooks 1x front license plate holder 1x rear tow hook There is also a rear Sport bumper. I’m going to throw it away in a few days so get now if you want it. Pick up in Austin.

I was at Hidden Falls this past weekend and got in a tight spot. I was able to self recover, but also mangled my rear driver corner. I got a quote to get it fixed and decided it would be better if I tried to fix it myself. I’m not completely finished, but this is more or less how it will be...

I picked this up recently, but did not install it. I've decided to go another direction with my rig and am wanting it out of my garage. This is the bumper as advertised online. You will be getting all four LEDs with bezels, the wiring harness for the LEDs, the bumper mounting hardware, and the...

I've seen a few mentions of people wanting to know how other people keep track of their maintenance or something similar. I think I have a fairly all encompassing spreadsheet, so I am attaching it for y'all to use as y'all see fit. I have left my information in as template. Enjoy. Download...

Was looking at Tech Authority this morning to see if they had the service manual in stock. Turns out that they are not even showing the service manuals on their site anymore. Now back when I was younger, I would always get a Haynes manual for whatever truck I was driving. If the factory service...

Can anyone identify what type of connector this is? You’re looking at the backside of the stock antenna base. I will be replacing the 93ohm cable with a 50ohm cable.

Free to anyone willing to pick them up in The Woodlands, Tx. You’ll need the washers/nuts to mount them.

This is a longer post. The current considerations for the direction of my build are weight, recovery, and family camping trips. My list is not meant to be a step-by-step to-do list, but more of a guide to keep me on track. I would like to get feedback on my logic as to the order of operations...

These are one-off crates that were made to maximize the trunk space of the JL. The dogs that used them were medium sized (about 45 pounds each). A ratchet strap will secure the crates in place in case of hard braking or erratic steering input. They will only be sold as a set. $100 The...

The parts guy at my local dealership couldn't give a good reason as to why the Mopar 75w-85 is so costly. His only inclination was because it is OEM, but I can't fathom that the price is marked up by that much just because it is OEM. Is there a unique additive package or some crazy molecular...

Shortly after I bought my Jeep, I threw a recovery strap, a tree saver, a pair of shackles, and a pair of gloves in to the back. Well, today I finally had a reason to pull them out and put them to work. It wasn't how I figured I would use them, but it was kind of cool. My dad is setting up a...

I have a '78 Suburban project that I am starting to plan out. Is it possible to steal an ABS system from a modern truck of similar size and weight to retrofit the Suburban? What kind of issues should I be thinking about?

I would like a better tire pressure gauge for the Jeep. I have a handful of cheap pencil type gauges that work just fine for quick checks on the road, but they are not terribly precise or accurate when off center. I want to try a digital gauge but am struggling to convince myself that the amazon...

The steps on the Sahara are nice, but they are not for everyone. I just got my hands on a set of take-off Rubicon rock rails. The removal and installation was super easy. If you are new to wrenching on your rig, this would be a great intro. The first step is to gather the required tools. For...

Sometime next week I want to head up to Barnwell, or anywhere around the DFW area, and have a bit of fun. I've never been so I was hoping to tag along with one of y'all that has some experience there. Anyone down? My Jeep is unmodified and is my daily, so no "hold my beer" tricks for me.

Howdy I am working out some details as to how and where to mount my radio. An issue I have come across is possible interfence with the magnets on a mesh top. The magnets are supposed to be rare earth magnets (neodymium boride) along the windshield and I want to mount my radio right above my...

Before I bought my Jeep, I measured the back to verify that my dog crates would fit. Turns out I took bad measurements. My wife and I looked online for reasonably priced crates that would fit to no avail. This is why I love Wranglers. There is a unique solution to my unique problem. I have built...

In the summer 2017, there was a hailstorm that blew through College Station, Texas and dented up my 2008 Mazda 3. It wasn’t a super nice car when I bought it used, but I figured since my at-the-time girlfriend, now my wife, and I had a good insurance policy, it would be nice to keep the car...

Howdy, I will be getting my technician class licence next week, but I do not have a radio yet. The things that I consider 'must have' is a mobile transceiver, 70cm/2m bands, 50 watts PEP, and a fairly simple face plate. A radio that fits that bill is the Yaesu FT-7900R... At the same time...

Proper Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance When the minivan turns into an adventure buggy each weekend, it is good to have a way to talk to your fellow adventurers. Some guys like to rely on their cellphones, others use CB radios, while a few get the amateur radios. Regardless of your...
