Could always go for balsaNaww, part of the purpose of my DIY bumper is to shave off a shit ton of weight in the front.
That's why eventually I'll be making my own aluminum L beam front bumper. A point to attach my winch, for under 50 lb.
I can't imagine doing all of this to drop 50 lbs especially with the diesel engine. I'm just guessing here; I think you're changing this up because you love to tinker and try new things with your Jeep and can't keep your a** scratchers in your pockets so to speak.Naww, part of the purpose of my DIY bumper is to shave off a shit ton of weight in the front.

Have fun!For sure going off-roading Monday. I think it's supposed to rain here in Texas on Monday, shouldn't affect me too much.
@Ratbert will be happy.
Picked up this guy for monday. Hopefully we'll be able to go up that incline and see just how steep it really is with this digital inclinometer.
Also while I was on Amazon...
I picked up some 4" Niilight fog lights for my JK.
Seriously though they are designed for JK's, but I'll be using it on my JLUD. Not sure exactly how yet, but I'm kicking around some ideas. Probably something I'll decide for sure once I install my DIY bumper later this year.
Pretty slick. Any clue how it determines pitch and roll?
280 miles north of Houston? Guess where it's currently headed?I'm far enough north it will barely effect us. 280 miles north of Houston to be exact. That hurricane will be a cool breeze by the time it hits us.
Probably utilizes a MEMs sensor. If you really want to dive into it…
Is… is that pink?Shit man, I didn't even know there's a storm over there.
That's me at the pink dot!
Maybe we'll get some rain tonight.
Today I learned that they can't remove posts from @Tredsdert's build thread!
First pinstripes? Those are killer badges!I guess this is why people say they avoid trees...
I was just going to suggest that, if the EcoDiesel's transfer case requires ATF +4, as the manual specifies is required for the same on my 2.0T, then you'll want to ensure that the pictured ATF meets this particular standard.I'm going to do my transfer case Sunday if I have time, otherwise I'll probably save it for the following weekend. Transfer case only takes a little less than two quarts, so I purchased a gallon size so that I have some for the next time.
I already know what people are going to say, I have the wrong differential oil.
Heh, The brake-lock is actually pretty nice. I did one of the challenge-difficulty trails at Hot Springs OHV park with only that since my lockers weren't working.Unfortunately and maybe also ¿thankfully? My Wrangler is a Willys Sport, thus no lockers. However the EcoDiesel comes with a limited slip in the rear with the tow package.
