    How to tick-off a trail leader

    I don't think anyone is intending to create a blanket set of rules to be applied to any and all trips, especially with the intent of striping out all the fun and creating a dictator led march. Rather they are a set of guidelines that can and should be dug thru and selected for the particular...

    How to tick-off a trail leader

    In the biker world we use to call them Sweeps because they were left in the back to clean up any mess.. lol No matter what you call them, that position can make or break a good trip. I am also fortunate to have a few great ones that attend my trips.

    New Feature Feedback: SOS Support Alert - Mocks

    I would anticipate the likely hood of a ill intentioned person sending out a false SOS to lure in do-gooders with the intent of doing harm or relieving them of their expensive toys would be far less likely than the other way around where some lurker decides to run up and take advantage of...

    How to safely transport a diesel heater

    We purchased our heater from Hcalory (Mainly because of the taller snap on legs that help get the exhaust from under the unit) ours had a dimple for the vent hole but no actual hole, not sure if that was by design or accident. perhaps you can order a replacement cap from them, guessing they...

    How to safely transport a diesel heater

    Andrew, I do not run the heater in the bag, would have visions of it melting through the bag in the middle of the night...lol I remove it and set it on the ground tucked under the back of the Jeep to keep it out of the majority of the elements. I leave the flexible intake air hose and...

    Mark, Nice! hoping you will post photos of this project. We have a 2013 JKU that we have given thoughts to a V8 conversion, would love to see how yours turns out. Looks like you are only a couple of hours south of us.

    Why does every winch bumper for new trucks look like optimus prime's helmet?

    Buckstop Bumpers made in Oregon, not a budget bumper by any means, but super well built and will stand up to a large animal strike. They only make this version for the 2015 F150, but they do offer a few options and can finish in a bunch of different colors. We have their Outback bumper...

    Eeyore our JK had a bit of power loss at high RPM going over passes while in Death Valley over Thanksgiving, and then I found oil in the air filter box this weekend while doing maintenance, previously never had oil on the filter. So tonight it is out to the garage to pull enough goodies off...

    Where are the 80/20 extrusion experts? Now with build pics

    On my JK, I also wanted to use the cubby space, I build my drawer system with the drawer stack and fridge raised 3-1/2" off the floor of the jeep in the back. A center divider creates two deep pockets where I stash a small folding table, two front runner chairs and during winter my diesel...
