I've only been off-roading three times and I tell people that the published 'difficulty ratings' should be based on your level of prep (rig), your skill (experience), and your desire (or lack there of) to 'just send it'. My buddy with the aforementioned Gladiator has a 2" lift rolling on 35's...

At least from the pictures shown, I think your frame of reference of "beat to hell" might be skewed Mike. ;) I've seen 10X worse on Jeep DD's that have never even seen a trail or have engaged their 4WD. As for as the wiring, use of bus bars is a step in the right direction that is not found...

Geez...there is no excuse for that! :eek: :mad: It's not like there aren't a zillion videos on YouTube, or websites that explain how to use a sewer connection on an RV. :twak: I didn't know any of this when we bought ours earlier this year, so I read, watched many videos, and asked the...

I helped a buddy change the transmission fluid on his Jeep JK. He ended up breaking one of the M6 pan bolts. We tried PB blaster, and heat, but it just wouldn't budge. A two hour job turned into four since we had to run into town to get a bolt extractor. It was still a b*tch to get out...

If it had the Snap-On name on it, I'd wager more than one person here would pay $200+ for it.

All my cordless tools use the Dewalt 20V stuff. I don't have nearly as many as I'd like but I do have a pair of 3/8" drills, Impact Driver, Ocillating Multi-tool, Desktop Fan, and a Leaf Blower. I prefer the larger 4aH or 5aH batteries, but I do have a pair of the 2aH ones that I rarely...

This thread reminds me of this marketing gem...

Nice work!

My 1911 knife that a buddy gave to me for my 60th birthday last year.

I built some cabinet doors for our camper as seen on Post #296 here.

Replaced the old incandescent bulbs in the instrument cluster of my 2003 F-150 with LEDs. AI was wrong yet again on the size bulbs needed, but a buddy of mine has the same era truck who steered me into the right direction.

My wife and I spent most of 2025 heavily involved in our local Jeep club, especially with our annual fund raiser. We had a committee of nine of us that did 95% of the work for that big event and our thanks from the officers were micromanangement, and literally no actual thanks (words) after we...

Just MIG weld it. The flex portion will fail long before the welds do. I know because this is the setup I have on my race car.

I do the same with mine. In my mind if something fails, however unlikely, I'd rather it fall one foot instead of six.

Very nice! Now just send me one with a Venmo request.
