The sand at my property get's everywhere! :ROFLMAO: Seeing that front driveshaft, I'm surprised it isn't worse looking. That sand is so fine it amazes me every time. I usually leave that place taking on a nice layer that makes me feel very tan until I take a shower. 😆 Mostly I blame this...

Mike, if you find sage wrapped around the seals. It's 100% my fault! :geek: The good news, it should have purged the "Evil" spirts. :ROFLMAO: (I have been using the Jeep like a tractor to clear sage from my property :pimp:)

My thoughts exactly, dirty shop, dirty hands, etc. This install felt more of a "Damnit let's get it over with!" The end where they are "Breaking in" the gearing made me cringe, but i felt like that's what they were going for. :ROFLMAO:

Oh here you go. This is their newest creation, a Jeep JKU made into "Mini Mater". Has JLU rear axle and JKU front. Made from parts of other Jeeps in their lot, them preparing it for the recovery games this spring. At first, I shed a tear watching them cut the JK up, but the final product is...

I was just watching trail mater guys do gearing on youtube, and it got me thinking about a comparison between Mike and them. I think the Gifs can explain it best... Mike, Trail Mater,

I have been using tub O' towels for years, great stuff. Something like 6 or 8 Years ago while prepping to do some auto paint work, I had "Venom Steel workshop wipes" recommended for cleaning up tools and skin. I never used them but put them into the bin of auto painting supplies and shelved it...

It's better than the stuff I use to remove copper fouling from precision barrels. Smells like old cat piss! 🐱🐈

No offence taken; I was just trying to be funny at my own expense. (y) ;)

I Identify as the hack that "Welded" that bubblegum. Nothing to see here

Looking great! Also I was sitting here wondering why you didn't do the other side while the diff was heated. Answer = it was buried at the bottom of my toolbox!! I sent you a text, let me know and I can drop it off before you start work on the diff/seals.

Now Mike can correct me if I'm wrong, however it seems like Mike is the kind of guy that finds stuff like this fun and entertaining. I for one like the diagnostic side of things, it's how I like to spend my Saturdays. So many times, I'm watching Netflix with the wife, and then I possible...

Every time I see Mikes shop I'm in Awe. One day I'll probably move out of this toxic neighborhood, and if I do I want a big backyard shop for my various projects. Just last week I was trying to find some tools that I know I have, but where did I put them? :ROFLMAO: My tiny little 2 car...

I don't even know what to believe any longer. :cry: What's next, a battery powered mower, trimmer, and edger? :eek:

I saw my birth home on worlds wildest police chases many years ago (vegas!). :lol: I'm glad we left that neighborhood. Best to move on, your current neighborhood seems really nice. I loved your original shop, and I really love your current one! :love: And the motorhome project, My needs...

"Stanford and sons" :ROFLMAO: Yeah, we have one of those. Broken down washer and driers in their back yard. Over the summer he built a "shed" out of one of those tarp covered garages made out of poles. It almost looks like he picked up the panels to box it in from various dumpsters... I'm...

That neighborhood sounds great, like the one I grew up in. Where I grew up was very pricey, it probably kept the trash out... :lol: And I hope you haven't seen my yard this year. ;) When I moved in 13 years ago, it was me and one other guy that kept perfect yards. I also bought this house...

Oh man neighbor / hood issues. :ROFLMAO: When looking at houses, my agent showed me a few that had a homeowner's association. One was really nice, the homeowner's association was for the community pool, but I rejected it because of the association. I live in an area where there are a ton of...

I have heard of the stock valve springs breaking on people. Not sure what causes it, I would expect it to break early on and not after many miles. And that's one thing I like about the PAC springs I have in my Tahoe's 6.0; double valve springs. In my mind it's a little redundancy to prevent a...

Both a pita and a godsend for me at this point. :cautious: The day before I was headed down to the Manti to go pick up a new toy that's made of about 3,000lbs of aluminum :whistle:, the jeep got hit while prepping it for the wife to use while myself and my father-in-law were down checking this...

I forgot to add this to my post above. ;)
