    AEV Front Bumper/Winch Plate/Skid Plate

    LOD Shorty Rear Bumper w/AEV Carrier

    So I know this might be a stretch, but here it goes... I am currently running AEV full width bumpers front and rear and I am on the brink if making the switch to shorty bumpers. That said, I REALLY like the AEV carrier since it is frame mounted and linked to the tailgate (with no extra...

    CB Tuning Issue

    Around the beginning of the year, I installed a new Cobra 75 along with a Fire Ring coax and 3' FireStik. The antenna was installed on the top of my AEV tire carrier mast. At the time of the install, the lowest I could get my SWRs was in the low to mid 2s. After quite a bit of troubleshooting...

    Optimum Caster for PR44 Unlimited

    Hoping to pull the trigger next week on a PR44 and was curious what the optimum caster is with the 10° housing. I'm currently running the stock 4.2° of caster and have heard the extra caster in the Dynatrac axle adds a nice level of stability. Driveline vibes aside, what caster angle is a good...

    Just a Feeler: 2014 Rubicon Front Axle Housing w/extras

    Just wanted to put a feeler out there as I am itching to pull the trigger on a front axle swap. :) I would be swapping my carrier and gears into a ProRock44 along with all the outer hardware with the exception on the Dynatrac ball joints. In addition to the ball joints, the axle has a few...

    Tie Rod Ends Shot

    Tie Rod Recommendations? I've been noticing a bit of slop in my steering recently and today while under the Jeep I took a pair of channel locks to the TREs on both ends of the Tie Rod and Drag link. The ends on the drag link were solid, however, the driver's side TRE on the tie rod had quite a...

    Nature Valley Commercial

    Just came across this earlier today on Facebook. https://youtu.be/is5W6GxAI3c In all honesty, keeping our boys active outside was one of the reasons for our Jeep. It seems to be paying off because all they keeping asking about is "when is the next Jeeping trip dad?!" :)

    Mopar High Clearance Flares

    For anyone looking to retain the factory flare look. However, at $795 for the set of 4, they seem a bit pricey! http://www.mopar.com/part/77072341AB?s=370177&i=6531254&b=jeep

    Real locker not releasing

    Today while working our way through the Tillamook Forest, I ran into a small issue with my rear locker (factory Rubi e-locker) . It would not disengage. I tried every trick in the book including backing up, driving in circles, etc. with no luck. After driving quite a bit with it stuck on (all in...

    CA OHV Sticker Required?

    I've done a brief search and haven't come up with much other than what is on the CA DMV site. Is a green OHV sticker required here in CA on our Jeeps when on trials such as the Rubicon on the Dusy? Reading on the DMV site makes me think it is required, however, I really haven't seen any talk...

    Front Driveshaft Vibrations.... Still

    After recently swapping gears to 5.13s and having the front driveshaft changed to a J.E.Reel 1350, I picked up a high frequency, oscillating vibration. Thinking it was driveline angle related, I ditched the AEV Brackets and stock lowers and replaced them with EVO Lower Control Arms. I have...

    Lower Control Arm Time (driveline vibes)

    Just picked up the Jeep from ORE this afternoon after having them install 5.13s and a J.E. Reel 1350 front drive shaft with new yokes. Starting at about 50, I am getting a faint, high frequency, oscillating vibration/hum. It is worst at about 55 and slowly fades as speed increases but does not...

    Road Trip from SF to Seattle - Where to stop?

    The family and I are planning a road trip to Seattle from San Francisco in April for Spring Break. While we are going to be seeing some family in Seattle, the vacation will be more about the journey than the destination. :) Does anyone have any recommendations for us to see along the way? I'd...

    Gear Oil for 5.13 Gears?

    Getting regeared next week to 5.13s in my Rubi axles. Running 37" tires and will do a lot of highway driving on the hilly highways in CA. Should I be running 75w90 or 85w140. Drew at ORE says the heavier weight is what they run and I'm in agreement based on my driving. However, just curious...

    Are Relays Necessary for lighting?

    So I was all set to build my own relay/fuse box next week thanks to a couple of great write ups here on WAL, however, I got to looking at the current draws and I am second guessing that decision. For starters, here are the accessories I plan on running and their associated amperage: * 2 x...

    Inspired Engineering LEDs?

    Anyone have any experience with their lights? Specially looking at the 6CUBE lights. They run about 60% the cost of Rigid D2s. Seem like they could be a great option. Any thoughts would be appreciated! ERAU

    Winch Solenoid

    Can anyone recommend a good winch solenoid? My Warn 9.5 is currently wired directly to the battery and I'd really like the option to switch off the always hot power wire. Thanks!
