    Dynatrac rotors on back order for weeks

    Hi everyone, been a minute since I have been around. Browsed the site and saw a ton of familiar names. Hoping to not infringe on the forum rules here. Anyone with the Dynatrac Pro Grips have any issues with this set? I've ran them for two years now and my brake pads and rotors were worn down to...

    DIY hard top hoist

    Hey all, spent the day fixing up a few screw hooks into my garage ceiling. Would like to shout out Eddie for this job. Thanks for the inspiration and the video you put up. It was helpful but of course no project is always the same so I had some stuff I had to work out on my own. 🤪 I used 4...

    Freedom top panels

    Hey everybody, Had a fantastically dumb mishap with the freedom tops for my 17 JK. Called the dealer and mentally prepped my ears and mind for what I did not want to hear. They want just short of $900 for one side, and nearly $600 for the other side. 🤣 Anyone ever replace their freedom...

    Stubborn Diff cover removal

    I've been hacking away at my prorock diff cover up front to try and drain my fluid. I have a dead blow, I've taken razor to the outside layers sticking off the sides, tried wedging a screw driver in and I'm not getting any where. Used the screw driver on the backside and dead blow to try and...

    Paddle boards

    Hey guys, Does anyone like to use a paddleboard? If you do are there any brands in particular you like? Size? I'd like something that could support a good amount of weight (I'm 6'2" at 220) and a dog (or two) on there as well. Though both on at once may only be wishful thinking. Seems like it...

    Installed my new half doors

    Ordered up some Evo MFG half doors from Exodus. Finally got them painted (wizard black is the name of the color lol) by a place called CPC powder coating. They said it would match the granite color of the Jeep. That is up for debate but I think the color looks ok. Definitely not a perfect match...

    Advice w/ selling girlfriend's 2002 TJ sport

    I'd like to say I AM NOT trying to sell this Jeep on here! I am only trying to get advice from you guys to help add to her listing to resell the Jeep in a much fairer way than was done to her.

    Stop in Albequerque

    On my way back from Arizona I took a different route back to Chicago. Instead of through Nebraska, Colorado, Utah I went NM, Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, to Illinois. I think many of you will likely recognize this home and carwash. Walter White's home and carwash (A1) from Breaking Bad. I would...

    Jeep trip = found dog

    As many of you have likely seen, when passing through southern Utah it is pretty scarce. In some of the very small towns have hundreds of dogs they let roam free. Unfortunately they get near highways, get hit, get lost, and keep breeding and creating a serious problem. So we are passing down...

    Crown King AZ

    Hey guys, wanted to share I ran Crown King solo today with my gf. It's a very scenic trail. Lot of fun for someone inexperienced and definitely is a good way to learn limitations and what my Jeep is capable of. The trail goes from a desert area to forested area when you enter from Lake Pleasant...

    3.5 jspec suspension, DIY, am I crazy?

    Hey guys, Some of you may know from my older posts I am very new to wrenching on vehicles. Please pardon any ignorance. My plan is to rig up the suspension myself and trek out to Colorado on stock tires. This way, I'll save money on labor rates. Does anyone see any fault here? Any...

    Resell on craigslist

    Hey all, I'm trying to sell my stock bumpers/Steps/LED fogs on craigslist. I have them listed at $325...no interest yet. Probably because it's not a sought after list of items, any body recommend a selling price? Or what have you got in the past? Thanks! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using...

    Powder coat issues

    I took my JCR armor to get powdered. I have some issues. So this piece is supposed to slide into the left side in a slot that helps support the passenger side of the bumper. To my observation, the powder coat is over threading on the bolt. Doing me no good. Could a file fix this issue? I am...

    Rubicon for Sahara?

    Hey, all Short version: Thinking of trading in my 2017 Sahara for a 2017 Rubicon and taking the $$ hit. Rubicon stock features seem far superior to the rest. Not sure of the exact dollar hit I'll be taking, still gotta try and crunch numbers. Longer version: I was a bit impulsive and didn't...
