Hello all. Been a while! My 2013 Jeep JK is getting a little long in the tooth with just under 150K miles on it. It has had some overheating problems now for a while, and after a quick redline of temp, got the call that I need new head gaskets. The quote to replace the head gaskets, send the...

We have an '07 JK that has sat for about a year now. Went to move it and the transmission won't shift out of park. Any ideas on an easy fix for this? Thanks

So I need to pull the trigger on a couple items for my Jeep. I think I'm decided on the Synergy tie-rod, but not sure on the steering stabilizer. Pretty sure there is a version that mounts on top rather than low like stock but I might be missing something. The one last thing is the rear diff...

Finally getting around to doing this. I have them off and marked at 2" to trim. At this point the cut would go right through a weld. Just wondering if this is normal and ok.

I believe this organization has been discussed here so I thought I'd share. I have not fact checked all of this, and I am not saying they do not do good things, but be careful where you send your money. I know many of these charities get too big for their own good...

I bought a small 4x7 utility trailer so I can move stuff around the ranch, pick up supplies, etc. The most drop I could find for the hitch was 8" and it still ramps up quite a bit. I have seen people as they build off road trailers flip the leaf springs to sit on top of the axel and thought...

I am starting to see some cupping on my front driver side tire and curious what might be causing it. Shocks only have about 22k miles on them, so they should be good. I have 40k on the Jeep so thinking I might be due for ball joints. The Jeep rides fine, not noticing much of a change there...

Finger or no finger?

So I've been slacking on doing my tire rotations. As Gus would say, I'm glad I'm not afraid to be lazy. Anyways, my spare tread is now measuring a solid 1/8" + more of tread than the others. Do you think it is still safe to rotate in? Or should I just start doing the basic 4 tire rotation...

The Jeep Wrangler actually managed to grab two category awards; the two-door model topping the compact SUV segment and the four-dour Wrangler Unlimited listed as number one among mid-size SUVs...

I got rear ended on my drive home today. Everyone is OK including my 5yro daughter who was with me. I just got home and will be taking it in, but visually it's tough to tell anything happened. What "behind the scenes" problems would you look for? Tailgate seems to open and close OK. Spare...

Curious if there would be any interest in a run from Georgetown up to Uncle Toms Cabin this winter. The road is not maintained in the winter so it can be a fun snow run, followed by some beers. People can also come in from the Ice House side if that is better for them. Thought it might be a...

I have been sitting on these for a while now, but I have 5 Rubi take-offs sitting in my shop that need a good home. They had about 18,000 miles on them when I swapped them out. $300 OBO Pick-up Only Located in the Placerville Area Thanks

I am going to be up in the Gold Lake area for a few nights next week and just wanted to throw it out there if anyone wants to meet up or will be in the area. My main plan for this trip is more about camping, fishing and :beer:, but will probably be doing some day runs in the area as well. I am...

So after more research (see other thread), Ellis Lake looks awesome. Some background, I didn't plan too far in advance, so I am looking for a place that I can feel comfortable going in alone (although the more the merrier). The trek up to Ellis Lake looks like it would fit the bill. I would...

Hello from NorCal! Looking to do some wheeling/camping this weekend and one of the closest spots for me is Eagle Lakes. Looking for some info from people familiar with the trail and destination. I'd be heading up Friday and camping Friday and Saturday night. A few questions... Are there...

Wondering if anyone has done this, and if so where they camped, any advice, etc. I've ran Poker Flat a couple times and would love to do this whole thing. I would probably start in Downieville, and head up through Poker Flat to La Porte that way. Trying to figure out how much time to budget...

Since there have been a few discussions about this I thought it would be interesting. For this to have any value, I think a consistent set of values need to be noted. Measurements need to be taken mounted under load, and at normal DD PSI. A picture showing the measurement is a nice bonus...
