Hey everyone! Last weekend I went to the dunes with a friend of mine, and surprise surprise, ended up getting stuck. Now I know I've heard it everywhere, don't buy a cheap winch. Unfortunately I am a student and just could not afford a proper warn at the time of building and I wanted to at least...

So I just replaced the U joints on my dana 30 axle shafts because they were really bad. Put everything back in, tried to be super careful about putting the shaft back in but lo and behold once I start driving, it's puking everywhere. So tomorrow I'm going to pull them again, and replace my...

(At least I think they're called x-joints?) I did a tire rotation on Sunday and as I had the front lifted I just spun the tire and noticed how bad it really was.. Here's a video of said joint: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QfStnoAG5k I can't replace it right now because I'm fairly busy...

Hey guys, after about a year of ownership I noticed my trucklite flickering. I went outside and gave it a little knock on it with my finger and then it stopped flickering and it went out. I know they have a 3 year warranty so I'm sure I'll be fine. My main question is, has anyone had this happen...

Yep, rotopax mounts mounted to some scrap steel and then strapped down. the notches in the top are to lash them together with a strap and then I got two big heavy duty black ratchet straps that go all the way around the tire. to keep it strapped. The first photo is kind of a mock up of what...

The only issue with looking at brake lights is when you're directly behind it and close. In any actual driving situation (sitting on the left side of the car) you can always at least see one side. Further, making a third brake light is easy as piss. I made a combo third brake light, license...

I installed mine as well, and I think it was a 3/8ths. Be sure to have a spare on hand though... This is what happened to mine midway through install...

I have a 2007 JK and the single windshield washer nozzle gets the center of the windshield great, but then the rest of it is still littered with bugs. Are there any replacement nozzles that will spray left and right instead of center? Not looking to add two windshield washer nozzles like in the...

+1 on the good drill bit..... if you get the stinger of course.

Just for reference, here's what I use and how the finish looks on it. I love this stuff, very strong and holds up very nicely. Still looks great. Granted, I used an entire can on each of these because they're going to be seeing some abuse. I prefer it much more than the rustoleum truck bed...

You wanting to put 6 seats into a 2 door wrangler? lol

Hey guys, so one small thing I did since my last post here was repaint my seat brackets as they were starting to rust, good as new now! Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures. Now, as for everything else! I ordered some Truck lites, evo quarter pounder, revolution stinger, and an engo winch...

This is sorta how it looks when it's on the spare. Then I really wanted to add some USB ports into my dash just so I didn't have to carry USB adapters around with me and I'd have them free for other things, so I got to work on that. Came out just how I imagined it would really, You can...

You can see how right now it kinda casts a shadow with the raised lettering on the plate. Oh well, still legal. After this I needed a way to attach rotopax, and I didn't need them there all the time, just when I was on the trails so I decided to make a little thing to hold them beside the...

Finally getting ready to paint everything and put it all together. I used a lot of rustoleum truck bed coating for all of the tire carrier and it looks great and touches up fantastically, but it truly is garbage. It chips if you look at it hard enough. You'll see later I used VHT satin black...
