    Leak after new driveshaft install

    Okay so use your imagination a little because this is the t case side and not the pinion side, but they look similar enough to explain. The axle side if left without the cover will let all sorts of crap into the pinion bearings and seal.

    Bumperless backup light ideas, show me what you got.

    Mounted on top of the tail light. Seems like that's the only picture I have of the back part of the jeep.

    What did Brown Santa show up with today..

    Drove over the snow bank from the snowplow to get in my driveway.... I have no clue why it ripped 3 teeth of the ring gear. Had I been driving it like a lunatic or wheeling the crap out of it I could understand, but seriously my 14" snow bank?!? So instead of paying a shop to replace the whole...

    I'd say jk brick is absolutely right. BDS 5 1/2 long arm. I was just looking at their long arm conversion kit the other night. I have their SA kit and the control arms are the same stype.

    Jacking on an uneven surface.

    Just chock the tires man, do it safely, last thing you need is a vehicle on top of you. My wife's vehicle always rolls if it's just on the jack. A couple pieces of lumber will usually do it if your not wanting to buy proper chocks. Don't try to shortcut safety.

    Ox locker

    I also run an ox locker, cable actuated. I have it in my rear axle. I like it. I don't have any complaints and I really like that the cable routs through the cover. I had a real (personal) issue with drilling in to the diff housing, and did not want to mess it up. I have used it a number of...

    I have a Fiskars X15 axe as well as a Fiskars brush axe. I would not mount anything anywhere in the vehicle that Is going to kill someone in a crash. They are high quality and stay sharp. I have used them many times. Mine are strapped through the blade covers between the seat back and the cover...

    FIRST TIME : Lifted Jeep Renegade Trailhawk & Stock JK Rubicon on the Rocks

    They were referring to the EJS trail ratings, or the RR4W rating rather. I just don't see it completing some of the trails for clearance. Very impressed none the less. Great video, and like I said, keep them coming to help our case for mods.

    FIRST TIME : Lifted Jeep Renegade Trailhawk & Stock JK Rubicon on the Rocks

    Not that I'd buy one but still quite impressed with its capabilities. I have a friend that let his wife buy a Renegade, trying to convince her to let us have our way with the car... keep posting sweet videos so I can use them in this uphill battle. When I was at EJS 2 years ago they said stock...
