    VIDEO : SIMPLE TIP to Get UNSTUCK

    Another great video! This simple approach would save a lot of people the cost of a tow out in the area where I live who park in the sand just off of the pavement. Every year I see several cars and trucks up to the rear axle in the sand waiting on a tow truck.

    Duck left on my door handle

    As the title states I had a mini rubber Duck left on my door handle in the Walmart parking lot. It has “#duckingjeeps” written on it. Anyone seen this or know about it? I’m clueless on this. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

    Does anyone have a shop that they recommend in the Norfolk, VA area? I moved to Norfolk about a year ago and I hadn't needed a mechanic until now. Last week my wife was driving my JK and it appears that the TOB has completely failed from what she and her Dad (retired mechanic) were able to...

    Matt's build

    It been a long time since I updated this thread. So after running the Ultra Flo “muffler” for a few years I finally got tired of it. Too loud and the drone (2,200-2,500 rpms which is where I tend to drive at RPM-wise). So after a lot of online research I went with the Dynomax Super Turbo...

    Belly cam install

    I like how you installed the camera. I would waterproof the RCA connectors that come off of the camera. I installed a waterproof forward camera when I got my new head unit because it has an input for a rear camera and a front camera. I ended up installing the forward camera under my front...
