    Passenger Side U Joint Broke

    Good deal on upgrading from the aluminum knuckles. It took us 6 hours to get this, not mine, off the trail. She had a Reid Racing Knuckle waiting at the trailhead!

    SMORR vs. Flat Nasty?

    Hey Guys; This April I am planning on meeting up with a couple from Ft. Worth, TX area. Halfway between Detroit, MI and FTW. 2-4 days worth of wheeling. While we could move around some and that might be our best bet, I think we'd like to stay somewhere that has enough to keep us busy for a...

    Do you tow your Jeep in a toy-hauler?

    Maxxima 7" Round LED headlights

    I've used several Maxxima products with good results. I just came across these LED headlights. http://www.maxxima.com/products/product_detail/611/7-Round-Dual-Beam-LED-Headlamp.html I prefer their looks as compared to Truck-Lite, Quadratec or JW Speakers. I like that they look nearly stock...

    Evarts, KY vs. Windrock, TN or ??? for a long weekend

    Hello; I haven't been to Evarts, KY in about 5 years. I was riding an ATV then. What are the trails like for Jeeps? Would you recommend any other place for a long weekend in the vicinity of Ride Royal Blue, Brimstone, Coal Creek or Black Mountain? Thanks, Jerry.
