    MERRY CHRISTMAS from WAYALIFE -- What did Santa Get Your Jeep?

    I very happy to receive this Nutsert tool and kit. My wife must have been listening to a few choice comments I made as I experienced a few problems installing the Nutserts for my EVO trail table a month ago! '07 JKUR ... mod'ing never stops...

    Gibson headers

    Hopefully your headers are not cracked. The only indication I had was a a slight rattling sound from the engine at start up and then once the exhaust system warmed up the rattling sound went away. I had looked for the source repeatedly but couldn't find it. When I removed the heat shields...

    Gibson headers

    I installed JBA headers a few months ago when I replaced my catalytic converter and the rest of my worn out '07 exhaust. My stock headers were cracked on both banks...which is the reason I decided to upgrade. Here is a picture of what came with the JBA headers. You get both header banks, two...

    50q ARB fridge

    Yes for my DC and AC plugs. So much so, I don't like to take them out for fear of damaging the cord and plug-in ports. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

    OEM Catalytic Converter Replacement

    I finally had some time to get to this project. Patience, removing the fenders and my air compressor were mandatory not to mention PB Blasting all of the associated fasteners. The PB Blaster worked as it has for me in the past, no broken fastners. The new JBA headers, spark plugs and wires...

    OEM Catalytic Converter Replacement

    Ok never mind on the fastener size for the headers to engine since the JBA headers just arrived with new bolts, but not the gaskets... That's ironic...

    OEM Catalytic Converter Replacement

    I have come to the realization that my dream of a LS engine swap are just dreams. I have been putting off replacing my exhaust for the past three years in hopes of replacing everything with the engine swap. Now I'm about to replace my entire exhaust due to age (9 years old), and the P0430...

    Crawl Box

    I have no idea what a "crawl box" is, but I have a 6-speed JKU too. If you want to go "slow" and crawl then place your Jeep in 4lo and use 2nd gear to crawl up about anything within reason. It it's really steep then put the Jeep in 1st gear. I normally use 4lo for obstacles when I need the...

    Great pics! Thank you for sharing. I appreciate everyone advice. I'm going to take my time choosing the spots to replace my fogs. I'm also glad this thread is helping more people than just me.

    Light bars - Really needed???

    Thanks guys for the advice. Coloradan I appreciate the pictures. I don't normally wheel alone, unless I'm in Vermont with family. The extra light will be needs in those few instances. I'm going to go with quality spots in the fog locations and see if I need anymore than that after the install.

    Light bars - Really needed???

    Thanks for the quick inputs everyone! I'm probably going to end up replacing my fog lights with something brighter that will augment my headlight lights on the trail.

    Light bars - Really needed???

    I am looking for your experienced based opinions about light bars. My Trucklites work really well on their own. I have my stock fog lights mounted in my ShrockWorks bumper which do an okay job of lighting up my lower field of view, but not well enough that I would feel comfortable...
