Well, yesterday was a fun day. It was my birthday to start. I decided to do my front brakes and while doing them I found my u-joint on the passenger side axle shaft was bad. So, I pulled everything a part pulled the axle shaft and replaced the u-joint with no problems. Slide the axle shaft back...

So, I bought a Cobra 29 LX BT, ran the positive and negative wires no problem, ran the antenna cable no problem. Now, I ordered the Poison Spyder Tailgate Antenna Mount and the Rugged Ridge CB mount for above the Mirror. Problem one, the Rugged Ridge CB Mount is not designed for a full size CB...

Finally picked up a CB for the Jeep. Just debating where to mount it. I am between mounting it on the side of the console http://www.quadratec.com/products/96080_21X_PG.htm or above the rear view mirror http://www.quadratec.com/products/96080_1202.htm .

I was wondering if any one has the Synergy Front Track Bar Bracket http://www.quadratec.com/products/16315_60XX_A_PG.htm I am looking at buying it but was wondering if anyone is using it and if it is any good. I am looking at a bolt on, just because eventually I am going to buy a Pro Rock 44...

So, I just proved again you are never to old to learn something new. While installing my new Poison Spyder Diff Covers I ended up snapping a bolt off flush with the axle housing. Bad part is it is a grade 8 bolt. Before any one asks yes I was using a torque wrench that I borrowed from work which...

Well I finally got my Diff Covers installed.

Well I have my Poison Spyder BombShell Differential Covers all painted and ready to go when I get off of my crutches and do the Differential Fluid Change. By know means can I paint so for me this is an awesome Job. When I was a young Airmen when I first joined the Air Force, I was told to paint...

Here is min with the 3.8 liter. I have towed it all the way from Rome NY to New Mexico to California back to Texas and then back to New Mexico. It was a long summer. Like stated before the mountains between Arizona and San Diego was slow going but other then that I cruised at 60 - 65. The...

Well I picked up my Son's LJ I bought him. If you look close you can see my JK in the background.

Well, No wonder my Jeep never gets the love she deserves. I have bought my oldest son a 2014 Jk Rubicon 3 years ago and today I bought my Middle son a 2002 TJ with only 52,226 miles on it. I have one son left my youngest who eventually I will be getting a Jeep. All three of my boys are...

When / If I do a LS or Hemi swap can I technically tow more or is it more structural that limits the towing weight capacity rather than overall horsepower? Of course I would be upgrading axles to. Just curious.

I was wondering if you all have a opinion on the three different brands, the Omix-Ada is 113.00, the Mopar is 133.00 and the Crown is 49.99. I appreciate any help at all. It is leaking, the pump is probably still good but I am just going to change it out since it is off, Also any thing special I...

Thank you all Hi All, Thank you for all the comments, truly it has been an honor to be able to serve. It was a great career and allowed me to make friends all over the world. I truly believe this, a man's worth can be measured by how many true friends he has and the greatest legacy you...

Well it is official. I am retiring from the Air Force after 25 years of Active Duty Service. It has been a great life, spent the majority of my time overseas (the last 17 years straight to be exact). It has provided my 3 sons a future, all three are in the military. I have two boys in the...

Hey Eddie I also have a 1974 CJ-5, I have found finding parts, like internal guages and the indicators on the dash that light up are hard to locate. It seems most places go up to 1973 and then to 1976 and on. My wife's grandfather bought it brand new in 1974 and was left to my wife and I. I...

I just hate when people make assumptions.

Actually the front of my vehicle hit a dip in the riverbed as you can see the other jeep hit going around me. My hood was completely submerged almost to the windshield, but I had enough momentum that I moved forward enough to bring the nose up. A snorkel is mandatory almost in Iceland, and for...

snorkel I had to get in the water and hook up the tow strap and then walk in the water to attach two straps together with a D-Ring to get pulled out. There were a huge line of Jeeps on the other side you can't see. I was the third vehicle in line to cross.

Snorkel It is a must in Iceland, I was stationed there for 3 years and did not install mine, bad on me. I hit a hole and locked the motor. Luckily no damage. Pulled spark plugs, cranked motor and flushed out the water and it started back up. Most of the roads in Iceland have water crossings and...
