    JL-EXPERIENCE : REUNION - PART 1 | Overlanding Across the Mojave Desert

    If the "pro" filming guys are producing the feature videos then this, in my mind, is the bonus track. It's the alternate behind the scenes and extras disc that we all want because we can't get enough of the fun. Plus I always like to look behind the curtain to see what really goes on from the...

    NEW SHOES for CALAMITY JANE - Cooper Discoverer STT Pros

    I was just having this conversation this weekend. A buddy was going on about how I can keep the JL nice and beat on the CJ-5 since it's old. My response to him was was that I was more likely to beat on the JL and baby the CJ. Despite the money difference, I still love the CJ more and it holds a...

    The build of my flag ship Black Pearl

    Just thought you would find it funny what pops up at the bottom of the page every time I check out your build updates. It's what happens with a Jeep named the Black Pearl I guess...

    New JL Sport S

    Front Bumper Well, after 3 weeks of waiting, the bumper is here. LOD had been pretty swamped with orders as I understand so pretty much build and ship. Definitely worth the wait as usual with their stuff. Looks great on the Jeep even if a bit naked without a winch yet. I had the plastic sport...

    New JL Sport S

    Flares I managed to snag a box of these really hard to get (at least at the moment) paintable Rubicon flare set. Turns out there are a ton on backorder just about everywhere and out of stock for another month or so, I was told. This was the last set out here and they were in Los Angles. With...

    CJ 5 or 7

    The value just isn't there for what it would cost to ship it anywhere. Cj5/7 bodies are still plentiful and aftermarket is huge to repair original ones. If it was rare that might be different. If you keep your eyes open, you can find a decent whole Jeep for $2000-$2500 and ship it anywhere in...

    CJ-5 Project Old School

    New Flares Ordered up some new flares. The old ones have been off for months and I have debated on whether to replace them or leave them off altogether. In the end, I really felt that since a CJ of my year had the flares when it was new, it should stay that way. Plus, I have actually always...

    CJ-5 Project Old School

    Long time since an update :-( Got a leaky oil pan that is a bit dented. Overall, the engine is pretty leak free but I do need to replace the pan which I knew going in. I will be ordering that next month. I need to get it prepped to go to the frame repair center. I have a bonus coming and I...

    New JL Sport S

    Bit of a pain... Took about an hour. The driver side couldn't have been easier. Passenger side sucked. You have to remove the air bag part way to pry open tabs on the top and bottom. I couldn't see how to take it apart until I cracked the old one from pulling on it. Looking at the new one I...

    New JL Sport S

    Brightening Up The Inside I wasn't really happy with the grey/silver dash inserts, especially since I initially test drove a Rubicon. I really liked the red ones that it had but they were not available on a sport. I found a Mopar parts outlet website about a week and a half ago that was selling...

    New JL Sport S

    That was faster than I expected. Got a call while I was at lunch today that my 4 wheels were in. Wasn't expecting them this quick so that was a surprise... a good one at that. Small hiccup, the wheel sensors are not working so we'll have to sort that out later. Other than that, all is good...

    New JL Sport S

    Busy Weekend It was a busy weekend for sure. Got the lift done and I can say it was probably the easiest lifts I have ever installed. That said, it still took a lot of extra time because I only had hand tools. I was wore out by the end of it, and a little sore too. It was still very much...

    New JL Sport S

    Arghhh. Stopped at Discount today and had a bit of an issue. Not with Discount, but their vender. Apparently, even though my sales guy called and verified stock and sent all the correct info, the vender now says wheels aren't available and are out of stock/backordered. I was going to get the...

    VIDEO : MOBY MANIA - MOTECH Drone Footage of Our LS WRANGLER Racing Across the Desert

    No matter what other Jeeps come and go, I feel like Moby is the foundation that Wayalife was built on and has earned his permanent spot in the garage. He's not just a Jeep, he's history on wheels.

    New JL Sport S

    Stuff Picked up the Mopar tailgate brace and tire carrier brackets to raise the spare up to fit a 35. Super easy install. Also, with the tires in at Discount and wheels hopefully tomorrow... I knew I need to be able to calibrate everything. Took Eddie's recommendation and picked up a JL Tazer...

    New JL Sport S

    One Step Closer Lift kit!! Used a 15% coupon for up to $200.00 off any Mopar parts purchase... so $1295.00. I felt that was a pretty good bargain, and the Dealer here had like, 11 of them in stock. Really good instructions even if the install seems really easy. Still deciding tires and...

    Kill it With Fire

    Because destroying JK's isn't enough, the JL is now kindling for this thread. Fab fours proving that some people will buy anything to be "different".
