Here's the pic of how to measure the amount of lift from Eddie's JK FAQ: I don't have a lift kit yet, so I'm curious how some of them compare too. Also, the overall weight of the vehicle will affect how much lift the new coils will add too. A heavy Jeep with steel bumpers, armour, a...

I think this sums it up pretty well...

I think this thread is overdue for a bump... I finally took the top and doors off today: It was good to go for a bit of a drive with it all opened up, even if mother nature was conspiring against me... I think next time I'll wait for warmer weather before I think about doing this again.

I have a bit of a line starting to form in the leather on my driver's seat too. As long as it doesn't start to crack I'm not worried, but I'm a little more concerned about this: That's on the upper part of the driver's seat, from the belt buckle being sandwiched between the seat and the...

Thanks for sharing these pics. They do give a good impression of what this little Jeep is like. My previous vehicle was a Mini Cooper, and at one point I had thought about trading it in for a Paceman or Countryman so I could have a car that was cloae in size and handled similarly but was a...

Oh wow... and I thought it was bad up here. Speaking of, our snow and ice is slowly going away now...

I just saw that post. Obviously the sleeve didn't help the axle, so I doubt a truss would have made much difference too. And judging by the rust, it was cracked for a while before it finally failed:

Just saw this polished up Zeon winch on Warn's facebook page: I'm thinking it could look really nice in an aluminium EVO or PS bumper. No idea if they intend to put it into production or anything though. It's probably just a concept.

That is a sweet looking Renegade. I just hope the lift gives it a bit more flex than stock. It's kinda funny seeing videos of this thing trying to get through trails with a tire in the air (even if the traction control system can usually make up for that).

I saw this on facebook today... and it reminded me of these guys trying to tell you that you don't know how to winch. Seems like in Australia they do it the same way: ... not that any of us needed any reassurance that you, Mel, or anyone else on the JKX knows what they're doing. I just...

I just found this article on the challenges in developing the next Wrangler. It looks to be missing some of the latest announcements (like the fact it will have solid axles), but otherwise it sums things up fairly well:

Awesome contest idea! And if I'm lucky enough to win, it would be pretty timely too. I'm planning on getting your 4" crawler short arm lift kit this spring, and I'll need a good set of shocks to go with that. :D Here's a photo of my Jeep, a 2014 JKURX. I always wanted a Jeep, but the big...

Already picked up the new cords. A 2 m cord for at home (which is the right length to reach to a plug in on the driver's side, but too short to use where the plug is over on the passenger side), and a 10 m cord to stay in the Jeep for when I plug in at work or anywhere else (long enough that I...

I posted this in random pics, but it really belongs here:

I was thinking it was more because... Seriously though, it would more likely have been from freezing rain, but yeah, it probably came loose as one sheet after someone warmed up their KL.

Fridge + tool chest = awesome idea. If I had a garage, one of these could be handy to have.

That thing has large wheels with low profile tires too. That's just asking for a bent rim on the trail. I'm not sure if Starwood is trying harder and continuing to fail, or just finding new places to find their "bling." Saw this the other day and thought to myself, "Starwood must have been...

The Indianhead, in Indianhead, SK. Apparently there was a TV series filmed here too... One of the grain elevators along the way. I had expected to see more, but I think they're more frequent along the Yellowhead Highway to the north. The big moose in Moose Jaw, SK. There's also a...

I read through the Roadside America thread Eddie started, and I was very impressed with all the little attractions along the highway that people were sharing there. It's inspired me to start a Canadian version of the thread. I haven't done a huge amount of highway traveling with my Jeep yet...

I hate to say it, but I feel like I should be tossing in a shovel...
