    Warn Zeon 10 vs Powerplant

    I have a friend of mine who wants to swap his power plant for my Zeon 10-s so I could ditch my power tank and have on-board air built into the compressor. I called Warn today to inquire about the compatibility in power cables (his cables have some wear on the shielding so he wanted me to keep...

    Cruise Control not working?

    My cruise control stopped working on the way home from wheeling this afternoon. The "cruise" indicator still comes on when it is toggled with the steering wheel switch. There is no error or CIL, but the cruise control does not function when "set" is depressed. I checked the fuse box and I...

    PSC B-Pillar Armor with EVO rock skins?

    Has anyone tried to use the two together? Seems that you would have to cut the PSC armor a bit?

    The Rebuilding of Smokin's 2014 JKUR Build

    Havent really done much to the Jeep lately. Spent some time cleaning it up and taking care of the EVO bling. A Mothers Powercone and some polish goes a long way in a few min.

While this pairing...

    V8 Conversions

    Ive been researching V8 conversions for a little while now. When you actually pick up the phone and start talking to people, the information shared is far different than the neutered/filtered information that is on the interwebz. The LS guys all claim ultimate reliability, and a GM support...

    40" Nitto Trail Grappler Tread Life?

    I have roughly 4K miles on my 40" Nitto Trail Grapplers. With at least 2.5K of those being freeway miles. Everyone tells me that these tires have great tread wear, but Im having some doubts. I keep the tires inflated at roughly 29-31psi. Using the unused spare as a guide, I approximate that a...

    Zeon synthetic line install

    Use a clothes hanger. Spend the time to get the kinks out of a "unbent" clothes hanger. Fold it into a "u" and then use that to pull the rope through. I tried numerous sizes of wire ties and even small gauge wire. All of them broke trying to pull he rope through. It's a PITA but the clothes...

    Top 3 Rigs on WAYALIFE

    I agree with Greg completely. My favorites. GCM 2's rig. Really like the minimalist idea and is still an inspiration for my own build. If I could deal with having the back end open all the time, I would even do the spare tire the same way but the humidity in Houston is just too brutal. and EVO 1

    The Rebuilding of Smokin's 2014 JKUR Build

    Power steering update is done. Against the advice of many here I went with the Mopar intake which solved the fitment issues with the factory box, but the heat shield still needed some trimming.

    The Rebuilding of Smokin's 2014 JKUR Build

    I have decided not to butcher the stock airbox. If installed with the supplied PSC bracket, I would have to trim a LOT more than the edge for that one hose. I would have HUGE pieces of the bottom half missing. I would then have to do fiberglass repair or just leave it with gaping holes. I would...

    Wierdo Jenner at KOH?

    Was Bruce Jenner at KOH? News says his escalade was hauling an off-road rig. Looking at the pictures, it looks like a pretty serious race rig/UTV

    Yep. It's 10' and change (steps down about 4" from the 10' ceilings inside). The top fully hoisted still allows the hood to open

    The Rebuilding of Smokin's 2014 JKUR Build

    Decided to "upgrade" my power steering fluid reservoir to what it should have been all along. This wasn't done when the rig was at ORE since a mount for the reservoir for the 3.6's wasn't available then. A mount is available now but it has some drawbacks. Now I can't decide which approach I...

    Mopar to Showcase 2 Customized Jeep Renegades at NAIAS 2015

    Ha! Nah, I'm just pointing out that a Jeep Liberty had an interesting night with a Fiat 500. 9 months later we get the baby pics from a previously undisclosed romp from beer goggles in the club bathroom. The liberty didn't tell his friends because he was embarrassed but now we have to talk...
