    How to transport with tow rig?

    Disclaimer, I like working on my own stuff and I would do this as a vacation. Drive it, if it breaks, fix it. Think of it as a learning experience. Most of the bolts should be SAE, bring a set of tools and give yourself some extra time. If nothing breaks hit a trail or two on the way.

    Nice STi. I still have mine, 05 wagon with most of an STi swap(not the brakes because it won't clear 15s). Did a few track days but I have always been more of a rally fan: If you want to play WOT, let me know, Can get you to a tier 4 in one evening.

    JEEP TRAIL OFFROAD GPS: What GPS is everyone running?

    +1 for back country navigator. I used to have it on a small tablet before I broke it, it works fine on my phone but I liked the larger screen. Can get maps from many places for free.

    You're Doing It Wrong

    This came across my youtube recommendations this morning. Not sure where to start with this. Bad spotting, mall crawler, not aired down(but has beadlocks), lockers not on, teraflex, inexperienced driver, stupid grill, too much purple, etc.. The break is at 4:45. Standard disclaimer...

    When you need an air compressor....

    My friends TJ has a York in place of his AC compressor and it is attached to a small tank, admittedly he runs an airock suspension so he needs it. He used to run an impact off of it all the time, both on the trail and in the garage.
