    VIDEO : PIPPI on the Rocks Testing Her Rubicon Sway Bar Disconnect

    Another great video! Always impressed with what a stock JL can do when driven by an experienced driver. Thank you for sharing!

    VIDEO : SIMPLE TIP to Get UNSTUCK

    Another great video! This simple approach would save a lot of people the cost of a tow out in the area where I live who park in the sand just off of the pavement. Every year I see several cars and trucks up to the rear axle in the sand waiting on a tow truck.

    Duck left on my door handle

    As the title states I had a mini rubber Duck left on my door handle in the Walmart parking lot. It has “#duckingjeeps” written on it. Anyone seen this or know about it? I’m clueless on this. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

    No electrical power...

    I opened my JK this morning using my key FOB (doors unlocked and headlights came on) and got in. The Dome lights were on and everything seemed normal. This is my daily driver. I pushed in the clutch, put the key in and turned it in the ignition and nothing happened. Dash didn’t light up. So...

    What was done to your rig this week?

    Finally got my hardtop put into “storage” after going through a bunch of rack options that I was going to build. So instead, I used my existing hanging rack system and “family man power” to get it up there. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

    What was done to your rig this week?

    Installed the Synergy gas tank skid a couple of weeks ago to replace my OEM skid that was a bit beat up and had rusted through in one spot exposing the plastic gas tank. I ran into the same issue Eddie did when he installed it with the holes in the aft passenger side bracket not being tapered...

    Shop Near Norfolk, VA for clutch replacement

    Does anyone have a shop that they recommend in the Norfolk, VA area? I moved to Norfolk about a year ago and I hadn't needed a mechanic until now. Last week my wife was driving my JK and it appears that the TOB has completely failed from what she and her Dad (retired mechanic) were able to...

    Matt's build

    It been a long time since I updated this thread. So after running the Ultra Flo “muffler” for a few years I finally got tired of it. Too loud and the drone (2,200-2,500 rpms which is where I tend to drive at RPM-wise). So after a lot of online research I went with the Dynomax Super Turbo...

    VIDEO : JL Journal - MOPAR All Weather Floor Mats Installation

    Another great installament! The mats look clean and functional, much improved over the MOPAR slush mats in my JK. I really like the drain in the front mats!

    Welding to an axle

    Most likely you will not damage anything if you are only welding on brackets. If you are concerned about heating up the tubes too much, then place damp rags a few inches on each side of the tube from where you are welding. It will prevent the heat from traveling down and affecting the inner...

    M37 Barn find

    I would keep it as original as safely possible. Depending on how the brakes and suspension feel, I would recommend upgrading them so I knew when I drove it I would be able to control it. Congratulations on the great find! Enjoy bringing her back to life in the manner you see fit!

    VIDEO : JL JOURNAL - First Taste of DIRT

    Great video! I was happy to see that you actually needed to use the lockers before you engaged them. I am liking the JL more and more with each video!

    4x4 shop

    What area/city are you near in NORCAL? Without knowing, it’s about a 300 mike swath of potential area for a shop to be potentially near you. I personally would not want to drive more than 50 miles to a good shop.
