    Cb hook up

    For a hard mount vhf/uhf radio you want an NMO mount antenna Here is how my radios are set up I tried to seperate my antennas as much as possible. For what you will be doing an amplifier is overkill. I would say sell it and use the money to get a Kenwood or Yaseu radio to hard mount in...

    JCR front Bumper

On my last trip I used the highlift jack points to lift the front passenger side off the ground (no, not to change a tire, dang sway bar disconnect was kicking my...

    I had new gears put in, 4.56 nitro gears. Also had the master rebuild kit installed. Did the break in, 4 heat cycles of mild driving for 20 to 25 minutes. Then had the fluids changed at about 200 miles. I used Amsoil 75w 90. As i was driving the Jeep home i noticed a rythmic hum at 70 MPH that...

    Gear oil

    Seat Covers

    I was cleaning out my Jeep the other day after installing and cleaning up some previous install stuff. I noticed a wear spot on the drivers seat that up close looks really bad. It's where my wallet would be, but i usually hate sitting on my wallet so i put it in the center console. I'm rambling...

    On board air JKU

    I am a true believer in the ARB system. I have filled tires in about 15 to 20 minutes. I believe the ARB I have has a 30 minute run time. I have the CKMA12 ARB compressor. The compressor is mounted under the hood on a Synergy mount. Since 15 to 20 minutes is to long for me i added a Viair 2...

    Help with emojis

    Can someone create a list of what the imogees mean? For instance, i see :cheesy: all the time, and i have no idea what it means. I'm tired of trying to be cool and act like i know what it means. Should i have put a :yup at the end of this? Maybe i should, but i dont know, because i...

    Which locker?

    I see the logic. But when i see $900 for an ARB, plus (on the high side) $1000 in labor for the install, I'm at around $2000 with a locker and nothing else. If i go with the replacement rubi rear end, that's more labor intensive, and would probably be in the $2000 range for labor and misc...

    Which locker?

    I recently had a change of plans to my build. Long story short, the wife said no to my dream. I am going to add a rear locker to the stock Dana 44 on my 2015 JKU Willys. Couple questions: ARB or Ox? If Ox, would you go air, electric, or manual? I was recently told that Ox may be facing some...
