LOL Get to a level as possible spot and loosen the lug nuts and if you can get to it the axle nut. Lift the side affected and remove the wheel. If you...

    Light bars - Really needed???

    Hey utiadm, how did you get the pics to come out like that, every time I try to get that kind of shot it's all over driven by the lights. You must have a better camera than me! LOL

    Light bars - Really needed???

    Well I guess I am a little different, I have an 8" light bar above the fairlead, a pair of cubes on each corner of the front bumper pointed outward and another pair of cubes on the windshield pillar. I use them all the time either alone when we are out with the pups, or in a group situation. Now...

    Brakes/Neutral Downhill with Auto Tranny

    Very true but I tend to ride with my hand on the shift lever as a "just in case". Then I can quickly throw it in gear if needed. But hey that's me, don't know what anyone else might do.

    Brakes/Neutral Downhill with Auto Tranny

    On my 04 Rubicon I6 with an auto I have experienced the torque of the motor overpowering the brakes many times mainly at Calico where you are barely moving and you end up with both feet on the brake pedal! Very scary. I to end up putting it in neutral to coast as much as gravity will allow...

    The Great Gas Can Debate

    I keep it in a Home Depot bag in one of my 2 plastic bins with all of my off-road supplies, here is my post from when I first set this up. If the Rotopax sits high enough the siphon should work just fine just make sure the hose is small enough to fit into the pack...

    The Great Gas Can Debate

    My 04 Rubicon has a rear bumper with 2 jerry can mounts that sit between the tire swing and spare holding them in place very nicely, now I know you might not have this setup just throwing out what I have. One of my club members has the Rotopax and he got the spare tire mount for his stock spare...

    havoc offroad lights????

    I am running the Sierra LED dual lights on my TJ and love them. I have an 8" bar in front of the winch, 2, 6 LED pods on the front bumper and another set of pods on the windshield, they work great for me. They don't have the power a 50" bar would have but they are less expensive for those on a...

    Power Plant

    I think any synthetic line will be fine as long as it meets or exceeds the weigh rating of your winch, 9500 lbs. Enjoy your new toy!

    Warn Winch issues

    Go to Warn's website and look for the trouble shooting PDF's, it will tell you what's what. BTW you do not have an air hose on the compressor output right? If you do once it builds presser it will shut off everything.

    Off to the bone yard with ya!

    So a few of us were checking out a noise I was starting to get in the rear end and after draining the oil and pulling the diff cover we found metal shavings and small chunks in the oil and housing. Looks like the stock locker is self destructing! BTW the ring and pinion gears look fine. So the...

    Wanted, working JK headlights

    I am looking to find a pair of working JK headlights where you have replaced yours with LED's/HID's. The headlights in my TJ are pretty weak and I have seen a post where the JK lights are better and the bulbs can be replaced. Will pay for the lights and reasonable shipping costs. Thanks!
