    Don't ignore everyone, buy a good winch!

    Hey everyone! Last weekend I went to the dunes with a friend of mine, and surprise surprise, ended up getting stuck. Now I know I've heard it everywhere, don't buy a cheap winch. Unfortunately I am a student and just could not afford a proper warn at the time of building and I wanted to at least...

    Trucklite LED headlight went out

    Hey guys, after about a year of ownership I noticed my trucklite flickering. I went outside and gave it a little knock on it with my finger and then it stopped flickering and it went out. I know they have a 3 year warranty so I'm sure I'll be fine. My main question is, has anyone had this happen...

    Are there any dual spray windshield washer nozzles?

    I have a 2007 JK and the single windshield washer nozzle gets the center of the windshield great, but then the rest of it is still littered with bugs. Are there any replacement nozzles that will spray left and right instead of center? Not looking to add two windshield washer nozzles like in the...

    Christarp's slowest build up ever

    Hey guys, I've mainly posted all my stuff in the what have you done to your jeep this week thread, but I figured I'd finally give in and consolidate some stuff for my own thread so I can easily look back and see the kind of progress that's been made! So, let's start at the beginning shall we...

    3 foot or 4 foot CB antenna?

    Hey guys, I'm finally going to get a CB as the place I wheel at has no cell coverage and I'd rather be on the safe side. Now, I'm a complete newbie to CB radios and I was just wondering what your opinions were on the 3' vs 4' debate. I'll be mounting it on the corner of the evo tire carrier, and...

    Difference between aluminium evo bumper and quarter pounder?

    Hey guys, I just found a pretty nice deal on a warn zeon 10S and I remembered it doesn't fit in the evo quarter pounder, but it does fit in the aluminium version evo makes, which makes me wonder why it doesn't fit in the regular quarter pounder. Anyone know what would be required to make it fit...

    Evo tire carrier joints hard to get on

    Hey guys, I got two of the joints on, but the other two seize up no matter what I do, they look kind of crooked going in, but they're most definitely not cross threaded, I got them in with my hands about 1/3 of an inch and it just seizes up. Should I just muscle them in? Anyone else have this issue?

    Am I the only one that EVO's website doesn't work for?

    For pretty much as long as I can remember evo's website has just been a flat grey, nothing else loads. I've used safari and google chrome and they both load it that way. What's up? Is it a problem on my end?

    Cutting shock boot off?

    Are there any downsides to this? My bilstein 5100s shock boot keeps coming off when extending, and I'm tired of going through zip ties to try to hold it on. On top of that, when I went out it was filled with sand because it came off at the top and was just trapping sand in there, seems kinda...
