Since when did we all turn into ninnies and be deathly afraid of the highlift jack? They are a staple in industry and off road and since the advent of the internet everybody is afraid of them. Or is it just a sales pitch for all the goofy crap they sell to try and replace it? Blow up doll...

I bought an 08 base model, has the off road Bilstien shocks. I also picked up some 12 TRD sport front coils. They are a larger wire diameter. (.640 vs .685) will this net me any lift on the front? Going to put some 5100's on the front and wonder if I should set them at .85 or 1.75. I have the...

Ok so who has modified an off the lot travel trailer for off road use? What did you do? I have a 16' Starcraft ar-one extreme. It works. It is lifted a little. And so far hasn't beaten itself apart. But I am wondering what I may be overlooking as far as failure points in the future.

Is there a way to delete or turn off the tire pressure monitoring system on an 09 F350? Beyond a piece of tape over the light, or smashing the led in the cluster with a hammer.

I want a soft riding shock for my crew cab. I don't need better handling. It is not hauling a camper. I don't need extra stiffness. I want to be able to drive for hours on rough potholed gravel at slow speeds and not beat my teeth out. Suggestions?

Who's got one? An Aussie style tray back. Or one similar to the AEV Dodge. Not your typical scabby iron flat deck, something with some off road style.

Has anybody had any luck improving the mileage on a 5.4 in an F20 orF350? I had an 04 extra cab and it did ok. 16 or better. Most claim this is impossible. I am looking at an F350 crew cab short box and would like to get the best mileage I can out of it. No I will not buy a diesel. Too many...

Something that has always bothered me about vehicle prep threads and "You should buy this type" of vehicle threads is the lack of thought given to the availibility of spare or replacement parts. I suppose if you are Mr. Moneybags and can afford a support crew and have supplies flown in to you at...

Spotted these at the local sporting goods chain today. Are they any good? The wife likes the idea of being able to bake stuff while camping. I am thinking of adding one to my camp trailer I have in the works.

Anybody running V8 grand cherokee springs in an Lj? I have 4.5 full traction front springs in my 05. Even with the winch and bumper it hits like a cement truck on the front. I have done some searching and it looks like V8 cherokee springs might be about the right rate and installed height...
