I’m almost finished building my LiFoPo auxiliary battery and associated electrical. Now, I’ve got to figure out how to secure it in my JKU. My battery is going in a re-purposed plastic toolbox. Please share how you’ve done yours. Is a hard mount directly to the floor better? How about some...

I want to carry 2: one in the front cabin where I can get to it quickly, and another in the back for my “kitchen”. I’ve heard to stay away from the popular dry chemical kind because over time the powder settles and cakes. I’m leery of the CO2 kind for health reasons. That leaves the AFFF, or...

If you owned my 45 lb auxiliary battery, and didn’t want it coming loose from its mounting inside the cabin if your Jeep rolled, how would you secure it? My early ideas include going through the floor using 1/8” steel fender-style washers with long Grade 8 bolts and nuts. Then, going across the...

When the day comes that it's my Jeep that needs pulling out, I will use a bridle. This is prevent one side of my frame being pulled more than the other. If I'm being winched out, I know that's a static pull; and a static strap (probably 20', 10' to each pull point) is required. However, if...

I can’t find one but wish I could. I recently sold my JV Signature in new condition after never using it. I bought an Oztent 1 with panels and fly which better suit for my situation. I have lots of questions which could probably be answered by Oztent owners if I could find them as a group. My...

I have the Unicorn, a 2006 LJ Rubicon. It has 33” x 11.5” tires already and Gen Rite flat fenders. I’m deciding between a Rock Krawler 2” Flex lift kit and a 3.5” one. My worry is just doing 2” will get the fenders off the tires but accomplish little else on trails. OTOH, the 3.5”, while...

I have a 46-qt AC/DC EdgeStar, soon to make its home in my Jeep. Normally, it will live off 12VDC current from my house battery through its DC power cord. It also has a 120VAC cord which I would like to leave plugged in to a 120VAC receptacle in my dual current Load Center. The only ways that...

I'm about to buy one of these in the 56" x 91" variety. I would like to know what, if anything, you have done to minimize the sail effect in strong winds? I'm thinking about adding some strategically placed eyelets for running guy lines. Just how bad is, and what are the effects of, wind on a...

I have a lifted JKUR and 37 tires. I'm thinking about putting a hard-shell Air Top on my Front Runner rack. The rack has added components that would allow me to tilt up the (closed) Air Top to access 3"H in the FR for flat things (MaxxTrax's, pop up potty house, tables, shovel, and anything NMT...

When you go down The Steps from Black Bear Pass, should I use front lockers, rear, both, or none? FYWIW, my Unlimited is heavy but has a TeraFlex Big Brake kit. Jerry

Tonight, I talked to a Jeeper who, with five others two weeks ago, did the Kiamichi Trail in southeast Oklahoma/southwest Arkansas. During what I understand is the Western portion where the trail takes no fire roads or NFS roads, they got spiked going through water crossings. My friend lost 4...

Are "jeeping" trips allowed here? I know there are some old roads in it; but are they any good to go somewhere worth going and camping out? Jerry

JK floor is clean and will soon receive a layer of Dynamat, or equivalent. What I need next is something to cover it: Pliable, thick enough to help a little with sound and temp on its own, can be glued down, and is washable. Does anyone know of such a product? Jerry

I've looked all over the Internet for inflation tables for my Nitto Trail Grapplers, but find none. Tokyo, yes; Nitto, no. I have access to individual wheel scales to use when my JKUR is filled up with stuff, water, gas, propane, and passengers. If I had the mfgr table, I could put in the air...

I put Rigid light bars and Duallys on my rack. How's the best way to get these 7, 2-wire bundles from up top and showing to down under my hood? Every time I've admired lights on a cool Jeep I've not noticed the wires. I want mine to be like that. Howdya do it? Jerry 2014 JKURV Copperhead
