    "Bruce" the 2014 Jeep JKUR Build Thread

    Yup. That's what I did too. The cylinder was really dirty also. My problem was I ported the head too far so it didn't hold pressure. And when resoldering the motor leads, the bare wire touched the casing. I never started it but I figured it would short out. I tried putting my ported head on a...

    "Bruce" the 2014 Jeep JKUR Build Thread

    Missing my ARB OBA set up, I spent way too much time taking apart my old MV50 air compressor last week. Plans to create a dual MV50 OBA set up turned into a ported and rewired MV50, which turned into non functioning MV50 and a bag of junk to return to Home Depot. Learn from the mess on my...

    "Bruce" the 2014 Jeep JKUR Build Thread

    I'll have to post a more detailed most about all the hidden mods. But here are some quick updates in the mean time. I used the Teraflex antenna mount to attach my 2m Ham radio antenna. The bracket is designed for thinner CB antennas. So I had to drill out the top hole to fit the ham antenna...

    Educate me: 100 vs 200 series to replace my jeeps

    MTSN brings up a good point. Everything on Jeeps seems to cost $400. Everything on Land Cruisers costs $1000. The preventative maintenance and preservation mindset is good if you actually keep it that long. Once I had the realization that I'd sell the Land Cruiser at some point, my perspective...

    Anyone here have a Puma 12V Air Compressor?

    I'd get in on that. Has anyone mounted one in a JK? I have a compressor mount for the engine bay but it's more for an MV50 or ARB sized compressor. This one seems a lot bigger. I like the compressor, I just wouldn't want it if there was no good place to mount it.

    Your rig does being new meaning to "everything and the kitchen sink." My jeep weighs half what your 100 weighs. I'm trying to put our gear and build on a diet and get more into outdoor activities and less into rock crawling rock crawling's sake. New sleeping bags, chairs, pads, tents, and even...

    "Bruce" the 2014 Jeep JKUR Build Thread

    No problems with the Jeep so far. There was a "waterfall behind the heater core" noise at first. But they topped off the coolant at the first service and the noise went away. No regrets. Somethings I miss. I miss the build quality some. I've embraced the disposable/disassemble-able nature of...

    Help needed with Jeep JK Storage Drawers

    You're going to be better off moving the compressor. That's a strange place for a compressor with all the vibration. You could even mount it to the drawers, or in the engine bay.

    I was waiting for Front Runner's black friday sale. Then I saw this thread and found these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0026VQC0I/ref=gno_cart_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER There are a ton of reviews of these chairs breaking or ripping but they all seem to be from a few years...
