    Best Coating to Prevent Rust on Tools Attached to Outside of the Vehicle

    I hate to bust your bubble but shovels, axes, and picks, mounted under HMMWVs in the pioneer rack, outside Strikers and LAV-25's, etc are all painted and have been for decades.

    2013 10A JKUR rear storage plans

    Is the weight and volume of those wooden boxes and drawers a better option than two (or four) similar sized plastic boxes? Also, do these drawers allow access to the under floor storage are and easy access to your Jack? I have had drawer systems, similar to your design, in several work vehicle...

    GPS tablet from news feed???

    I'm going to take the gamble, this is an impressive set of features. Android 4.4 (Kit Kat) 6” Flexible, sunlight viewable, E-ink screen (1024x758) with front light Glove friendly capacitive touchscreen i.MX 6 DualLite 1 GHz Cortex A9 processor 1GB ram 16GB memory + microSD (up to 128GB) WiFi...

    Bogert safe jack, bottle jack

    Don't get me wrong, a bottle jack has its place and the Bogert system is incredibly well engineered kit, I am even considering getting one. In place of the factory bottle or scissor jack that comes with most vehicles, it is absolutely viable but I would not eschew the utility of the Hi-Lift as...

    Bogert safe jack, bottle jack

    Sure, if all you're doing is changing a tire then that six inches of bottle jack lift is fine but when you get down to it, a bottle jack is just a jack, with not near the broad utility that a Hi-Lift can provide over a much wider set of circumstances.

    For those considering 255/85/16s...ST/MAXX is coming soon

    That being the case, then LT265/70R17E Jeep JK take-offs, which are the same diameter (and LT255/75R17's for that matter at 32" dia.) and are frequently available on Craigslist are quite the steal. I am currently running the 265/70's on my JK. I sometimes wish that they were two inches larger...

    235/85/16 Goodyear Wrangler Authority AT's or 265/75/16 Treadwright Guard Dog's???

    All those big pieces of ragged rubber on the side of the road? Those are retreads. Never put a retread on a steering axle. I used to dispatch for a small trucking company a long time ago so I picked up a few things about retreads along the way, that and spending my formative years in my dad's...

    ute trailer

    I looked at that pic of that unused driveshaft flange on that axle and a thought came to me. Could that be used as a PTO to drive a generator while being towed? Probably just a crazy idea........

    Water Storage/Water Container - Front Runner Jerry Can?

    I've bought a lot of stuff from Front Runner, it's a great company and their delivery service for me has been beyond exceptional. I have purchased many of their products and have been very impressed with all of them. I have thrown the Scepters from a helicopter to the ground in a low hover...

    Water Storage/Water Container - Front Runner Jerry Can?

    That spigot is junk. If you want a jerry can for water get a Scepter. Lexington Container Co. has them for $38.00/free shipping. I had two in blue arrive yesterday.

    Baby Jeep 2015 Renegade?

    This will be a great addition to the Jeep line-up, adding needed mileage numbers to their CAFE average. Make no mistake, if we want Wranglers, then Jeep needs this baby-ute or we won't get Wranglers, plain and simple. This will be immensely popular in Jeeps global market. I find it a much...

    Another "I wish this was in the US" thread... The CCM GP450

    It's one cylinder short for any trip longer than ten miles and the Brits NEVER, ever get anything correct, right out of the box. Now, change up the tires on the Honda NC700XA, put a bit more float to the suspension and we might have something to start with. S/F. Nothing follows.
