    Jeep Museum Coming Soon

    OK. Still don’t think of “Ohio” when I see a Jeep. And there are TONS in Colorado.

    Jeep Museum Coming Soon

    I actually didn’t. Never owned one. Never cared. But thanks for the lesson. There are 2 things I think of when I think of Ohio and that is rust and the electoral college- seems like Ohio is always important in electing a president.

    Jeep Museum Coming Soon

    Are Jeeps popular in Ohio? Like more popular than say Colorado?

    Very nice XJ.

    99 Jeep XJ Intro and expedition "build" attempt! Plus some restoration.

    Speaking of “full juice” to the headlights, this guy sells headlight wiring kits that use relays from the battery to provide power instead of getting power through your headlight switch in the cabin. https://www.danielsternlighting.com/products/products.html I installed the kit on my...

    you’re talking about tires, he’s talking about a helical geared limited slip.

    Comparison shopping: Colorado, Gladiator, Tacoma

    Here’s this weekend’s storm total estimate. I think you’ll be lucky to make it to Monday without a baby. Just my guess.

    Comparison shopping: Colorado, Gladiator, Tacoma

    Spectre6000- don’t you live in Denver? Or surrounding area? If so, I predict the baby will be here over the weekend. Why? There’s a storm coming in- big change in temp and drop in pressure. Both of my kids were born during a change in weather like that.

    09/10 5.4 f150 vs 11-13 5.0 f150

    When did the cam phaser issues get resolved on the 3V 5.4? Or did they?

    Where to get custom bumper?

    When you weld aluminum, you severely weaken the welded area- unless you post weld heat treat it. And I’m going to doubt that anyone is heat treating something as large as a bumper. So while it saves you weight, it may not save you. And yeah- bolt the winch to the frame.

    Changing fluids

    Definitely change the trans fluid and filter. I wouldn’t flush it. If the trans pan doesn’t have a drain plug, get one that does. I just put one on my Explorer and it was like $20. My Expedition has one. My Expedition, which is fairly similar to your F150, also has a torque converter drain...

    Questions - new to Pinzgauer - about to maybe purchase 710K

    There is a guy in my local overlanding club that had one- it was a 4 wheel model, not 6..... I’m not familiar enough with them to know the difference beyond that. If there was a planned trip with a group, he’d leave a day early to get to the meeting spot (he is retired so he had that luxury)...

    2020 Expedition Max vs. 2020 Land Cruiser

    The LC is not like other Toyotas that were mass produced. If you do find yourself needing repair in some shop (either in your hometown or while on the road), the Toyota dealership may not have the LC parts on the shelf. And then what could be a quick turn around for a repair turns into a long...

    GMT800 People - Opinions wanted on upgrades/mods

    sounds like a hell of a 4WHEELING trip. I think I would have gone with a better vehicle for 4wheeling trips though. You should try overlanding with your Suburban. I think it would excel in this realm better than 4wheeling.

    Full size SUV with best off road chops?

    According to this, probably about as many Expeditions. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.motor1.com/features/308681/longest-lasting-cars-trucks-suvs/amp/ Mine is lagging behind with only 257k miles. But it’s still running strong. And I’ve owned it for 4.5 years and have put 82k miles on it...

    Full size SUV with best off road chops?

    I’ve done the Alpine Loop and Black Bear Pass in my 1st gen Expedition. And several other trails around Colorado. It’s towed 7500 lbs when needed. Plus it’s taken me and my family of 4 (one trip from CO to SC also with 2 dogs) to both coasts and handles all the weekend family hauling...

    Built FORD Tough!

    There’s video of it still driving down the road. I guess if you’re going to bend your frame, might as well be while overloaded with all kinds of toys.
