modelbuilder, check out www.4xguard.com for some of your WK stuff. I know a couple guys who run some of Russ's gear and are happy with it. WJ's are solid rigs. I wouldn't hesitate to own one.

Sorry to go off topic here, but I don't see a custom paint job on that hood, did COP ever man up and do what he told you he would?

The 7.3 itself is a tank. If you get the slushbox 4R100 behind it, it's only a matter of time before it fails. If the CPS recall is done, you're fine there, and if it's not done it's very easy. The UVCH (under valve cover harness) that powers the injectors and glow plugs can fail, but that...

When my harness went I didn't have a lot of time to mess with it, so I did pay to have it fixed. It was about $200. Pretty simple stuff really though. The biggest pain is getting the turbo pipes out and back in.

I've got pretty much the same truck as a tow rig. Bought it around 96k miles 2.5 years ago. Looks like you're headed down the right road with things. I've found fuel filters for < $20, but can't remember for the life of me where I got them from now. If I remember, I'll post up. A tranny...

Got my 35's yesterday. 4 of them mounted, balanced, and road hazard for $850 after rebates.

The Discount on Colfax found me some 35x12.50R15's and has them on the way.

I'm 6'5" about 300, and XJ's are on the small side as far as being comfortable. But most of that is due to girth and not height. My ZJ has a bit more room for the legs under the dash, but my legs are excessively long so that's a major problem area for me anyways. My dad's 6'4" 240 and drove...

As the owner of a 2001 F250, there is NO way I would trust the stock auto transmission in that scenario, and that ride would be bumpy as all get out!

DeLorme's got the PN-20's on sale now for $199 too, so a little break on price.

Do you need to go that high for 35's?? I've got on 01 F250 as a tow rig and run 33's on it with stock suspension. I wouldn't think you'd need 4.5" of lift for 35's, but then I haven't looked into the suspensions for Super Duty's too much as I don't take mine on trails very often, that's what...

Gotta have some parts to use the tools to replace too! Is your F250 a 99-02 7.3? Have you had the CPS recall done? If not, you NEED to bring a CPS with you pretty much wherever you go.

I have the PN-20 and have been very happy with it so far. Little bit of a learning curve on getting it setup to function how I wanted it too, but EXCELLENT performance in the vehicle. I've used it to navigate remote areas I've never been in before with great success. The standard maps from...

Can't offer any insight on the rig, but the grilled cheese sandwiches at the Gunsmoke Cafe are the best I've ever had! Hits the spot after a day in the mountains with a 2 hour drive still to go.

While 2 hours may be a long time for an immediately life threatening situation, I think 2 hours for a remote rescue is actually very good. It's part of the risk we take when we venture out this far. Helo's can definitely speed up the rescue as opposed to land-based rescue, but helo's aren't...

Pete, In CO the laws are pretty easy actually when the weapon is in your vehicle, which is where mine typically resides when we're out and about in the mountains. CO law permits a loaded weapon inside the vehicle and it can be concealed. UT, the only other state I've taken my weapon, has some...

I have a Glock 21 (.45) that goes with me almost everywhere when we're out wheeling or camping. My wife (who has the same issue, VERY small hands) has a Kahr CW9 that she takes with her. Both weapons were purchased with the primary purpose of home defense, but outside of the extra-large frame...

Thanks for the info! Do the legs on yours stick down or are they protected a bit?

I've still got my original NES that my parents bought me for Christmas circa 1986, still "kinda" works too!

That was my first guess!
