    VANifornication!

    What a great build, I have a soft spot for these vans, and 29ers.

    Giro Code MTB shoe - 90 day review

    Um, you can say that again. This happened while riding in my SIDI shoes.

    Look out for the tides! Also, I'm gluing your desk to the wall. FYI.

    Slow Build: 2013 JK

    Yeah, it was. We are already planning another trip to north central MN for more of the same. Also, I finally got my antenna cable run today. I did the mount a little differently than most. I'm not a huge fan of the handset mounts that go behind the grab handle on the dash. Something about a...

    Nice. My neighbor has the exact same color Jeep. How are you liking the tires so far?

    Slow Build: 2013 JK

    We took our first little off-road trip this weekend in Western Wisconsin: Minor water crossing: My friend in his Land Rover: We went to a small bar, and hung out with some locals: They sold camo can coozies with the bar logo on them for $3, so we all bought some with our food. I had...

    Purchased my first jeep!

    Wow. Nice score for $400. I love those things. ...you should also probably put up one picture of your Skyline. Just saying.

    JK Unlimited Expedition Build

    This might be a dumb question, but hows the wind noise? I have had roof racks on pretty much every vehicle I have owned, so I'm familiar, but I have not had anything of this...magnitude.

    SUPER nice! How was the Gobi install? One is on the docket for my JK this summer.

    Slow Build: 2013 JK

    Thanks! Just got my 911 out and ready for the summer, so now (hopefully) I'll have some more time to work on the Jeep. All the CB stuff is here, so I'm going to get started on that this week. I also ordered this to calibrate the CB...

    Slow Build: 2013 JK

    Put this on today: Seems like a good spot to set beers and riding gear. You can also kind of see the CB antenna in the back. I got a rugged ridge spare tire antenna mount, but I might send it back. It mounts crooked, and the antenna is at a slight angle. I'm planning on installing the CB...

    DIY Fairing for roof rack. Would like advice.

    On a whim, and in about 20 minutes only armed with a box cutter and zipties I made a faring out of a couple campaign signs (the kind that get stuck in your lawn) and it lasted two years. You could probably use that as the backing of the the "hinge" area, or you could make the whole faring out...

    The black emblem is in the mail as of yesterday...I found a dealer on amazon that sells OEM for $7 each. I was expecting junk, so I only bought two at first. Showed up in MOPAR wrapping. Super nice! On the speaker-I was thinking of adding it to the sound bar...I need to find a nice one first...

    Slow Build: 2013 JK

    Yeah, I waffled back and forth between the two, just for that reason. This is my first radio, so I'll see if a need arises for a portable unit. Thanks! That's some solid advice. Thanks, I appreciate it. I do have a truck scale near my house that I have used in the past, so I was going to do...
