    Towing with a Jeep Wrangler

    No issues pulling this, even in high head winds. With 33”s and 3.73s, no complaints except at high altitude where a bit of forced air induction always helps.

    m101a1 Build for my YJ

    Wow! That’s a lot of trailer at 1340lbs empty for a YJ with a 2000lbs towing capacity.

    A quick Aerodynamics question and Weight study of my DIY camper

    That front bulkhead can be completely vertical since you’re overlooking all of the drag generated by the rear.

    How Much Worst is an 80 in an Emergency Maneuver (swerve) than a 100?

    But what about panic stops? Oh, the horror!!!! And, yes, you’re over-thinking this.

    Army Military Trailer ~ Transforming Moveable Living / Workshop - $4,000

    Aluminum or steel, IRDGAF, then add up the cost of nine new wheels with retreads, and brakes, axle seals, and a couple of drums, a dozen studs, lug nuts and redoing the rotten air lines, plus the man hours because it’s all going to be a big rusted mess under there and tell me what you get. You...

    Army Military Trailer ~ Transforming Moveable Living / Workshop - $4,000

    Those are 6-lug, 9:00-20 split-rims. Best of luck hunting down those brake shoes. Gonna convert those wheels to 22.5” aluminum with a match set of retreads? Still gonna cost substantially more than those trailers are worth.

    INEOS Grenadier

    I’d be more excited if it was priced more in line with the Beijing clones.

    Army Military Trailer ~ Transforming Moveable Living / Workshop - $4,000

    The cost of putting new axles and tires on those trailers just kills any kind of use project.

    How Much Worst is an 80 in an Emergency Maneuver (swerve) than a 100?

    Silliest reason to switch to a Prado I’ve ever heard. So much of this “swerve” scenario are too variable to even counter.

    1994 Suzuki Jimny light build

    As I recall from these sold in Hawaii in the early ‘80s, the “flares“ came with the widened U.S. spec Samurais.

    Jku Engine Swap options

    The 3.6 is nearly 100hp over the original 3.8, perhaps your problem has more to do with poor choices in tire sizes with 3.21 gearing?

    JK(U) and JL(U) owners with an RTT I have a question

    Mine sits far enough back that it does not interfere with the freedom panel removal/replacement.

    Goodyear Wrangler Ultra-Terrain AT - is this a new tire?

    the Sumitomo Tire and Rubber Company is hardly “lesser” in any application of the word.

    Off Road Trailer Group Buy (M416 Style) ***Closed***

    Awesome! I have an sPod up by my mirror but all of the switches are in use. I was thinking of adding a second to the Jeep but thought why not just use it for the things I want to add to the trailer and install it in the nose box? I‘ll just run a small fuse tap from the TIPM fuse block to the...

    Is a Jeep Wrangler with a Defender Front End considered blasphemy?

    Blasphemy or not, I dig it, especially with the early Generation LR small grill and mesh cover.

    Off Road Trailer Group Buy (M416 Style) ***Closed***

    Scott, on your diagram can you further explain your ignition hot lead to the Renergy charger? If I do a long run to the Jeep starter battery with an Anderson connection on the rear bumper, that's a hot and a ground for a two prong connection, I get that but I am missing something where you did...

    JK traction control issue

    If you need a code puller I think I might be close. Off of Yosemite.

    JK traction control issue

    That sir is stability control, NOT traction control. The ABS brake system is activated at different corners to settle the suspension. I am betting that your steering wheel is not centered and you have one or more bad rear shocks. What is happening is a section of roadway is inducing body...

    Traction control or stability control?
