    Rear diff skid plate

    You should use it, it does take a bit of practice. Mine is just a harbor freight Flux core and some hf .030 wire. I wanted to install it and a bunch of other stuff 2 weeks ago but life has got in the way, next weekend is out too ill be out of town. Might take off one day next week if it's nice out.

    Cummins 2.8 Swap

    Yep colorado is the same, and im sure there would be a rats nest of wiring to figure out. On cash for clunkers it's just a guess but I haven't seen too many 2.8 jeeps running around since 2012 or so, maybe the owners wreck em,maybe the owners didnt take care of em or maybe they are hiding em I...

    Cummins 2.8 Swap

    You could put the direct copy of the vm2.8 just with extra epa parts by using gms 2.8 duramax they were built in the same vm plant and not much has changed since that stopped. They are visibly still almost identical, and I'm gonna let out a huge secret here they use some of the same parts. My...

    Bison Diesel is GONE...

    Never seen that concept before, there must be a reason besides cost that they didn't follow through because thats not much extra metal there. Looks like the top half is bolted to the top of the bed and the bottom is either welded or bolted to the slider, do you have any side or closer images? I...

    The Status of Overlanding Today

    You mean you don't want to spend thousands of dollars just to eat a sandwich on a dirt rd? It's everyone that associates with overlanding on YouTube that does that, at the half way point you can bet they will be cooking some hot trash on an old tractor disc blade then show their camp setup like...

    The Status of Overlanding Today

    Where is the cursing you keep saying is happening? Maybe pm that person. Or actually call em out for it rather than try punishing everyone with the nanny state language. By the theme of the thread I think you may need to worry more about people leaving on their own accord. Don't be a Jim sog...

    MOLLE panel on 2019 Subaru Outback cargo hatch

    Sorry everyone on here is busy complaining about something. What do you plan on putting on it? I've debated putting some panels in the bed of my truck but decided I don't really like the tacticool stuff.

    The Status of Overlanding Today

    Yet here we all are complaining about something we're all doing. To be honest between here and ob seems that's all overlanders do is complain about others doing the exact same thing as them. Maybe a more expensive or less expensive rig it don't matter either way both complaining about each...

    Rear diff skid plate

    5x #4 rebar isn't near as easy to bend as the thin wall 1" dom tubing that aev uses. After all the heat I put into it it's more likely it will Crack than bend. Either way it's beefier than aev bolt together transmission skid is.

    The Status of Overlanding Today

    I guarantee that overlanding has hit its peak, with the new fuel prices( and other stuff happening) we will find out this summer who is wealthy or not and who really loves this hobby. I imagine there will be a lot of people quitting pretty soon, the plus side is there will be plenty of second...

    Isuzu FC Locking Rear Differential Info

    From the scant research I've done (20 min or so on web) I've found that there isn't a diff locker for npr trucks, there was a factory limited slip option but they are rare and you likely won't just find the unit for sale it will be a complete axle assembly if you can even find one and you will...
