    Hummer, End of an Era

    I just hope they keep making humvees so I can get parts! Nice pictures -- that shot of the sma slantback coming down the reaper has always been a favorite of mine. Ron B

    Air Compressors (On Board Air)

    I've had a Viair/5 gal tank in my truck for about a year now. I love it. I got the 200 psi model compressor because I may play around with airsprings in the future. The other reason I got it was to run air tools. Makes changing these 8 lug wheels a bit easier. It's also great for blowing...

    This would make a pretty sweet Car PC!

    I've considered using a Mac Mini mounted somewhere in my truck, and just having a mini keyboard and small screen where I could reach it. It's a/c, but uses very little power so an inverter wouldn't be a problem. RB

    Anyone in SoCal Up For A Drive?

    I know those guys well. John just bought that truck a month ago -- he used to have a white one. He is studying to be an EMT. Staying local is good for me too -- my son is 2 and a handfull! The longer trips can't happen very often with my work schedule/son. Gorman, Rohwer, and Miller Jeep...

    Anyone in SoCal Up For A Drive?

    The trails were fun, but we had to cut John Bull short. It was crowded on the trail and a truck in the group infront of us blew up the tranny(Bronco)...took a few hours to get it off the trail. We turned around about a third of the way into the trail -- fearing darkness and breakage. Here's a...

    Anyone in SoCal Up For A Drive?

    It's really not as bad as everyone thinks -- but there are a few hairy sections. You are right, a rear locker and 33's are a must have on this trail. I'll probably have a seat open if ya want to ride along and have some tasty beverage? Ron B

    So far it's me plus 3 other trucks for Sat. We're doing Gold Mountain on the way to John Bull. Should be a great time assuming no drama. So far it's a hummer only trip (me, 2 H2's and an H3)...I was hoping some other brands would represent and come join the fun (now's your chance to come...

    Anyone in SoCal Up For A Drive?

    so...anyone still going? Next weekend I am going on a trip to the Big Bear area to run Gold Mt and John Bull if anyone wants to go. There are 2 or 3 other trucks coming to, so a few more would be fun. Ron B

    Anyone in SoCal Up For A Drive?

    I am interested. Cleghorn is pretty easy with some fun/gnarly off-shoots. It will spit you out near 2N17X whick is a fun/short trail. Lots of good stuff in that area. Ron B

    2007 Jeep Wrangler Four-Door (pics)

    wow, with the top on it looks like an H3 -- or visa versa. That picture of the black/diesel is pretty cool. Hummer rims are pretty heavy, I'm sure there are alot of better ones out there...though maybe not 2 piece? Ron B

    Safety Harness

    I too was thinking of some kind of harness. The factory belts seem fine except when at extreme angles they lock up, which keeps me from peeking out to check my line (or, more often than not, how much paint I'm losing). If I unclip to check, there's no way to re-fasten the belt. Ron B

    Anyone in SoCal Up For A Drive?

    did you guys do the trip yet? I just saw this thread and I'd love to meet some local people. Rower trail is fun (Santa Clarita area) and Hungry Valley has everything from sandy creek beds to fire-roads to gnarly "I just ruined my seat" hills. A friend may be doing a quick trip through...

    Airbags over leafs?

    looks like those are sleeved bags...I was thinking of using the bellows style (double or triple bellows). When deflated they are small and light, pretty easy to change. They are as thick as a tire sidewall so the chances of blowing one is...? My mechanic has had them on his humvee for a...
