    Brandy's 2012 JKUR Build

    Bruce, I don't have any info on ferry crossings. While an Alaskan trip is on my list it is still a few years out. I would think you could argue that it is part of the jeep and constructed in the same way as the OE fuel tank but that's probably something that needs to be done prior to showing...

    We have. We used it for the week we were in Colorado this summer and again last weekend in Arkansas. It works perfectly. No noise. The door swings freely when loaded with fuel, and the transfer siphon works extremely well. Only complaint would be that it completely blocks your view out the...

    After having completed the plate I sent it to be coated with LineX. The plate and slide can be removed from the jeep as one pice. With the quick release fridge slide and the alloy base plate I can remove the the unit in under 3 min and return the jeep to stock form. However since having...

    Adventure Trailers Combo Slide Install I had to put the roof rack on hold for a bit to make preparations for a trip to Colorado that I had put together. The first mod I needed to complete was the install of an Adventure Trailers Combo Slide: What's the first thing you do when you receive a...

    WTB: M101 CDN / M416 Lunette

    Looking for a useable Lunette for a Canadian M101 or US M416 trailer. Hoping someone has one they've removed and would part with for a fair price.

    Roof Rack Continued Brandy began by removing the factory windshield brackets while I worked on the aftermarket brackets. The bottom of the aftermarket brackets needed to be relieved so that they would not to rub the cowl. Melting Metal

    Bruce, The bumpers are very light to be as strong as they are. The strength is in the design and being made of stamped steel. IMHO I don't think there is another on the market that matches the body lines better. James

    Ouch!!!! Just kidding... Straight tubing doesn't match very well. That's much better.

    Roof Rack Build At first glance one might think the JK is just another boxy SUV like so many others on the market but upon close inspection you would be hard pressed to find a straight body panel. That being the case I've often wondered why manufactures use straight tubing when building...

    I installed the relay and breaker for the air compressor inside the battery box. I made up some 4ga cables using welding cable to connect the components. I also wrapped the cables in DEI heat sheath where they would pass close to the engine and exhaust. I was not that impressed with...

    Spod I elected to install an Spod to handle the additional wiring circuits required to power the Hella Lights, Air Compressor, and Winch Controls. I didn't realize how simple it could be. In the time I saved not having to build my own harness, fuses and relays it has paid for itself. In...

    Another place I had considered before deciding on the location above the axel was along side the driveshaft. Depending on your tank that might work for you.

    The tank is attached to the tub with 4 8mm bolts. If the suspension were to completely bottom out there would still be 2" of clearance between the tank and axel. Remember I have the 2.5" AEV lift. Not sure how much clearance there would be on a stock JK. I also shortened the legs on the tank...
