    Jeep NuKaiser: Images and Driving Impression

    If they would build it people would buy it. Seems like a no brainer to me.

    "Old Willy" FC170 in Portland on CL--$650!!!

    I have always wanted and FC 170. I'd look for one with less rust if possible. You don't see many on the road. You see them once and a while in Hemmings and Jeep Truck.com.

    Roof Rack Gear Security

    When my rig(s) is fully loaded I don't like to leave it to far out of sight with or without a roof rack. When you start adding up all the extra goodies and equipment inside and on your rig it really adds up $$$. You can use a bike lock cable type of lock and padlock some things on the rack. So...

    Homebrew Jeep Modifications(DIY)

    I'm Cool now... I painted the center of my black hard top with Solar Flex roofing paint. You can't see it from the side of the Jeep but what a difference in inside temp!

    Looking for a better tent.

    I have an REI Camp Dome (4 person) and I know whatt you mean about the ventilation. I have thought about making some nylon panels that I could velcro in over the screened section to make the tent a 4 season tent.

    XJ roof racks

    I have had a ConFer rack in the past on a Jeep and have a 4' x 5' Defender Rack on my H3 and have been happy with both of those. You get some wind noise when the rack is empty but it could be reduced with a faring on the front etc.

    FORD RAPTOR EXPEDITION (pics)

    A lightly loaded Rapture with a camper shell would be great fun but if you need an expedition rig with real load capacity a 1-Ton truck makes more sense.

    265/75/16 bfg all terrain with the E rating (2nd gen Taco)

    I thought BFG had that size in a D rating? Load Range E tires ride rougher based on my experience.

    once again, rumors of new Jeep pickup

    Jeep should make a JK Unlimited with options that would include a full length hard top and a pick-up cab and bulkhead with half rear steel doors. That way you could have a 4-door unlimited and then convert it to a "Brute" like pick-up when you wanted to run in truck mode. You would basically...

    2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    I hope you can put 16" rims and a tire with some sidewall on the new Grand. Those low profile street tires are a hinderance off the pavement. Maybe the Overland Package has something in store?

    "Jeep Panda" coming in mid-2011?

    I am so exicted I don't know what to do. Should I buy a Panda rather than a Jeep Rubicon Unlimited? Give me a break! Why not call the just call the Panda a Fiat 4x4 car.

    ARB Locker Problem

    It sound like an internal issue:( I'm not sure why articulation would make it leak though. I have had some 90 wt gear oil blow back up to the ARB air switches when the locker was released but nothing like you described.

    What's the burliest trail/obstacle you've overcome in your full size?

    Huntoon If we are thinking of the same place in Anza...As far as the drop off you wouldn’t be able to get thru the squeeze with a full size rig. In Canyonlands I've been thru Elephant Hill and to the Dolls House in a stock Dodge Ramcharger. Width was usually the limiting factor with a full...

    ARB Locker Problem

    Does it leak air out the vent when not fully articulated? With the locker on can you wiggle the blue hose and cause it to leak?
