    OME AAL or Airlift suspension.

    So, just to bounce this to the top, I ordered and received my airbags this week. I did a custom kit, that was the XJ kit, minus bags, then I added bags that were longer but same diameter. Just shy of 10" max travel. I am hoping this weekend I will get them install and post up pics. This...

    Cheap Fridge <$400 shipped

    That is great info to know about their customer service. I know we added the 5 year warranty to ours and I had talked to them via their live chat, asking about if we had to ship it back. They recommended hanging onto the original boxes, so I have. I just need to clear out some room in the top...

    Photo Critiqing Thread

    I'm no way a photo critic but that is a great shot. Love how the color of the water and building just adds the right mood, especially with the candle lights. Great job in my book.

    JK/J8 Flippac rumor??

    Damn I want one of these so BAD!!!!! I have been going over things for the last few days figuring out how I can sell vehicles to buy a JK, so I can get the Flippak. I can not wait to see one in person.

    First Fancy Camera

    Seriously, read the G11 thread going on in this forum. You can have it do full auto everything, special modes (portrait, sunset, landscape, night, etc.) or get into more manual/auto modes or even full manual. Size is a big benefit as you get all the features of the full DSLR with the size of a...

    First Fancy Camera

    I had been in this same delema for a couple years and finally got serious about finding what I wanted. As mentioned above, you really need to be honest with yourself on what you are going to use your camera for and what you want to shoot with it. I was all set to get a full size DSLR as I...

    JK/J8 Flippac rumor??

    Damn you Mario and AT. Now I am trying to figure out how to sell everything (dog even, if needed) to buy my Rubicon JK so I can get this Flippak option. Heck, I am almost tempted to put a deposit down and I don't even own a JK. Basically this would just about complete my dream truck. The...

    What $400 can get ya off of Craigslist...

    First let me say... I officially hate you... j/k :elkgrin: Very nice setup. The Gobi rack is the ONLY rack I have lusted over for my XJ but the $$$$ has kept me away. 400 bones, I would have had it on my rig too. :ylsmoke: Great find and congrats on one of the best racks for a Cherokee.

    Looking for some Canon G11 (any G series) advice

    Sorry I am still learning all about mine but I did find thru research if you are looking for adapters to use filters, telecoverters or special macros, Lensmate is the place for the G10/G11 cameras. http://www.lensmateonline.com/ I used this adapter "A" and "B" to use a 72mm UV filter on our...

    Auxiliary Light Plans - Suggestions?

    Though I haven't gotten it mounted yet, I picked up a Go-Light from TacoDoc a couple months back. I originally was going to do something similar to above with side and back lighting but with this, I think it will cover all of that since I can just spin it around to where I need it. Can't wait...

    Unusual Problem with Track Bar on XJ

    So, you had a dropped pitman arm but not a track bar that was dropped equally, correct? That can definitely cause some wierd bump steer. Always make sure the track bar and the drag link from the PA to the knuckle are in the same plane and angle. This will keep bump steer to a minimum or zero.

    Unusual Problem with Track Bar on XJ

    I have read about people having problems with the Rusty's one and some other that end up binding and breaking joints, bending rods, etc. Personally I would not go with any brand that did not offer a frame mount and joint that wasn't in the rotational plane going up and down. There is not that...

    Odyssey vs. Diehard Platinum

    Will be checking wiring as well. Something could have come loose but I have upgraded all the cable to 4 gauge so hopefully that is all still good and tight but thanks for the heads up.

    Odyssey vs. Diehard Platinum

    Difference is, I trust me, I don't trust them. I have been working on cars longer than some of those yo-yo's have even been alive. Plus, they are testing the battery only, I want to make sure my alt. and starter are tip-top and not a cause of a problem. I also want to make sure I don't have...

    Odyssey vs. Diehard Platinum

    My question would be why would I need any charger? If my altenator is working correctly (which I will verify) and I have driven long enough to charge a good battery, why should I need to have any external charger at all? The Jeep sat for a week after being driven 6 hours with one stop for...

    Odyssey vs. Diehard Platinum

    Oh yes, I will know for sure what the problem is before I go to Sears. I'll be taking a bunch of measurements and see if I can get a load tester too. Now if it would stop raining. :D

    Odyssey vs. Diehard Platinum

    Well, I still need to check things out but it is seriously looking like my Platinum battery might not be holding a charge. It is coming up on 1 year old and on our Death Valley trip we had one start that I wasn't sure it was going to crank. It did start on the second try but was a slow crank...

    Auxiliary Light Plans - Suggestions?

    First comment is WOW, that's a lot of lights. LOL Not sure what your rig is but I would make sure you have a very high output altenator and very good batteries to run these. If you power all of them and nothing else, you are looking at about 55 amps of current draw. If you are only looking...
