    Fire Extinguishers Inquiry.

    I was on a trail ride with a stock TJ one fall. We were doing two track thru a large section of hardwoods. A bunch or dry leaves waded up around the exhaust/skidplate/cat area and caught fire. The jeep was so low that it was difficult to get at the fire. We used 3 fire extinguishers to put...

    Mounting something to the top of a truck tool box

    I'm guessing your tool box is aluminum diamond plate. The diamond plate ridges may cause you a little grief with getting a good seal but with silicon, I'd do it. Alternatively, isn't the yakima mount aluminum too? You could have a shop weld it on.

    Poison Spyder Defenders

    Probably old news but these are flipping cool. I talked to them today and they are testing a set for YJs. Hopefully available by mid February. They look super sturdy, and I think more militaryish (is that a word?) Has anyone seen these in person? Link

    Why do Europeans go winchless?

    Because when they get in trouble they ask others to bail them out:):):):)

    Opinion on which direction to take on my build.

    I like the looks of the stubby bumpers better. I always hear the argument about full width providing more protection but I have not run into damage issues on my own jeep and I run ATV width trails all the time. Also agree with removing the rear seat if not needed

    Welding on a vehicle

    Still trying to wrap my mind around this...Isn't everything that is 12 volt in an automobile grounded to the frame. How would disconnecting the battery stop voltage from being back fed from the welder via the ground. I don't understand what disconnecting the battery would help. Maybe someone...

    Truck guns?

    I love that gun, we call it my "church" gun b/c I always carry it when dressed up. I carried it exclusively for years, its so compact, never in the way. I bought a glock that I really like too, so now the airlight is only for church.:sombrero: As far a truck gun, I'd say my lever action 30.30...
