    My first CO snow wheeling!

    Anytime we get 6 plus, we try to go SnoMoTrucking, which constists of blasting down smooth dirt roads much faster than you normally whould. My SWB jeep loves to carve in powder:)

    BFG a/t lifespan

    I'm on my forth set of ATs, I get 50-60K miles from them. The performance falls off before they are completely shot. In PA, we have to have 1/8 of tread, but they don't do well that worn.

    Today...Oh so bittersweet!

    Nice :) I still like to see beauty marks, shiny, perfect rigs don't do it for me. That rub gives it character :) Nice scenery, where were you?

    Tasty Meals without Refrigeration

    I searched briefly and couldn't find any thing on this topic... I spent 4 days camping semi remotely this summer in 80-90F heat with high humidity. On day one I realized that my cooler was lame and I would need to buy ice every day which turned out to be a major hassle. The obvious solution...

    Ford 9 inch Swap

    If you are staying SUA you can pretty cheaply put in front and rear waggy dana44s. Around me I can find set for ~$200. You can find 3.31s pretty easy which would give your 258 a little more snap, 4.10s are out there but harder to find. Mine are holding up great to ritualistic beatings on 36s...

    super duty front hubs?

    Thanks, then i imagine they won't be too hard to take out. I'm pretty much sure now that it's the u joint. I don't want to replace anything with after market yet. That is a slippery slope and I can only afford one modified POS at a time:) This truck has auto locking hubs that can also be...

    super duty front hubs?

    I have an 04 f250. I think I have a ujoint going, it makes a light clunking sound in slow tight turns. I haven't dug into these hubs yet, does anyone have or know where I can find an exploded diagram? Also are any specialized tools needed?

    roof racks for softtops

    How does the soft top factor into the design? I'm picturing a roof rack for a wrangler to be the same whether it's a hard or soft top. Post up your design if you can, I'd really like to see it. I put a rack inside the back of mine which gets me by, but I'm also considering a home made roof...

    The S T I N K !!!!!!!

    My sister keeps a chest freezer in the basement, it got accidently unplugged...It was full of venison. It turned itself into a big stew kettle. I've never smelled any thing like that before. I bet it beat most of the katrina fridges hands down. I'd try putting an open box of baking soda in...
