Agreed! I’ve made dozens of things with mine, including: Hi-lift mount Under seat air compressor mount Under seat radio mount Mounts for drawer glides for cargo shelf Wheel well mounts for ammo cans Third brake light mount Solar panel brackets Trailer tail light brackets If you haven’t...

Awesome! Thanks for the review. I’m seriously considering one, fortunately, my wife will probably push me back 1-3 years and let them work the bugs out. It is nice to have someone looking out sometimes!

I’m probably okay with continuing to not categorize “chuck” as “steak” although we can probably have a grand old technical debate about that one too.

I’ve been extremely interested in the 4xe, so I’m paying close attention to the rollout. I don’t really believe the 49 mpge claim. I do however see that the math sort of works, if one applies a dose of sales puffery and a few government charms and crystals. Jeep initially claimed 25 miles in...

I think @Pappy has a decent idea here. Any local hydraulic or hose shop should be able to crimp new ferrules on a hose. In addition, most large propane suppliers will make hoses too. There is a local Parker store that can probably make something, but they are proud of it. I’ve seen that...

I see these have hit dealer lots. Anyone take delivery yet? I’m a little disappointed that the first ones out the gate have a bunch of optioned crap that I would never want, but I’ll probably go test drive one anyway!

I like that idea but might go one further and suggest that the plug be made by pouring plaster into the existing unit.

I did an outfitted trip on the Green through Stillwater Canyon a few years ago. It was really awesome in some ways, and not in every way, but I’m not much of a boat guy. In my estimation, you would have an extremely difficult to maybe impossible time paddling upstream. It was Memorial Day...

I’ve been using the camp chef one you pictured with good results. I wish it was about 12” longer for better bottle placement, but it works nicely.

If they are spinning and not coming out, the nut is spinning on the other side. If they won’t spin and are stripping the heads or breaking, the threads are galled and seized. Either way, grind them off.

Grind the heads off with a flap disc and forget about them? odds are high that those are stainless and the threads are probably galled like crazy. unless you need to reuse the holes I would give up and grind them off, but they can be drilled out with patience and a sharp bit. We do it all the...

I did it. Let’s be honest, aesthetics plays a role, I think the trailer looks better when it matches the Jeep, but the ability to rotate relatively unmolested tires onto the Jeep in case of failure plays a role too. I’ve never needed to do it, and in reality, over 25 years driving off road...

It makes me wonder if there is a huge repository of factory take off grilles out there somewhere?

I would personally stick with a bracket that could bolt into a captured nut in the bed of the truck. If you set it up correctly, you could bolt it down with probably 4 bolts And your removal time could be give or take 5 min. one note on the accurides, some of the locking models require...

When I was in Boy Scouts we used to bury cases of soda to last through summer camp with no refrigeration and still probably knocked 30-40 degrees off them.

I definitely understand your position with respect to clubs and wheelin, I waffle back and forth on club runs here too, but consider: Going 4 wheeling with a club is sort of like deep immersion practice for what you are trying to learn. You won’t have as much exposure to different sorts of...

That was pretty much my point about buying large cuts. You can usually find tenderloin end cuts for about $5-6 per lb here, compared to $22-25 filet mignon, but it is a little smaller and not as pretty. Makes great medallions, etc... The fridge is a great idea, I use mine constantly, even...

You haven’t paid attention to work in 3rd world countries? Two things you should never do naked... frying bacon and welding! It doesn’t make for good Instagram video.

It might be the industrial safety guy in me but I was cringing every time I saw her hair drift toward the drill... or was I secretly hoping...???

Have you considered looking for a club to join? Just be careful, sometimes the guy egging you on is just a sadist that wants to see other people break expensive stuff!
