Found this install while looking at the 2.8 VM engine. http://www.dieselpowermag.com/tech/general/0811dp_jeep_diesel_engine_swap/index.html Thought I'd share as diesel swaps are always fun to discuss.

ATK 4.7-liter Stroker Motor ANNOUNCEMENT: Following up on Mopar’s announcement last year that it would investigate adding a stroker motor to its portfolio, the parts maker displayed a 4.7-liter engine on the XJ Stroker vehicle at Moab. This is the same motor that won the 4×4 SUV category at the...

I am helping a co-worker and he says he would like to purchase a Disco. Now unfortunately, I know very little about Discos and was wondering what the differences in the Disco 1 and Disco 2 are. Plus, what should he be looking for and what should he be trying to avoid. Any and all help will be...

A coworker has asked me for help in finding accessories for his Freelander so that he can do some mild expeditionary travel. He is primarily looking for suspension lifts and roof racks. Do you guys know of any places he should start looking? It seems there aren't too many places that have...

I have seen it mentioned and mixed in various threads, but never seen the official single thread with the only purpose of posting every tire that is available around the world in 255/85R16. Please post any and all tires that you know come in 255/85R16. We don't need to debate any one tire. A...

Anyone know anything about these tires? They were referenced over on ROF, but there was not much info. Their 285 seems pretty narrow. http://www.federaltire.com/en/html/pdetail.php?DB=suv&pdline=2&ID=28#

What is the cheapest you have seen for the Banks Ram-Air Intake System? Can any of the expo vendors get these? I have seen them for $269 with free shipping, but wanted to see if anyone has found it cheaper?

I just saw this and thought it was a nice simple way to make sure the safety thimble does not hurt your hawse fairlead. I'm pretty sure this is just a hockey puck, but give it a month and daystar will have one.

Ok, I have never broken one or even read a thread of it happening. Maybe no ones wants to talk about it, or it is just a boring subject. Does anyone carry a spare serpentine belt? Any stories of them breaking? What Bush Fixes have you seen when a spare was not available? Anyone have...

I know that just having a shovel is good enough, but I really like how this one has metal much further up from the spade. I currently have the short D handled Home Depot Special. Does anyone have any experience with this shovel? What is everyone else using...

Just got the latest issue of JP and saw the Pelican GMTK. I have to say I really like the packability of my tool rolls, but if I had to keep them dry and dirt free, this would be a mighty nice start. http://www.pelican.com/media/news/product/pr_07_14_08.php More info from a military stand...
