    I just put in an offer for $100. I'll keep you all posted.

    I tried a cheap Android head unit everybody was raving about once... it was a huge piece of shit. Took forever to boot, audio quality was really bad with no real feature set to adjust the eq or anything. Screen was ridiculously unresponsive. Doesn't mean they're all that way, but that was my...

    Tires to buy

    I've been really impressed with the STT Pros on my daily driver. Tire wear has been good and very well behaved. I've been running Baja Boss MT on my TJ this time around but it gets minimal street miles. They've been good so far, just limited experience. I can say they're unbalanced on beadlocks...

    Savvy control arms (no jam nuts?)

    I recently contacted Gerald directly for a bracket and the dude was swift at getting it out the door and across the country to me.

    Can OEM MAP Sensors Measure Positive Pressure / Boost?

    SRT-4 2-bar MAP with my 05 NGC as well. Stock MAP sensor ain't gonna cut it

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Nobody asked, but that's my old stomping ground. There and Wellsville, anyway. Here's a pic I took in 2013 of my current TJ at Southington, first time taking it out to see what kind of shape it was in. Might have still been JeepSkool. Weird people running that place back then. And the same...

    What do you do with your old brake calipers?

    I used Powerstop's core return program, filled out the form on their site and printed it, mailed them in (which was probably going to net me zero dollars after shipping but at least I was recycling) and they emailed me asking what I wanted them to do with them. I said I sent them the core...

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Finished mounting the Savvy engine skid to the UCF belly skid, with the longer bracket to allow clearance of the upper link on the mid arm on the driver side. Still need to finish drilling the two center mounting holes on the tcase skid, broke my last rotabroach bit, more en route. Also, the...

    I need a Buc-ee's sticker.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    I love the finish on that stuff.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    I have some uv protective spray, and I also have big sheets of 3m paint protection film... I hadn't decided yet which one or both. Or if I'm just going to let it weather. It's all laid over a single sheet of 3m vinyl over top a bare aluminum skin from savvy so it's all easily reversible. What'd...

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Dropped the pan to redo the rear main seal. Loosened the two bearing caps nearest the rear cap as well and it slides in a lot easier. Then during reassembly I noticed the Felpro oil pan gasket is ever so slightly rolled on the rear where it fits into the groove on the outside of the rear cap...

    Rock Sliders / Rocker Guards Guide

    That's the kit I have. I don't go cheap out on cutting tools, it's a waste of time. Again, depends on your budget I suppose.

    Rock Sliders / Rocker Guards Guide

    I haven't watched all of BFH's video but I just skimmed to the part where he talks about tools. Just to clear up any confusion, the spotweld cutter is essentially the same thing just with a spring loaded drill bit in the middle and only a 3/8" cutter. BFH's kit has multiple sized cutters and...

    Rock Sliders / Rocker Guards Guide

    This is why I wrote the post, it's partly to share with others and partly because I won't remember how I did it. If you go back to my post here I list what I used. The 3/8" spotweld cutter (aka rotabroach) works well for the bottom because the existing holes are 3/8" on the rail. So it allows...

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    It's a T.A.G. gauge pod... I used to see it listed in multiple places but it might be discontinued or something, I'm only seeing it on Boosted Tech's site now. Kind of pricey for what it is. I'd definitely contact them to make sure they have it before ordering... It fits decently enough. It's...

    Exhaust manifold to downpipe bolts

    I'll revive this old thread again, again, as I'm dropping my exhaust to do the rear main seal for a third time. I've tried multiple different types/styles of swivels and These Sunex swivel sockets make getting to those bolts a much easier task. Even allow enough movement for me to get a...
