I'm still working on that problem. Some people think it is noise n the power system from the LED driver, others think it is broadcasting emitting EFI and being picked up by the radio antennas. I'm going to need to do some testing to see if I can isolate the power on the radio or if the lights...

I generally don't want lights there at all, they tend to cause a lot of glare on the hood, making it hard to see. Also, make sure your lights are designed to not cause interference with CBs and other radios. Right now I'm struggling with horrible static cause by my Aurora lights.

Typically groundng to the chassis causes the interference. Ferrite chokes were the first thing I tried and they had no effect, which is why I think the lights have EMI emissions and are not causing power "noise" in the vehicle.

These were not cheap lights at $90 per cube and $100 for two used with the "friend discount". That is one of the reasons I'm very annoyed at Aurora. They advertise as meeting or exceeding military specifications, but my brother was a signal officer in the infantry and there is no way this much...

Unfortunately automotive parts like this are not tested by the FCC. It is probably because it is only fairly recently with LED drivers and HID ballasts from cheap manufacturers that signal interference has been an issue. Halogen lights don't have this problem. Looking online for "LED radio...

I have a single set of Aurora LED light pods and they cause massive electromagnetic interference with my CB and ham radios. Apparently the manufacturer put a bunch of effort into the case and none into the LED driver. There is no way to shield the radios from this interference since it is...

Pre trip inspection. Have your mechanic look over the rig and ensure it is in tip top shape. Estimate your mileage and make sure you won't be due for service mid-trip. Bring a spare air filter and some extra oil, just in case.

Only after sticking tennis balls and foam rubber on all those pointy bits, otherwise you will have Kid Kabobs.

I'm in the Salt Lake area, maybe we can do a trail together some time. There are several of us around in a variety of rigs.

You need a 0000 emblem with a cloud of steam coming out of the front.

Unfortunately, these two things are inversely related.

I have had a set of neoprene Cover King covers on the back seat for several years. I just replaced the Nissan OEM accessory covers up front with Cover King ballistic covers with molle back panels. They have excellent coverage and a good system for keeping the covers where they belong. The fit...

Nah, it just means you need to adjust the beam pattern.

I've had mine a couple years now. The clips are doing fine and the mesh is intact. I see a lot of people load down the mesh with tools and other heavy stuff, that just isn't what it is made to do. I just keep a few spare plastic bin liners in my mesh pockets.

I do the same thing with the Trasharoo. Heavy duty yard waste trash bags are perfect for keeping the 'roo clean. Plus it is easy to lift the bag out to empty when you find a dumpster. Spare bags store neatly in the mesh pouches or zipper flap pocket.

Did you put the YJ in a closed burlap sack with a rock first?

I recommend the tan color trasharoo, I found it fades less than the black (not sure about the OD Green)

Trasharoo is the way to go. They are not that expensive and they are built to last. Remember, you get what you pay for. Also, when I contacted Trasharoo about getting a discount to purchase two bags for the Canyonlands Maze District rangers, they refused to hear me out. Instead, they just...

I would start with tires and see what you actually need after that. The direction of your building based on your use. Personally, I would do a lift to keep the back end from bottoming out. I went with PRG, it my brother is happy with his Old Man Emu kit.

The price on those is a lot more affordable than I would have guessed from the appearance.
