Honestly not sure if that's sarcasm or not. You asked for feedback! I really hope your business kicks off to a great start! Your website looked clean. FYI though it doesn't pull up when googling your name, I only found it through your facebook page. Not sure if that's intentional because...

I get it dude. Honestly, your reasons for that are just as valid as his are. I'm sure you would also have made every effort to be responsible. But this wasn't you, and you weren't there. You know, the whole "don't judge a man till you've walked a mile in his shoes" thing. I think that would...

Lord...it would seem after Michael posted up and acknowledged it, and defended @A-Aron that this would have died there. @Todd & Meg @JungleSkunk if this is burning your britches so much why don't you offer to help @A-Aron get it yourself! I totally agree, keeping trails clean and open is...

Honestly i haven't been in a while. We got sick a lot over the fall and winter, and we're still getting over it. Its cool though, if you're looking to meet car people in SA, its a good way to do that. Like i said in the other posts though, its more of a show truck/flashy mall crawler scene...

This is why I’ve gone the route of dual rear HD recovery points. I don’t have to rely on my hitch for anything, and I’ve got a short tow strap that can be used for a bridle harness between the two. I really think I may end up going with a shackle hitch too just because. Can’t have too much...

While I definitely agree that quality of steel will change if or when a tow ball fails, that’s not really the point of the video. Big point is that the tow ball is NOT designed for shock load use (recovery) and can/will fail if abused. The worst part is that failure will produce a lethal...

Sounds like you have a good plan....not as fun as buying something immediately, but paying off debt first is always a good priority. I totally agree with you on the snowball effect with mods. It can happen, especially if they are being done on top of parts with 100K plus miles on them, or...

I’ve been seriously playing with the idea of just starting to do my own alignment. Really tired of alignments that are “in spec” that don’t track straight. And having techs explain limitations of my vehicles setup to me that I know aren’t correct. How hard is it really? I know how to set toe...

I'm going to offer an alternative perspective. Keep your existing truck, esp if its paid off, and put some of those monthly payments you'd have to make on a new vehicle into upgrading/rebuilding your truck. If you are still making payments on your existing truck, that is a bit less...

Good video on this for anybody who's not currently aware. Full disclosure, I grew up using equipment and towing all sorts of things out of the woods or being stuck, ALL with a tow ball. I'd consider myself as close to a farm boy as a city-grown boy could be. Things like towing, using heavy...

Yes. Most can be turned. Just have to turn around the rails mounted to the bottom. Most people mount them to the side because of hatch style rear doors, I know for the 4runner, it opens way higher than the bottom of a deployed RTT. But I’ve seen jeeps and vehicles with barn door style rests...

Literally the opposite response of what you can expect at any other internet forum out there. This is what makes OB so different. Love it! The normal response would be some version of "go search before posting, and don't annoy us. #hateallnoobs". This is so much better!

https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=inclinometer+4x4&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Ainclinometer+4x4 lots of generic options out there...

This has been attempted a few times over the past year in San Antonio....The Tycoon Flats location seems to have stopped being a thing? I honestly think the thing that's missing right now is not desire from individuals, its really an individual who's willing to act in an ambassador/activator...

Love the coozie idea. I don’t keep a ton of bungees in the rig but the few I have are very messy. https://www.instructables.com/id/Tie-Down-Strap-Storage/ I found this method for ratchet straps the other day and it has revolutionized my ratchet strap storage. Now I need to get some coozies...

If I had 40 grand, I'd probably spend about 15-20K on a somewhat used, but still newish rig (prob a Toyota landcruiser or Tundra). I'd shoot for less than 10 years old, less than 100K on it. I know, my standards for "new" are probably pretty low. But honestly, I like the rigs from that year...

Also speaking from experience, you don’t want the first time you use that gear to be because you HAD to use it. Take it out, set it up, pull a vehicle, set up the rigging, get it a tiny bit dirty. You want to be familiar with your equipment before you need it. Often I find in the practice...

I would bet that even if you hadn't stopped, you would NOT have fallen into the category of the people that have been abusing and damaging things. I think the big problem is not people going into the national parks through non-closed access points. Based on what I've heard, some of the...

Same here. except I never use high pressure in my engine bay. I read somewhere it was bad, and I just figure with all of the electrical connections its better to avoid it. Spray down with simple green and soak, if there's any areas with a ton of gunk, i'll use a heavier degreaser. Scrub...

Those look great. Really nice job!
