    Question about Line-x

    All I did with mine was to sweep it out. The Line-X guy cleaned, scuffed and shot it. It's been great for 25+ years now.

    ICECO

    I've been using 2 ICECO fridge/freezers for a couple of years now. I haven't had any problems at all with either of them. I'd buy another with no hesitation. The compressors have a 5 year warranty on them not 1 year like most of the other ones.

    water tank? Anyone using a rather large water tank on their DIY built trailer?

    I guess the first question I have is what does a rather large tank mean to you? I have a 22 gal under the frame on my little yellow trailer, a 52 gal in my tent on wheels (camper) and 850 on the trailer I haul water on.

    Rant - Studying not going well for my General

    I tell the people that take my clubs Technician or General classes that in addition to the book go to either QRZ.com or ARRL.com and take the FREE practice tests over and over. Once they're in the 90% range the test is a piece of cake.

    My First FJ40

    If it was mine I'd pull the spark plugs and squirt a couple of ounces of Marvel Mystery Oil in then let it sit a day or so. Next I'd put a socket on the crank bolt and see if it moves a little bit in either direction. Add a couple more ounces of Marvel Mystery Oil and let it sit another day or...

    What should be the first mod

    Sounds like you have a fairly well set up Jeep. I think that your first mod should be a weekend trip. See what you don't have that you want to have and what you have you can do without. Don't get too wrapped up in what you or someone else thinks or says you need. Just get out enjoy the...
