I grabbed a deal from an individual on Facebook. I got an ARB and gears for my jeep. I am fabricating up a full width Dana 44 to replace my current narrow Dana 44 with a Detroit Locker. At the same time, I am also adding rear disc brakes with a parking brake that does not use those funky...

You do realize 150 watts is illegal, don't you?

I won a GG150 in a raffle at work. It is great. Not great enough for me to pay $300+ for , but hey...it was free to me.

I built my Jeep 4.0L into a 4.7L stroker 260K miles ago. Being a long time performance engine builder, I match everything and worked on tweaking the computer. I get 21mpg on the freeway at speed in Colorado @ 5000ft. It will pass the 2021 emissions standard.

I kept a strict tally on building mine. I fabricated most everything except the doors. I still spent around $4000.

In the last year the price of gas went from $2.00 to $3.75 a gallon. My commute fuel bill is $70 a week now.

Torquerville Falls?

A trick to keep the kerf clean is to take a stick of paraffin and cut through it first to lube up the blade. I have a counter rotating double blade saw that I use. It plunges great and never grabs or kicks back.

I can vouch for the NOCO GB150. I have had one for several years and it holds a charge pretty well and does a surprisingly good job. Not cheap....I won mine in a raffle.

I've been doing what you call overlanding for over 55 years. My current Jeep is 37 years old and I have had it for almost 25 years. I don't get out as much as I used to because of work but I still try every chance I get. I find I do a lot more overnighters or long day trips these days. I...

As long as you aren't running a huge light bar, 10 gauge should be great.

Hello from Prescott

That would be fun in a Colorado windy day.

The only problem with electric is if you run out of power, it is hard to get someone to go get a can of electrons.

Bacon, Spam, Eggs, Pork Chops.

I have done dozens of each over the years with NAXJA. Personally I just do the H&T in the car. I cut the shaft with an abrasive wheel clean it up flat, mark , drill, and tap the hole and presto you are done. Been running a H&T for over 500k miles.

Where in NorCo are you located. My home is in Loveland. I am currently working out of state in Arizona but make it home for a week at a time every month or so. I would like to see what you are doing.

I have used the zinc rod before with fairly good luck but a rack is subjected to a lot of bending and twisting. Even with TIG, the best welding, it is prone to crack over time. If you do it, make gussets for all the stress points. Practice a ton before actually working on the welds for the...

They don't close down access do they?

I work outside Phoenix and routinely make the trip home to Northern Colorado. When do you need it? We might be able to work something out to just have me pull it back on one of my trips. I only have about 100k miles of pulling a trailer under my belt. My rig is fully equipped with trailer...
