    A Jeepers Guide to Lifting Their Rig

    I have a similar ordinance and have fought it with my HOA...and won. I run a business from home and my garage is used for that. My parking garage at work is another matter. I LITERALLY have a half inch of clearance. Stiffer Springs will make it more bouncy for sure but only when unloaded...

    Cross bars

    Super strut is seriously strong stuff. I would worry more about the overall capacity of the factory mounts than I would the super strut.

    A Jeepers Guide to Lifting Their Rig

    Thank you sir. Sometimes the simplest upgrade is the best upgrade. I cannot tell you how many people I have met that have overdone it in the lift department. My buddy has 4+ inches, larger tires, and all of the bolt-ons and cannot follow my line without a flop. I know this because I have...

    Any vegan overlanders out there?

    Winner bro! I'm on it. I love falafel and need to start making better dinners. I've gotten lazy. Thanks for the feedback. Reviews are always a plus. Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

    Winch Damper Video

    I have looked around a bit after coming across this thread and have only found one video that shows a little bit of anything useful. I cannot say for certain that winch line dampers work. All of the interwebs say it is true so it must be... Here is the one video I found:

    Farm Jack

    I probably wouldn't use my jack more that an handful of times so I wasn't about to pay full retail. You can find them on the Facebook marketplace, Craigslist, and local buy/sell/trade pages from time to time. The best deal on a new one is from Smittybilt for around $60. I would hold out until...

    Survey: Favorite Wrench Type?

    I am not sure about a vehicle specific set of tools. I know that most of the sizes on my JKU are 10, 13, 15, and 18 MM. A good set of combination wrenches, sockets, and a couple of sizes of crescent wrenches would go a long way. I would think anything beyond that would mean serious trail damage...

    A Jeepers Guide to Lifting Their Rig

    With the JKU being as popular as it is I thought I would contribute an article to help fellow Jeeper Overlanders along with the lifting of their rigs. The Jeep JK/JKU is the most recent addition to the Jeep Wrangler family. Since it hit the streets a decade ago it has garnered much...

    Nice mount.

    Wrenching on their own rigs?

    Gears are easier than you think. They are just time consuming.

    Wrenching on their own rigs?

    I do all of my own work. I also try to make my own stuff if it's cost effective. If it's cheaper to buy a part, I'll buy it. The only exception to this are the 10 free oil changes on my rig. After that I'll do my own. Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

    Dual Aux Battery Setup

    This is a good thread for me to follow. Both me and my FIL will be doing this. Me on my JKU and him on his Sprinter Van.

    Suspension lift for Wrangler YJ

    In my experience modding a vehicle means more repairs. It's just an acceptable fact of the process. It doesn't mean the mods are (normally)wrong, it just is what it is. One alternative to replacing leaf packs is to have the arch redone and a new height set. A shop by my house used to re-arch...

    What do you think should be my first Mod?

    This is great advice. Go, get stuck, pull yourself out. A monster build does nothing of you can't get yourself out of a situation. Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

    Steering Stabilizer?

    Post pics of the front end. I'd like to see the components so I can get an idea of what may be incorrect.(if anything) The JK is very poor handling when lifts are incomplete. A lift that high will need LCA's, drag link flip kit, longer sway bar links, etc. I don't know what your kit consists...
