Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
And I agree to a point.. without boxing in and essentially making a frame on a XJ they aren't really durable, I know first hand. But, for what I do it works great. I don't off road much at all, maybe twice a year. Mostly camping and dirt/gravel roads, so the XJ platform works great for me. It...
Lol, since I drive an XJ that is what is on there! It is kinda a PITA to photshop a vehicle and remove the background to get it to where it can be put into a design.
I run Mobil 1 or Mopar filters and use Rotella T 10w30 diesel oil. The diesel oils still have the zinc and phosphorus the flat tappet design engine needs, modern oils/gas engine oils do not have the additives. I did a TON of research on what oil to use and after many, many articles it looked...

Yeah, I don't like the way the ones that bolt to a single side look.. Looks like to much stress on the Unibody for one area. That will spread around the force and work better IMO.
@Michael and I spoke awhile back about this, he has given it some thought but wants to find a higher quality version of some sort. Trasharoo, I do own one but from what I have read they fade very fast and don't seem to handle the abuse of what some other comparable brands.
OK, so not to long ago I sent out a BUNCH of free Overland Indiana decals, I have since done a redesign of the logo. I want to know opinions on the new design. Also, If you have a original decal I will send you the new version for free, unless you wanna keep the Gen 1 for collectors value...
