  1. Expedition Driven Camper Before and After Pics

    No not change it, get the bad one back up on the rack. Anyone can get it down and they roll just fine. It's the back up part. I tease the guys with the roof spare just as hard for the same reason. And this noise about oh they don't wheel, they just love to camp... well then let's be honest...
  2. Show me your furry Co-Pilots.

    Do loaners count?
  3. Anyone with first hand experience with front receiver mount plow?

    1000 foot dirt path is western/fisher/myers/boss territory.
  4. Anyone with first hand experience with front receiver mount plow?

    Receiver plows need to be used within their bounds, not yours or the trucks. I don't like them for reasons previously discussed, mostly that they are not some beefy duty balls out lets go plowing plows. I prefer to have excess capacity versus excess needs.
  5. Expedition Driven Camper Before and After Pics

    Can we see more of the camper then? Side note, if they love camping why did they build the bratz doll of offroad rigs?
  6. Expedition Driven Camper Before and After Pics

    Right now the only bugging out hes doing is flexing hard at the cheesecake factory. In the immortal words of flava flav, Don't believe the hype! Stop thinking that sema trucks ARE overlanding or expedition trucks. Look at the old camel trophy rovers, early Paris Dakar rigs, those nearly bone...
  7. Expedition Driven Camper Before and After Pics

    So uhhh... where's the after action pics where you realized you don't need half the shit you slapped on it, 40s included. Unless you are driving iceland or greenland in winter, those tires and that stance look silly. And not for nothing but you ever change them, yourself, in the field, just to...
  8. Anyone added hood vents to Sport

    On review that sounded far worse than intended. I am imagining something like the typical louvered panels but with a slide plate to control air flow.
  9. Anyone added hood vents to Sport

    I feel like it involves an hvac register with a slide.
  10. Front License Plate Mounting Ideas... what do you think?

    Self drilling, self tapping, roberts drive screws. My fairlead and soon to be hawse carrier carries my beach plates. But... they all my end up on a roof rack soon anyhow. Zipties age and can fail, replacing plates is such a chore.
  11. Front License Plate Mounting Ideas... what do you think?

    When I still had my roller fairlead I used the quadratec clip on plate mount. Now that I have a hawse, I am thinking of this type https://www.quadratec.com/products/hawse-fairlead-license-plate-mounting-bracket-11238.07
  12. It's cold again. Guess who's back? Old St. Death Wobble. (edit-Not true DW, just a big shimmy)

    @Gvsukids I'm having trouble reading the tone. I mean with enough swazall you could put 42s on a stock sport, right? Does a 1" leveling kit do it? No. Does a 1" leveling kit perturbate the system, yes, but below tolerances. The solution to death wobble is to return the mechanical linkages...
  13. It's cold again. Guess who's back? Old St. Death Wobble. (edit-Not true DW, just a big shimmy)

    In crude terms death wobble is hysterical bump steer compounded by harmonic resonance. At stock ride height with stock wheels and tires, your tie rod (steering box to knuckle) and drag link (knuckle to knuckle) are relatively in plane, not perfectly parallel but close enough. Your track bar...
  14. It's cold again. Guess who's back? Old St. Death Wobble. (edit-Not true DW, just a big shimmy)

    I had thundersnow for a few minutes last night in Rankin with temps cruising just above freezing and I still climbed down tower in just a t-shirt. SoCal "cold" is always amusing. Last I was in LA they were wearing parkas with hoods in the 50's and I was rocking shorts, have flown out of teens...
  15. Tow Hooks...What are They For?

    The longer you make that A shape, the less lateral force you will generate. Now, how much force is needed to bend up your frame members is a topic for the engineers but sufficed to say the less effort you waste there means more e energy for winching you out. If you can, however, try to use...
  16. Tow Hooks...What are They For?

    And since I'm still up at this ungodly hour (working 5 to 5 on the over with 2 hours of driving there and back, 600 feet of tower climbing with 8 hours of grinding and 2 hours of cleaning with some over the hub on the devils jungle gym, sun = scary) To recap a recap, most vehicle's tow points...
  17. Fake trim levels?

    So my jkur the hood stickers are covered over, I have the Willys 4 Wheel Drive sticker on the back, Sahara moulded mud flaps, my red rubi shocks are long gone and I have the other side Hard Rock tow hook and stock rubi wheels in the garage. My rubi came through low options; tock hood, plastic...
  18. Discount Tire to aquire Tire Rack

    To be fair we are all being pessimistic about it. They may merge and continue operations as separate but allied entities, leveraging their purchasing power and expanding the places you can have do the install.
  19. Discount Tire to aquire Tire Rack

    Interesting but not necessarily the best for the consumer price wise. Yes I can see massive gains on the vendor side but I also see redundancy layoffs and overall reductions on manpower needs.
  20. Fake trim levels?

    Its the same vibe as why I have a classic AMC Jeep tricolor badge on my JK in the CJ location. I remember the old gods.
