The tiny metal tab pressed out on the clip. Like in the Picture Lunentucker posted. Just that little tab.

Well, if nothing else now I feel better that I wasn't the only person ever since the beginning of time who bought the Mopar version of the wind deflector. ? And I did email the folks I bought it from. Hopefully they can help. But the 3M tape solution is tempting.

It's one of the reasons I bought the deflector; that it was mounted by screws. I figured that would be better. Why, I'm not sure but I grew up in the days that tape was crappy. Maybe I had no faith in tape due to the 1970s tape technology being insufficient. But you did give me an idea...

I'll look at that but the part is already attached to the truck. The tab broke as I was starting the screw on it (not even tightening it). And I already threw the shipping boxes out. They are in the dumpster outside and I'm not dragging them back in. ? If worse comes to worse I'll figure...

So because I have some time off for Christmas I decided to install my Mopar hood air deflector. Part number 82215367AB. When I went to tighten the screw on the right side the clip that is put in the hole to hold the attachment point broke. The little tiny tab broke off. I figured I can't be...

Not a bad choice and I still could use those in the front part of the bed for my tool boxes or even the rear part of the bed when I get some water containers to carry. Do you think they are sturdy enough to keep a 5 or 10 gallon Igloo sports water container from shifting around?

Preliminary finish on my bed partition project. I could still add a few small items but I want things to be easy to reach and not interfering with each other.

Well, I said I'd be back with up dates. There is still some room for some small items but the big items are about all I can fit. Shovel Fire Axe 3/4 inch drive breaker bar 13 mm ratcheting wrench The 13 mm wrench is important because it is what I would use to connect the positive lead from my...

I think this is true if you rock crawl or if you go up steep slopes. I don't do the first and I rarely do the second. Most of my getting stuck is sand, gravel, snow or mud. Once you are spinning the tires I'm not sure that more torque is the answer. Better applied torque might be. Better...

If your goal is to try and tackle tough obstacles and generally do 4 wheel drivey stuff then the lockers sound like the way to go. Personally I get attached to vehicles and if that time comes I'd just add the axles with lockers to my truck. I just couldn't trade it for another JT. Your truck is...

Added to my sticker collection. Also went ahead and put an edge on the board that I'm going to mount to the tailgate so I can mount some tools there within easy reach.

American Adventure Labs overhead molle ADJ OSLIM 1.5" truss mounts And I know you were against Maglites but there is one 2 D Cell Maglite and one 5 D Cell Maglite both LED, both with window breaker caps and both with crenelated lens surrounds. One for me and one for my passenger.

You are overthinking this. Go out and 4 wheel until you get stuck. Figure out why you got stuck. Fix whatever it was that got you stuck. You'll probably surprise yourself at how seldom it is you get stuck and/or how things like traction boards are an easy way to get unstuck.

And just to show I wasn't just screwing around with stickers I also did the initial rough mount of my axe. I didn't want to use Quick Fists but the axe handle is so oddly shaped that it does not lend itself to normal circular clamps. But because the axe head weighs so much I'm going to...

I've never had a sticker on my vehicles. Not for any particular reason, rather I've just never seen a sticker that would really convey what I wanted it to convey. But then I saw this sticker. And I thought, dang, that's really my attitude when I'm exploring in my Jeep. So after 40 years of...

I went with a Sherpa 12,000 #. There was three things that made me go for the Sherpa. I'm guessing for most folks those three things are not worth the extra $500 to $600 dollars but it was to me. 1. Billet cut gears instead of sintered gears. 2. The clutch works in the gearbox instead of...

Mine has had it for a while. I figure grinding, clashing, knocking, screeching sounds are bad. Hissing sounds, meh. Everything works anyways.

Cut and fit the plywood I'm going to use to make a mounting board for my tailgate. It was too cold to apply the headliner material (too cold for the glue) Maybe next weekend.

Always 20 mpg. But I'm a comically gentle driver. Monty Python could do a skit on my driving habits. After 20,000 miles I could probably count on one hand the times on road that I've had the gas pedal down more than 1/2 way.

Got the shovel mounted.
