The @813 Fabrication & Design basket’s molle squares fit Grey Man Tactical’s baking plates. I added some plastic to cover adjacent holes making it impossible to get a tool into the basket to unscrew the butt cup and Santa Cruz lock. The seats lock to the basket, so you’d have to use serious...
Take a look at my solution above. I added a shroud so even with the doors open you can’t see it. Passengers feet still fit in the rear footwells along with stuff with the rifle there. My dog usually gets the whole back seat in a hammock along with some bags if I’m camping but I don’t need to...

This was my solution. It was expensive, but it’s “secure” and discrete. It will hold a single rifle or shotgun. I’m not sure about tactical or not. To me...
Some bed-as-a-trunk pictures. This should make holiday shopping easier. I hate keeping these kinds of storage things on the back seat and now I can actually get to them in the bed.
Theres nothing unreasonable about charging labor to remove aftermarket stuff or mods. It’s unreasonable to expect them to do free work because we added stuff. It’s a business.
The only question is how reasonable is their estimate and we’re missing some info here. What’s their labor rate? You...

With the the HDPE tailgate cover, the minimum height of the surface of a fridge slide made on a wood frame is around around 1 1/2 inches. Steel would be lower but not much. The ARB Classic II 63 barely fits now height wise and it’s one the few decent size fridges that fits under a tonneau cover...
I originally wanted to create or buy at table top that attaches to the tailgate to give me more work space when camping, tailgating, fishing, etc. I wasn’t happy with any of the designs I came up with. All of them relied on support under the table. The solution is a slider system. However, I...
Coil packs making more HP, ? “my truck needs more electricity!!” I rest my case about the aftermarket. Yeah, RIPP makes crapp. At least the folks here on this forum aren’t dealing with the 2013 Gen 2 Pentafail. I didn’t have the luxury of thinking about power upgrades. I was too busy taking my...
There’s also a wee little Cummins crate diesel. That’s my unserious backup plan if the eco-diesel bites the dust. But I wouldn’t convert from gas to diesel. That sounds like a nightmare. You’d be better off scouring the Earth for a totaled eco-diesel And taking all its parts.
Honestly, there’s no real good option. The 392 is insultingly expensive considering the price of the same upgrade in a Ram. The crate engine swaps from AMW, et al, are crazy expensive. I almost pulled the trigger on a AEV Hemi conversion back in 04’ but it was Dave Harriton, the owner of AEV...
You didn’t read my post at all. I said:
“The only way to really get more power out of an engine is to increase the movement of air and fuel through the system via displacement or charging”
“Charging”, as in supercharging or turbocharging, I.e, moving more air. You listed a bunch of companies...
All of these can be caused by not changing your tire diameter in the ECU. Some lifts like AEV come with tool to do this. Otherwise you can use a Tazer or other tool as folks have stated. You really need to make sure the tires size is properly represented. If you don’t know, then you need to...
My only slight disagreement if it’s even that, is that the 392 package, even if you eliminate the bigger tires, etc., is still $20k more than the 3.6. The same upgrade on the Ram costs $3k. That feels like a slap in the face to Jeep people. Like corporate said “hey let’s pump the Jeep morons for...
I don’t think it’s hyperbolic or incendiary to say people bolt lots of trash to their vehicles. There’s a bunch of videos on YouTube of people putting their vehicle on a dyno after doing a cat back and seeing, 1-5 hp gains. You can see the cognitive dissonance as they declare triumphantly, that...
Looks like your HR department hired the same consultants as mine to sell us bottled common sense. Now I’ve got to create an entirely new set of bullshit yearly goals, that I’ll never look at again until my review when they give me the “merit increase” they’d already decided to give me before the...
Modifying engines is mostly dumb. The world is full of people driving around with expensive bits of trash bolted to their powertrain convinced that they’re making more power or MPGs. Little metal windmills, oiled filters, cat-back exhaust systems, etc. Then there’s a group that digs deeper and...
Cloth is soft
You don’t stick when it’s hot
But cloth holds dirt
Easy to clean it’s not
I got the leather
really it’s just vinyl.
It’s more expensive
But the benefits are binal
First, it looks good
Then it’s easy to clean
Vacuuming sand from cloth
Makes Wolfy quiet mean
Carpet in the Jeep...
