About the 600 850 and 940 watt fan. No mater what fan you use the real problem is to little to late. RPM Extreme JL fan controller solve this problem. I am running the controller on both my jeeps and it is a game changer. No more 235/240 temps and the oil temp is also about 25 degrees cooler...

Modified Rugged Ridge. I did not like the snorkel running up the window Chanel blocking my view. I made an adapter to sit on top of the original Rugged Ridge piece. It doesn't block my view at all.

Air tag. Conceal an air tag in something you don't care about that they would take. You may be able to track there location and provide it to the police. It wouldn't make much difference in my area as the cops have bigger fish to fry put it may help.

I just had an issue with my tazer. For many weeks now I was getting a bunch of codes that did not make any scene. All communication codes pointing to the gate way of witch the tazer is the gate way. I suspected the tazer was the problem because over the 4 years I had the tazer in the jeep I had...

YEP. That's only because I am pushing 70 years old and have lived in the same house for 40 years. All my friends and other around me have moved out of state. The chiefs of police and friend of mine retired early and moved to Tennessee. He told me he will keep $40k in his pocket each year. He...

First thing get rid of the balancing beads. Take your jeep to a competent shop like a 4x4 shop that balances large tires all the time. As recommended by my 4x4 shop and Metalcloak set your toe at 0 to 1/16 out. This can help with shimmy or what you think is unbalanced tire. It eliminated 98%...
