Defender 130 Toyota got there first, then Land Rover. Budget constraints = use what you got, then add a bed.

I was going to say, boric acid is the best medicine. RELATIVELY low toxicity, and heck it makes a good bath for itchy dogs, too.

Don't know what the former is, and I can't do business with the latter, I'll see if Big 5 has them - just don't recollect ever seeing pucks. Thank you!

Where do people live that hockey pucks are widely available? I would have to hit Amazon up to find some!

Wow, that's a great look! Are the Method's lighter than the factory alloys? They look great with the grey. Saw a Mojave with 38's behind me coming out of the Farmer's market this AM (either that or a Mojave hood), kinda wondered at changing out the suspension to run bigger tires. Definitely had...

And the likely reason no one continued that thread is the rule about feeding trolls......

That makes no sense to think an AT would be good in mud compared to an MT - that's why we have MT's. I ran AT's and MT's on my Ranger and H2 for decades, depending on time of year and terrain. I still have two sets of tires for my YJ, the Falken AT's are very nice on the road and in snow...

I guess I was lucky to have bought the Rock Hard FAD skid, that must have been a kink in your time spent!

We have a tradition of putting a sharpie to the dings with a date and location. Speaking for a friend, some of us have repeated reminders of a particularly hairy snow run trail we like to visit every year. Didn't go this year, so no JTR scars. I dig your memorabilia!

https://smile.amazon.com/Smittybilt-2781-5-65-Universal-Compressor/dp/B004K25GMG/ https://www.speedflate.com/shop/p/speedflate-4x I use this combination off-road, and I use the SpeedFlate to get back to 33-34 PSI every time I get service at the Jeep dealer. A $70 Viair compared to that, and no...

Across several different 4x4's, I kept a set of muds for Summer and a set of AT's for the rest of the year. It's a little spendy up front, but it let us get more out of our vehicles. I still have a set of KM2's for my little Jeep, and that scratches my itch to do stupid things in the Summer, but...

MT's wear MUCH faster than AT's, so you're not seeing anything unexpected. The significantly higher rolling resistance with MT's is a dead giveaway the wear is different to AT's or street tires. 25-30K on a set of muds is good tread life, in my book.

I have been assured by many posts here that the lockers on the Rubicon are unnecessary and just for show. You have been warned!

I've gotten several sets of tires from Walmart, never did take a vehicle to them, just dropped off the wheels. Didn't realize they were that sticky about things!

You should see the Tow Police on Reddit, you can almost see the spittle on the screen. FOR US, the empty weight for your selected trailer seems like pushing it. Our 24' travel trailer does have a max gross of 7,000 but the empty weight was 4400 lb before we renovated (my wife did) to a two...

That's the one benefit to the Spiderwebshade on my YJ, it won't require removal to put the hardtop back on in Nov, despite being one piece. I would point out it rained the entire week of Christmas in PHX in 2019 - I've still never been there on a normal 115 deg day.

The JTops is in a category of its own due to materials and design. It's not perfect and it is not a solid top level of protection, but it makes a HUGE comfort difference vs being truly open. My wife was a Phoenician for 29 years, it's not as hot here but DANG close, and she likes it. Wind is...

Eh, I got used to it. Rather be smaller outside, I'll put up with the consequences inside. Still more comfortable than my wife's Honda.

I almost bought a TJ in '97, had the build sheet I wanted to order all printed out. Walked in and was told up front that what they had on the lot was what there was, tough shit. That Jeep dealership no longer exists.

You can scrape them off in the brush, the replacements I got are deeper and have more ridges though.
