Great point and I would stop where you are and start looking for the second vehicle. You can find a decently modded vehicle with lockers front and rear for a decent price. Prices on vehicles are coming down.

Something to consider on the locker idea. If you have gearing at 3.73 you may want to change gears and add a locker or two. Change out the front gear means you have to change the rear, both front and rear have to match. The carrier break is typically 4.10, if you decide to get larger tires...

Avid wheeler with 10 years experience instructing off-road. - You can safely wheel alone. Just be cautious and think twice before attempting obstacles you are not sure of. In your situation a winch would be a great item to have. With it comes familiarization and safety. You will also...

The problem with a computer driven car is that the computer cannot adapt to every different type of personal driving habit (human nature). If 100% of vehicles were computer driven it would not be an issue. But not everyone wants a 100% computer driven car. I got rid of my 2018 Toyota 4Runner...

Man... I just drove from PA to NM and back. OK has signs saying it is a "State Law, Drive in Right Lane Unless Passing". Texas people move over if you are behind them. Traffic flows smoothly. Other states people cruising in the left lane with a long line of vehicles behind them. They are...

Cash is not as great as people think. Financing is where they make money, points on the interest rate. I make the best deal possible without bringing up outside financing or cash. Once the numbers are what they are I then bring in outside financing or cash. Cash is equal to a cashiers...

Nice JT. You can always drop the price, but it is almost impossible to raise the price. So list high and see what happens. A couple of things you are up against, the first is the current interest rate. Rates are 6% - 7% which reduces buying power. Next is Christmas, most people hold off...

I agree with you on the closed system, less chance of failure. As someone else mentioned, side loading is not good for the open hooks. Where I disagree, only minimal, is the stored energy. The rope has the same amount of energy or tension as a chain or wire rope during a pull. The...

It seems this question comes up often. Do you need a Rubicon/Max Tow/Mojave/Willys... Who cares? If you want it- get it. Will you use it? That depends on what you do when you get it. You have a F-150 Lightening, did you go to the track and use it? Or maybe use it on the street to its...

Another option, buy a second jeep instead of axles. You can pick up a decently modded TJ in good shape for the $20K many people mention. Building your own set of D60's is not difficult. You do need some specific tooling or a good friend that has what is needed. You can spend evenings and...

It is not about breaking the franchise model, it is about stopping the dealership excessive markups.

I like it, about time for a nice tight bumper vs the big train sized bumpers. My only "issue" would be the downward tilt on the top of the bumper. I like it, but if wet or muddy that would be a pain to step on to. Do you have any pics of the backside and underneat and mounting points? I...

I have had the BAK Revolver X4s for 1 1/2 years. A little feedback. - It is a great cover. - There are pinch points when rolling the cover back into position, watch your fingers. - During winter I have had snow and ice get stuck on the top. It won't come off, you can not use it at that...

Synthetic has it's downfalls. Higher cost and must replace every so often, depends on how you take care of it. It can bite into self while under heavy loads, getting it unwound can be difficult. Need a quality rope, otherwise you will replace it more often If it gets wet, you should unwind it...

Went with a portable unit that I pieced together. One that I can use or another wheeler can use if needed. Very useful for me and others. Was able to reseat a bead on a 38" tire and fill with no issue.

That turned out pretty nice. Good to see something different.

I like the flat steel part, but not the tubing part. Next bumper build....

I have been to Rausch Creek, the two-vehicle deal is a safety issue. As far as the trails, they have mild and up. I would recommend taking a look at AOAA, they have more trails as it is a larger area. AOAA is just north of Rausch Creek. https://www.aoaatrails.com/

Wow.....
