Air compressor (under passenger seat), VHF/UHF radio, front light bar, ditch spot lights too early for BF deals

With my front shocks that are 28.4” extended, swaybar disconnected, no limit strap - the stock front driveshaft is not in any danger. Works fine, doesn’t bind on the edge of the collar, there’s even a bit of room left. True both when flexed hard up on front passenger with front driver in the...

Interesting. I’m going to carefully study those photos to see how sturdy the rear corners look. My first impression (on a phone) is that you’d want to keep the steel Rubicon corner sliders. Which obviously wouldn’t be ideal for potential overall weight savings. Same could be said for the heavy...

The Warn 62132 power interrupt kit appears to be an Ametek SAS-4214. Warn (as typical for them) doesn't commit to any ratings at all in their docs. If you follow the datasheet and application guide the 4214 is only rated for 100A continuous, but 600A intermittent (which they define as "25%...

One answer for some of us: enclosed camper over the bed means quite a few actions to get to the bed. Probably similar for tonneaus. And why have it outside in the rain, snow, dust, etc if it doesn't need to be. Mounted to the driver's seat means I can just grab it on the way out of the truck...

Topping this thread, thanks for sharing the template shape @Rockabillyroy. I had the same issue with the RH skids interfering with the Falcon 3.3 plastic roost guards. All the plastic at the bottom looks fairly structural on the Falcons, so I didn't want to trim anything there. I have access...

Hm, now I'm confused. Which Mopar rails are we comparing to here? These OEM low-profiles that come on the Rubicon and Mojave? https://store.mopar.com/oem-parts/mopar-rock-rails-82215605ab Or these HD Mopar non-OE rails that kick out a few inches...

Also, there's a mute button on the dash - I'd think it would be easier to hijack that single easily-reached button harness, than the entire amplifier. Ham audio keys on, N.O. relay spliced into button loop closes and activates factory mute function. Ham keys off, relay opens, mute deactivates...

If it were me, I'd buy the SGW extension, cut it in the middle, add however much length I needed to put the tazer somewhere secure, and not worry about which wires do what. Just extend the whole harness, every wire. I definitely don't want to mess around with the older OBD versions; I use a...

+1 to above, the roll cage spot is a potential hazard IMHO. The one shown in the second post looks nicely functional, but I'd want to rotate it into the back corner behind the roll bar, and I'm guessing it's a little too big to fit there, and the release knob would be inaccessible (unless it...

I was gonna say, the bracket mounting I see in the instructions doesn't look super bulletproof to me. But hard to say without seeing in person. I haven't tracked prices closely but this seems reasonable? The other option is watching nearby craigslist/FB sales for take-off Mopar rails. these...

I wouldn’t let a passenger ride without a helmet if I had that. LOL at 1/2” foam rubber padding

+1 those bolts belong in the scrap metal bin. Fortunately this is easy to solve and not expensive. But wow what a penny pinching dick move from RH. Black oxide is ludicrous for anything used outside

You're not going to find a consistent definition of "continuous" vs "intermittent" for automotive applications. In power delivery, "continuous" means literally 100% continuous duty cycle for days, weeks, months etc and some components are rated that way. Sometimes 5 min on, 5 min off duty...

Got one in NorCal, in case the location shown in your profile is relevant. If not - good luck, I’m sure one will turn up

It’s a very dark solar filter for a 5-6” telescope. ISO 12312-2 rated. Works the same as eclipse glasses for eyes, and phones too

Quick weekend dash to middle of nowhere, Nevada, for the annular eclipse last weekend

I get nervous with only a single spare on the sharp, young, uneroded rocks on my usual trips in Death Valley, the Colorado Plateau, etc. Had too many flats on week-long trips, where driving in deep backcountry on your spare can take the fun out of things. All sidewall cuts. I carry a good...

Nice! I think I will end up installing something like your PPV. Not for dust exactly, mainly to ventilate the baking hot air in my black Alu-Cab.
