Alright, let’s talk some bc affordable shock options. Looking for something to help tame some sway on the JT. The current 18 month old cheap twin tubes can’t control the added weight of the RSI, bumper and winch. Ideally would like to stay under 100 a pop but know I’m in 120-150 more than...
Well, long overdue, but finally getting around to a thread to gather details for the move to El Paso (Ft Bliss). Move courtesy of the greatest fight force on Earth.
Pointers, especially about vehicle registration and inspection in Texas. Tracking El Paso is a smog county, not worried about the...
After a lot of back and forth I finally pulled the trigger on a winch for the JT. Had always planned on getting a Badlands Apex to match the JLU (been a great winch by the way), but the current pricing had me looking at other options. After reading a ton of Amazon reviews I settled on a Rugcel...
Hey everyone. Doing a last minute trip to Badlands (was Redbird) tomorrow if anyone is interested. Planning on getting there around 0930. Changed due to not wanting to deal with the slop…
Currently just taking out the JLU with the wife and kids. (Unless I can talk her into driving, then I will...
What are you all using to get your pups into the bed? Milo sucked at jumping into the bed, even before the lift. While I can lift his 75lb ass up there, I need something for the wife.
Also, if anyone has any hints for getting him in his crate short of a wrestling match… he started fighting...
I need some assistance from the group here. I am looking to pick up a set of JTRD springs. Plan is to put them on the front of my max tow in combination with the spacer lift to offset the weight of the bumper and future winch. Bonus is they come with shocks which will go on the JLU.
Anyway the...
The father-in-law and myself hit up Redbird this past week. I let him drive the JLU while I did my first run in the TJ. We didn’t get to take the JT on this trip as the wives were out shopping. It was pretty dry for Redbird but still got to test out the APEX winch a few times.
The trails were...

Well time to start documenting the build up of this Jeep. Background I came from an XJ based buggy but priorities change as you grow a family and I ended up in a JLU. Family loved it and I got tired of the other ride not getting any miles on it. So we traded it to a JT. This is being built to...
