It will most likely be able to do more than you are willing to attempt...:like:

What I did was to pull the carpet down a bit, then, extrapolating a line from the point where the brake pedal meets the brake arm, drill the hole. That should put the hole about an inch or so below the top edge of the carpet, missing the plastic piece. The drill bit should go through the foil...

Thanks - I'll give him a try!

That's what I'm looking for - someone who can do the conversion. I don't want to buy a software package and go through the learning curve to become proficient with it, for a one-time use - I'd rather pay someone a reasonable fee for their expertise!

I've got a couple of low resolution images that I would like to enlarge to make decals for my front doors and my tailgate. The images are jpg but when I enlarge them they lose a lot of detail so I'm looking for someone who is a whiz at manipulating images who can convert my low-res jpg images...

...and then they come back a few months later with "So, I'm now the owner of a great new one after saying I'm done"...

Here's another option for you: install a 12V battery on the trailer to power the winch - then all you'd need for wiring is what a typical travel trailer uses for a 12V feed from the tow vehicle to recharge that battery...

I was C Co, 1/504 from 1971-73 - spent my whole time at Ft Bragg, except for the 2 weeks we were sent to Miami during the 1972 political conventions.

Another vet here: my Grandfather was in the Canadian Army in WWI - injured during the Battle of Paschendale. My Father was RCAF in WWII - wireless operator on a Lancaster bomber crew. I was 82nd Airborne M60 machine gunner during the Vietnam era; our younger son is currently nearing retirement...

My '64 Dodge 330 had the reverse threaded lug nuts - their reasoning: with the reverse threading when the car is moving down the highway the centrifugal force on the lug nuts would tend to tighten them rather than loosening them.

I once had a service manager tell me that they had a "hierarchy" of how jobs got into the shop for work: 1. Their customer's non-warranty work 2. Non-customer's non-warranty work 3. Their customer's warranty work 4. Non-customer's warranty work I don't know if that's an industry standard, but...

I believe that valve is the anti-siphon valve that's been installed in vehicles for several decades now - it's purpose is to prevent miscreants from siphoning out all your go-juice. It also prevents spillage in the event of your vehicle going belly-up.

I'm using the Ready Brute Elite on my 2020 Gladiator, with my home-made version of the CoolTech wiring harness - no charge line needed because there is no draw from the JT battery at all. Use the same setup on our 2022 JLU and, again, no problems. This past summer we pulled the JLU from San...

Some people think "Rubicon" is the model name - we have a friend that thinks this way: us: Hey - you bought a Wrangler! her: No I didn't - it's a Rubicon!

I built my own copy of the CoolTech harness and saved a ton of money. For the installation I used spade connectors to make removing it a breeze. I can return our Jeeps to factory configuration in minutes - at least once I dig my way down to the wiring channel under the front passenger door! I...

I'm using the NSA Ready Brute Elite tow bar system - has a built-in mechanical brake system that works well. If you've already got a tow bar, then they make the Ready Brake unit that attaches between the RV's receiver and the tow bar.,

Here's another data point: my 2020 Gladiator gets about mpg better than my wife's 2022 JLU, no matter which one of us is driving - both have the 3.6L/8 speed; the only difference in the drivetrain is the gear ratio: mine is 3.73:1 while hers is 3.45:1. Going by gear ratio she should get better...

Thanks - I read through that one and decided I'll forget about trying it!

Looks like it's not a great idea - I guess I'll have to find another way to get heavy stuff (like my wife's mobility scooter) into the bed.

Has anyone tried installing a crane in their bed, to help get heavy objects into the bed? I'm thinking about this one from Harbor Freight but my concern is how to mount the thing.
