Excellent advise and a recommendation I am currently working on. I've replaced the starter, upper/lower coolant hoses, constant tension clamps, engine air filter and none of those parts belong to a JT. Even the engine oil, diff oil, and coolant are different flavors! Too much to keep track of...

Thank you. It was a bit mind numbing. Held up for a 3k miles trip to the Black Hills and Glacier NP!

I really pulled the thread chasing down what started as a small coolant leak... I began by swapping the worm gear clamps for factory-style constant tension clamps, only to realize that nothing on my cooling system is factory anymore. That meant learning how to properly measure constant tension...

Quick release is a good idea. What clamps are you using for that? Nice pic!

We've been caught in all types of weather, but I don't recall any issues with it getting in the camper because we are closing it up. There's a seal that runs the perimeter of the walls to keep it a little more tight when open and they also act as a bit of a barrier when lowering everything. I...

Haha no problem!

I'll admit I haven't read every work of every post, but a couple things stuck out to me reading through... 6.4 vs. 5.7 - beyond the benefits you laid out, just do some research on the BGE (Big Gas Engine) they are meant to take some abuse. Durability and additional cooling meant to take boost...

This latest video is all about storage. I've had 3 JTs and have set them all up differently. From overland to offroad there's something in the middle that seems to work best for me. This video reviews some of my past setups, what I've used, what is now collecting dust in my garage, and what I...

Over the last decade my camp set up and needs has changed quite a bit. I've gone from ground tent, to rooftop, to rooftop on utility trailer, to teardrop camper, and now to small camper. We started primarily as an overland setup and now we are something between overlanders and offroaders...

Does AMW sell the bumpers they use? They are manufactured by nemesis (without the cutouts), but I've never seen an option to purchase "their" bumpers. I'm guessing it's for the exclusivity of having an AMW build. Here's a link to nemesis ind kelvin bumper...

I haven't hear of that, but that doesn't mean it's not legit. Looks real. I will actually be in the Black Hills over the 4th, closer to Spearfish. If you go post up about your experience.

My latest video give a pretty good walk around of the build in scenic Moab! Please let me know if there's an interest in a real deep dive into the modifications and the rationale into the parts I chose.

Bummer! Well here's another shot, this one from Kane Creek

Thanks, hopefully I'm done with the suspension for a while (EVO long arms this past winter)! Hopefully Artec gets the customer service/supply side down, they have a good product.

Were you at EJS this year?

Do you have a profile shot compared to stock? Are they the same dimensions different design?

Long really do make a big difference, especially when the lift and tires get taller. Is the rear truss all from artec or did you have to adapt it to work with that specific diff?

Please make sure to post up on your progress! Curious to see what you come up with. Trust, me, I know all about doing something and then doing it again, and again ;)

@WILDHOBO I just saw a social media tidbit stating that the cavfab rear bumper is reverse sensor compatible.
