    Anyone know anything about trade / apprenticeship programs?

    Unfortunately it is not a licensed trade like the plumbers or electricians but I went through the United Brotherhood of Carpenter's apprenticeship program and have been working as a union carpenter for 20 years. Definitely worth the effort. The UBC has provided a great life for my family. Ten...

    Roof Rack Shimmy

    Took the TJ out exploring last weekend and noticed a significant shimmy in my roof rack. Check out the video, you can see it pretty clearly: I know the roof top tent and Hi-Lift probably don't help but, besides taking those things off the rack, does anyone have any suggestions on how to...

    Roll Bar Bags

    Thanks for the info. I searched Bestop saddle bags real quick. Can they be unbuckled and turned into duffle bags (with a shoulder strap)? That's pretty cool! How do you like the them? How long have you had them? How have they held up over that time? What kind of stuff do you store in them? Do...
