1.25" BL, 1" motor mount lift, and 34x10.50 Interco LTB's. They ride better than my BFGs did, and so much grip! All ya'll need swampers. Just do it.

I ran over a pop rivet one day in my Mustang a few years back, and I'm awful glad I had a spare- it left a huge hole. Why would I not keep a spare on the Jeep? You never know what might happen. I keep a tire repair kit and small a compressor on me as well for emergencies, but having the spare...

Maybe it's an LJ issue with the frame being a little different, but this is as far under the skid plate as I could get it. I'm doing a body lift once my new tires come in and I'll rotate the cooler back some then as well. It's already pretty close to the body as it is- 1/4" at most.

It took awhile to find one that would fit the way I wanted it to. Plenty of plastic ones but I wanted something a little nicer. Once I starting digging into the trailer tongue boxes I started finding stuff. It's a tight fit but I still can use the cup holders and the seats are in a comfortable...

I probably relocated mine like 4 times trying to get it where I wanted. I ended up forward mounting it because it tucked up under the skid plate better that way. I had to do some engineering to get the thing to fit around the side steps- and it'll be a PITA all over again when I put rock sliders...

Some C-channel, U-bolts, unistrut and a tool box all bolted together. No drilling required (well, to the Jeep anyway). Not necessarily weird, I just haven't seen it done before.

First time I drove it up in the mountains I could smell the tranny fluid cooking. Ever since then I hit the "Overdrive Off" button every time I get it in and I am not afraid of locking it in 2nd or 1st to keep the shift count down. I haven't had any complaints since I started turning OD off...

Uh, my kayak rack is the roll bar on the chassis. (Redneck?) I tie off on the brush guard, the tire carrier, and behind the front doors. Top down of course. I don't have to drive too far (or too fast) to the river. I've seen a few other guys around here do it, and I haven't had any issues yet...

Not so much what I did for the jeep but more about what I did for my back. Jeep assisted kayak hoist (y)

YJ front brake lines. No big deal until the nut stripped out with my box wrench. Kroil working while I put the tea in the bourbon.

https://www.morris4x4center.com/pavement-ends-winch-plate-matte-black-powder-coated-45921-01.html I figured for $17 I could make it work on a stock bumper haha! Sturdy plate. If my memory serves me correctly I think all the bolt holes lined up perfectly. I had to cut the rubber blocks down a...

Well now that this thread got bumped, I'll show my stock bumper rigged up with a bunch of crap: I've got the rope spooled all the way in with one of those overpriced factor 55 nipple things now, I didn't like having the hook hanging that low.

There’s a Dirt Everyday episode where they figure out lockers are better than pretty much anything else you can do. Looking back, spending a little more for a Rubi makes more sense knowing how much lockers cost haha.

Now I dealt with this issue on my Miata, and the new cam sensor did the exact same thing to me. I couldn’t go over 3k rpms and threw a new code on it as well. There is more too that story- I put the original sensor back in after some tinkering (immobilizer issue) and everything worked. Anyway...

If it's not the sensor, you've got bigger problems. Go to your local parts store and replace it. If the code clears you're good. If it doesn't well, your timing is off. Also check wiring for wear/shorts.
