    You can run steel winch cable through an aluminium fairlead?

    A steel cable would make short work out of an aluminum hawse. It would be basically a giant rasp with a lot of force chewing away at the aluminum. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Check out these little clones

    They bought the rights to use the old press plates from the early jeep. They kind of have the nod from Jeep to produce them. I like them but they're still too much money for a non street legal rig. Hell, you can street some of the side by sides. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Is this a Pedophile?

    Maybe they're hoping to BE the boy next door. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Hardwired 5V USB port?

    My concern is getting one that pushes enough power to charge the new phones quick. As it is now I have a power port one that charges my phone pretty quick and if it dies I just plug a new one in, if I used a hard wired one it would be more of a pain in the butt to replace or upgrade.

    Pictures of weird things

    Allowed. Aloud is something completely different. Speech to text is one of the dumbest things ever invented

    Is this muddy residue on my axle shaft normal?

    Are you positive that they put the new axle in? If that is the end of the axle tube next to the pumpkin and it is leaking there you have a serious problem

    2004 Jeep Wrangler Sport aftermarket cruise control

    I don't think I have the engine bay wiring harness either. I can't find the plug that's supposed to be below the master cylinder. What do I need to do?

    Rear brakes

    Pep boys around here will turn rotors. I was surprised they still did it but there was only one guy that worked there that knew how to run the machine. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    How-to fix the annoying parking brake chime on 05-06 TJs

    My 05 manual beeps but it's more random, it doesn't always beep and sometimes it only beeps a couple of times.

    What's the trick to getting off this electrical connector?

    I haven't had that exact connector apart but on ones like it I've used channel locks on the tabs

    Does anybody out there know of a way to make farm shit smell like roses?

    I grew up with dairy land on 2 sides of us, they used the giant crap shooters (imagine your lawn sprinkler with a 4 inch pipe feeding it) . I actually miss it a bit now days. It only bothered us when we were having company over for a potluck, lol. We just took the shindig back in the house then.

    Handy people / home improvements

    Your crawl space vent set up is already there, I'd go with it but run it outside like it should have been in the first place. There's fans that are equivalent to a booster that go inline with the ducting. You could wire that to a switch on the island. I would not go with running the duct down...

    You ever just get tired of the bullshit?

    MrBaine. You've helped so many of us on different issues on our rigs. Let me know if this chocolate Cheerio is local to Western Washington and I will gladly go bitch slap the shit out of him for ya. That would be a minor payback for all your help over the years.

    How to swap a high amp Dodge Durango alternator into your Jeep Wrangler TJ

    When you run bigger cables make sure to run a bigger ground from the frame of the alternator to something like the common ground on the side of the block. Sorry, no pics Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
