    Christmas Lights

    Years ago I started upgrading to the better strands of tree lights that don’t all die when one bulb dies. A whole lot simpler. I used to hang icicle lights on the eaves as I really like the look but after raising the house it’s too much hassle now. HO-HO-HO. Doh!

    Do you carry a concealed handgun?

    Everyday, at home or on the road. Colt Mustang or a J frame Smith.

    Inflatable rear mattress for a TJ?

    Don't know about a mattress but an inflatable hemorrhoid donut would fit. Plenty of head room in my Tj.

    What's currently your favorite tune?

    I love PMJ’s version of ‘All About That Bass’ a whole lot.

    What's currently your favorite tune?

    I’ve found a uniq sounding ‘group’ as they swap out singers and musicians called Postmodern Jukebox. Some really fine covers of old and new stuff that don’t necessarily sound anything like the original. If I can figure out how I’ll post a video.

    Is my Jeep Wrangler TJ reliable enough to take on a road trip?

    Don’t know if I’d take Ripley too far from home as I have a 2013 edge but I might. AAA membership is always good, 500.00 cash and a clear cc, basic tools, ck fluids, tires, bad/cold weather gear, electronics and I like a current road atlas if I’m going somewhere I’ve never been. Smart phones...

    How I Finished-Out My Dash

    Wouldn’t call Ripley quiet but my radio‘s face has been off for a while now. Been too lazy to reinstall it. Wildryde, I’ve got the bad oem radio that came out of her if you need a filler that doesn’t make noise. Get yourself some sheet metal and build a cubby hole where the radio was, couple of...

    The most functional side rails ever?

    The twisted bar is fine but the barbs aren’t anywhere near a good idea. I can see a lot of torn clothes if not worse. Woe be the mechanic that puts that thing on a lift. Maybe if it was cast in a Mad Max sequel?

    Are seat belts better than airbags for fat people?

    Don’t know about a gov’ment scheme as iq’s take a noticeable drop when they get inside of the beltway. And Donald Trump sure as hell ain’t no mastermind. But it is a fact that safety policies, rules and eventually legislation are written in somebody’s blood. As lawyers ultimately run the country...

    Are any of you constipated?

    I like the seats. Would a pair of them fit in my 02 Tj?

    Bumper Trim End Ideas?

    Bought the flat end caps for the front but replaced the rear bumper with one with a Cj look.

    Are seat belts better than airbags for fat people?

    Seatbelts keep you in the vehicle in the event of a rollover while airbags safely decelerate you. I lost 2 friends this year when they were ejected from the Challenger they were in. No alcohol but speed was a factor. The third passenger in the back seat who was wearing his seat belt survived. A...

    I'm an idiot...

    One of my first things that I did to Ripley was to replace the crap oem radio with a Sony N5300 to have a connection port for my ipod and a cd slot. I didn’t mess with the speakers but in my half cab it sounds great. Gotta have my rock and roll so I ‘don’t get fooled again.’

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Here’s my gas bezel and door latch. I like the look. I’m not replacing the door or windshield hinges with bling though.

    A month using a toy knife

    Speaking of bolos, this was a 1917 bolo that had lost its guard and had broken scales so last year I reshaped it and cut the tang to make a Krag Bowie. Turned out sharp. Very rare original Krag Bowies are about $4000.00, mine was considerably cheaper. When a small number were issued to troops to...

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Swapped out my cracked plastic gas bezel with a nice s/s one. Easy peasy. Then I swapped out my rusty, bed liner painted up driver side outside door latch with a s/s unit. Thank goodness I’ve got long skinny fingers, wow what a nightmare. The old latch worked fine but looked like crap, this one...

    Looking for recommendation on best hood latch

    My hunting bud had a 1970ish Toyota Land Cruiser that he failed to secure the hood on. He didn’t break the windshield but he put a nice crease in his hood.
