    Anyone recognize these wheels?

    I have a parts jeep with these wheels on it. Aluminum, pretty clean but need polishing. Wondering if they have any value beyond scrap... personally I think they're ugly, but I'm not a good judge of these things. TIA

    T316 SS zip tie cutters - any suggestions?

    We're doing some work in a sick animal research facility in the Midwest. We have about 2,500 SS zip ties to install on some of the head-gates. The zip tie cutter we received (free!) with an order from Amazon worked OK for doing mockups, but after about about 100 it stopped tensioning correctly...

    YJ Dana 30 gear set in TJ?

    I'm (maybe was) re-gearing from 3.73 to 4.10 - I was given the 4.10's out of a (year unknown) TJ YJ with the same Dana 30/Dana 35 setup. If I had to purchase everything, I would have stepped up to 4.88, but for free (just needed bearing kits) (and I enjoy working on her) I could get a little bump in a...

    Howdy from the VA mountains

    Good morning all, I've lurked here for over a year (not much on computers since DOS 5.2), learned an amazing amount just reading old posts: My Hi-lift jack I just had to buy is a poor boat anchor. 33" tires can (not) be run on a stock TJ. A Jeep is not a car, a truck or an SUV. It's a jeep...
