    Bottle Jack Useful Accessory Build (Or - Bye, Bye High Lift!)

    I've been kicking around the idea of replacing my High-Lift Jack with a Bottle Jack for years. The problem is when running 40's, it's tough to find a bottle jack that will lift high enough to get a tire off the ground. Now to be clear, I am a high-lift fan. It's safe if you are smarter than...

    Taking up Sewing - Need Advice

    Not sure where best to drop this, but since it involves a tool I thought I’d drop it here. I’m giving some thought to picking up a heavy duty sewing machine for doing canvas work, strap repair, sewing mis-spelled labels onto Tool Wraps, etc. Anyone have any advice for what to look for in a...

    Canvas Tool Wrap Comparison

    This week I made the switch from tool bags to canvas tool wraps. This thread is a brief comparison of four tool wraps, and my reasoning for my selection. If anyone is in the market, I hope this helps a bit. Over the years I've gone through several iterations of storage for the hand tools I...

    Fuel pump for a Hemi in a 2004 LJ

    If you follow my build thread, you may recall that during a wheelin' trip last weekend I began having trouble starting the rig. Long story short, the problem is most likely the pressure regulator in the pump not holding pressure, and leaking down when not running. If I cycle the key a few...

    Amplifier for Kenwood DNX773S and Polk DB522's: Would it improve my setup?

    I've been watching a few audio threads concerning improving the TJ sound system, and it prompted me to ask a question about amplifiers. Hopefully a few of the experts (looking right at you @Jerry Bransford and @TheBoogieman ) can weight in. Thanks in advance. In my rig, I run a Kenwood...

    I have a good friend who is starting a UT / Colorado trip in Salt Lake City, and is looking for a service to transport his JT from Nashville to Salt Lake. Does anyone have any recommendation or experience with a transport service which would do so? Thanks in advance, Jeff

    Colorado Looking for help from my CO buddies

    Last summer I and several buddies did an adventure motorcycle trip through Colorado. We did the Colorado Back Country Discovery Route (BDR) which goes from Wyoming down through central CO to New Mexico, almost all off road. It goes up and over many of the coolest passes in CO: Cottonwood...

    Ring and Pinion Gear Pattern Help

    I'm setting up a set of 5.38's on a 14 Bolt I'm building over on my build thread. I got a lot of great input here when I did my '60 setup about a month ago, so here I am again hoping for the same. After five setups ranging from 0 to 30 thou on the pinion carrier shim, here it is at 13 thou and...

    You might be a mall crawler if...

    Recently while watching a thread about another member being called a Mall Crawler, Jeff Foxworthy's bit "...You Might be a Redneck" came to mind. I though it would be fun to see what folks here can come up with along those lines. Nothing mean spirited, but I think this could be fun. I'll start...

    Ring and Pinion Gear Pattern Help

    I'm setting up new R&P gears and ARB locker in my high-pinion, reverse-cut, pro-rock 60, and I'd like some input on my last pattern - it the 6th iteration. I'm also posting this on my build thread, but was hoping to get some more feedback. Thanks in advance. Backlash is about 6.8 thou. Any...

    Nashville TJ's Build - Continued

    I am new to wranglertjforum.com, but not new to Jeep's or forums in general. I've spent a good bit of time over on..., well..., let's just call it thatotherjeepforum.com. Lately though, it's become more and more quiet with not nearly the activity as when I joined many years ago. Come to find...
