    California Anybody in Northern California have PRP Daily Driver seats I can sit my butt in?

    I’m looking to buy a set of these for my TJ. But before I spent 1000 bucks on them, I sure would like to sit in them for a couple minutes to make sure they fit. I’m above Sacramento in Yuba City but willing to travel a bit if anybody has a set they can let me check out for half an hour. Thanks!

    Where to buy a single Dana 44 carrier bearing?

    I was getting familiar with my new 20 ton press, and pressing the bearings onto some replacement axle shafts for the first time. I now know what it sounds like the split second before a bearing carrier snapped in half because I pressed it on a little bit too tightly. so….. any recommendations...

    California NorCal Jeep adventures!

    Jeez. 2+ weeks of trying to find a shop to do gears and a locker for me. No luck. Only 1 shop has even returned my call/email. And they said no. EVERY other business has not bothered to get back to me at all. It shouldn’t be this hard to spend money! At this point, I’m worried I won’t be...

    What did you do to your other vehicle today?

    The Cayman received a fresh Set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4s. Replaced some way too old tires that came on the new to me wheels. Sure handles a lot better!

    What did you do to your other vehicle today?

    Washed the Gladiator. Took it out Saturday with my dad and father in law. It was stuck in the mud for an hour so it needed a bit of a wash.

    Opinions on Dick Cepek DC-2 wheels?

    Horrendously ugly. If I was given a set, they would be replaced before I even opened the box.

    Black Rhino Rumble Wheels (15x7, 4.6 BS)

    I know this is anecdotal, but I have heard more than one person say the coating applied to the black rhino wheels is not holding up all that well. Now to be honest with you, I don’t even remember which forum I saw that on because I am also on some other four-wheel-drive forums. But I saw it...

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    That one single LED was enough to upset the balance. Tipped it right over. THATS why I need the second one mounted soon!

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Wired up my Amazon budget off road LED spots. Need to pick up some different mounting hardware so just rigged up one to make sure it works.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Finished up the Brown Dog MML. Cured 95% of the shifter vibration I was having. Drives so much smoother now. Very happy. Next up is an alignment. Was going to mount some off road lights I picked up but didn’t have bolts long enough to mount on the bumper hoop.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    I should clarify - I was having vibes before the MML. I have a 2 - 2.5 lift so they may help.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Installed my Brown Dog MML. Will raise the fan shroud tomorrow. Driver side was a pain. 1.5 Hours. Passenger was 30 minutes. I am having some vibration in my shifter. Mostly N > 1st. Thought it may have been a broken motor mount, but they looked ok. I’ll see how it feels tomorrow after I get...

    Shifter shakes a lot - but only going from N>1st. Driveline or clutch?

    Great - thanks for the info. I did indeed get the rubber mounts. I’ll go ahead and install them this weekend and hope for the best. Easier then a clutch!
