    Discontinued plasma part

    I'm not even finding anything that pops up with that number - stock or not. Could you share an image, link, etc?

    Arizona 1997 TJ Hemi swap from Fat Bob's in Utah

    Man I somehow haven't looked at this thread. I'm trying to convince myself not to see how good of a deal you'd make.....

    California What Trails in California Actually Require a Jeep?

    It sounds like something like a Grand Cherokee or 4Runner may be a better fit for your needs than a Wrangler - but when did anyone here ever go by needs?

    Off-road Campers (Towing with LJ)

    My brother's Off Road camper will be delivered this week. He's running a 2 door JL Rubicon with a 2.5" lift and 35's. As long as July goes well for the arrival of a baby Shank I will be ordering one in Sept/Oct. The logical plan financially for me is to use the 4Runner for our trip summer '25...

    Woman forced to sell her dream car after paying $40k in interest over 3 years

    I thought banks would usually lend 4x income on a house (I know there are a lot of other factors).

    At risk of doubling down on my last error, I was trying to come up with a case as to how this load scenario isn’t the same as what the step/platform is. Best I can think this is actually worse (not in magnitude, that is obvious, but rather direction). With this I know you weren’t suggesting...

    Reread. Maybe had one too many tonight. You would be correct in your assessment - at least prior to this comment.

    While I understand the why a far larger span is worse, is the top step not doing the exact same thing as your post on the last page hence rendering cross supports less necessary? We could run simulation based on load but I’d guess it’s unnecessary.

    What if it was just an upper platform braced like this? (Side profile)

    With the steps, it likely doesn't.

    Boots

    I have those but been rocking the Moab Speed's for everyday wear. Significant difference in comfort from regular shoes I had been buying.

    I am certainly leaning that way but would reserve judgement to driving one. Simplicity of not having it is nice. MPG and generator could also be nice. Warranty Warranty Warranty is my only plan either way.

    Powerboost is hybrid version of the 3.5, hence the increase. Regular is probably similar to your experience. I've come to the reality due to some life changes that I won't be towing anything more than once or twice a year and never more than 8,000lbs so no need to keep my Duramax (though I may...

    Shouldn't have talked about it.... Said 6 speed is having issues. Also funny I am considering picking up a 1-2 year old 3.5 Ecoboost. Anyone have thoughts on the Powerboost - 7kw generator and 23mpg city sounds cool....
