    Silly question: Underbody crack on XJ ... Fix with JB Weld Steel Reinforced Epoxy?

    I was kind of thinking along those lines. Maybe stitch weld from the bottom, then smear JB Weld Steel Reinforced on top after buffing real well and bolting a metal plate on top of that before it cures.

    Silly question: Underbody crack on XJ ... Fix with JB Weld Steel Reinforced Epoxy?

    I posted, a few weeks back, about a crack I found under the rear seat of my '99 XJ. It's not so big. I plan on drilling out the ends to reduce stress and figured on having it stitch welded, but a short on YT popped up and got me wondering. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/dtuALDKq7lg I can...

    I hate it when that happens.

    I favor a BLT salad. I buy slab bacon when I can, cut it into thick slices. I cut those into chunks, fry them up, then toss them with lettuce and tomato and a healthy dollop of mayonaise (which I make myself, preferable with avocado oil or sometimes lard). Best salad in the world, IMO.

    A friend of mine used to tell anyone that he saw in public wearing jeans with those holes, "I used to have a pair of jeans like that. Then my daddy got a job."

    Well, at least you might not be so upset at having to sit on the side of the road under a tree.

    Keep a couple of bottles in the back of the Jeep on long trips. If you run out of gasoline, I bet you could drive a few miles on it.

    The where did you go in your Jeep thread

    Dormant thread, but I think it's a pretty cool idea. This week I finally made a trip that I had wanted to for a long time but road conditions were not favorable. There is a village that I travel to that takes about 80 km and 5 hours to get to. That works out to an average speed of about...

    NASCAR meets NHL. Hell, why not just bring back to-the-death gladiator fights in a public arena? I'm pretty certain that the culture in the US s ready for it. Filicide is now completely justifiable on the grounds of just being sad and murdering babies at the point of birth is now legal in at...

    Please strap yourself in, boys!

    I rolled an Isuzu Trooper many years ago when my kids were tykes. I am told we did endos. When it came to rest (upright by the grace of God and - I believe - a literal if small miracle), a metal Craftsman tool box that I carried lose in the back was resting on the top of the back seat right...

    Please strap yourself in, boys!

    This just popped up on my feed. The first one leaves you feeling a bit funky so makes the rest hard to watch (though the rest are all pretty entertaining). Just, put those harnesses and belts on when you are doing stupid stuff, boys! https://www.youtube.com/shorts/KeDmLUZmtpo

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    I'm leaning toward the gray digicam, but I would have to figure out how to do the stencils. I might could skin it, but I don't think that that would do well under off-road conditions, with low hanging branches and such. If I painted it, I'd start with a light gray base and build on that with...

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    I had a thought about just splattering her with paint the color of the different mud I encounter here. That way, I'd never have to wash it. :p

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    That's an interesting idea. I'm not familiar with that particular substance. A couple of questions: 1. Did you roll it on, brush it on, spray it on? 2. Does it come in a gray color or can it be tinted? 3. What does the texture look like. Is it thick like a bed liner, or does it just settle...

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Actually, more of a "What might you do to your Jeep" reply. I have talked - here and elsewhere - about painting the black roof of my TJ a lighter color to make the summer heat here more bearable. Solid gray and solid khaki are what I have considered, but another thought popped into my head this...

    Down here in Mexico, I hardly ever indulge in a softdrink, but when I do it is usually a coca-cola with peanuts. The Mexicans look at me like I'm crazy, but when I get them to try they are always surprised that it's not nasty

    I realize that they are sitting the wrong way to see the screen, but man this brings back memories. My pawpaw was a projectionist in Baton Rouge and worked at the Tiger Drive-in. My mother worked in the concession stand. She used to take us with her on Friday nights and we'd sit out on the...
