    BEN AFFLECK AND JENNIFER GARNER'S CHILD INTRODUCES THEIR NEW NAME IN PUBLIC

    Based on centuries of the English language, according to this headline it's clear to see that a young child has named its own parents. Unfortunately, due to where this introduction happened it only gets more embarassing for everyone..

    Ford to recall nearly 1.9 million Explorer SUVs to secure trim pieces that can fly off in traffic

    To me this seems pretty ridiculous. Explorers from the 2011 through 2019 are recalled and there have been no known injuries related to these trim pieces. As for trim pieces beside the windshield of any vehicle, the Ford Flex was super PIA due to IIRC 7 plastic clips and 2 or 3 pieces of velcro...

    2006 TJ 4.0 and P2096

    TLDR: Jeep has 78,000 miles, will missing muffler cause P2096? All 4 of my O2 sensors were replaced with NTK sensors in 2020 and over the 7500 miles since then I've had no CEL until now. I know there are several other threads about P2096 and tons of what could be BS on the internet in general...

    2006 Rubicon Front TRU-LOC Internal Problem?

    Unlocked: I pulled the TRU-LOK carrier because I thought the noise came from the bearings due to some water in the differential for an unknown period of time but those bearings look like new. FWIW, The ring gear backlash was .0065" before removal but I still suspected bearing issues Locked...

    How to clean out the front axle tubes?

    I pulled my axle shafts to replace the universal joints and of course I have a huge amount of dried up mud in those tubes. I have used a half assed sheet metal hook I made to pull out as much as I could but there's still a considerable amount of dusty crap in there that I don't want to shove...

    Duel the movie: my experience followed by questions

    FWIW, I almost put this post in the "Car pics too cool not to share" but I figured my questions could lead too far off that topic It's been roughly 20 years since the second time I watched it and almost 6-1/2 years since my Traumatic Brain Injury so I don't remember the movie details beyond...

    Homemade oil pan skid plate

    Not mine, I just saw this on FB. I think it may cause a bigger problem than what it's trying to avoid. Agree or not, what do you think?

    Type of air hose for Rubicon lockers?

    I searched a couple different times and places but haven't found much more than vacuum hose being mentioned and nothing about whether that is good enough or how long it would/could/should last. I'm also not sure if vacuum hose and windshield washer hose is the same hose. Now I'm wondering how...

    Modification Questions

    I've decided that it's time to give my TJ Rubicon a little more ability off road. The timeline of actually doing the work will be from when the weather allows me to work on the mods outside. Ice and snow suck but I can handle working in rain probably over 50 degrees so I am hoping to start in...

    Clearance Prices on Car Oil Fuel Filters

    Everyone needs an oil fuel filter, because we all run those 2 strokes hard!!! Actually, it's not clear why they didn't cover over the word "oil" when adding the word "fuel" to the description of their fine product. "Extend the life of your car by preventing contaminants from damaging it. Use...

    The Original TJ Bottle Jack

    I've read several things on here (and maybe on other sites) about how great the original jacks are. I was happy to hear that after I noticed mine was still under the seat and maybe never used. Of course I wanted to check how good it was and used it to lift (only one tire, I'm not crazy) while...

    Voting gift

    (Not political party related but I feel like I should be headed to a 1970s party that I was too young to attend.) When I went to vote and showed my required ID I was given this nice little rubber tipped thing to sign in on the touch screen. They told me to keep it if I felt like it so I stuck...

    Off-topic because of 50/50 antifreeze (probably other reasons too)

    I started a reply to Alski's thread about trouble finding non premixed but before I hit "Post Reply" I realized it was pretty much off topic so I put it here instead: It looks like pre mixed must be the #1 seller these days. I want to blame things like participation trophies and helicopter...

    How to fix your death wobble on every CJ / Wrangler and some other Jeeps from 1954 thru 2006

    I'm putting this in Off-Topic because this video seems to have at least a handful of things that just ain't quite right. FWIW, I was kinda amused at 16:30 when he looked at the tape measure then did some verbal math to come up with 60-14/16 as the measurement.

    Rite Aid—why the change?

    I was going to post this earlier this year when the drug store changed it's signage but I kinda forgot about it. The sign used to be blue above red and I didn't think of that as a message until they completely dropped the red and replaced it with green and added a mortar & pestle with a pant...
