    GEN 2 Woolwax/Fluid film DIY

    Fluid film or lanolin oil what it’s made from is used in the marine industry on everything from spraying into electric motors, electrical terminal strips to a preservative for external metal engine parts. It’s very long lasting if not exposed to direct uv. As an under coat it’s phenomenal for autos

    2017 needs new engine

    I bought a 2008 Jeep rubicon for the wife brand new. At 13,000 miles she calls and tells me it’s making terrible noises. I told her to park and went and checked it out. Pulled the dip stick and it had no oil on the stick. Carefully put oil in it without leaving any trace in the under hood dust...

    GEN 2 Wiring question-Adding powered sub to non B&O system

    The lc2i is what we used before the nav tv unit and I didn’t like it at all. Liked to have heard it without using the stock subs channel for sound. Either way it sounded great when done right.

    GEN 2 Wiring question-Adding powered sub to non B&O system

    The installer, before the nav tv was installed, removed the stock sub and used its input for the amp. The subs output turned down in volume as the head unit turned up. I heard this can be defeated I heard through forscan

    GEN 2 Wiring question-Adding powered sub to non B&O system

    [Nevada/California] Tonopah to Las Vegas to Thermal

    Came out without the slightest scratch. Just was careful how I removed the mud with the sharp dg in it.

    [Nevada/California] Tonopah to Las Vegas to Thermal

    I highly recommend the canyon sin nombre off s2 through devils drop off into fish creek. One of the best trips in that area. My family have property in borrego springs and I spent decades exploring the anza borrego desert. Going from the s2 side the drop off is doable in a stock raptor with...

    Airing down (no headlocks)

    Don’t go less then 12 psi unless you really need to, and don’t plan on loading those side walls through donuts etc or you will roll a bead. Sum it up with no bead lock I try not to go lower then 8psi to get me out, and 12-24 depending on speed, terrain and distance. Just my 2 cents of 30 years...

    Broken Driver side half shaft

    High speed spinning then hook up will break any axle with enough power behind it. Rock crawlers deal with this all the time. You can dump a ton of money building axles stronger yet heavier and still break them. It’s easier just to regulate the right pedal. I do have a Dana 60 front left stub on...

    Goodbye to my 2019 screw!

    As far as how something feels to a person I’ve learned a long time ago that everyone has an opinion, politics, religion etc. As for me it was the disappointment of Trading in my 6 cylinder naturally aspirated mustang for a second slower 0-60 in this truck. Drove it home and was very disappointed...

    Goodbye to my 2019 screw!

    I got 68,000 to leave it with the stereo, canopy and tune/exhaust/intake on it. They offered 64,000 but I held out for 68,000. I got the tremor for 2,000 under sticker 82,000. I have owned a 80’s f350 a 2000’s f250 and dodge 2500. This 350 rides so much better empty. Haven’t had it off road but...
