    USB port no worky. Fuses?

    My USB port has recently quit working out of the blue. My ipod doesn't connect or even charge anymore. It has worked without issue for over 2 years and just stopped one day for no reason. My phone still connects to SYNC, and my radio, CD, Sirius, and cigarette lighter all work. I checked...

    Rear Sliding Window Rattle

    I already know what caused it. It's my exhaust resonance, but I'm not getting rid of the magnapack so I have to adapt and overcome. I think it might be worse when it's colder. I have a Chiefs stocking cap shoved between the center seatbelt holder and the window which helps most of the time...

    BFG Whites Out

    It's time for new tires. One crucial question remains... does anyone have a picture of their truck with BFG A/Ts with the whites facing out? Preferably on an orange truck, but beggars can't be choosers.

    RPG kits for folks outside the baja

    I live and offroad in the Midwest, I do not scream across the desert (though I would like to once in my life) and I don't think my axle has ever graced even the stock bump stops, except that time I jumped the railroad track. That being said, I still see value in upgrading the spring system, but...
