    General Tech What did you work on Today?

    Wow, that is odd. I am assuming an RCV axle shaft? Let us know if they cover it or simply tell you that you lost it somewhere when you had it apart. They weren't the most accommodating on my cracked poly boot a couple of years ago but after some bitching they caughed up and replaced it. Mike.

    getting excited for the new BFG KO2

    Thanks for the update. That is another reason I am thinking of switching from the KM2's to the KO2's. My KM2's suck in snow, I have to be in 4WD if there is more than an inch or so. My last Jeep (ZJ) running the KO's was great in winters driving conditions and very seldom ever had to put it...

    ZMotorSports 2011 JKUR Build Thread

    Pulled the Jeep in the shop last night and serviced it along with rotated tires. Getting her ready to head to Moab. My son was bugging me for the lift so he could poke around under his and give it a good once over. Also pulled our ForbiddenJeeps windshield banners last night. That place is...

    Addicted Offroad's Project: "Always Smooth". Toyota based U4 buggy

    Awesome. I know the feeling, with any project the first drive is always excitement mixed with anticipation. My wife knows to not distract me with anything during those times to allow me to focus on the vehicle. Enjoying the first drive as well as listening for any issues and getting a feel...

    Plate bumper fab, size of steel?

    I use .250" plate for the winch mounting/middle bottom plate, then .188" for the front and .125" for top and end caps. I probably could have used .125" for front and top but wanted something just a tad heavier on the front. Mounting plates to the Jeep are .375" x 4" and tie all the way through...

    General Tech What did you work on Today?

    One more small item I wanted to complete over the weekend on our motorcoach before the start of the new RVing season. I decided to finally replace that poorly designed door mechanism that Monaco uses. I don't know why they didn't get with the times like most every other manufacturer but they...

    2 Years In Korea

    Good to hear from you Brian. I had wondered where you were at. I didn't realize you had been assigned to be out of the country. Hope you and the family are doing well. Mike.

    What do you do?

    I will probably take you up on that offer. My wife would like to run back down there in a few months on a long weekend getaway. Haven't decided whether we will take the coach and stay in Torrey again or ride the bike down and stay in a motel in Bicknell. Mike. Mike.

    South-East Utah Moab run April 30 to May 2

    Sound like fun. We are thinking of heading down for my son's spring break in a week or so. Providing I get all my projects done. You will have to report back on Strike Ravine afterwards. We were there over this past Halloween and it was pretty nasty for the first several hundred yards...

    What do you do?

    Beautiful area up there. My wife and I hadn't been to Fish Lake since right after we were first married back in the late 80's. We decided to go to Capitol Reef area this past summer for our 25th Anniversary and one of the days she wanted to take a drive over to Fish Lake. It was just as...

    What do you WANT to do?

    I would love to get back into drag racing and have enough money to do that full-time. That would be my "dream job". Other than that I would just like to be able to work full-time from my home shop and make enough to live comfortably. Mike.

    What do you do?

    That's funny. My brother worked as a maintenance mechanic/electrician in a dairy many years ago. He was born/raised on a dairy farm just as I was but after working for a very short time in the dairy doing maintenance he said he could never drink milk again and definitely never ate ice cream...
