It has been brutal. I had some time to work on it Saturday afternoon, but it was 110° in the garage, that wasn't happening. Even this morning, I got a couple hours in on it before work, started at 5am, opened the garage door and it got "down" to 88° 🥵 Normally I'd just leave it until the...

Question for you guys... When I started tightening down the engine bolt mount plate, the threads on the nut and inside the bolt stripped. I had not tightened this down much, I think I just had a 3/8" wrench on it. Is this a defective bolt/nut, or do I need to go grade 8. Would grade 8 even...

It’s about time!!! MSRP will start at... $60k?

We just picked up a JK that the previous owner converted to captains chairs. It’s a neat idea, but this thing is a kid hauler. It’s pretty comfy, and it has enough room for adults to sit back there. These are the black with white stitched leather rubicon seatsand ideally I’d like trade for a...

That’s awesome! We pulled out a couple rose bushes and bought a fire pit to use in the front yard. It has worked out really good for getting to know the neighbors better

Super happy with the 40. It got down to 39* from 95* in about 25 minutes. The only thing that feels cheap on it is the lid. It is a perfect fit in the back of our grand cherokee. The lid can open all the way. I’ll probably add a small wire rack for organization. It definitely has enough space...

Funny you say that, 3 years after selling our rig, I bought a JK yesterday

Triplets 😲 Congrats!!! Man, having twins was tough, you have like 50% more.

Just locked 2.25% (2.4 APR) with Box, closing costs $4k on a 15 year. Hard to imagine rates going much lower, but I guess there has been talk of negative interest rates. Thanks to whoever mentioned box home loans, I looked into b/c of this thread. Super user friendly and quick response time.

:rofl: Thanks for sharing btw, I’ve been trying to justify one for awhile, and between the price and Costco’s return policy this was a no brainer

The 50 is massive! I did some quick measurements and I don't think I'd be able to open the lid with it in the back of our Grand Cherokee. I ordered the CX40...

The problem is with ICU beds and ventilators, not total available beds. A few weeks ago, the StG ICU was at 2/3 capacity (only 1/4 of those being COVID patients)... It really would not take much to overwhelm the system, considering the large area the StG hospital serves. In the same report the...

If it was legit, why would he not just announce where it was and solve the mystery? I'm convinced it was a hoax. And why does the finder want to remain anonymous? So no one will try to steal it from him? I don't know, I'm just not buying it.

Yep, it’s coming along! We almost wrapped up the wiring harness Saturday night, installed the floor and pulled the radiator hoses through the chassis. It was awesome to have @Corban_White lending a hand for the weekend.

When my wife gets pulled over for speeding and I’m in the passenger seat, I go silent too. What is there to argue about? She was caught speeding, and the officer will deal with the situation as he deems necessary. My interjection will never de-escalate that situation. If my wife was getting...

I like Garmin Connect. However, I haven’t tracked rides for quite a while. I have more fun when I care less about performance

That was a good read! Kinda makes me want to ride a 36er just for fun. One bit of the article that stood out to me was this little comment. I just haven’t been able to get excited about 29ers, and I wonder if this is why... I’m not at all a fast rider, and he basically just described my riding...

I'll take a stab at this... Vertical racks are harder to load, especially for vertically challenged people. I think the easiest to load are the tire hoop style. I have a northshore 4 bike rack, and it's hard to beat for stowability and light weight. I considered DIY using the Lolo bike rack...

Man, lots of good advice here, wish I would have done some of those things when I bought our 1st home. Do a 15 year mortgage if at all possible.

OneUp components EDC. I did the steerer tube, but the pump is probably the better solution
