    Tire siping?

    I've noticed a big difference on ice and snow but not anywhere else. I always get my mud tires done. I only do the inside lugs as I have found when I do the outside lugs they tend to chunk when I am on the rocks. Medsker

    Driving on the snowy road with dual lockers

    Yea, after I got used to my old TJ I loved having them at both ends...I began to be able to predict the unpredictable and the that made it more fun. Of course having the Rubicon now makes it nice because my wife can drive it when she needs to.

    Who would you want to control Jeep?

    I put other...I'm just not sure who I would want to run it. I'm just sure that if anyone foreign, at least anyone big were to buy Jeep out that it would be the end of Jeep as we know it. My guess is they would immediately get rid of the front solid axle and "cushy" it up...although they might...

    JK Owners, tell us about your rigs!

    With my 5.13 gears and 37's my overdrive is all but useless. If I have a long downhill on the freeway I'll reach down and hit the button that flips it on but other than that the first thing I do after starting the engine is turn it off because it drives me crazy the way it kicks on and off every...

    JK Owners, tell us about your rigs!

    Mine has a 4" lift with 37" tires. I had to take a BFH to the wheel wells and trim the fender flares to make them fit without rubbing but I felt I wanted to go 37's to help with the breakover angle. I put in 5.13's. I also relocated the evap canister and muffler (evap was free and bought a...

    Report Field Trip to Teraflex

    So is Tera-Flex going to put together an install kit for the JK Hemi swap like they did for the TJ? If so when will it be out? I'm thinking I will do a Hemi swap in mine starting in March of 2010. I need cable for my winch...how much for one I Lean? Medsker

    Any Safety Inspectors Here or Vehicle Law Know-It-Alls?

    Way cool! Great idea on chopping a Bug, I've never seen one of those but with mostly all flat glass I'm surprised more people don't do them. Medsker

    Snakes

    Heading to the snakes tomorrow. Will probably get to the trailhead around 9:30 if anyone wants to come. Will do rattlesnake for sure, probably won't do constrictor because I've never done it and will be with a stock Land Cruiser but will probably play around afterward and maybe head over to...

    Stuck truck in Butterfield Canyon needs removal before snowfall

    Tyson checked and they said we could bring as many as we wanted but the Sheriff that opened the gate wouldn't let us. That being said we got the truck out. It took three Jeeps winching, one straight up, one up and forward, and one forward but we got it. We had to dig a road and place trees down...

    Stuck truck in Butterfield Canyon needs removal before snowfall

    I listed I would be on CH 16, then you come along and say you'll be on CH 5...do you just not like me and don't want to talk to me :rofl:. I'll still set mine to 16 since that's what I told everyone but will occasionally check CH 5 and scan for chatter...mine doesn't work all that well anyway...

    Stuck truck in Butterfield Canyon needs removal before snowfall

    I thinking most people will be at the dirt parking lot but there may be a couple that didn't read this lately that meet at the Church. Why doesn't everyone plan on meeting at the dirt parking lot and I'll hang at the Church parking lot until 9:05-9:10 and then come up and join you. I'll have my...

    Stuck truck in Butterfield Canyon needs removal before snowfall

    I'm guessing you should be able to other than that place 150 feet from the truck where I slid off will still give people trouble. I also don't think we want head down onto the small road from the top with more than 3-4 vehicles. There is only one place to turn around and I think if we get piled...

    Stuck truck in Butterfield Canyon needs removal before snowfall

    The only way to get a line to it is from the road it slid off of. The only way to do two lines would be to snake the second line around the first first winch vehicle (around the side by snatch blocking it to a tree so it doesn't push first vehicle off road or slide along it). I think this would...

    Stuck truck in Butterfield Canyon needs removal before snowfall

    I'm a maybe for Saturday (already told my dad I'd go snowmobiling with him if he goes). I can go Sunday. Other than the strap and chains I left up there I have a couple more chains, couple of D-rings, winch, snatch block, two 3' lengths of re-bar and various straps that I mainly use for tree...

    Stuck truck in Butterfield Canyon needs removal before snowfall

    I wouldn't mind going today but I guess I would like to hear from Tyson, the owner of the truck. I told him that I would post up on here what happened and then ask when everyone was available and then for him to get on and see what's happening. He hasn't called me and hasn't got on here and I...
