It's toxic when being sprayed, but so is paint. Paint is generally considered more toxic. Both are only toxic when they're being sprayed. Which is why people who spray them wear filter masks.

The Rhinoline idea actually makes a lot of sense if you're building a hard core offroader. I had an '89 that was intended for the nasties trails that was lined. Black on the inside, red on the outside. Drain plugs in the floorpan. Pressure wash inside and out. The bedliners are incredibly...

Someone made their own cameras? Wow! That must have been quite a chore...

It's been done. But you're better off just trading it for a 4WD model.

Synthetic has been shown to be better in pretty much any application. The only exception I can think of would be an old school engine. Machining tolerances were looser, and the thicker oil can help keep drips to a minimum. Take a look at what manufacturers are doing. Full synthetics. Including...

You need to get and install a hyperflash resistor.

+1 for deleting the TPMS.

The G840S.

No. Not a Jeep. I have driven other brands though. I see no reason to think that those would do anything different to the pedal commander. Do you?

It doesn't, obviously. The context of the post you replied to was clear, I thought. I think things like pedal commander are pretty much useless. Building a more powerful engine is the answer.

Not really. It's also about not turning into a rolling road block. That may not be an issue if you're in the flatlands, but it certainly is in Colorado. I'd change "instead" to "as well"... I have a C5 making 850HP. You can have more than one toy. :)

We built two JKURs. I call them the Amazon builds because virtually everything I did was bought on Amazon. I used Hooke Road fenders and Vijay bumpers. They're great for light wheeling and inexpensive to replace if/when you crunch one. The JL is built with all Motobilt armor. It's about twice...

I have gotten quite a few from Tom Woods Driveshafts. Their order process walks you through exactly what numbers they need. I built a V8 YJ that had (from memory) a front drive shaft something like 14" long. They sent me a double cardan and despite the crazy short length, I never had any...

I'm not an overlander, because Mrs. Dog likes her comforts, so it's places with spas for us. All builds are about compromise. An overlanding build will, of necessity, result in limitations to your trail capability. Most overland builds result in mounting a lot of stuff on the top, which raises...

Thanks. Fixed it.
