    I am not looking for any overland gear, was only interested in how @JeepJeezy did the support for his mattress.

    Newbie wanting overland build advice

    Thanks for the thoughts. We have a A-Frame camper we use for the typical camping. I’m trying to decide what to do for one nighters. Our club will wheel in one day and wheel back out the next day. A good example is our club maintains Barrett Lake trail. They wheel in one day doing...

    Horn honks 3 times when ignition moved to run

    Thanks. I have no idea why it makes me leery. I’ll have to give it shot since they currently disconnected as we’ve been working on his jeep. They weren’t but he left the key in the ignition and I go out the next morning and hear “click, click, click” etc. it drained the battery and one the...

    S Thank you. I like how you supported the portion over the rear seats. I assume that portion is completely removed when not in use? It doesn’t look like you have it folding over onto the rear cargo area.

    Pictures of the platform / sleeping area? Been thinking about options for trips we might want to head up the night before hitting the trail.

    Horn honks 3 times when ignition moved to run

    I don’t know why, but I am leery of doing this. My son’s Jeep has two lights on the dash, if I recall correctly one is the double snake lines and the abs light. If I recall correctly the only way to fix it is to take it to the dealer, or try resetting the ECM by touching the two cables...

    Might buy my first JK

    I hate them too!! Can take forever to track down and I’m not very good at it. Knock on wood, not a single electrical issue so far. I am ready for the PCM to go some day though.

    Might buy my first JK

    Do you know if the 100,000 maintenance was done? At that mileage the plugs should have been changed, and I recommend the ignition coils to be replaced (could be the cause of the misfire codes) also the coolant system should have been flushed. Do you know if the oil cooler has been replaced...

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Yikes! How do you keep the shavings from dropping into the cylinder? Or is it dismantled?

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Not sure I would either. Her ceiling is that old “popcorn / spray acoustic” stuff so sort of hard to roll paint it.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    It worked great when I bought it. I said “this thing is amazing!” But paint sprayers seem to be one of those tools you put away and two years later go to use it and it doesn’t work. Of course my previous ones were cheap Wagners, maybe that’s why. That said it worked amazingly again! I think...

    Got the boy’s new steering gear box and tie rod assembly in today. The right tools sure help the job go smoother. Still have the new radiator to install but he had to go to work. I’m off to spray paint my sister’s ceilings now. I’m getting too old for these long days 😂. Hoping the Graco...

    Does AndyG know you are talking about him?

    What did you do to your JK today?

    It’s certainly doable by yourself. I agree though need a long bar of some sort to get the needed leverage.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    I can’t say too much as we have a JT. It pulls the camper nicely. Also pulled our son’s JKU on a flatbed Tuesday from Lake Tahoe. It did pretty good but I’m sure it was at the limit for its capacity.

    Sorry to hear that. Hopefully he is doing better.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    That is a good time to go. One time I was putting a suspension lift on the JKU and couldn’t get the right socket to use my 1/2” torque wrench on the driveshaft bolts. It was 8:30 at night headed to HF to get 3/8” only to realize they were closed, then had to go to Lowes’s and picked a...
