Just curious how this played out... Any updates?

My front driveshaft rzeppa joint went out but it started out as a strange noise just like you describe after I drove a few miles and would stop when braking firmly. I chased the brake system and suspension forever before realizing the boot had broken on the driveshaft. Initially I didnt realize...

When I got my Jeep the previous owner had installed a DV8 air flow style hood that was never coated properly. After a summer in Florida it was showing its age and starting to rust so it was time to refinish it. I live at almost 9000 feet and have been dying to do this all winter. It finally hit...

I was able to get out this weekend and do some early season camping for turkey season here in western Colorado. Its nice to get the rig finally dialed in.

Got my starlink mounted up and tested over the past couple weeks. I redid the wiring but wanted to make sure it worked through the freedom panels before mounting it permanently. Im averageing about 135 mbps up here in the mountains which I cant complain about at all. So nice to be able to...

I got them on amazon. Overall I like them but wish the allen key on the negative side was oriented correctly to tighten it without cutting down an allen key or turning the terminal to one side. You also have to modify or replace the existing wire connector to fit the new terminals which took me...

Finally did the old crusty battery terminals on the JKU today.

Nothing exciting but I've been putting it off forever. These crusty old battery terminals have been giving me hell for 2 years and I decided they had to go. What an upgrade over OEM style. The only complaint would be the allen key to tighten the new terminals is on the wrong side on the...

I actually love the combo. If you are rough on your gear or frequently have more than one person in the tent I would probably go with a rack with a backbone system rather than mounting to the rain drip rails. Ive had the rack and tent for over a year and used it a couple dozen times and...

The seat delete platform is made by springtail solutions and is made of aluminum. It bolts to the existing seat hardware without any modification to the jeep. I did place some boat deck foam on top of it to help with noise and stuff sliding around. The fridge is indeed mounted on a slide out...

Got my Pelican cargo case in the mail today. I will say these are much lighter than the normal pelican boxes I am used to but still quality built. Its almost a perfect size for the top shelf and still able to open most of the way. The Ecoflow will be mounted in the open space on the right...

Project for the day. I picked up and Ecoflow Delta 2 battery and solar panel setup on a black friday sale for super cheap and will be mounting it on the second slide out next to the fridge. The next couple days are sub zero temps around here so I am going to wait a bit for it to warm up before...

I will start by saying I mostly use my truck for moderate trail riding and overlanding, backcountry hunting, fly fishing, and camping. I live in western Colorado and see all types of weather and I put a lot of miles on my jeep as a daily driver so keeping things moderately tame and highway...

I run Duratracs in the winter. I have had bad experience with KO2's in the snow and ice and the duratracs are far superior in those conditions. My favorite all around tire is the Patagonia MT2s but cant find a true 35 17" in those.

Got some new shoes for summer. Mammoth D Window black steelies in 17x9 with a set of 35 x 12.50 Ironman MT's. Tried to go with something a little more budget friendly but still more capable than my winter Duratracs. I also recently put on a rough country roof rack with matching tent. Cant...

This ended up being the oil cooler / housing as expected. I had the local shop do a dorman replacement and it cost just at $1000 which is more than I anticipated but happy it wasnt something major.

I have developed a significant oil leak in my 2016 Jeep JKU over the past few weeks. Ive read a lot on the forums and looks like the typical oil filter housing but I cant be sure. Would it cause this much oil to drain on the back of the engine and transmission like this with only a small...
