I’ve recently purchased (staff price through work) a Ramsey Patriot 9500 UT, and installed it. I’m very happy with the winch so far, but I haven’t had a chance to wheel with it yet.
- It comes with a wireless remote. You install a small module and antenna under the hood, and run a plug out [...]

I have removed the forums. I’ve struggled for quite some time to keep the spamming under control, but without a few moderators on staff to help me out, it’s just not worth the hassle. There are plenty or good (better) alternatives out there for you to use, so having a forum here just doesn’t seem [...]

In every wheelers life, there will come a time when you need or want new tires. Or maybe you got new wheels, either way you’re looking at a fairly hefty bill to get them put on for you. A tire shop usually charges around $25/tire for mounting and balancing. I decided to try and do [...]

Just a quick note. I upgraded to a set of used 33×12.5×15 BFG Mud Terrains last weekend. I picked up 4 of them for $300 used from a friend in the club. They fit well under the budget boost, and they have about 70-80% tread left. Thanks again for the great deal Chado!
I installed them [...]

Not too long ago there was a company called Nth Degree Mobility. You probably know who I’m talking about. The guy that ran the company worked at Chrysler for 9 years as a suspension engineer, and has two engineering degrees. Suffice to say he knows a little about our Jeeps. Despite the credentials and the [...]

If you live in a cold climate in the frigid northern reaches of Canada like I do, you may have experienced some issues with your shifter being stiff in the winter. It might even pop out of gear due to the rubber shifter boot becoming quite stiff. This mod is for you! I did this [...]

Ok, lets get the important stuff out of the way first. I put “hummer” in the title of the article for search reasons, but I don’t want to taint my site too much with that brand, so I’ll refer to it from here on to a Cowl Snorkle. :) littletj on the EJC site was [...]

I’ve completed my front bumper. All that’s left to do is drill holes to mount the winch once I figure out what winch I will be using, and paint it.
The bumper is made from 3/16″ 44W steel. The top plate/winch plate is 1/4″ 44W steel. The clevis tabs are 1″ QT100 plate, and they have [...]

I finished up my custom made rockers yesterday. 6 months (maybe more) in the making. Not because they are really that difficult, but just because I didn’t put effort into them each day until they were done like I should have. I mostly let them sit around at the shop. They turned out really good, [...]

For those of you that are into wheeling (and I expect that you are if you’re at this site reading about Jeeps), you probably already know the importance a locker can play in your off-road adventures. I wasn’t planning on locking my dana 35 rear axle, but a deal came a long I couldn’t pass [...]
