    Jeep Stretch YJ "Might as well" Build

    A couple of years ago I bought a TJ to get into the Offroad scene. It's been a lot of fun, but it's a rather small vehicle for my family and our gear, also the wheelbase doesn't seem ideal for our Offroad adventures. I found myself looking at LJ's and JKU's and the extra room they offer. I...

    Opinions on truss for 05'+ SD Dana 60

Artec offers two truss options for this axle, a high profile as well as a low profile. Both trusses options can be fitted with full hydro mount. Any opinions on the advantages of one...

    Opinions on gearing?

    Looking for some opinions... Yesterday we tore into the front axle going under my low budget build (not sure I can rightfully refer to it as a "build" because nothing's happening), the 4.10 gears are trashed. So I have a gear decision to make, unfortunately decisions that cost $$$ are not my...

    Experience with Torq Locker?

    Has anyone here ran the Torq locker (1-ton version of Aussie) in thier front 60? Looks to be slightly different design from the typical lunchbox. I read somewhere there's no tire size limit on the 2-year warranty. How about a Lock-Right or Spartan in a 60, will they hold up? Is one better...
