My wife and I need to go to Pilot Hill CA in a couple weeks to pick something up, I figured this would be a great excuse to use the truck bed camper for the first time. Below is what I'm thinking; day 1 get to Reno, day 2 go to Pilot Hill and then to Elko, day 3 and shorter drive back home...

The bed of my project truck has several golfball-ish sized dents along the top, any advice on cleaning it up? I can't reach it from the inside, so I was thinking a stud welder/puller followed by hammering it down straight as I can, then finish it with hopefully a small amount of filler during...

Excited about the snow, not so excited about the tree falling on my house... I thought it was healthy, but i guess what do I know ha. Anyone have any recommendations for who to call/pay to chop it up and take it away? Located in North Ogden. I need it gone in the next few days as I'm heading...

I've been eying a SWAG finger brake for a while and finally pulled the trigger. I also picked up some gooseneck dies. The MJ has been a great project to learn on and the first thing I want to try and make is an offset axle side track bar mount, I stole these pictures from @Greg's TJ build...

So I gave this a shot - dropped of a stripped down dirty, greasy, surface rusted (though not terrible shape) 1997 hp Dana 30 to a local shop to be bead blasted. I plan to use the factory coil brackets and what not and there was no way I could reach everything with a wire wheel. I could have...

Need an opinion on ring and pinion (mic drop)... I've noticed you can drive yourself crazy with this process, so I'm looking for feedback. This is my 3rd attempt on a ford 8.8, current backlash is 0.010" (middle of spec, new gears), and this is the pattern. I tried pinion deeper and shallower...

Last summer the central AC in my home started freezing up. My furnace is 32 years old and the outdoor AC unit is 22 years old! So I'm looking to replace both. I've gotten a couple quotes from businesses I found off Google and was suprised at the price, it seems that labor is about half the...

I bought a house a couple years ago and with the house came a shop which I've very much enjoyed, but I'm tired of freezing my butt off in the winter. The building is 32' wide x 34' deep x ~24' tall, stick built, corrugated roofing and siding, with no insulation. Previous owners just used it as...

Yesterday morning my girlfriend said, "Let's go on a hike to see the fall colors!" I'm not much of a hiker... So we made a compromise, loaded up the buggy, and headed up to Avon Pass Road just outside of Eden. It was a fairly chilly morning but got to see some really cool colors, especially...

On a separate thread @mbryson and myself teased the idea of a Snakes/5 Mile Pass Run, I'm starting this thread to make it official. The weather is supposed to be beautiful on Saturday, I'm thinking an early-ish morning wheeling trip that lets us get home at a reasonable time. I'd like to run...

So last minute... my bad, but is there any interest in running Hanging Tree this weekend?! I'm open to either Saturday or Sunday (13th, 14th), and thinking a morning run starting ~9ish. I've never ran the trail before, so I'm hoping someone familiar is interested. Or I could be open to...

Any interest in hitting up Little Moab this Saturday?

So I've recently finished modifying my buggy and am looking to do a day trip shakedown run. I know there is already an RME crew doing a Nine Mile Canyon trip on March 28th. Anyone interested in doing a day trip to 5 Mile Pass/Snakes or Little Moab? I'd be down to go this weekend if possible...

This is Manch. It's a 1990 Jeep Comanche; 4.0 (Renix), AX-15, NP231, shortbed, with a kick ass camo(?) paint job... I'd been looking for some time for a small, fun, 4x4 to use as a daily driver/back road and mountain road explorer/mild-ish wheeling rig. I wanted something fairly capable...

Has anyone ever ran this trail? Stumbled across it online and it looks like a good time. Kind of reminds me of Coyote Canyon or something along those lines, short but technical. Are there additional trails around this area that'd make it worth a long weekend trip?

Well, I've put this off for quite some time but I'm finally getting around to starting a thread for my buggy. First, the introduction. One of the reasons I'm starting this thread is I'm getting ready to redo the suspension. Throughout my research I actually stumbled across the original build...

I'm considering getting a couple two piece drive shafts from Tom Woods Custom Drive Shafts; I'm looking for advice/opinions/experiences/etc. on the topic to make sure it's the route I want to go before I invest the money. Currently I have single piece drive shafts front and rear but both...

First off, I'm brand new to RME so hello everyone. So I have friends here in Utah (I promise I'm not a crazy person) but none that go rock crawling... yet. I brought my buggy out here from Colorado this winter and I'm looking for a group/a club/someone to wheel with. I'm looking for a...
