    Wilderness: The Great Debate

    Any of you see this program? It aired on KUED last week. If you missed it, you can watch it on line at http://www.kued.org/productions/wilderness/watch.php. It's supposed to be unbiased I think, but it sure didn't come across that way to me. It mostly just pissed me off. In the program...

    tire rod end?

    The tie rod on my YJ is one that was custom made by the defunct RockLogic. One of the tie rod ends is worn out and it turns out that it's not a stock jeep TRE. I'm not sure how to go about figuring out what part# I need. Russ at Russ' Alignment couldn't match it up with any Moog number. It is a...

    looking for feedback on my website

    I recently finished a web application/site that I created for the purpose of hosting people's trip reports. I designed it to make it easy to create reports with a map, photos, track log and waypoints. You simply upload the track log and photos and the website creates a google map for your report...

    Dana 30 Caster Correction

    Has anybody here ever adjusted the caster on a Dana 30 by removing the knuckles and rotating them and welding them back on? I'm curious how it went. After lifting my Jeep and correcting the pinion angle my caster is going to be +2 degrees. Before it was 6. I'm pretty sure I will notice the...

    Maxx Alternators

    Anybody ever use one of these. They are cheap and come in a variety of sizes from oem to 160 amp. They even have some 200 amp units. It seems too cheap to be very good. Here's the website...

    San Juans Road Conditions?

    I'm heading to the San Juans in 2 weeks. According to some Ouray website, all the trails I'm interested in doing are still closed. I can't believe thats right. I'm planning on doing Black Bear Pass, Governor Basin and Poughkeepsie Gulch. Has anyone been there this summer yet?

    Days Inn Moab

    OK listen up! I recently made a motel reservation for Days Inn in Moab at their online reservation center (website) for Feb 2 and 3. That Monday my wife was really not wanting to go, so I called to cancel the reservation. They told me they "could not" cancel my reservation because I prepaid...

    Rear brakes

    Recently I replaced my rear Dana 35 on my Wrangler with a Dana 44. The new axle has 10" drum brakes which are bigger than the ones on the 35. Anytime, I have to stop suddenly or on slippery surfaces, the rear brakes will lock up on me. Obviously these brakes are overkill. What I'm wondering is...

    web page ad rates

    So what is the going rate for web page ads like on the top of this one. Do you usually charge by month, year, or other? I have some wanting to place a small text ad with a link on my web site and I'm not sure what's a fair amount.

    Dugway Range

    My wife and I took the senic route home from the Delta this weekend. First, we stopped off at Baker Hotspring. Then, we drove on the east side of Topaz Mtn through Spor Canyon where there are a whole bunch of mines. It's really interesting geology too, and senic. I've been wanting to go to the...

    Dolores Triangle

    I just got back from Moab from doing the Dolores Triangle camp out trip with the Red Rock 4 Wheelers Club. It basically started just north of Gateway Colorado and went probably 90 miles of almost never traveled back roads until we ended up at Dewey Bridge. We camped out on Steamboat Mesa. It was...

    Publishing Trail Locations

    There seems to be different opinions on whether or not we should publisize certain trails. There are a bunch of trails in Utah that are published in books and websites and, there are trails that are not. These trails seem to be sort a local's secret. For instance, at some of the U4DWA trail...

    I'm going on a Jeep Safari

    So, excuse me while I sound like an idiot. But, I'm officially registered to go on an overnight campout trip on the Labor weekend with the Red Rock 4 Wheelers. This is my first time with the Red Rock folks. I'm doing the Delores Triangle. I have no idea what that is except it is south of the...

    Thread sealant for OBA

    Has anyone found a good thread sealant for onboard air fittings? Permatex seems to have some products. Finding a place that carries them is not so simple. I read somewhere someone used Locktite.

    Body Lift

    For anybody interested in adding a body lift to a Wrangler, here's a report on what I did. I know this is pretty basic info for you oldtimers. But it might be helpful for the less experienced folks like me. I just did a body lift this weekend on my 93 YJ. I ended up using 2 kits, the Daystar...

    Jeep Headers

    I have to replace my cracked exhaust manifold on my 93 Wrangler (4.0). So, the obvious thing is to get a decent header for it. I'm thinking of getting an Edelbrock because the price is somewhat reasonble. Borla's are supposed to be good too but they are 100 bucks more. Anyway, I'm concerned...
