Sure. Went out and took a few for you. These should work for now. As installed. Everything's 3/16" steel. Nice surface finish. If you look down the length, you'll see there's at least an inch between body and rail all the way along. There are zero fasteners going to the tub. Couple shots...

Hi: I want to secure my ARB 50qt fridge to the tray, using bolts through the feet. I've not been successful in finding what thread is used. Anyone have input on the bolt thread and recommended length, if securing via the feet to the ARB tray? Much appreciated.

Had to laugh. Doing some research involving ARB fridges, I came across: "Oh no the power light just went from green to yellow someone help me!" and, "...overwhelmed with ARB fridge. Please help me..." Just goes to show, we all have our personal issues :)

Decided it was time to try doing some sound deadening in Stitch. If you ever remove the carpet from your JK, what you find is near-zero sound deadening material. There's a few small pieces, wafer-thin, where your feet go front and rear (JKU), and on the rear deck. You can see some under the...

Took care of my front axles seals over the weekend. Had a few observations I'd share, which might be of use to others. * Some folks have to work harder than others to get their diff carrier in/out. Going through a tech manual, I find there is actually a tool, a spreader, intended to be used...

Swinging Freely in the Wind Again. Great Feeling ...my doors, of course. What were you thinking? For those that aren't exposed to northern winters much, this is what I face about this time each year. With the burst of warmer weather we had, things got really bad last week. Took about a 5lb...

Yeah. Me neither. But now we know. Trash guys won't take 'automotive parts.' So I sectioned the sucker, put it in a trash bag. Easy-peazy. And, that is what the cross section looks like all the way across the rear. Figure that's good for about a 0.5MPH impact. With a kid's tricycle. Makes a...

Howdy Folks, A quick search of the forum didn't reveal anything obvious. If there's a link, feel free to tell me where to go<g>. Stitch is a '15 JKU. I have chronic problems keeping the hinges working smoothly. At least every six months I -must- remove the doors, so i can clean the pins...

It's rare to have any pictures of 'me,' since normally I'm the one taking group pics. So I really appreciated Tom Patterson taking some shots of my wife and I at last month's event in northern-lower Michigan. Most of us got to use a snatch strap along the way. And, a number of us had a Go...

Pt 2. Need a meme for these fine guys. They were having a blast, even though the u-boat commander was freezing his arms off lacing a strap around his tow hitch. Under the (until he drove into it) previously iced-over mud bog. Thanked him for taking his turn at providing the morning's...

Howdy, This season's been a great year for us with Stitch. Certainly an incredibly busy one. For me, I've done at least one personal trip every month for the last 6 months. If I wasn't traveling, I was getting ready to. Or, getting Stitch ready to. Going way back, we started the year near St...

Howdy, I'd like to thank you for your inputs. Been buried last few days, just now getting back to this. Turns out some of your comments came even as I was tackling the issue. Yep, this is basically what my experience was like. Fortunately I had an impact wrench. Those were 8 long stiff...

Friday, Mackinac City Sun's coming up, lighting the bridge. In hindsight, wish I'd gotten out there about :45 earlier. Alas, I was tired the night before and not thinking about sunrises. Turning about 130deg to my right, the Sun rise that's lighting the bridge. Sunday, Escanaba, Michigan

Howdy, My wife and I have been considering stowage options for our upcoming 2 week trip in Stitch, a '15 JKU Rubicon. For this trip, I'm considering simply removing the rear seat altogether. There are some pre-12 videos of folks removing seats. Haven't seen anything for '12 to 18 JKUs. Does...

...to, Escanaba, Michigan. Went northward to take a DNR ORV safety instructor certification course. Michigan DNR offers the course 2x year to about 20 folks per. Of about 4,000 certified instructors across all disciplines (Marine, Hunting, Snowmobile, and ORV), there are only about 400 for...

Howdy, Last year, I bought a pair of EVO sway bar end links. This year, one moves freely. Grab with your hand and you can easily twist it back 'n forth. The other, I need to use a pair of channel locks and WD-40 to get it to pivot. Squeaks occasionally as well. Anyone have this occur to...

My brother in Austin, shared this with me today. What's wrong with this picture? You'll laugh when you see it :).

Howdy, I suspect the answer is, Yes. However on the chance it's No, thought I'd ask. Stitch is a '15 JKU Rubicon w/57K, running an EVO leveling lift. He's developed a case of steering pull toward the left. 0-50, basically neutral. Go past 50 MPH, it gets pretty healthy by 75MPH. Need a...

Howdy, Finally installing our new ARB fridge, I noted the Made in China sticker. Which then caused me to think, in case folks hadn’t thought about it yet... If you’re thinking about buying a lot of things...such ARB components made in China (like a Fridge)...and have been dragging your feet...
