    Arizona Trail this Saturday 10/22?

    Looking to run a trail on Saturday and was wondering if anyone wanted to join. Don't like going out by myself and am interested in meeting some new people. Open to suggestions for the trail. Would like to meet around 9am. I'm not running rock sliders yet so not too difficult. :bummed: Thanks!

    What was done to your rig this week?

    Installed a couple of Wayalife decals. Now I got serious off-road cred. 😉

    Cool Jeeps you've parked by

    Where did your Jeep take You this Week?

    Myself and a couple of friends ran the Telegraph Canyon Trail yesterday. This trail starts near Superior, AZ and ends up closer to Florence, AZ. This trail is one of my favorites for the moderately challenging terrain and spectacular views. Mother nature has taken its toll on the trail this...

    Installing the Rock Krawler lift necessitated removing the transmission skid plate. The lift causes the front drive shaft to hit it. I wasn't comfortable running without the skid so on advice from the offroad shop I purchased a Skid Row skid plate (3/16" plate) which protects the transmission...

    Detroit locker in front axle

    If a Detroit locker was installed in a front axle, does it remain unlocked when in 2wd? Had this debate with some buddies the other night and none of us were completely sure. Thanks

    Installed the Rock Krawler sway bar straps that came with my Rock Krawler lift kit. The shop that installed the lift kit deals a ton with Rock Krawler and that's their lift of choice. However, he thought these new straps were kind of cheesy. He recommended disconnecting only one side and zip...

    Wheel locks

    What do you guys recommend for wheel locks? Although I'm mainly concerned about the spare, I figure a set of 5 might not be a bad idea. Thanks!

    Finally got my Rock Krawler 3.5" lift installed! I was able to get the new 'Max Travel' updated kit with progressive rate springs and updated control arms. I also added a set of Bilstein 5100 shocks. The ride is noticeably improved on the road and it seems to soak up the bumps better off...

    AZMikeD's LJ Build Thread

    It's been a while since I've updated this thread, because I haven't done anything major to the Jeep. Catching up on a lot of maintenance items but managed to catch a few pics of some of the mods I've added to the Jeep. My next mod will be much more exciting, can't wait for it to finally get...

    FS: Alpine SPS-510 5 1/4" Speakers

    I recently purchased four new 5 1/4" speakers for my Jeep and didn't realize a previous owner had already swapped out the rear speakers with these Alpines (the fronts were still the horrible stock 4x6's). I swapped the rears any way so all four match. If anyone is interested in the Alpine's...

    MERRY JEEPIN CHRISTMAS from your friends at WAYALIFE!

    Merry Christmas! My awesome Aunt got me a couple things for the Jeep. Some new LED flood lights for my front bumper light bar which was installed when I bought the car with no lights. Plus a safari hat to keep the sun off of my head in the Arizona Summers. Not really for the Jeep but my wife...

    I mounted 2015 Rubicon wheels to my LJ a couple of weeks ago. Been meaning to post but life happens. I picked them up from ORE. A fun road trip from AZ! I got to spend some "quality" time with the new Jeep. Thanks to SaddleTramp for selling me the wheels. Good luck with your new build...

    Jeep LJ Rear Seat Belt Buckles

    Jeep LJ/TJ Rear Seat Belt Buckles I am looking for the rear seat belt buckles for my 2006 LJ. These would have attached to the floor behind the rear seat (see link to pic below). A previous owner replaced the carpet and they are missing. Perhaps a TJ owner ditched their rear seat and have...

    SOCAL Saturday, September 5th?

    I will be driving out to Fullerton, CA from Phoenix on Friday September 4th to pick up some wheels from ORE (Thanks SaddleTramp!). I will be spending the night in Fullerton before driving home on Saturday. Thought it would be cool to check out an easy to moderate trail on the way home Saturday...

    Friday 8/28/15 Desoto Mine Trail Arizona

    A tiny bit of collateral damage coming off a steep hump. Bent the trailer wiring bracket and cracked it a little bit. Think I'll try mounting this flush in to the bumper instead. I hit the end of the tow bar, too. Nothing a new tow bumper won't fix. ;)

    Coolant Splat under Hood

    Got back from wheeling today (first time on a decent trail with the new LJ) and found this under the hood. It appears to have come out of an opening on the back of the coolant reservoir. I'm assuming it's an overflow and the coolant may have just been a bit overfilled. Any thing to worry...
