    DYNATRAC SAFETY RECALL on 1550 Steering Knuckles

    I've been going to the same shop for 10 years now. They always take care of me even though I'm not a big-build or buying one of their Red Dot buggies. The JK they did before mine was a much nicer big-horsepower build. I asked them to just do what they did to it. Probably faster for them anyway...

    DYNATRAC SAFETY RECALL on 1550 Steering Knuckles

    Thank you for spreading the word! Purchase Date: Feb 2018 Going to need to dig through the Jeep's paperwork box to get the Axle Serial number off the warranty cards. The Truss covers that area up. Email sent today. I'll post up what I hear back. Thanks again!

    What stereo receiver are you using?

    Stereo guy I went to told me to pick any one of the Pioneer NEX units. I chose the Pioneer 4500NEX for my 2009, which doesn't have navigation, but I get that from my phone wired and wireless. Previously I had a single-din Kenwood deck over a cobra CB unit. It was great, but after wireless...

    Best half door and soft upper option?

    I bought a set of Core Doors and Bestop's uppers around this time last year. I used them a few days and never put them back on. Sold them a month later when I realized they just aren't what I wanted. The doors are well made and I think they did a great job overall. I enjoyed having half...

    Rock Light Advice

    I'm on my second set of LUX lights. I originally ran their Max series in White from 2016 to 2019, and last year I swapped them for 8 RGB MONSTERS with the control box for the app on my phone. (I bought 12, but had a couple bad lights) RGB lights are plenty bright, but not as bright as a...

    What was done to your rig this week?

    Getting ready for EJS. :rock: Finally getting around to a new head unit and replacing the 12 year old factory speakers. On the suggestion of the installer, I went with a Pioneer NEX4500, JL amp and speakers, and custom boxes for 12” subs. They’re installing the Trektop NX Glide so the tower...

    HELP NEEDED : mysterious Chinese head unit

    From what I can find, that unit looks like it is (or was) marketed in South America. Its a knock-off only in that it looks like the MyGig units, but runs some sort of Andriod-like operating system and it fits early model JK wranglers. You'll likely need to set it up as if it were any other...

    PRP premier / daily driver seats

    I've got the PRP Summit Elite models installed in my JK and they're great. They seem to be pretty comfortable with all my friends who've ridden in the Jeep. Having so many options, then options within the seats is great, but also makes it hard to choose. I chose these cause I wanted to stay...

    What was done to your rig this week?

    Had the jeep in the shop for fluid change and good once over before it goes back in to storage. I picked up the Genright quick disconnect steering wheel kit and so far I dig it. It was not a plug-and-play instal as some modification and fabrication was required for the unit for it to fit on my...

    Watcha cookin'?

    Out of boredom and curiosity, I bought a Soux Vide cooker off Amazon and playing with it. It takes a while, but it churns out some good steaks and chicken. 1. Season with Salt, Pepper, Garlic and some truffle butter. Drop in a ZipLock bag and use the water to work the air out before sealing...

    Tow rigs

    Damn thats a good looking setup! I dig it! I think I have my heart set on a 22'-24' PJ Trailer B6 car-haular gooseneck when the time comes. On a side note. I got some pics from the detailer. Paint Correction and ceramic coat has started and clear bra should be started Tuesday.

    Tow rigs

    For EJS this year I borrowed a 38" lowboy gooseneck and hauled two jeeps in my pop's '04 Chevy 3500 Duramax. Those inclines between Phoenix and flagstaff were a game between keeping speed and keeping the transmission temp down. Often plummeting to 20-25mph. It was stressful and slow going, but...

    JK Tailgate replace

    My son accidentally smacked into my buddy's jeep on the trail. After getting a price for a MOPAR tailgate from my go-to parts dept., I then called several body shops on quotes to paint it. Unfortunately, not a single one would give me a good quote unless I brought the tailgate (and the Jeep)...

    JEEP TRAIL OFFROAD GPS: What GPS is everyone running?

    These are the 5 I know of (had this list saved, the prices may have since changed.) I was torn between the Bad Elf Pro and the Dual XGPS150A. I bought the Dual simply because it was half the price. Seemed to work okay, but shortly after I started using it I bought a New iPad mini with the...

    JEEP TRAIL OFFROAD GPS: What GPS is everyone running?

    Yes. I was using MotionX in my iPad Mini. I still use it once in a while on evening trips. My mount and case doesn't provide adequate airflow to keep it cool during hot days exposed to sunlight.

    JEEP TRAIL OFFROAD GPS: What GPS is everyone running?

    I looked into one of these and using my iPad as well. Lots of info out there in expedition groups. However, I changed my mind after taking my iPad with me on a couple runs (for music.) With the top down and doors off, it gets too hot. Slows down, battery dies faster, hard to see, and gets...
