    Jerry B would scold you endlessly for have such a small one... :p

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Did this. And then replaced the quarter century old windshield. It was sand blasted, pitted and impossible to see out of when in direct sun. Should have done this a long time ago

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    I love the size of the B&M shift knob. I just bought the same one in white.

    BFG KO2's on a daily driver (am I going to regret it?)

    I'm in no rush to change them. The plan was to replace the Falkens with enough tread left to sell them locally, but I can certainly hold out until February.

    New to me tires & wheels have created problems

    Tires aren't sticking out too far. Mine when I purchased it a few years ago.... I know it wasn't your question, but you went from 3.07 to 3.73 with the 33's and now are running 35's? I had 3.73's with 33's and an NV3550 (now an AX15) and it was an absolute dog. Kept the 33's and went to...

    1999 TJ Fox Shock Questions: 2.0 vs Adventure

    What tire pressure are your running? Preference will vary by load, ambient temps etc, but target 24-28 psi. I daily drive my 2000. Work is 40 miles a day, mostly highway at 65 - 70 mph. Rides like a dream. Better than I would have expected it to. I removed all the RC stuff installed by...

    Play in Interior Door Latch. Repair or Replace?

    Very possible you are correct and I am not.. Most of my door mods were a few years ago. Apologies for mis-directing you.

    Play in Interior Door Latch. Repair or Replace?

    You can unsnap that rod and move left or right to tighten or loosen the play in the interior lever. Then snap back in place. Also make sure the other end is clipped into the back of the lever assembly. That plastic clips break easily. Though, if the lever works but just has more play than...

    Play in Interior Door Latch. Repair or Replace?

    Here's a closeup of that rod end. It looks like it is threaded.. it is not. It's your adjustment point for the interior handle.

    Any fellow smokers here?

    Fit and Finish on the Slate is far better than any of the Blackstone griddles I have seen. The only regret I have is not getting the four burner. Not that I need four zones for a family of three, but why not.

    Any fellow smokers here?

    BTDT.. Maybe twice if I am telling the truth. I had resisted the griddle for a long time due to concerns with rust. I live on the open bay and salt air is an everyday thing. Spent a few days with family and there were a few griddles. They made breakfast, lunch and dinner on the Blackstone...

    Any fellow smokers here?

    I still have a 36" Lynx gasser, connected to house gas. It's old but it works just fine. Don't use it often. Rotisserie for sure.. can't beat never running out of gas. Maybe if I am in rush. Not much more. For years I chased the perfect sear on that gasser but it just doesn't get hot...

    Any fellow smokers here?

    One of my best ever mods

    The first one was done by a guy named Chris from LeatherGoods.com Pretty sure mine was the last one he did. A forum member is rocking it now. The second was done by our friend in Poland. Most easily found on eBay under the name aacarsaa. He typically doesn't do the early two spoke wheels...

    Talk about wind!

    I live on the water on the Great South Bay, on the south of Long Island. Our winds don't rival what @Chris is describing, but it's constant. So much so that as drive into our community all of the trees mature trees have a pronounced and easily visible, eerie lean to the north east due to the...

    The decline of restaurants and eating out

    Family night last evening for a birthday celebration and chose a great Sushi restaurant. There was a time when sushi places offered freshly washed and warmed soft cloth towels pre-meal. I always looked forward to this. Now it's a tiny, cold, individually wrapped, disposable wet-wipe...
