I have to ride solo, none of my friends seem to have to desire to ride bikes other than ripping around a gravel pit. They get nervous at the notion of even heading out30 or 40 miles away from home...

My new bike, 05 F650GS Dakar with 5300 miles, just picked it up.

Also just picked up an 07 Suziki DR200 for the wife.

And my 04 XR250R for when I want to have some fun in...

I've been watching the adv forums and managaged to snag an almost new set of Icon Brawnson Textile Motorcycle Overpant and AGV Sport Excursion Kevlar Cargo Pant for $100 shipped for both. They both...

I started hanging out on the adv forum lurking for deals on jackets or recomendations. It seems they have the more expensive is automatically better philosopy. I'm looking for a good quality jacket...

Make sure your shocks do not limit your suspension travel, you will ruin them if they do. Like previously mentioned you need limit straps to control the amount of suspension droop, its also...

Same u-joints between the d50 and D60 as far as I know, I just did a set on a 2000 F250 not long ago and I can tell you they are not tiny D44 joints or shafts. Basically its identical to a D60 with...

Well, I asked for the dimensions to see it it would fit in my army trailer, and it did but just barely. I'll have to make some small mods to the trailer to get it to fit in there better. I'd like...

There is not real difference between the f250/f350 or the Dodge 2500/3500 besides the GVWR and perhaps an overload spring... Its really a moot point deciding between the 2, I would not hold out for...

The 08 even rides pretty good with the camper, gear, and airing down the 37's to 25psi. I've gotten several things from GL at Fort McCoy in Sparta, WI. But the trucks and blazers are getting hard...

My new "expo" setup. I picked up this 08 from GL a few months back and pretty much only changed or topped off oil and fluids. Its far from perfect but everything works and it runs and drives pretty...

1984 M1008A1, 6.2L Detroit diesel, TH400, NP208, D60 front, 14bolt rear with Detroit locker and 4.56 gears, a little trimming up front and 37x15.50 Toyo's.

I picked up a M1008A1 from Sparta a couple months ago, no problem titling it in MI with the SF97, to bad to hear about WI. I am looking to turn it into a short overland/tow vehicle. I'm...

I pushed the axle ahead 2" or so on my MJ to keep the tires out of the back of the wheel well when flexed out, and i'm running a 4.5" lift and 38's :)

You could flip your rear springs around for a...

I could care less about jeeps getting a diesel option. They will be priced at the point you will need a six figure salary to get in one. That puts it out of reach of most people.

Pretty subjective issues being brought up really. I had a 2000 xj and it road and drove as good as any other 4wds i've owned. The big issue is they tend to be a bit cramped if your tall, but I was...

Looks pretty clean! I love how the MJ's look inside and out, I don't think I could ever bring myself to "upgrade" it to the newer sheetmetal and interior. Newer drivetrain though, hell yeah!

So nice, I wish I had the money to do that to my TJ. I would probably do it very similar to yours, except I'm not a fan of the highline fenders.

What do you plan on doing with it? Street Jeep? ...

I have used Rubicon Express in the past and have been happy with how it turned out, the shocks seem to be a big factor in the ride quality. My TJ used to run 3.5" RE coils and OME shocks and I...

Rant on:

Yes, IFS can be made to work really well. But its so much cheaper to build a solid axle rig that works even better. I currently own an 05 WK, it rides poor, flexes badly, and is...

Jeep made all kinds of vehicles back in the day, 1/2 ton and 3/4 trucks, wagons, forward controls to name a few. It would be great so see Jeep get back into the truck market. Hell, the newest Jeep...

New pics of my Jeeps, since we all like pics.

The TJ at the Iron Range OHV area in Gilbert, MN last weekend...

For me it was that the rope is just so much easier to use. You can pull the rope out and it doesn't coil up on the ground like the cable does. Its lighter and easier to pull out when you have to...

I wouldn't say running out but I've been in a few situations trying to find some 15" tires for my car hauler in an emergency and not being able to find a suitable 15" trailer tire in stock and having...

I've had a few sets of BFG A/T's, never bought new just happened to be on the vehicle I purchased at the time. At first they are great, but after they wear a little bit they get loud and even with...

BB, 265/70's, spare tire carrier made 1 day before a 600 mile trip across the UP of MI for $10....
