Ok, I am back from the hammers, and it was a good trip. Now that I am home, it is weird, the rise and hype of the event and the craziness of getting ready and prepping and now it's kind of a big letdown. I usually don't feel this way after a trip, but I do. Anyways, wheeling was a little sparse...

The coverage gets better and better each year. Those Maverick R's are impressive. I truly wonder what they have in them over and above stock. We took my friend's uncle to the rubicon last year and his Maverik R didn't fare well. He broke a locker, had significant damage to the Can am aftermarket...

Another issue with the 4l80 is that the 1st gear ratio is higher than the 4l60E. So it will make the 3.7L feel even slower. Overdrive is lower so that might be nicer at highway speeds.

Yes, I was around many JKs when they JK was new. Bent axle tubes, broken R&P's, broken shafts were common. The JL axle is a big improvement from what I have seen. There is a lot that goes into R&P design. Contact patch being one of them and pinon offset. The ford 9in does well due to pinion to...

I wouldn't waste your time with JK Axles...or just go to a D60. The 392 didn't come in JK axles and the JK axles are weaker than the JL axles

I did a nice and quick 70-80 mile loop of highway and snow wheeling on New years day. We finally got snow in the valley which is late this season so we knew snow would be had in the mtns. If I wasn't up so late and had a plan before New Years day I would have gotten up early and gone for the...

got my new arm built on the pass side. Then drove it over to my parents house. Got the 42s mounted!!! So….sway bar! It works (for now, we will see if it breaks like mentioned) It definitely settles things down for on road driving. If you really hammer on it, like snow drifting, it...

Alright, this is a rabbit hole I have gone down too far. Sway bars. I have almost 50k miles on the SAS. That’s wild to think about but I have plenty of data now. Most of that time is with no front sway bar/no rear sway bar or no front sway bar/ just a rear bar. Linked up front and leaf spring...

I wanted to share this video that I got from earlier this year when I was rock crawling. I think this sums up why I did everything I did to my H3. Hybrid Roll cage, it protects the body just as much as it protects me from a roll over. You can see I use it like you use rock sliders. Big tires...

Worn out bushings? Or some mounting bracket got tweaked

I’ll message Gpcalero on social media. Sorry for the BS you are dealing with Dave.

Well, another year has come and gone. What the hell. 2024. Let's get to it. Mods: Honestly, I did not do many major mods, it was a heavy year for major mods in 2023 so I felt 2024 revolved around refinement of those modifications and some beautification. -Rear sway bar, I can live the...

That makes no sense

I exploded 4 front diffs with the I5. It will not live.

Who is it?

Hey Craig, I am so sorry to hear that. I hope that with modern medicine things will not get any worse. I will always cherish the memories we had at Last Chance Canyon and big bear. The H4O/BSHS (or CHO back in the days) took me under their wing and it is something I will always appreciate. You...

Maybe? That could be it, I just know I have been on steeper climbs before and it never put me in limp mode. I did change up some trans tuning and with that I changed my base trans file from a a yukon Denali to a silverado. Maybe that could do it? I will throw my old tune back in and replicate...

You can see in the tire picture I already scraped the fenders. :mad: I just fixed them tonight, put on the full doors for winter and then raptor line'd the door part of the rear fenders (since I have a set for the half doors and the full doors) I also adjusted all the mounts so the fenders...

You posted before my next post. It is time to make squeaky look fresh again. I am not done but it is time.

If you are reading this, go up one post as I have 2 new posts. Anyways, squeaky is looking a little rough these days. There is no doubt about it. It has been put in places no H3 belongs and I have the scars because of that. So I think it is time for a little refresh. I have spare fenders I got...
