    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    I flooded my Rubicon. I did a water crossing that was easy last year but it was deeper after 18 hours of downpour. I removed all of the carpeting, dried & vacuumed everything. I sprayed a generous amount of WD40 on everything so any water that I missed should be a non issue. I tried to use this...

    New winch for my JKU Recon

    It's probably about 125 lbs all said & done with the in frame winch plate. It was a really tight fit to get the nuts started on the inside of the bumper with the winch plate blocking access to them.

    New winch for my JKU Recon

    Here it is installed. I think I'm going to drill a 3/4" hole in the passenger side of it to route the cables away from the grill.

    Another GC followed me home

    The WK2's 9 speed auto trans really gives the 3.6 a different power.

    New winch for my JKU Recon

    I watch Matt's Off Road Recovery and Fab Rats and a bunch of others that use them a LOT more than I will.

    New winch for my JKU Recon

    I'll be going to Southington Off Road on 4/1 to be a fool and get stuck. I'll have both kids with me to record all of my questionable decisions...

    I went with synthetic, it was only about $50 more.

    2018 WK2 Altitude for Momma Bear. I tried to talk her into a Trailhawk but she wasn't having it.

    New winch for my JKU Recon

    I have a bag of recovery stuff from my last Jeep & that has a tree saver, some tow straps and shackles in it. I'm thinking about adding a kinetic rope to it.

    New winch for my JKU Recon

    I got the ok to get a winch for the Jeep. I grabbed the Badlands Apex 12,000. Now I'm just waiting on better weather to make my kids (10m & 18f) install it ��

    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    The other day we replaced the worn out sunroof drain hoses in the WJ for some new heavier clear tubing... now when it rains, I stay dry & the Vehicle Information Center above the rear view mirror doesn't cry either.

    I bought a Grand Cherokee... I had to

    No, the 247 in it is junk. I took it out playing in the little bit of snow that we got & the AWD doesn't kick in until you're already "losing" control 🙄

    I bought a Grand Cherokee... I had to

    After busting knuckles on the little lady's Subaru brakes, it's time once again to work on the WJ. I found a 242HD t-case (with a front shaft) to go behind the 4.7 & finally sourced a rear shaft... and now there's nothing to it but to do it. None of the donor GCs had a usable shifter bezel so...

    I bought a Grand Cherokee... I had to

    Not yet, I think the 247 is shot. There's a 242 (and drive shafts) down the road at a salvage yard that I may pluck. I know the front axle shafts are shot too.
