    Hi-Lift Jack Hood Mount

    personally would not hit the hood, mount inside or on a bumper. If you mount outside make sure you keep up maintenance. Hi lifts rust and freeze up easily. If neglected to long, it becomes completely useless. I personally mounted mine on the bumper. I remove it from the jeep until I go out and...

    ?73 cj5 extremely rough ride?

    Little slow here, you have a 6" lift on this Jeep? If so, you will ride like a tank. The springs are very hard. If the Jeep has factory springs and the shocks are bad, are they dead? Does it bounce around just from your body weight or is it stiff and a board. Pull the front shocks, does it...

    Who here has served, or currently serving?

    Thats ok, I did the 11 bullet catcher thing too. Jumped from planes, and many other things I did not list. I left active duty and went into the guard. Hence why I was 11 bang bang. Miss it sometimes, other times not so much. ALways thankful for those who serve though. Oh and it was 4/7 ADA in Lewis

    What CB antenna/radio...

    The 102 in would be my recomendation always. I run a 102 with a Galaxy 88 10/12 meter radio. It is converted to 11 meter (CB). When you install the antenna make sure the SWRs are set. You do not need 18 feet of coax, don't let anyone tell you you will. I run 9 foot, have a reading of 1:1.2 on a...

    A few years ago, my brother went out showing off his new chevy 4x4. He hit the mud and got stuck. Well he comes walking back from the desert and asks if I could help him out. He wanted shovels and bodies. Well we grabbed up the shovels and a 20,000 pound chain from my rig. We go out there and he...
