Nine Pounds That Make a Difference
The nine pounds of the Inertia Ring will make your little engine big. This simple modification can really help get some extra torque out of a big or small engine.
Save Your Skin: Mechanix Wear Gloves
Have you ever had to work on your engine while it was still hot? Or perhaps your trying to remove a suborn bolt and it lets loose unexpectedly. Then try some Mechanix Gloves.
Jeep Wrangler 700R4 Transmission Installation
Ron gets down to the details on installing a 700R4 4 speed automatic in his Wrangler YJ. It is always the details that make swaps tough and Ron works through them.
XJ TeraFlex Quick Disconnects
We lifted the Project SkyMiles Cherokee using parts from Old Man Emu and TeraFlex. Now to maximize our efforts, we'll add quick anti-sway bar disconnects. Disabling the anti-sway bar for off-road use will allow the axle to articulate, keeping the tires on the ground so that they can maintain traction.
Deep Six Gets an 8274
Predator Four Wheel Drive was running a special on some brand new, old style Warn 8274 winches. The price was only $699 for this amazing winch and I couldn't pass it up.
4x4 Unlimited Low Profile Winch Bumper
4x4 Unlimited recently introduced their low profile bumper and winch mount. This new bumper and winch mount lowers the winch so that it sits between the frame rails to improve air flow to the radiator.
Master Pull's Amsteel Non-Metal Winch Rope
Only a fraction of the weight of steel cable, this synthetic UHMWPE rope is easy to store, carry, and deploy and is safer to use than steel cable, with its kinks, curls, and wire splinters. Best of all, with Master Pull's Amsteel rope, a broken rope won't whiplash.
Safety Seal Tire Repair Kit
Traveling off-highway exponentially increases the chances of tire damage. Carrying the Safety Seal Tire Repair Kit adds even more peace of mind than does carrying a second full-size spare tire.
Center Axle Disconnect Theory and Repair
Many manufacturers install Center Axle Disconnect (CAD) instead of old-style manual locking hubs. Knowing how CAD works allow on-the-trail troubleshooting and even manual cycling the mechanism on the trails.
