Re: Retire
I hope so! I will be jumping right in to another full-time career, although it's working for myself and not "The Man" , so hopefully I can pull off Moab. What are the dates ??

Re: Member Removal Board
When I first joined the Internets, say, back when I also had Compuserve in 1995, I used to hate getting into arguments online. I would get upset with people ONLINE. It's ridiculous now. I could literally care less what anyone says negative these days. Really, it really doesn't matter. There will alw...

FINALLY changed front Diff fluid.
Well, after 7 years, 110,000 miles and countless horrendous adventures, I finally changed my front diff fluid. It wasn't pretty. But it also wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, especially since I submerged it completely a few times. The metal shavings between the magnet and the little locker sen...

Re: Water Crossing
This is why military trucks have snorkels. It would be lame to have a little water stop you in your tracks. Also the same reason I have a snorkel on my PW.

Re: Airing down how low?
I went down to 12 ish PSI after getting stuck (with a 16' trailer") is super deep sand. Worked like a charm. I also have the deflators which is nice! The military ones are the best ones IMHO. Took FOREVER to refill tires though with small portable compressor . Now I have a badass onboard air system....

Re: Water Crossing
I got my truck stuck in the Pecos river. That's the incident that prompted me to install a snorkel. Of course no pics though. I was too stressed to take any.

Re: WTF-I gotta move soon.....................
The "Sticker/Mailbox thing" Is %100 false, just a hoax. You guys are a little too paranoid.
As for the ammo thing, ya that sucks. We can't keep. 223 ammo on the shelves here, I haven't really noticed any real price gouging, which is nice.

Re: New massive recall of 1.2M Ram trucks....
I just had my PW in for an unrelated repair, (on 1-16-14) and the service adviser told me that most Dodge dealers didn't even have the necessary parts in for these warranty repairs. Law requires the manufacturer to advise the owners within 30 days, but the dealer has much longer then that to make th...

I just dropped 900 for the Gearbox and Steering shaft. Whats another 700 right? Uugghhh. I knew MOPAR upgraded the gearbox a couple years ago, but I didn't know they upgraded the PS pump as well? I am hoping to make Moab this May so I gotta be mechanically sound!

Hey guys, I am kinda perplexed at something. So I need to replace my steering gearbox, and power steering pump. I ordered the badass upgraded Borgesson Gearbox and new Steering shaft. My problem is that I called the dealer in regards to an OEM PS pump, and they want over 700 dollars for it!!! (Inclu...
