Went to Long Ranch near Llano, TX on Labor Day weekend. Had originally planned to go Padre Island for some beach wheeling/camping but with Gustav approaching, we though it was a better idea to go someplace a little closer to home (Killeen, TX) and further away from the ocean. Everyone had a...

For those guys looking for a "safari style" soft top, here is one on ebay. Looks to be in pretty good shape, but this guy is expecting to get top dollar. $600 starting bid, $1000 buy-it-now. I paid around $650 for mine brand new but I have seen quite a few bring the price he's trying to get...

The Beast has reached a new milestone. Snapped this photo when I got home from work today. Still running on original drivetrain.

Back in November, I installed a 6" lift and 35" tires on my "Beast". I still have a lot more plans for it but I couldn't wait any longer and went wheelin with a local club I belong to here in Killeen. One of the members' father in law owns some land near Buckholts, TX and is nice enough to let...

Hey bud, I'm starting a new thread with this so we won't completely jack the oil-filter thread :)>- . Check out this video from Youtube. .

Well guys, I'm home. Been back from Iraq about 48 hours and I just couldn't wait any longer to start hanging all the parts I've been ordering over the last few months. Got the rear suspension work done today. Soaked all the front bolts in PB Blaster and I'll start on the front tomorrow...

Put together this ".gif" movie from photos taken earlier today. A budy and I were clowning around at one of the small swimming pools here on the camp where we live/work. The area used to be one of Saddam's many palace/resort complexes. Now we use it to let off a little steam when we get the...

Found this video link posted on another Bronco forum. I'm sure you guys will love it. Bronco vs. Jeep Don't know what that guy was thinking. He never had a chance!

A common question when lifting TTB (Twin Traction Beam) suspensions is, "Why do I need drop brackets?" or "Why can't I just add a coil spacer or use longer springs?" Actually you can do that, but you will have alignment problems if you lift more than an inch or two. The alignment problems can...

I see lots of questions like "Can I shift into 4H while moving?" or "I shift into 4X4 but my front wheels are not spinning" or "Is my truck a shift-on-the-fly?". Here is a copy of the "Four Wheel Drive System" section from the Owners Manual for a 1996 Bronco. It's from the '96 Manual, but the...

Here is a page that will show you how to Diagnose problems with your electric shift 4X4. I believe this link was originaly posted by Miesk5.

I have seen several posts asking how to correct the speedometer after installing larger tires or lower gears. Here are two websites that are very helpfull in that area: 92-96 Electronic Speedometers Gear driven speedometers Edit: In another topic, Seabronc pointed out that the site I found...

Just want to try something out. Experiment.wmv

While surfing around at one of the sites I like to check out, ( http://www.partsamerica.com/TruckAccessories.aspx ) I came across this photo: Has anyone every seen something like this on the road? I have not. If this truck was never built, I wonder why they (Advance Auto/Checker/Kragen)...

I just got an e-mail with some pictures from a guy I met on my recent trip home to New Mexico. He took these pictures while I was climbing out of an aroyo that we had been driving in. Around the little bend to the right, were a couple of BIG rocks that the jeeps fit through with about an inch...

You guys are probably getting tired of this stuff, but this time I have some video for you. I took about two hours of video but but I've edited it down to these five clips of about two minutes each. Enjoy :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />...

Today was the last day of the Chile Challenge in Las Cruces, NM. I went on the "Spectators Run" today, so I don't have much to say except that I saw some really cool rides doing impossible stuff. Here is how day 2 and 3 went: DAY 2 (Box Canyon/Posado Trails) Day two I was in a larger group...

I'm not sure if this is the right section for this post. If it's not a moderator can move where it goes and I post about Days 2 - 4 in the correct location. Day one was great! I was a little bit wary when I lined up with my assigned group and noticed that it consisted of 11 Jeep Wranglers, 1...
