HI All, One problem that has always bothered me is what do you do when the heavens are weeping and you must spend significant time in your tent. If you are inside all day or at night with friends how do you deal with camping chairs? The issue I see is the fact that most camping chairs have...

HI All, Other than getting out of inclement weather, sleeping and changing clothes, how much time do you actually spend in your tent? Personally, the number would be close to zero. Therefore, I don't see a point of an expensive, large, ground or roof top, tent. I'll bet most of you are the same...

HI All, I have just refurbished my vehicle navigation system. For many years I had been running a Garmin GPS 3+ interfaced to a laptop running Terrain Navigator topo mapping software . The first two laptops (an HP and a Dell) eventually just fell apart from vibration. Then I decided to get...

HI All, A question about my new to me JKU factory rust protection came up in a conversation. I did not have an answer. I thought maybe some of you know exactly what Jeep does to rust proof their JK's. And is it effective? I'm not really talking about undercoating. For example, is the steel...

HI All, I have a question for you JK owners. How well does the stock brake operated limited slip rear differential (if it can be called a limited slip) actually work? I've heard good things about it. The comparison I would ask is how it compares to a fully locked rear such as ARB. I fear that...

HI All, Has anybody used the Kermit Chair? What do you think? Thanks, Sparky

Emergency Hi All, I have decided to get serious about my emergency survival capability. Here is a list of items I imagine I would need for a good survival capability. However, I have never been actually faced with a survival situation so I feel unqualified to imagine all possible survival...

HI All, A NOTE TO ALL: PICTURES HAVE BEEN DOWNLOADED. SEE POST 58 BELOW. I’m a brand new member here. So, I’d like to say “HI”. Sorry for this long initial post. I’m going to hit you guy’s with a difficult question I’m dealing with. Weight. Not me, my Jeep. I have an ’89 YJ, 258, soft top. It...
