    Anyone made a hood prop for their fridge?

    I haz an ARB 50qt fridge in the back of my 80 and find it annoying to have to use two hands, one to hold the fridge door up, and the other to rummage through to find my stuff. Thinking about a short gas support strut. Do i install it on the inside, or the outside? Will be setting it up...

    Tire carrier in stock rear bumper

    So I want more clearance when off pavement, but don't want to lose the stock spare location for city use because a swing out is a pain to use the rest of the time. What to do? The 4x4 Labs bumper would otherwise be ideal. Solution is to build a swingout into the stock bumper so I can remove...

    315-75-16 winter tires

    So, what's the best? I'm thinking about studded duratrac but are they actually snow tires? What about the Yokohama I/T? For urban and highway use, and occasional deep snow if/when I go snow wheeling. But I'll be packing chains when I do that.

    Tire chains and 315s

    So, how many fellow mudders chain up in the winters on your 315-75-16 tires? I'm running KM/2 with a low lift, OME 850-860 and am worried about clearance. Tips? I have ladder style chains that fit, they're not cables but rather twisted link chain. Cable chains from my local parts store were...

    A few people have been asking if you can convert a regular non-york type air conditioning compressor for use as an onboard air compressor. The answer is: maybe. The swash-plate type compressors will make air just fine, like a York, but because they don't have outboard lubrication, you have to...

    road trip to oregon dunes march 17

    I've wanted to visit the dunes for quite a while, since I was a small child. What do I need, other than a safety flag? Where do I get one of those? What size hole do I drill in my front bumper for the flag mount? I'd like to drill the hole at home and touch up paint it before I head out, so...

    Winch inside stock bumper fzj80

    There's a few threads on mounting a winch inside the stock bumper of the 80 and I thought I'd add my two bits. Years ago, before I bought my cruiser I looked inside the bumper and found a HUGE space to mount a winch. I was excited, and saved up many pennies. Finally I got a 97 LX450 with 56k...
