My ability to troubleshoot audio issues is pretty limited and Google is information overload, so hopefully the brain trust here can help me. We have a 26' pontoon that we stripped down to the pontoons and restored a few years ago and installed a new MB Quart GMR-3 head unit, Pyle amp, speakers...

I like this idea a lot.

It seems like there's a drag and drive / endurance type event every other month popping up on social media for the drag racing crowd. If you're not familiar, its an event where you have to make a run at several different tracks in just as many days and your time slips determine your standings in...

Are there any vendors around Birmingham that have displays I can sit in?

My daily driver is a basically stock 97 TJ that's getting a 5.9 Magnum swap, Currie lift, interior upgrades, etc. this winter to make it a more comfortable daily and more capable leaf looking rig. It has the stock seats in it now and I've narrowed down my replacement options to Mastercraft Baja...

Thanks. This is ibrokeit's FIL's old TJ - you probably saw it in its past life. It will be nice to not have to turn off the AC to merge in traffic! This is a sight seeing trip for my wife and I. The Moab part is really just for me since we'll be so close. Thanks for all the feedback!

I am gearing up to do a Magnum swap in my 97 TJ this winter (build thread will come) and my wife and I decided we need to take it somewhere fun after all the bugs are worked out, so why not go out west? The trip would be September or October of 2022 and last 10 (ish) days. The general route...

I was looking for 65 sticks of 1.75" HREW last week - Besco was out of both HREW and DOM in that size and couldn't tell me when it'd be available again or for how much. Fun times!

I'm running this in my DD TJ and have really liked it. Going on a year now. https://www.crutchfield.com/S-38xqYX31xy5/p_105KDX37MB/JVC-KD-X37MBS.html We installed this in our pontoon this past season and its been a good unit so far. Its a really compact unit...

I've read a lot about him. I'll be doing the wiring myself, especially since he isn't in business anymore. From what I have read Chrysler used a CCD bus system from 97-00 and changed to PCI bus in 2001. If you get a donor engine from those year ranges and swap it into a vehicle of those years...

Motor choice will come down to what kind of donor vehicle I find once I start shopping. I'll be looking for a 98-2000 Ram 1500 (front axle will be used later for a SAS), but if a ZJ, Durango or Dakota came up I wouldn't turn it down. I wouldn't even turn down a 4.0/ automatic Wrangler if I found...

I originally wanted to swap in a 5.3, but after reading how well the Magnums integrate with all the stock Jeep stuff I decided to go that route. From all that I've read it looks like a really straightforward swap.

Good info. I added this above, but the TJ will be a DD on 33s with light trail use. I want enough power under the hood to not fear for my life when merging on the interstate and my wife wants an automatic, so this is the compromise.

As you probably guessed from the title, I'm in the planning stages of swapping in a 5.2/5.9 and 46RE into my 2.5 5 speed TJ and wanted to hear from the Hardline brain trust the reliability/ known issues of these engines and transmissions. The TJ will be a daily driver on 33s with the occasional...

If I'm towing much more than my Rhino I'll load the Tow tune in it, otherwise I leave it in Sport. I had them set up my Sport tune with an 80% reduction of TM and when Tow/Haul button is pressed TM goes to 100% reduction and really wakes the truck up. I have an aftermarket trans cooler and...

I can only speak to my research and experience with BBP, but the overwhelming majority of what I read said that a BBP tune was much better than everything else available. I have been satisfied with the tunes and customer service so far, though having to email them for every little thing can get...

You would be shocked how much drag that tailgate has. I removed mine and built some equipment style fold up ramps and a set of mesh ramps for everything else. They also double as a tail gate.. Picked up 2-3mpg and the trailer is noticeably easier to pull. I still have my gate for when I...

I have a 2003 Silverado with an LM7 5.3 on 285s, so essentially the same truck. I had 285s on 3.43 gears and it was indeed a pig, so I swapped to 4.10 gears via a 14bsf swap and it was a noticeable difference. What made a night and day difference was doing a tune ,getting rid of the torque...

I'll second the Hyperikon tubes. I got clear tubes off amazon and they're very bright. You do get used to it, but frosted wouldn't be a bad idea. I did not have to replace the tombstones - just bypassed the ballast. I was in the same boat and had a garage full of T8s and T12s that were...

I have a Yeti 45, Rtic 20 that lives on my Rhino and an Rtic soft sided cooler and am very satisfied with Rtic. It really is a carbon copy of the YetI, has held up great and holds ice just as well as the Yeti. As many others have said, any cooler's performance is dependent on drink and cooler...
