    We are rethinking our approach to this hobby. It’s a lot to keep two rigs going. Costs twice as much to wheel them, and so on.

    We’re leaning towards selling the XJ once my truck is back on the road.

    Smaller trailer, smaller tow rig, etc.

    Well normally u wouldn't really need the scantool, it's really only for getting the air out of the abs system, but I've had a tiny bit of air in there ever since I let a cheap mechanic replace my MC like 2 years ago, it's been bothering me ever since and I just did new front calipers and rear cylinders so I figure now is a good time to do the full flush with the scantool. I already got them bled enough to drive around comfortably but I want that extra squishyness out

    Smaller house bigger toys.

    This only needs to be done on the trd Offroad Trucks because of the electronic booster vs rhe vaccum booster on the other trim levels. But you can also just bleed the brakes with the key on and get the same results. Check out this link for exactnessticity.

    I’m focusing on the Taco for now. I’ll figure everything else out later.

    Sell the taco, get another jeep. Jeeps are cheap you can be a jeep guy. They are all dicks you'll fit in perfectly.




    Better idea give Karen the taco, she's nice she makes me breakfast, you take the jeep.

    Good thing you opted for weld on sliders. Bass can cause a hella dent

    Especially the big ones that I plan on hooking on the tournament circuit. My winnings will pay for those new sliders. Lol.

    Any of you guys have a carbide chop saw that you like?

    I’m looking at this:
    https://www.sawblade.com/order-circular-saws.cfm

    I know Jon (no H) likes to use a band saw. I was also looking at this:
    https://www.sawblade.com/order-bandsaw-machine-trajan125.cfm
    but they’re sold out.

    I have a pile of steel sitting at work that I need to bring home. I’m going to start on the flatbed soon, and I’m not making all those cuts on my crappy Rigid abrasive chop saw...

    Im open to suggestions.

    Not from you James. Your ideas are dumb.
