What is below your spare tire?

Easeord 4.5 gallon water tank. Can be pressurized for showers or cleaning dishes, etc. Gets warm in the sun, very happy with it.

Looks nice. I had looked into a waterport which is basically the same thing, but a plastic container. The plastic housing is what deterred me from going that route. Looks like an aluminum tank?

RUFF TUFF...very happy with them so far. Took a while for them to be made but I'm liking look.

Where did you find the Shiner patch?

Cuz there ain’t nothing finer than an ice cold Shiner!

Lucky enough to win them on one of their Instagram giveaways

Close to being back together, its been seventeen day since I broke it Moab. Installed Spice Ultimate FDU Dana 44, Spice Cvs and Hoss 3.0 Rack. Pro Comp coilovers/shocks.

Just need to install the tie-rods after the rack is programmed. re-toque every think adjuster the height and put the skid plate back on.

I bought Issue 01 today. I remember buying issue 1 of recoil magazine and giving it away to find out later it’s was worth a lot on eBay.

Installed the Hotheads headliner this morning. Looks to be very good quality. Time will tell. Love the finished look it gives to the interior.

they look great! do these help with noise? might you have a link?

 

[Barbeau]

Preference. Just like a soft top or hard top.

i don’t mind it, but i am curious if the wear on the battery and starter outweighs the fuel efficiency benefit. anyone have knowledge on the matter?

Put together and test fitted a Curt tow basket so my 2 door will have a little more space during travels.

that’s a beautiful bronco

I think it knocked a couple db off the noise at highway speed. They do help with noise but it's hard to quantify.

There is no fuel efficiency gained from the auto stop. It’s about emissions standards. In fact you may lose some fuel efficiency from the starting procedure.

Thanks for the insight. I’m confused though — aren’t emissions and fuel efficiency proportional (everything else being equal of course)? The emissions come from the combusting of fuel — If I’m combusting fuel, I’m releasing emissions. If I’m not combusting fuel, I’m not releasing emissions. They should go hand in hand, and roughly proportional to each other (I understand that starting takes more fuel than idling so of course there is some efficiency loss in re-starting over idling for some threshold time).

So, with A.S.S off: if I’m not moving but combusting fuel and going nowhere, by definition my fuel efficiency is decreasing (and my emissions are increasing). What I wonder is whether the financial and (production & shipping) energy costs of battery and starter wear outweigh the financial and energy savings from the A.S.S.
