Draining gas tank...
Not sure if this will work, but I think the fuel pump runs for a minute or two when you turn the key on. Disconnect the fuel line at the throttle body and run into a gas can. Might take a while to pump it all out.- bugnout

Canoe
About 5 years ago had a chance to do a week in Quatico. Awesome trip, drew our water straight from the lake, didn't see another group for the whole week. 3 portages in, and I'll bet only a couple of souls in 10 years camped in those spots. Planning to take my son again when he gets out of the...- bugnout

Canoe
I have a 17ft Grumman I strap to my KJ. My wife has hit her head on it twice. She forgets its on the top and walked right into it when walking around the back of the Jeep. Almost knocked her out once. I load it from the back, careful to get it over the windshield before I let it touch the...- bugnout

Two unrelated observations
The amount of Ethanol in your gas can vary widely depending on the source. Ethanol is subsidized by the government so fuels with a higher percent concentration are typically cheaper than real gasoline. If your vehicle is not setup for Ethanol a higher Ethanol content can mean lower...- bugnout

DynaBeads
When I setup my tires the first time, I pulled all the wheel wieghts off and recorded the wieght for each wheel. I wanted to ensure I added at least enough wieght in beads to equal the wieght from the wheel with the highest total. Turned out to be just about the same as what was recommended...- bugnout

DynaBeads
I ran airsoft beads in MT/R's for a couple of years. The only time I noticed a lag in balance is on hard cornering at speed. Wide sweeping curves never a problem, just on tight curves. Not 20-30 seconds, but it was noticable immediately after the curve. Accel or decel seemed to shorten the time...- bugnout

Kj gone bad-anybody know the problem??
Weird things happen when you have a marginal battery. lights don't come on or fail to shut off, codes, etc. Good that they replaced it. Unless you have another electrical problem that caused the battery to go bad, you probably fixed the majority of your issues. Don't you leave the overdrive...- bugnout

Locker Choices for a Tow KJ
A few choices out there. I went with ARB air lockers because I wanted a selectable front locker. If your only going to lock the back, a lot of people find the Detroit Locker a cheap and effective choice.- bugnout

Brakes
Or... Find someone that will either let you watch over their shoulder or guide you thought it. If you really want to wrench, there is no substitute for first hand experience. Don't do your own brakes to save money, If you don't have the experience, It'll end up costing you more in the end.- bugnout
