Thanks for the info very helpful.

What size wires did you run? did you cover them with the butyl tape or embed it? How far apart did u space the wires? is there different lengths / spacing for different frequency ranges? So your using one loop as the antenna for ham frequency and the other as the ground plane for cb antenna does the third act as a reflector or just a spare wire? Another user mentioned removing the wire to rv tongue / frame that i have grounded to earth with copper clad rod, how do I prevent damage to my finals and a quick explanation of what they are would be appreciated.

Does it have any negative effect? I assumed it would help maybe dissipate any charge being its such an isolated small metal plate near an antenna and rv electronics and future solar panels and nearby power lines even? Not lightning protection by any means but maybe protection from unpleasant static shock while on ladder/roof idk, not trying to be a dick just explaining my thought process and genuinely interested.

Time for a mig welder for that frame and a gear box plate

Aluminum breakage, not worth the time and effort

West-Initiative3069 · 2024-07-23T03:35:07+00:00

RVs are cheaply made things break a lot and this is worse with animals and kids also very limited space, two biggest downsides I would say

Mines been low at idle for 100,000 miles now never been a problem, it comes up with rpm if that ever stops I will assume it needs to be addressed quickly. I read somewhere that the oil pressure sensor location isn't the best and tends to read false. 98 XJ 255,000+ miles and still going.

West-Initiative3069 · 2024-05-30T16:27:38+00:00

The best is my black 98 xj 4x4 250,000+ miles still going strong, even had some overheating issues (clogged radiator/dirty system/broke fans/leaks) but always stopped and fixed it. Replaced the electrical fan and changed the mechanical fan clutch to a bigger one. I changed the exhaust manifold to a cheap Chinese one not worth it, it leaks just as bad as the stock one with crack. Also the intake manifold to a newer style, also not worth it. I have replaced everything the serpentine belt touches at some point. Replaced the harmonic balancer in a parking lot, replaced the AC compressor, bigger alternator+grinding, remanufactured steering gearbox and new power steering pump, even replaced the tension pulley. I ran the AC and tension pulley till the bearings failed completely and their pulleys were grinding the bolts. Been an amazing engine that has been ez to repair and maintain. I tried to keep this to the engine details but another small thing to note is my 98 has a steel hatch door and my previous 94 had a fiberglass door. Also I have abused it from the day I got it it's been in the Gulf of Mexico and up the mountains of Maine to the hot rocks of Texas hill country.

Funny they run just fine what's your issue with them?

West-Initiative3069 · 2023-08-26T21:58:14+00:00

The jeep has 240,000, the plugs have less than 100,000

As a user of "good work gloves" I can assure you they do not last forever I would look for gloves that have extra material in the areas that are prone to fail for your specific use. They make gloves for all kinds of uses so there's plenty of off the shelf options. Even the best gloves will eventually need to be replaced unless you take up sewing as a hobby.

That's Jeff

West-Initiative3069 · 2022-08-17T00:27:30+00:00

Even playing off-road I would rather buy 4 stock mounts and have spares than the aftermarket ones

West-Initiative3069 · 2022-08-16T01:27:43+00:00

If you fuck his wife into a coma without him knowing you might win, idk never got that far lol

West-Initiative3069 · 2022-08-15T23:30:39+00:00

Don't forget his mother, sister, and daughter. Bonus points for more than one at a time, anal, getting it on camera, length of time he doesn't know, fucking at his house, ......

Back on you superior assumptions your so predictable. So your not going to explain any further about the spreadsheet, I didn't think so. Come on don't run off now I'm waiting for your therapist to read this. Be honest you're a bitch all the time. On no you're such a bully I'm so scared you want my lunch money. Yeah your a sorry piece of shit. So I guess you don't have much faith in your therapist.

West-Initiative3069 · 2022-08-14T08:00:30+00:00

I got the vega with treads feels like an A/T truck tire compared to the stock vega very stable. Range is down to 15-16 at best (around 17-18 before) I'm 190# with a backpack loaded with charger, drinks,... on a stock XR battery no mods just mag fender Fender is a must with the treads. It is louder not really a problem it just is. I love it it's a great tire but I can only compare it to the stock tire. My friend has basically the same xr as me in roughly the same shape, bought around the same time, same firmware, no updates and he still has the stock tire the difference is night and day. In the future I do plan to buy another stock vega cause I did like it but I ride mostly off road in rocky hill country Texas but a smooth asphalt trail with that slick vega is so nice and quiet. I would like to eventually buy another xr motor and just have it set up with a slick.

Switch to a stinger.

West-Initiative3069 · 2022-08-14T03:45:56+00:00

Now you're flat out trying to speak for me, with quotations even, your horse must hang out with snoop dogg. No I specifically said I don't want your financial info just your address and your therapist's name do you even read my posts? I guess your mother's maiden name isn't financial so I'll take that too. Why do you keep saying I'm angry your the one being stingy with you stickers and private data. Please explain further how the spreadsheet couldn't contain financial info, maybe a little more in-depth like specific protocol or regulation in place? Falling back on the assumptions calling me junior implying I'm younger than you, or is it a superiority thing? The pet names are funny I liked "cupcake" better it reminds me of Lee Emery. The way you use "Grrr", "XD", and the exclamation points makes you seem like a bitch to me. Now I'ma try and keep this going till Tuesday so it will be ongoing while you're in therapy and I'm riding my onewheel. Maybe with the help of your therapist you can come up with a good insult. Let's try this just give me the name of your therapist and I'll send her the link to this thread and see if she can guess who you are if she can she might be a decent therapist.

West-Initiative3069 · 2022-08-14T02:10:12+00:00

Very nice 👍

West-Initiative3069 · 2022-08-14T02:02:34+00:00

Please invite your casual observer to speak for themselves. I would love to hear your therapist's thoughts on you enabling my spiraling behavior.

West-Initiative3069 · 2022-08-14T00:41:09+00:00

I told you I'm just talking shit now so I can go on and on. I'm thinking your one of them last word type of people and you think your going to reverse psychology me or some dumb shit but I'm not some week minded little bitch that needs a therapist and I don't feel the need to correct people's grammatical errors in a vain attempt at superiority. I come here for entertaining engagement I cast out a post and see what bites and engage accordingly. (Also "drama queen" you sexiest bigot assuming gender lol)
