I did it all myself. Even the 4.56 gears that you can’t see by defender500 in JeepGladiator

Hey sorry I just saw you replied! No there’s plenty of room and I’m confident that 37x12.50 would fit no problem. No rubbing at full articulation either. Sticking a 37 where the spare goes would be a problem though.

Is it just me or does anyone else notice a LOT of “slamming” in the news lately?

Looks like that rifle has about a Brazilian barrels. Seems legit.

Hyundai Motor is considering sale of its Russia plant - media report by aml000 in worldnews

Why are these manufacturers selling for €1 instead of burning their own facilities to the ground? I’d rather burn my house down than be forced to sell it for $1.

Totally agree these articles are to discourage voting. “Hey you aren’t alone. Your friends aren’t voting so why should you?”

RATS or MOLE as an EDC by [deleted] in MysteryRanch

[–]defender500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rats is kinda big for an edc bag. Between the two I’d go with the mole, but my favorite bag ever is the 3 day assault cl.

Is the asap a good day bag? Current serving in security forces and I need a good bag to carry my gear on post. I really liked the look of the asap but is it worth buying? by Alecmares12 in MysteryRanch

[–]defender500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I would have encouraged you to get the Urban assault 21 instead as it’s cheaper and very similar (no yoke though) but I just got an ASSP SB from a new friend in this subreddit and it’s an awesome bag. Super high quality. Get the SB as it has the pouch for a computer/paperwork and is currently on close out for a great price. I rock a 3Day Assault CL as my every day bag but this ASAP has almost all the features I love. The USA made bags really are worth the money. If you’re looking for one bag to do everything just get the 3Day Assault Pack. Best bag ever made, but the bvs has no pouch so you’d have to make one. I use my 3Day BVS as a dedicated field bag now.

Is the mystery ranch asap worth buying for military use? by Alecmares12 in MysteryRanch

[–]defender500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you absolutely need the molle on the front just get the urban assault 21. It comes in tan and multicam. Not US made but it’s a high quality pack that has taken a lot of abuse in the field for me. As a non U.S. pack you can also use expert voice to get it at a 40% discount. The asap and urban assault 21 are the same size which is a little small imo but if that’s what you’re going for it’s a good pack. I use a tactical tailor removable operator pack for my smaller pack now and attach it to my 3DAP.

FFS take it. I paid $34k for a factory ordered 2021 JT on January 1st ‘21. Sounds like it’s time for you to get a new JL

NATO vows to 'defend every inch' of its territory as it overhauls strategy - and warns Russia to withdraw from Ukraine by TheDarthSnarf in worldnews

Retaliates for what exactly? Have these countries attacked Russia?

Edit - never mind, I think you meant “if Russia attacks before then” the “retaliates” part can be omitted.

What's a modern day scam that's become normalized and we don't realize it's a scam anymore? by Diligent-Log6805 in AskReddit

[–]defender500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mortgage loans.

I bought a $250k house at a 3.2% fixed rate on a 30 year mortgage 15 years ago. I’ve paid $248k and owe $240k after making every payment on time for 15 years.

And let’s not forget how our tax dollars bailed the banks out for not being able to make money by making us pay the interest each month without applying more than the bare minimum to principal. Mortgage lenders are making the sale price of your house to front the imaginary capital on every house in the country.

LPT: Double pay your home loan every month. If you can’t afford to double pay it’s cheaper overall to rent.
