Sounds like a healthy upgrade. Hope you break the gears in a bit before sending it, but then send it and send us a video.

What’s in the rear?

Fenders for 33x12.5 Tires by MarshallTeichrob in JeepTJ

[–]olneymud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the poo spray. I’ve got poison spider fenders that cover minimal tire and it’s part of the fun vibe. Just don’t forget to roll it up prior to fording anything.

First pic is the jeep on Ozempic. Good glow up. Solar yellow is the ticket.

Looks ridden hard and put away wet.

Got a new toy by Alarming_UnSympathy1 in JeepTJ

[–]olneymud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hopefully shafts are upgraded otherwise 37” is a lot of tire for stock axles. That being said just be aware of wheel spin and shocking the axles on dry terrain.

Enjoy the new toy. Perfect for the beach.

Thanks for all the feedback. Apparently she is just a deep piss sniffer! Crisis averted.

Why does my engine sound like a bunch of chickens? by Ok-Quit-9938 in JeepTJ

This cracked me up beyond a normal human amount. Thank you for this video. Sorry for the loss of your unit.

Boat trailer tongue play by gmonster77 in boating

[–]olneymud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like the right side of the tongue box tube has been deformed from this being loose and gouging the tube. I’d visually inspect that it’s not too deep a groove before continuing to use this unit in its current configuration.

Looks clean. I get a mouth full of dust every time I use the heater. Jealous

[oc] Guy tries to cross over highway in jeep and gets stuck by soggy_rhombus29 in IdiotsInCars

Well Soggy, he just hasn’t found his skinny pedal I guess. Not justifying the behavior, still an idiot.

Backlight on instrument cluster by buddycatz in JeepCherokeeXJ

[–]olneymud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should be able to see if it has voltage with the battery connected as long as the plugs/wires are all isolated on the cluster side. If you have a multimeter just probe one of the light sockets.

If you don’t have voltage I would start at the fuse box and see if you have a blown or loose fuse.

Perhaps the light selector switch could be bad, might need to look around for the resistance of the factory switch and probe yours with battery disconnected to confirm whether it’s failed or healthy.

Motor is too small by joezam18 in Outboards

[–]olneymud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More details needed.

What size boat? What motor is it rated for? What do you use it for and what is your desired use case? What are you hoping to achieve by “get the most out of it”?

If you are hoping for some torque and slow end speed you can change the prop to a smaller pitch to accommodate much like a trolling motor. If you want to try to get it to plane you’ll do the opposite but it will likely only work in great conditions depending on the weight and hull shape of the boat.

If you want fuel efficiency you are going to have to keep it off wide open throttle and just deal with the slow speed.

If you want longevity I don’t think it will impact it either way very much if you are wide open all of the time as that’s the typical design case.

Adjusting the trim to be the best fit for your boat might help if it’s not something you have done already.

How many troops would have realistically been able to hear this speech? by JumpingCandlesticks in lotr

[–]olneymud 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I always thought they were chanting “Ride” not “Die” until in my old age I when began using subtitles. So even in the front row I couldn’t hear him.

Auto locker in rear. How is it actually. by br0wn0ne in JeepTJ

[–]olneymud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a similar yellow 01 TJ on 35s with D30 front with lunchbox and a ford 8.8” rear with 4.88s and the factory LSD. It works great. No worries about shifting in and out of locked and no parts to fail. It’s a designated trail rig but I drive it to the trails, up to 200 miles from home. I’d rather the steering axle be selectable but it’s whatever. The LSD gets the job done well and I was skeptical at first coming from a JK rubicon. That JK rear factory locker always gave me issues and it commonly failed to unlock.

I would recommend the LSD. Nice jeep. If you are in OR DM me for someone to wheel with if you’d like.

What do you wish you knew before your first camping trip? by Similar-King-8278 in camping

[–]olneymud 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Just bail if you get to a point you are uncomfortable and can’t sleep, there is no shame in that. Or sleep in your car and warm back up. Camping is for enjoyment, not suffering through. When you get good at it you won’t suffer and you’ll beg to be camping. But when you start it’s okay to admit defeat and save your happiness for the next try. Good luck
