    That does look very nice, very polished, like it was made that way. Great job.

    WARN Stubby Bumper Proposal?

    I'd be happy to host your photos for you, no charge, no obligation. Small pics...:shakehead: please don't do that. I'm difinitely interested in an after market solution for a front bumper that isn't the ARB. But I don't do rock crawling and I have no desire to expose that much of the front of...

    Custom Roof Crossbars for a Low Profile Rack

    Perfessor, the set screw on the crossbar makes contact and is a good fit. The set screw on the KJ roof rail hit too high and causes the crossbar to raise up. But that was before the rubber hose treatment. I didn't think to set that screw a little more after I installed the hose until I saw your...

    Custom Roof Crossbars for a Low Profile Rack

    This is what I did to lessen the chance of any rattling or damage to the KJ rails. It's some kind of automotive hose, but I'm not sure what kind. It fits the bolt snug. There was nothing that had thicker walls available, so I hope this is the solution. I haven't taken it on a drive yet, so...

    Custom Roof Crossbars for a Low Profile Rack

    There's room for something there. What, I'm not sure. I don't want to listen to rattling, so I'm thinking it has to be a soft material, like fuel line or something.

    Custom Roof Crossbars for a Low Profile Rack

    While I had to spend time In Reno Friday for doctor appointments, etc, I decided to see about powder coating or whatever. I asked about the Line-X and they agreed that it would be much more durable. So, that's what I got. Thanks for the suggestion, Tom. In hindsight, I should have listened to...

    Jeep Wave?

    There are quite a few KJs in my neck of the woods, but not a single one is lifted or has any other modifications. I had a guy come up to me a couple weeks ago who said with enthusiasm, "nice Jeep, man." I looked back where he came from and there was his own KJ, stock as stock could get. He said...

    Custom Roof Crossbars for a Low Profile Rack

    You mean from me? I haven't completed this project yet. I've been all caught up with a couple other non-Jeepin' type issues, so I'm way behind on the KJ stuff. I do glance at it when I go out to check the mail box though. ;)

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I had mine replaced a few months ago and my insurance waived all but $100.00 of my deductible. A hunert bucks ain't bad for a winshield. Not just a plain one either, it has a nice tint at the top edge.

    There, I fixed that for you. ;) If you use a mobile device on a vBulletin forum, versions older than 4.2.x (this is 3.8.7, like my own) and don't use the app Tapatalk, navigating the forum can be difficult or frustrating or both. Yeah, for me, but many of my members have said the same or...

    Oh, I know exactly what you mean. That's why I complained about making a post in the what-did-you-do-to-your-jeep thread only to ask a question. That isn't why the topic was started, but it has become the norm. There are so many great stand-alone discussions in that thread that are actually lost...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I invited a friend to go hunting for photos with me today. He's been in my KJ before, but not 4-wheelin' and not at all since my lift and new wheels & tires. I guess I was showing off a little and tried some terrain I wouldn't have normally tried alone. We got to this one side trail that...

    The search feature on vBulletin forum software is hit or miss - mostly miss. But the easiest way to use Google to search a specific website is to type it in this way (replace jeepkj.com with whatever domain you want to search): site:jeepkj.com search term or site:jeepkj.com "exact search...

    I disagree... strongly. Nearly every website I visit, the header's logo is the link to the home page. The main menu should also have a link to the home page, but as you noticed, this one doesn't. However, just below the main menu, there is what is referred to as the "breadcrumb" navigation and...

    Are they interchangeable?

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    So sorry to hear about both of these. I hope they went peacefully and with plenty of loved ones around. And I guess you two already know you have plenty of friends here at JeepKJ Forums that care about you. Jim

    Custom Roof Crossbars for a Low Profile Rack

    My lungs like powder coating a lot more than me spraying anything else around them. Not that I don't test that theory once in a while. Besides, it's a roof rail. It won't be subject to much wear unless I have a roll-over. Then the powder coat damage will be the least of my worries. And the...

    Custom Roof Crossbars for a Low Profile Rack

    In between rain showers, I did a test-fit of the cross bars. I need to trim a little off each end of the front bar so I can add caps to the ends of the pipe. I think the bends look good. They'll look even better powder coated wrinkle finish black.
