Link to pressure washer attachment?

I gave the outside a quick scrub but I still need to get the fender wells and any accumulated shit on the underside cleaned out before winter hits.

Funny you glazed over it when I posted it the first time...I was like shit, I guess he already has it.
Even with a 1700 psi electric one it was strong enough...I may cap off 1 of the 4 to make it stronger...with your
big gas one you will love this thing.

I must have just missed it somehow but I'm for sure getting that. Mine can put out 3000psi so it should have no issues lol.

even being as high as mine is...it did a great job of getting all the loose dry mud out...i wish I had ordered it before doing all that work on it
on my back...every ratchet tap on the underside ensured my face was covered in a fine mist of dust and dirt.

Since the doors off life is the only life for me I needed a mirror solution...
I tried these bolt ons...but they sucked...at high speeds they would move
and when you park you inevitable bump them and have to have your passenger
adjust it every time.



So I tried out these other brackets that allow you to take the mirrors off your doors and
make them fixed. I think I can even pop the doors on still and leave the mirrors on the jeep.

It's a Jeep. This statement is the ethos of the entire design.

LOL...it's been there for like a month now...head gasket leak...they took the heads out and when reassembling the threading of the head bolts pulled out of the heads
like, looked like little slinkies as they were intact but out of the hole. They sent the heads off to be redone properly and rethreaded with new arp hardware IIRC.

that's what I said! Skinny Jeans!



Yesterday we ran out to the store and decided to take a detour that ended up being a 2 hour excursion down a bumpy road that was bumpy enough to make us
pretty hellbent on finding another way out to the North. Well the google satellite image of the route must have been taken at low tide. We went for it and
almost regretted it...probably about 300 yards of water to the bottom of where the doors normally are...and 100 yards to go we dip into what I image was a crater
made during the Jurassic period by a meteor. I freaked the fuck out at the thought of hydrolocking or getting stuck in chest deep mud with rather large gators
frequenting the area (Near Holiday Park for the locos pron: locals).

Gave it the onions and made it out...
immediately made me want to get 35's...a snorkel...a high lift jack and maybe even some wider fenders to keep some of the mud off of us and the interior.
I'm not going to of course but...

Only real casualty was a missing wire loom on the kc fog up front and this:
already got a set of rough country detachable endlinks on the way...traditional design was just expensive enough to justify spending a few more bucks on those
and they "shouldn't" ever have this issue and can be adjusted to get the sway bar angle back in spec.

we dirty!

this doesn't really show you but it was fucking deep


Saw this beast out by the substation


no Z wasn't with us, just her seat


this ended up being the easy part in hindsight

Glad you didn't get stuck.

Mud tires on order. You don't mention mods ever and then not do them. I don't believe it.

I think it was BFG Mud Terrain that my boss recommended...

it'll make this bitch look crazy though...already looks like a toy I can only
imagine.

Mud tires on a road driven Jeep will drive you up the fucking wall with tire noise and even more shitty driving dynamics (lol). I ditched those so fast and was immediately happy with my choice.

FWIW, My 35" BFG K02's weigh in at ~70lbs. Plus rim, you're close to 100lbs each.

Also, this is why you never go off road alone.
