What did you do to your Cherokee today?
I do know for a fact, there are a bunch of trails here in Colorado that you wouldn't dare take a full-size Chevy up...................They either don't fit, or they get hung-up underneath................... Z-71 FTW!................ For the record...................He got yanked off the rocks by a Jeep......... As far as Mud-bogging......................The one with the biggest tires, and the most horsepower usually wins............... I don't mud-bog....................I HATE mud.................. Cleaning it out with the pressure-washer makes a huge mess, and takes forever!

Mounted my Shovel on my Roof-rack today..........
So I don't have to carry it inside anymore....................
I bought these..................4-Wheel Parts has them in stock for $8.99
Installation is simple......................
I just drilled a 3/16" hole for each one..............
Used a little blue threadlock on the threads..................
10 minutes later, there they are!
This is my Winter shovel for wheeling....................My Summer shovel is smaller, and pointed.................
I bought the smaller size ones too. I wasn't sure which size would fit my shovel..................I'll find a use for these inside the Jeep......Maybe a flashlight mount or something.....

Just picked up a few of those at the suggestion of someone on Twitter. Gonna use their rollbar mounts to hold my HiLift in the YJ so I don't have to cut/replace zip ties if I need to use the jack
We have a bunch of them on our County trucks to hold various things..............They claim to hold 25lbs each clamp..........
Should hold a Hi-Lift no problem..........

FINALLY cut and folded rear fenders. Bought some bedliner to paint my quarters, and some hood vents I'll install probably tomorrow. Also began to plan out a cowl snorkel.

I have always used Wells, and I will continue to use Wells..........They manufacture high quality products..............In some cases, their parts are re-engineered to fix an OE design......
They (Wells) wouldn't have made it to the top of the industry by manufacturing crap! No company would..................
Just as Autozone certainly couldn't have made it to number-1 in the business by selling crap...........................
It's funny how internet rumors get started..................A couple people post up something, and then it gets circulated and circulated as absolute truth.................Sorry, but that's just the way it is....................
Kinda like Fram filters..................A couple people may have had a failure, but the millions and millions of other people who use them have never had a failure...........................But they are labeled as crap on the internet forums............
I personally don't use them, but I know a lot of people who do and have never had an issue..
Anyway..................No-one is forcing anybody to buy parts from anywhere..............Buy parts from whoever you like/feel confident about.
If you like a certain brand, buy that............................
For the record.............I don't like Fram. I think they are crap, and wouldn't buy one.....................Just sayin..................

For the record, have Zero issues with Autozone and they're one of only two stores I use. The second is NAPA.
