Good choice! Xboxes and HDTVs do really well in rollovers and are a lot more handy than recovery gear while waiting for a life flight.

well andy im sorry that i offended you with my horrible grammar and that you think i wont have recovery equipment
but just so you know i will be putting in a winch fire extinguisher four race seats with 5 point seat belts and not to mention the roll cage which will keep me pretty safe and as far as your worries about the other stuff flying around im extremely experienced with electronics and the mounting off electronics and i can guarantee that anything i put in there will not move once mounted (im not that stupid just dont like punctuation) so please stop being a dick cause im obviously a pretty nice guy as you can tell from this message and how im not really saying anything against you, and actually thanks i am thinking of being a member but i lack a job right now so im being somewhat careful with my money.

...wow just a few hours of not being on and installing stuff left me with a lot to reply to lol

k and maxxxj if you actually want to put a system in i can definitely help you if you want to meet up im 100% positive you will be pleased with my work and if something doesnt fit as long as you have some money i can get you some custom made boxes and other stuff to help with space for extremely good deals like up to 50% off sometimes more.

ok and not sure who said photobucket but thanks and ya ill set up an account later today and add all my pictures from about 6 months ago till now (ill have my lift on today)
so your all gonna see a really fast upgrade lol

if i forgot to mention you sorry thanks for your input

thanks for the offer but i install most of my equipment and build all my own boxes, im not the kind of guy that see's specs the manufac. lays out for me and builds it to their design, i throw down the specs to a box calculator and build my boxes according to what the sub really likes, usually with excellent results (2 W3 12's sealed in the 0-600 class hit 139.3 decibles in my honda civic off of a diamond audio d3 600.1 for example) but 50% off sounds good to me as long as i can get the precision power DCX 1500.1 =) i can get it now for 700 shipped to my door but half that would be awesome :gag: or maybe the image dynamics Q 1200 for less than a grand.
 
....one final problem both the upper and lower control arms bolts were completely frozen so i had to grind off and it took all day basically to get them out in fact still have some work tomorrow then i have to go find out if kragen or home depot has that size bolt (hopefully) then just install which should only take like an hour (god i love install so easy lol)
then the pictures ive been promising haha
 
i would go to the dealer to get replacement control arm bolts if i were you. they should at the very lease be grade 8 or the metric equivalent, and should match the originals as closely as possible.

Hit the junkyard and find a set that isn't seized.
 
ya thats what my buddy said and he said if they dont have them that they will make them for me
i think i was going to keep that as a last resort though due to pricing

ill probly call the dealer and see how much they are and if its still a bit pricy ill head to home depot first and try and match bolts there cause i actually got one out today ...got lucky
and the junkyard is a maybe just cause i hate the gamble of there not being anything and just wasting my time you know.
 
my jeep approx. 6-7 months ago she was still pretty haha

For sure, i currently don't have a jeep, i had a 04 wj, but naxja was the olny group I could find that activly wheeled. So I joined here, hell i was even red for a year, something is in the works.
 
god damnit stupid XXXXing control arms all these god damn bolts are frozen and now the bolt connecting the upper control arm to my jeeps body is stripped this is bullshit i cant afford to buy all new bolts unless someone knows where to get the cheap and not the junkyard because i dont want to deal with the gamble and possibly running into the same problem.
please help
 
PB'laster. Or there's this other stuff that actually freezes the rust. You then tap the bolt with a hammer and it should loosen up to undo it.
 
ya i got some i think im on my third coat of it i have yet to try and take it off im basically saturating it a lot to hopefully guarantee success
and its also giving me a long enough break to cool down and not through a rock through my window lol
 
I have two spare lower bolts, but you can also use a 9/16" grade 8 as I just checked with my stock lower arms, I seem to remember using a 7/16" grade 8 for the uppers but I don't have stock arms to check for you, I'll search around for some upper bolts to measure for you, you can have them if you need them.
