Essential Summer Gear

8/5/2024

0 Comments

 
We just hit August, so I thought I would talk about some of my most invaluable gear this summer.  Of course, some of this is specific to my situation, but I am making this list long enough, so that it may give some an idea even if they aren't in my exact situation.  Of course, some of the items are great in all of the seasons, so this should not always be considered mutually exclusive.

Picture
AirPods Pro 2 -  I jumped on the bandwagon when these came down in price during Amazon Prime sales.   My wife is a bird lover, so I usually don’t listen to my outdoor speakers when we are both out because she prefers hearing the birds chirp.  Anyone else have a significant other that will all the sudden say, "I hear a Chickadee"?  This happened in a Sprouts parking lot, recently. Personally, I like listening to music, but the transparent mode makes it easy to carry on a conversation as my music plays.  In other words, she can listen to birds and I can listen to Byrds.
Picture
Roll n' Jack Jeep top removal - I bought this while it was still available.  It seems to disappear for months on end.  In my opinion, this is safer and more flexible than a hoist.  I should know because I had a hoist installed by a local carpenter and it was great for a year.  All of a sudden, I was pulling down my jeep top onto the Jeep and the screw anchoring it came out of the wall!  Luckily, I wasn't hurt, but it left a small dent on my Jeep as a reminder.  This device isn't leaving anything to chance.  
Picture
Clearly Filtered Pitcher - Who knows the contaminants we are putting in our bodies by drinking water from the tap?   Also, I don’t like adding to the plastic in the world, so this served two purposes.  The water is cleaner and I don't have a need to carry around plastic bottles.  I also added a LARQ bottle to carry around when we leave the house.
Picture
Apple Watch Ultra - obviously this works great with AirPods (I mentioned above), but it is also nice in the pool since it works with laps and it even tells you the temperature of the water… in addition to all the other features use on a daily basis.
Kindle Paperwhite - great little reader I can take anywhere.  
Picture
Pool float - This is a necessity for my pool time.  This was the least expensive model I have seen, but still does the same job as those costing $50 more.
Picture
Morning coffee - there is just something perfect about morning coffee on the deck before the day gets too hot!  The photo below is from a trip.  At home, we use a Breville Espresso Machine.
Picture
Ninja Blender - smoothies! Yum!
Picture
Alpine outdoor speakers - when out in the pool, these add some nice ambiance.  
Picture
Canon Selphy Printer - so much fun to take photos and print them out as keepsakes.   
Picture
Misting outdoor fan - too hot, this offers some relief! 
Picture
Dolphin Pool cleaner - this makes the pool so easy to clean.  
Picture
Salt water - softer water with no red eyes! 
Picture
CRKT Squid Knife with Blade Assist - I often need a knife for opening salt bags, dirt bags, and many other things out in the yard.  Love the easy action on this little fella.
Picture
Crocs/Birkenstocks - My at home shoe combo.  When doing normal stuff around the house, I like the Birkenstocks and outside, especially in rain or when in the pool, I wear the always fashionable Crocs.  
Picture
iPod classic 160gb - when I want to completely unplug and chill.  I usually use with Ety ER4P earbuds or a pair of Grado SR60s with my 160GB iPod filled with Apple Lossless files.  
Picture
Weber Spirit S-315/Big Green Egg - the combo of a gas grill and smoker is awesome!
Picture
iPhone - the camera alone is worth the price of admission.  However, music, video, communication, etc.  Around here, even the flashlight comes in handy.
Sony camera/Rokinon - I thought about adding a smaller camera this year, but went with a smaller, 35mm f2.8 lens instead.   Love this combo for walking around during the summer. 
Picture
Good Bags -  for work, I carry a backpack.  For other stuff, I carry a Billlingham Hadley 2020 Pro camera bag.  I remove the insert if I am not carrying my camera.
Picture
Projector for movies - we have a projector for outdoors (below), but usually watch the 100 inch screen indoors.  Summer movie nights are fun.
Picture
Butcherbox - for the grill, it’s a pleasure to have good quality meat and seafood.  More food than gear, but its a necessity.
iPad 13 inch M4 - more vibrant than ever and easier to get stuff done outdoors.  The pencil is great for photography edits and notes, as well.
Picture
Sunglasses - When I have my contacts in, my two main sunglasses are probably 20 years old.  A pair of Raybans that wrap around the ears (great for bumpy Jeep rides, especially for hot days when the top is off) and below a pair of Persol sunglasses ( actually I have two pair - house and car).
Picture
Oakley glasses- when my contacts are out, I like having a pair of glasses that go indoors and out.  These have progeressive lenses, so covered without needing a pair of prescription sunglasses (though I have a pair from the Shaq line I keep in the Jeep for a possible emergency situation..I also keep a pair of past year's subscription glasses).  I need to be able to drive home if my glasses break or I lose a contact.
Picture
Cuisinart ice cream - make your own with less ingredients.
Picture
Fuji film camera - I have a film camera from 1965 that my dad handed down to me.  I have never used it, but I have a roll of film on the way, so looking forwarded to seeing if it it works. I have a more recent Canon P&S film camera here if the Fujika is a bust.  For summer, I always like to try something new and this year, one of those things is film.  
Picture
Adidas - These are probably my perfect summer shoe for leaving the house.  I bought a pair of Greats, that are better leather, but I still just prefer the iconic looks and the fit&feel of the Adidas.  
Picture
Game Controller - I am not a big gamer or anything, but with all the retro games coming to iOS and iPad OS, I was happy to have a controller that would fit my iPhone (in case) and my iPad (via an augmentation to the controller).
Picture
Pets and wife - Summer isn't the same without my little companions.
Picture
I am sure I left something off this list.  If I missed an essential, please let me know.  Enjoy your final days of summer!

Cab Curtain and Cargo Cover for Jeep

8/28/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
I mentioned that I was given a Trektop NX from a coworker.  He also gave me acargo cover and cab curtain (Note: Amazon is showing the curtain as working with 07-12 Jeeps, but I checked the website and it says it works with 07 to current)  Hard to believe that he was so generous, when I didn't even know him prior to him giving me his leftover Jeep parts after he sold his Jeep.  I was lucky to know a coworker than knew him, though.  Anyway, I believe these pieces are both made by Pavement Ends.  The pieces fit my Jeep Wrangler JKU great and I was able to use the Trektop tailgate bar to get a great fit on the back of the Jeep.  

Note:  I get paid commissions for purchases made through any links to Amazon products in this post.

The cabin curtain gives you some extra protection during the rain and keeps it from getting too windy in the main cabin.  This is the first time I have had it on the Jeep and got a lot of rain.  I had shoved some towels behind the seats to cover areas that were exposed to the elements and it worked without much of a hitch.  Water did gather on the top of the cargo cover, but it rolled off when I drove the Jeep.   The towel was damp when I pulled it out when I got home from work.

One thing I like about the pair is that the cargo curtain slides onto the cover via a ridge, so you get a nice seal between where the curtain meets the cover.   The only downside to using the curtain, other than losing some of the open air feeling, is that it takes some time to get it on with the Trektop NX "Bikini".  There is a bar that goes across the back of the cover that needs to be removed to get the buckle of the strap through.  It is very tight.  I was able to pull the buckle through when I removed the curtain, but even that took a bit of work.  I may use the cargo cover without the curtain if I am pretty sure we won't have rain.  
Picture
All in all, I would rather have my Trektop NX windows in during a downpour, but this worked out fine for the time being.  It wasn't worth getting up early, removing these pieces, and putting in the windows, but I did spend about 30 minutes removing these pieces and putting back in the windows when I got home from work.  We are supposed to have some rain pretty much every day for the rest of the week.  

Jeep Wrangler thoughts

Now that I have a few months with the Jeep, I am glad I went this route rather than getting another BMW.  While I still love BMW, I like the idea of having a vehicle that can get through rough terrain including flooded streets (common in Memphis), seeing over traffic (thanks to the lift and 35s), go from hard top to soft top within a couple of hours, or just pull the top off completely and have that open air feeling.  Not to mention that my soft top is like a "Transformer" in the way it goes from bikini mode, to flip back "sun rider" mode, to fastback and the way it allows the use of the cargo cover/cab curtain combo, etc.   It is ridiculously versatile.  The gas milage isn't very good, but it uses the cheap stuff rather than premium, so it saves money there.  I also like the Jeep Wave and feeling like part of a community.   

Jeep ("Just Empty Every Pocket") Wranglers can be taxing for the wallet if you want to customize them.   I was lucky to find someone to donate a few pieces that I could use and it saved me several hundred dollars, so it was hard not to take that "saved" money and spend it on one of my "wishlist" items (and I have several), but I am trying to spread out the cost over a few years before I pay it off.  The problem is my wishlist is growing faster than I checking stuff off. :)  I never had that issue with any of my BMWs, they were great off the lot and I really didn't feel like they needed to be changed.   Of course, the stock Jeep is great, too.  It just begs to be modified, though.  That is really where some of the fun comes in, but having a stock soft top Jeep with the top down is what I remember from my first Jeep, so it ain't all bad!

Some new updates for the Jeepster

8/13/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
As you may remember, in my last list of updates, I also added a list of some of the things I wanted to add next:

1. Barricade Rear Bumper
2. Smittybilt Winch
3. Backup Camera
4. CB  - still deciding on a model (will most likely have it installed with the camera)
5. Teraflex Big Rotot Kit
​
6.  Side steps  (it would make it easier for my girlfriend to get in the Jeep)
7.  Soft Top of some kind.  I am hoping Bestop comes out with a top that has the same features at the NX Glide, but with zippers in the back window.  
8. A light bar for my front bumper
9.  Misch Big Boy Brackets - these are still on my radar
10.  ​Tuffy 2011+ JK Deluxe Security Deck Enclosure


Note:  I get paid commissions for purchases made through any links to Amazon products in this post.
The list above is still very close to what I want to do in the future, but the order has changed.  I actually don't know if I will add an aftermarket rear bumper anytime soon.  I am pretty happy with the stock bumper right now.  However, I was lucky enough to have someone give me a used Trektop NX.  It was near the top of my list of soft tops, so when I had the opportunity to get it for free, I jumped at the chance.  This gives me the ability to put my money elsewhere rather than needing to put it in a soft top.  

Since I got the top and it is getting near "top off" weather, I went ahead and got the Harken Hoister installed.  

Note:  I get paid commissions for purchases made through any links to Amazon products in this post.
Picture
As you can see from the photo above, I can pull my Jeep into the garage, but it is a bit tight.  I have raised it a bit since snapping this photo and it gives me a bit more room.  My handyman, wanted it to be aligned with the stud on the wall that has the mechanism that hoists it up and down and he centered the screws holding the top in the beams, so he said it was the sturdiest placement for it.     I cut a couple pool noodles to use for some cushion if I pull in too far by accident.  Anyway, it does the job of holding up the hard top while I run with the soft top until winter and will make it easier to trade out tops when winter comes or when we want the hard top on the Jeep for a trip.  The hardest part will be removing the soft top, but that goes with the territory.

Security 

As I mentioned on my wishlist, I wanted a way to lock stuff in the back when the top is off or when I am just running with the soft top.  I decided on the 299-01 from Tuffy.  I was going to get the model that has a top that pops up, but the 299-01 has more room and I wanted the ability to store my Freedom Panels in that area when I am running with the hard top.  Below is a picture of the 299-01 installed with my Freedom Panels in their bag:
Picture
As you can see in the photo, they fit fine.  I also bought a couple inexpensive nets to keep backpacks or anything small I have back there secure (for above and below the unit).  Not sure how they will hold up since they were so cheap, but they are working great for right now.  My Jeep came without a subwoofer, so I can store some medium to small stuff under the netting in the cubby hole in the floor.

I also got a magnetized LED that comes on when it senses motion, so when I open the tailgate, the light automatically comes on.
Picture
The pic above shows what the storage enclosure looks like with the back door shut.  It is a perfect fit.  That meant it took some maneuvering to get it in, but it is held down with two screws, so it should be somewhat easy to get in and out of the Jeep on the rare occasion that it is necessary.

Trektop NX

I just put the Trektop NX on this morning and it has been raining most of the day, so will have another post with pics later.  However, the conversion to soft top has occurred.   Below is a stock photo from Amazon:
Picture

The Updated List 

1.  Misch Big Boy Brackets - these are still on my radar
2.  Under Seat Security (will get this put in with the brackets above)
3.  Backup Camera
4.  Cobra 75WXST  (will have this put in when I add the backup camera)
5.  Smittybilt Winch
6.  Teraflex Big Rotot Kit
​
7.  Side steps  (it would make it easier for my girlfriend to get in the Jeep)
8.  A light bar for my front bumper and a couple cube lights for the windshield pillars (still not sure I want a 50 inch light bar above the windshield, at least while the Jeep is the daily driver.)
9.  Smittybilt Trail Jack Mount and Hi Lift Jack
10.  Random accessories (there are always odd and ends I like to add to the Jeep, so I put this as a place holder for those types of items).

Note:  I get paid commissions for purchases made through any links to Amazon products in this post.

I will eventually add a rear bumper, but it doesn't make sense to put money in that before the items above.  All in all, I am pretty happy with the current setup.  I do want everything on the list above, but all of the necessities on my original list have been added, so I will add the items above as time and money are available.  The first two listed items will probably be next up on the agenda since it will give me more space in the driver seat and extra storage inside the vehicle under the seat for when I have the back windows out.  The backup camera would be higher on the list, but it is so expensive for what you get that it is hard for me to pull that trigger right now.

Quadratec Diver Down Seat Covers

5/27/2017

1 Comment

 
Picture

The Sahara Cloth Seats

First off, I should disclose the fact that Iove the fabric seats that came with my 2017 JKU Sahara.  They look great, but I was worried about how they would wear, especially if I got caught in the rain with the top off.  

As you can see in the slideshow below, they have beautiful stitching on front and back.

Diver Down Seat Covers

Well, the problem with cloth is that it doesn't typically wear well.  In my last Jeep, I got caught in the rain with the top off on more than one occasion and I think Neoprene wears better.  If it fades or gets ripped or if the inside of my Jeep gets covered in mud, I can simply pull these out, rinse them off, let them dry, and put them back in or replace them.  

So now that I determined that I wanted seat covers, I started looking around.  The Diver Downs were the cheapest, well made, covers I could find that has a company that stands behind them.  Unlike my last covers, these are thick in front and back.  They have tons of straps to make sure they stay put, as well.  They also have pockets in the back of the front seat, so I can still put my umbrella in there.

As for the color, I had a hard time deciding.  Most of the teams I like are blue, so I thought about getting the Black and Blue covers.  However, I eventually decided on Red and Black.  The main reason is that red pops when it is on black.  If you have seen my Den pics, you should know that I like that combo.  I have also used it sparingly inmy office.  The other reason I chose red is that it is a common color for Jeep accessories, so I can stay with the color for grab bars, D Rings, etc.  

Below is a slide show of the new covers in my Jeep.

Problems!

Well, all was not perfect.  I had one issue with the back of the front seat headrests.   Notice in the pic below that the driver side is black on the headrest and the passenger side is red!
Picture
I sent an email to Quadratec and they are going to send me another box and I can pick out what I need and send it back.  Unfortunately, the seat covers are on backorder, so it could be a month before I get a new set.  Not a huge deal, but it does look strange if you have an eye for detail.

However, I am very happy that I spent the money on these rather than getting a no-name brand from Ebay that could have a similar issue, but without anyone to stand behind the product.

Cushioning is good?!

These do have their own cushioning.  The only issue with that is that it puts my body closer to the steering wheel and my head closer to the speaker bar.  I can live with it, but it does make me want to get the Misch Big Boy brackets, that give you a few extra inches of leg room, even more.  They are comfy, though.  I should also mention that it takes some getting used to when getting in and out of the Jeep.  You don't slide as easily across it as cloth, so you have to scoot a little harder.

I have heated seats, so I called Quadratec to be sure these would be fine with them before ordering.  I tested the seats and they take a little longer to heat up, but they generate about the same amount of heat as the regular seats.  I should also note that my Jeep did not come with side Airbags, but they have a slot in the covers for them and you can't order them without it.  Not a big deal, but worth mentioning.

Installation

I should mention that there were not any installation instructions in the box. It is easy enough to figure out how to install them, but I still ended up with one extra clip in the back without anything to attach it to.  That is my fault for putting them on at night in a dark garage.  I did realize that I need to switch the interior lights to LEDs, though!  It took me between around an hour or hour and half ( I took a break to dry off..it was also hot outside).  They fit great and look great (other than the headrest issue).

Note:  I get paid commissions for purchases made through any links to Amazon products in this post.

The Wrap Up

The Diver Down Seat Covers by Quadratec were around $160, less than half the price of some brands, but they look great and are comfy.   I am going to put some 303 protectant on them soon, so that should help with fading.  All in all, a nice, relatively inexpensive upgrade for the Jeep that will allow those factory cloth seats look new for years!

Jeep Updates

Ch-Ch-Changes

Well, I went all in with some changes to the Jeepster.   The first thing you notice in the picture above is that the wheels and tires have been changed.  I went with BF Goodrich K02s for the tires and Pro Comp 7005 wheels.   I also got a Teraflex 2.5 lift.  I also want to apologize for all the dried mud on the Jeep.  I did not get a chance to wash it before these pics.

Exterior Accessories

The pic below shows the wheel on a Smittybilt Pivot Heavy-Duty Oversize Tire Carrier.

The pic below shows the RS9000 shocks and the tire carrier:

Below is a closer look at the shocks.  You can see the dial that allows you to adjust stiffness of the ride:

A couple security features

I also got a bolt lock for the hood.  This is a safety feature and a security feature.
Picture
I also grabbed a locking gas cap.  
Picture

Superchips Flashcal

Once you add larger tires and a gear change (I also added 4.88 gears), you have to let the vehicle's computer know about it.  I bought a Superchips Flashcal for this purpose.  The upside to the Flashcal is that it can be upgraded for tuning down the road, if desired.

Interior Accessory 

I also added a 67 Designs phone holder.  You simply put a magnetic piece under the phone cover and it attaches via a magnet.  The actual holder uses a screw already in the Jeep interior to attach everything so it works perfectly with the Wrangler.

As you can see in the pic below, the arm is adjustable, so you can put your phone in your favorite position. 
Picture
Picture

The Wrap Up

I think that is the main stuff without getting too in depth with the changes.  I will update with some of my opinions on the setup after I have a week or so under my belt, but wanted to get some pics up while I had some time.

Wrangler Must Have Accessories

4/22/2017

2 Comments

The Criteria

So one of the best/worst things about having a Jeep is the ability to customize it to your needs.  Of course, the Jeep has about a billion different accessories that can be bought to make it fit your every desire.   Unless you want to be broke, you have to make a list of stuff you want to buy and then put it in some sort of order.

I have been putting together a list of stuff I want in the short term and possibly some options for the future.  As I mentioned in a prior post, I don't currently plan to take it off road, at least to any extent that would require a replacement of the stock 70R18 tires.    

The Preliminary List

I won't be driving my Jeep much until I turn in the keys for my BMW 3 series in May (I have a lease and want to use as many miles that I bought before turning it in), but I am making a list of the '"necessities" I want to add to the Wrangler.  Here is my current list, but it could change when I start using it as my daily driver.

1.  Tire Cover - I alreadybought a tire cover.  I know that a lot of people prefer to keep the tire naked, but I think it will be in better shape if it is covered, especially in the hot sun.  Since I like photography, I bought the cover below and it is supposed to be delivered today.  I have not seen this particular cover around here, so I think it is unique.  
Picture
2.  Hoist - I have a hard top and I want to be able to pull it off without help and also be able to store in in the garage by pulling it up to the ceiling.  I am still undecided, but the cheapest package I could find is the Harken 7803B Hoister Garage Storage 4-Point Lift System.  It is in the $140 range and it is recommended quite a bit on Wrangler forums. 

Note:  I get paid commissions for purchases made through any links to Amazon products in this post.
Picture
3.  Soft top - Of course, if I am going to pull off the hard top, I need something to protect me from a rain storm that comes out of nowhere, which is all too common during Memphis summers.  The top I want is about $1100.  It is Bestop's Supertop NX which is almost identical to the OEM Jeep top.  I am not sure I can buy it this year, so I may look into a Bikini top that can at least give me some coverage.  I will let you know when I make a decision about this issue.
Picture

Security Stuff

Of course, I will also want some security related accessories.  The current list is below, but it may change over time, as well.
1.  The Hood Lock - This is an absolute must.  My Jeep has a security alarm, but that doesn't help a whole lot if the criminal can open the hood and pull out the battery.  This will be one of my first purchases when I start driving the Jeep.
2.  Gas Cap Door - I don't think I will buy a locking version, but I do want something over the hole that at least makes it look more secure.
3.  Tuffy 326-01 Security Products Deluxe Security Deck Enclosure - This is similar to a trunk for a car.  It allows you to secure stuff in your Jeep with the top off.  I like the fact that it can be disassemble in a few minutes without much effort.  One of the reasons I got the Unlimited version of the Jeep was for the storage area and this will allow me to store my stuff securely and remove it when I need to. 
Picture

Wrap Up

Well, that is my current list.  I have heard that the speakers aren't great, so I may add the Kicker upgrade that a lot of folks recommend, but I will live with the stock stereo for a while to see if it is necessary.  I am curious to hear what others are adding to their Jeeps.  Obviously, if my top concern was off-roading, my list would look a lot different, but I mainly just want to have the flexibility of going with a soft top in the summer and having a mostly secure Jeep.

As a side note, I did add a black Jeep plate to the front of the Jeep.  The original dealer put holes in the bumper with their own plate, so this one was low key and covered up the holes.  I have also purchased a mount for my iPhone,  the one I bought mounts to the  standard cigarette lighter port in the dash.  It has a couple USB ports, so the iPhone can be charged when needed, as well.  It was priced at about $12, so if I don't like it, it isn't like I am out a lot of money.
