AC Window Units
Probably developed a leak and the refrigerant is low or gone. Not worth it to repair unless you can do it yourself and have a refrigerant licenses and the proper tools. Check to make sure the filter and coil is not clogged with dust.

Jeep Wranglers
I screwed rubber from a mountian bike tire to the rear wheels of my daughters power wheels jeep. Before the forest roads opened for the summer up here I let her drive it for a few miles (I carried an extra battery) up and down one of the closed roads. She had a blast

Jeep Wranglers
Side question for TJ owners. Anyone have an aftermarket cat back exhaust? My stock muffler is rusted out and won't pass inspection. I'm looking for something that sounds close to stock but preferably made of stainless

Yup and so did GI Joe. Two American icons. The real question is what do you drive?

Vaultek LifePod
I have a few of the Hornady rapid safes and am very happy with them. One of them is in an area with no power so I just use the battery power and change it every 6 months. I could not be happier with them.

Is your friend Ryan? Extremterrain.com Is a good one Morris 4x4.com is also another good one When looking at lift kits I recommend old man emu. My wrangler rides better than stock and 100% of the suspension is old man emu. There is litterally nothing stock as far as the suspension and steering on my jeep.

home gardening?
I tilled and amended my raised beds this weekend and will be planting potatoes today, the rest of the seeds have been started, I put them out on the deck during the day but bring them in when its to cold like last night. Another week or two and I should be out of frost danger.

Jeep Wranglers
Can't tell you how many times I heard stories like this when I was doing autobody. Many people fail to realize that the plastic bumpers often just pop back out but many times there is a lot of damage underneath.

Jeep Wranglers
06 wrangler here build for mild to medium offroad use but i mostly cruze forest and logging roads. You can get everything you want from quadratec.com and they are right in Westchester PA so shipping is usually next day delivery or you can go and pick it up. Also keep an eye out for their ding and dent sale. Its a tent sale and you can get some really good deals and it's basically a jeep show in the parkinglot. Personally I bought a used stock jeep that had the factory options I wanted and then built it to how I wanted it for my uses. When you buy a jeep someone elce built you have no idea of the quality of components installed or how hard it was beat on. Also I'm a car guy and like to do all the work myself With that said if your just looking for a soft top, lift and wheels it sounds like your looking for a "mall crawler" instead of a "rock crawler" and since most mall crawlers have never been off road or beat on it might be cheaper for you to buy one already built. If you do end up lifting the jeep do your self a favor and spend the money on a quality kit because if you don't you will end up with death wobble and or sever driveline vibrations FYI JEEP stands for Just Empty Every Pocket Welcome to another money pit...

A question about Clinton WMA rifle range
Its a hunting range for hunters to practice at and your not allowed to hunt with handguns or 9mm carbines in NJ. Unless you can find 9mm bullets less than 80 grains that are soft point or expanding lead core. No science needed. As for the spinner targets I completely agree with you.

Gunsmith
@Pizza Bob is the guy to ask about S&W smiths but your probably not going to find many in NJ let alone Paramus. You might want to consider sending it to an out of state smith.

Tell me more about what light you use and do you have any pics of your setup? I'd like to get an earlier start because my season is so short up here.

SpaceX, 'murica baby!
I've seen a few launches from a distance in the West Palm Beach area including one at night while off the coast while fishing for swordfish. I was actually fighting a 300lb Sword and just stopped reeling and watched the show.

Gun cleaning, where do you stand?
It depends on the gun for me. As others have stated some of my .22 semi autos won't run dirty. My main 2 hunting shotguns just get wiped down with oil when I get home, I don't think of cleaned the barrel of either in a few years. I have several very old guns that are worth a bit or are sentimental and they get a full detail cleaning every time they get shot. For my defensive guns they get lightly cleaned wiped down and lubed after a shooting session but before I leave the range and then run a mag through to confirm everything is is in working order. The guns that don't get shot at all get wiped down and oiled twice a year.

Henry Big Boy X Model
First off no you should not need to man handle a lever action. I learned to shoot on a 1970 Marlin 39a. I wasent a man and had no problem operating it. I agree that Henry would definitely repair or more likely replace and gun that was not right. You would know better than most here on the inner workings of Henry anyway. As for the quality of remlins, in the beginning it was really bad but I've heard they are getting better and recently shot a new remlin 3030 and it was very accurate and cycled perfectly out of the box without cleaning or lube. In my opinion I'd say that Henry and Remlin are of equal quality when it comes to fit and finish. Both are good but neither are as nice as a JM Marlin

Transporting a gun
@Decastro458 the only one wrong in this thread was greenday. Best thing you can do is put him on your ignore list. As you will see if you stick around he's just a troll here to spread misinformation. I legally transported handguns in my jeep wrangler often when I lived in NJ. As @SmittyMHS, @Smokin .50 and @WP22have already stated just put the handgun in some sort of container and out of your reach and your GTG. Also its perfectly legal to transport LOADED mags just keep them out of the gun.

Show us your 1911's
Been there, its a shithole. Yes but after moving to a free state I've found that most private sales between strangers the buyer and seller both get copys of a bill of sale that includes the serial# (kinda like a COE) and if the purchaser does not have a ccw permit the seller often will require the transfer to take place at an FFL. So there may be a paper trail even with private sales. As for the rest of your post I don't give two shits if Murphy knows what I legally own. Whats he gonna do about it when I live in NH? I agree its none of Zuckerbergs business but what can he do with the information besides make a list?
