As a newbie, what's you all's consensus on the best two or three catalogs that I should get subscribed to, for parts & accessories? Thanks,
David

Finishing a 4.0 Cyl.head swap, Just got an AX-15 NP231J combo to replace the busted t-case and craptacular BA10/5. Adding Nutter bypass. Probably more to come before it is back as a DD!

Throw in JCWhitney in there too... since the subscriptions are all free, might as well just get 'em all. Am I the only one who has them in the bathroom?

If you live in the Midwest, you might want to add Baseline 4x4 Outfitters. They are out of Fort Wayne Indiana. They carry or distribute for just about every Manufacturer and can get anything. www.baseline4x4.com

4WD and Quadratec sell enough different parts to build your own Jeep, so definitely those two, and as long as there free, you might as well get all of the catalogs, they're a good way to pass the time when your bored

I think IMO if I compare 4wd and quadratec, quadratec is over priced and expecive on soem things compared to 4wd.
I like being able to drive to Ohio to 4WD and go in the show room!!

I'll tell you guys what: I got my 4wd Hardware and Quadratec catalogs....found the stuff that I wanted in both of them, then did a side-by-side comparison. Quadratec has more stuff that I want, and when compared directly to 4wd Hardware, the prices are slightly less. Quadratec has my business. Eat a peach,
David
