      I dunno if he's still active, but he was one of the original FSJ guys on here.
      Lots of tech articles and such by him on site.

            John Meister sold the sportside fender molds to BJs that they are using for their repops. I tried to get in there first, having tracked them down a while ago, but my negotiating ‘skills’ were not as good as theirs.

            I have much respect for John.

              Yeah John was one of the originals on the FSJ Email List before everything went to forums. He's been messing with FSJ's for a long time. Can't vouch for his book but at only $3 I'm betting you'll get $3 worth of info out of it.

                John and I are nearly neighbors still and he’s helped me out through the past few years of craziness.
                He’s more verbose with the $10 words at times, but before I was poisoned by the thief/thieves who tried to kill me and my wife to take our home, I tried to help him with the editing of it but I lost the ability to remember longer than 10 minutes for quite some time. (Almost like a stroke, due to burst blood vessels from BP shooting up to 240/160 from Chinese Fentanyl and something else that let it absorb through my skin. )
                He was there to help when it felt like I was lost. I never did finish reading it, but it’s there for me once I get the solar panels and batteries upgraded enough for year round living at my place.
                Jeep gauges are for amusement only. Any correlation between them and reality is purely coincidental.
