Saw AVATAR in 3D today, very ,very good movie even though I was expecting it to be a kids movie. First 3D I've seen like that. There are a bunch coming out now in 3D....Alice in Wonderland, How to Train a Dragon, couple others.
Got my new HU installed in my Tahoe this evening. Now just need to pickup my new front speakers and make brackets to install my CB in the CD hole.

does anyone know of a good place to pick up center caps. Just got a set of used steel wheels and need the center caps. Looked at summit but could not believe that they were $10 a piece.

"Center caps" Leave them off !! the cheap chrome metal/plastic will just rust and pit then peal and look like _hit in a week !!! :JEEPIN:

yodejt02 · **Posted:** Sat Jan 16, 2010 11:25 pm

I thought you needed those. Its ok to have that part exposed to road grime and water?

1996xj · **Posted:** Sat Jan 16, 2010 11:41 pm

Clean the center of the axle's front and rear with a wire brush, get a heavy duty flat spray paint, remove the wheel's and get to work!! :JEEPIN:

Center cap's won't keep out water when you run creek's or deep water !! I haven't had center cap's on my XJ in year's !!!

Ok will do! Hopefully I can get these on before the 23rd!

yodejt02 · **Posted:** Sat Jan 16, 2010 11:47 pm

what exactly are those center caps supposed to cover? are they just for looks. Sorry guys, of all the car stuff I know this one was still a mystery to me

1996xj · **Posted:** Sat Jan 16, 2010 11:56 pm

Yep !! mostly LOOK's !! Center cap's do help some to keep out mud and water from getting between you'r hub and axleshaft's, but if you off road like most of us, center cap's will hold mud and water and will rust up the axleshaft and hub then the cap's will start to rust and look like crap quick !! I just paint the center's and after wheeling then hose out any mud or crap out of the center's and forget about it !!! :JEEPIN:

thanks Scott! now I am in the know. Just give it a hose job.

Scott doesn't know anything! :shock:

They don't look like crap until 330 days later :goink:

I think they help protect the rim from boulders... Plus if you love paint like I do.....It gives you an excuse to huff some paint! :BANANA:

Oh and Don't call it a CAR! :banghead:

The center caps on my Tahoe are statring to look horrible with rust, but shiny aluminum wheels look like crap without them IMO. Steels look good, polish doesn't.
Puking the after effect of too much huffing??? :goink:
