A Tough Act to Follow

150 TUNER TIPS
Have you ever looked at another enthusiast’s ride and noticed something unique, yet very clever, that made the vehicle stand out or perform better and thought, “Why didn’t I think of that?” Well, we’ve done some of the homework, legwork and research to provide you with a similar advantage. We scoured the tuning shops and interrogated the pros to find out what tips they have done that our readers could apply to their own vehicles.

MOD MOTOR 4-PLAY
Performance enthusiasts are a funny bunch. They all seem to agree that “as much as possible” is the correct answer when asked, “How much power do you want?” But they certainly
disagree about the best way to get there.

Honoring a Legend
The 75th Annual Grand National Roadster Show went down from January 31 to February 2, 2025, and for those who live and breathe speed, this one hit different. ARP Racing Products turned their booth into a full-blown tribute to land speed legend George Poteet, who passed away last year, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire.

The Risks of Rock Climbing in Motorsports
In a sport where the object is to climb over as many rocks as possible, there is some inherent danger of damage. After all, the rock giveth, but the rock taketh away, too. They do this in many ways such as crushed body parts and other components, but thankfully companies such as Kilby Enterprises are there to take away as much of the danger to your rig as possible.
Kilby Enterprises: Innovative Products for Your Rig
Kilby Enterprises makes many cool products, such as their On Board Air systems, but they also produce some heavy-duty skid plates that are designed to keep the rocks from inflicting pain on you and your rig.
Installation of Kilby’s Protective Products
Recently, we watched as the Kilby crew added a host of their protective products to this new Unlimited. From their heavy-duty front bumper to their gas tank skid plate, Kilby offers not only protection, but also some style as well to the vulnerable portions of the Jeep. And the best part is that the parts (with the possible exception of the gas tank skid plate) are easily installed. Even the gas tank skid plate is not all that difficult to install, but it does require the removal of the tank to do the job. In fact, they had the entire job done in a day. Sure, they do have a little practice at this, but the average at-home enthusiast can still do everything in less than a weekend.
Follow Along for the Ultimate Protection
So, follow along as this Unlimited gets the protection it needs to tackle any trail and still get the occupants home in time for that planned BBQ meal.
