Meet B.O.B.
Jeep’n about in B.O.B. (AKA: Bucket of Bolts), searching for new adventures.
A dude & a Jeep
I’m just a dude who really digs Jeeps and outdoor adventures.
I have taken countless photos over the years of my adventures ranging from rocking climbing, white water canoeing, backpacking, mountain biking, etc…
But by far my favorite and most enduring favorite activity is hanging with the wife, dogs and Jeep’n. Whether it’s just a drive through our little town for a bite to eat or some place that takes us off the beaten path for a new adventure… being in a Jeep makes it all so much more fun!
So I decided to build this website to keep track of photos, videos, and short stories about some of my favorite memories.
When I first got my Jeep I promised myself that I would not upgrade any parts unless it wore out or I broke something.
There were a few things I didn’t wait too long to add to my Jeep, such as a net system to keep the dogs in, a set of bumpers and a lift kit that I recently install. But other than that – the Jeep has remained stock for many years.
Over the years I’ve also done quite a bit of research to find tips, specs, and how to videos, to get the most out of my Jeep… resources I’ve found useful. Hopefully someone else will find them useful as well.

Jeep TJ DIY Shifter Boot
So I decided to stitch up a new shifter boot for my TJ to replace my older hand-made boot. The older boot was nice, but the leather material I used before was a bit on the thick side. This new boot is much more plush and makes shifting so much easier – with zero binding […]
Jeep TJ DIY Floor Mats
So I got tired of looking for a set of floor mats for my Jeep TJ, to replace the lousy set I have now that always slide around on the floor boards. Every set of floor mats I’m interested in are currently out of stock or too expensive (to consider at this time), and I […]
A Bit of Inner Fender Work
The front inner fender wells of my Jeep are rust free, but the paint has slowly been wearing away from rocks dings and general road grim. So I decided to do a bit of preventative maintenance to protect them from future rust problems, but also to make the Jeep look better in the process. I’ve […]
