k ins here in Houston are ridiculous...
I wanted to put my jack on the rack, too so I used the Hi-lift tube attachments (expensive but stainless and well made) to secure it. To prevent theft (what is the world coming to when someone might steal a jack?!), I used a bicycle cable lock with a combination. No theft after a few months and stays secure on the trail. I take the jack down every few months to oil it and make sure it still works.
Welcome!!
I put mine on the roof rack cross ways, as it is lots easier to get it down alone. I also just redid the entire rack setup, so mow I am sporting a 4' wide solar panel, a 7 gallon gas tani and 3m of fiberglass traction mats on top. I still have some room for other things, like my fishing rod mounts and shovel mount...
I try no to keep anything on the outside that might get stolen. One of my friends had the lightbar on his heep stolen while in his driveway! I had an idiot stick and HF crane stolen off of Gerdie earlier this year. They stopped long enough to yank those things out of the bed and go to the next spot.
That being said, a braided cable is hard to cut. Just make it a pain to try to steal. If it takes time to swipe, most likely they'll move on to someone else.

Hello all, first time poster here. I recently inherited an FJ from my girlfriend's late father who was killed in a tragic accident outside of Houston about a year ago. It's a 2013 4.0L V6 56k miles with a rebuilt salvage title (due to a collision but). It's in pretty great condition with the...
Hello from Pittsburgh bought an 07 bought a month ago. Love this vehicle. Had a Wrangler before thought that was the best ended up being a big disappointment! Looking forward to taking it off road soon. Been out with my friend with his in rousch Creek had a blast!
Good evening everyone, just joined after too much time lurking here. Came to the dark side after 35 years of Jeep ownership, grabbed a used '07 Titanium with 90K shes in great shape without a scratch, some undercarriage rust, but this is Pennsylvania. This site has a great knowledge base and has...
Hello everyone! I'm glad to be a part of this forum, it's been a ton of help already when I was shopping for an FJ. A special thanks to Mr Buffett for his guides.
I live in the Amarillo TX area, so if anyone knows of some good wheeling spots for beginners close by let me know!
So yesterday I...
I've admired the FJ's unique appearance since it first came out and I was teenager. About a month ago I finally captured one, and I couldn't be happier. It took some convincing my wife though that it is, in fact, a great future family vehicle haha - e.g. no carpet means easy clean up of spills...
