    Hey guys. I was wondering if you have come across a quality Clinometer/compass combo. I have seen a handful of them that are absolute garbage according to their reviews (Smittybilt, Rugged Ridge, Rampage, Outland). They are less than three stars and have several issues. I just wanted to know what you guys run in your rigs and any issues you have had or have not had and what kind of price range you have come across. I have a 2003 Wrangler Sahara. Thanks in advance.

    Ive used an Inclometer app on my phone. Seemed much more accurate than the others, but you have to have a mount for the phone.

    I think I use about the cheapest thing you can get. I have a lev-o-gage which is mounted right above the rear view mirror. I don't need anything to tell me about how steep a hill or a drop is, I need to know when my lean is an issue. Basically, when I am leaning really hard to the side I look up and check to see if I am REALLY tilted or just "feeling" tilted. I just want to know if it is really time to panic or just close to it. lol

    Don't laugh...it works for me.... :der:

    Note: If I get to the 45 degree mark I am going to need Febreze.
