^ yep, rack and pinion.
I removed it when I did the Warn hub install last year in Aug or so. I did repack the bearings and should've done the rotors too.
I'm not too worried about the hubs as I don't think they're...
I'm 100% sure that I didn't over-tighten the axle nut, too little was my concern but I'll redo it just to be sure.
I might even bring it in for an inspection by a mechanic- it's a good idea to let...
You mean there should NOT be any play at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock but 12-6o'clock play is OK? I saw 0mm axial play in the FSM but wasn't clear what they meant. If it is 3-9o'clock they're referring to...
Turns out the passenger side sits about .5" higher so that's at 35.5" - I thought with the big battery on that side it might be lower.
I had another quick look at the front suspension and I found...
Remember this from about 2 months ago when I installed the AC springs and I measured the height at 36" in front? Well I'm sad to say that they've sagged down to 35" and that's with the OME spacers :(...
As always, great info and the words of wisdom- thanks!
It was great to meet you too Travis- your TJ is super clean and nicely done. Thanks for the compliment and I agree with you on over building. I think a lot of us are just being prepared for what we...
Great to see you over here Cris! Thanks for the perspective, it's great to hear it from someone who was there watching and helping. Man I'll tell you the confidence definitely shakes when you're the...
Well said and that would be the smarter thing to do. Are those All-Terrains 31s or 32s in the pics? My 31s unfortunately only measure about 29.5" or so. It's not a true 31" just that it's the closest...
Haha, trust me I give myself enough grief but it's hard to justify buying another set after putting just 5k miles on my current tires. They are listed for sale so IF they sell I'll definitely be...
This past Sat I ran the Cleghorn trail with the ExPo guys, all 13 to 14 of us, of all different capabilities and varieties- more on that in a bit. Cleghorn itself is a dirt road, fairly mild but it...
Still available, make a reasonable offer.
@bigswede (before the 35"), @outofrshell, @reran - what size tires are/were you guys running?
BTW, they say you can use both 110 and 12v simultaneously and the fridge will use either (110 first). However, the way the plugs designed they clash and you can't plug them both in. Unless they...
Wow they do look very similar, I wouldn't be surprised if they aren't. I bought mine from truckfridge.com - they sell them under their badge. I paid $550 shipped to my door. The operational...
My fridge finally arrived :wings:
Here's a cut-n-paste from my build thread:
I'll admit right now that I never thought I'd buy a fridge, my ice chest worked just fine and I wasn't about to...
My fridge arrived :wings:
I'll admit right now that I never thought I'd buy a fridge, my ice chest worked just fine and I wasn't about to waste that kinda cash on a luxury like that. Afterall...
Perfect! now you have a perfectly valid reason to get that lift on it...like I said before I don't see any bad news here :)
Did you notice a difference between the 245/75/16s and the 235/85/16s, height wise, handling wise etc? I'm just wondering if it's worth it to trade up.
Thanks for the info!
PM replied, thanks!
Nice updates! I should change my spark plugs, I have no idea how old they are but it's a bit of a job.
How do you like your tire size? I'm really thinking of getting the 235/85/16s if I can sell...
^ Not seeing the bad news...it all sounds good news to me :sombrero:

Was the new Rubicon designed by Rubbermaid? :sombrero:
Seriously, what's up with that front bumper?
