Rear springs needed to replace 4 inch JBA springs

I bought the JBA tommud econolift when I first got the jeep. over the years shocks were replaced a few times (old man emu are the best bang for my buck), kk forks added etc. As for front springs-...- hadtomer

what's the best passenger side cv axle?
both cv axles are here- cardone and trakmotive. cardone says "made in china". trakmotive does not say. Funny story- In the USA you have tons of liberty's so when a part is discontinued you have a problem cause there are 1000s of folks who need it. In ISRAEL - we have like 100 liberty's left...- hadtomer

Hey guys and gals- many years of wheeling with rubicons have taken their toll...lol... and i broke a passenger side CV axle. It rattles like a tin can. that is no surprise to me - I have a front DTT and I am running 4.10s and a 3.5 inch lift- and I have had the factory MOPAR CV for many years...- hadtomer

this has not been a good day for me- broken JBA UCA
after 6 years of use- I broke a UCA (dont mind the crap plastidip paint on the UCAs). Lucky for me- i was doing about 25 mph in the desert and suddenly the kj pulled hard left. I was headed into a boulder but was lucky to stop in time. I thought a lower balljoint broke but it was worse. the...- hadtomer

Hello - strange phenomenon i cant explain. when i travel at about 100 kph (that's about 60 mph for you americans) I started to notice that when i turn the wheel just a bit- to switch lanes for example - i get a wobble. This does not happen when i turn the steering wheel more- like when i turn...- hadtomer

bad clunk over bumps following front bilstein install
after 3 terrible weeks- the clunk was detected using a gopro - its the UCA! as it turns out the UCA kept banging on the spring. lucky for me- a friend of mine had spacers made -so i got those asap and after the install the clunks went away.- hadtomer

bad clunk over bumps following front bilstein install
yup. wheelnut - you are right - and what you wrote does make a lot of sense. of course i am aware that the jeep is not exactly stock. and of course there is "too much lift" - heck - it is just an IFS. the spring pads are old. the thing that I cant understand is - there is quite a bit of droop...- hadtomer

bad clunk over bumps following front bilstein install
Its at the shop - so it will take a while. but anyway- it truly is something i cant understand- I have had this thing for 5 years. I have bolted and unbolted every nut and bolt. almost everything is re-built and JBA'd (lol) and still - always something new.- hadtomer
