    New Rear Springs?

    You can give Deaver a call and have some progressive rate coils made based on how much extra weight you normally carry. On road ride doesn't suffer, and loaded you'll get no more sag. Sent from my G870a on 38's.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I know how that is. Decided to redo my movie room, and it took twice as long and cost 3x more than planned. It was this girl I've been seeing that threw my brake fluid out, even my ex-wife knew better than to throw away anything automotive related. I'll admit, the bottle looked 20 years old but...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Installed some Speed Bleeders and afterwards realized that the bottle of brake fluid I set out last night is now gone. Walked over to the neighbors(a mile and a half away) and was able to get an unopened bottle of brake fluid, which I traded a bottle of gear oil for lol. You might be a redneck...

    Drove it to the back of the farm to put out a couple deer stands. The deer have been everywhere out here, this might be a good deer season. Sent from my G870a on 38's.

    I did a bunch of mods and didn't get to go wheeling in between. My first trip to N GA after everything was funny. My wheeling buddies were making jokes until the hillclib out of a small Creek. I Swapped my OME 926/947's on Bilsteins for 927/948's on OME's, added another conduit nut(3 ring...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Oh yeah, it's going to be funny to see the reactions when I'm out on the trail. Real badass-ness doesn't bling bling, or make you the coolest rig at the mall. It's when I hit the trails and flick those 2 switches and let the arb's and many years of wheeling experience do work. Guy that has...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Getting ready to put my new stickers on I had made. I named my rig Kroger Buggy when I first got it, which will fit a lot better after the SAS but whatever. Had 2 smallish stickers made that I'm putting on the cargo area side windows. They say Kroger Buggy(same font as their logk) and have a...

    Bump Stop Removal

    Mine disintegrated, so all I had to do was put the new ones in. Y'all gonna laugh, but KY jelly works good for that kinda stuff. Sent from my G870a on 38's.

    KJ Tri-Angulated Bolt On 4 Link from JBA

    Tom, do you think JBA would sell just the axle mount itself? I thought I'd mention something with the heim that some of you have asked about. Use graphite powder to lube them and they'll live a long quiet life. You never want to use any type of thick grease or anything that attracts dust...

    So i ordered bilstein 5100 for 4 inch lift on 2.5 inch coil spring..

    You'll be fine, pull your rear springs with the new shocks installed, and lift the axle until a) you get tire to fender contact or b)the shock bottoms out. Now measure between the spring pad and jounce bumper mount and that will be how much you need to extend your bumps tops. The factory jounce...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Got a few things done on the front end that I've been wanted to get to. New extended breather hoses. Changed the fluid in both axles, decided to check the rear pattern again while I was at it. Put new front driveshaft heads on, new rear u joints, and changed the tcase fluid. I was got it...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Yea, I bought my rig for $500 from my sister after my TJ was totaled, she hit a ditch with the front passenger tire but had minimal damage besides the steering. I'm not 100% sure it was square with the frame to begin with. After 2 decent hits, I can see it loosening itself. No damage besides a...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I went wheeling yesterday and slid my passenger front tire into a gully. Tried to unlock the front Arb in time but I was already sliding so I doubt it would've helped. It felt like the rig was crabs walking down the road. I spent a few hours with simple green and a pressure washer, I hate...

    We used to lol. I've been pimpn' since been pimpn' since been pimpn', and it ain't take long to figure things out. Not sure what it is about the river at 3am, but next thing you know she's got her clothes hung up on a tree. [emoji817] Sent from my G870a on 38's.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Years ago I took a girl I met at the bar down to the river to do some river stuff. A truck full of creepy redneck women got stuck in their 90'ish 2wd f150. I said I'd try to get them out but I told them they'd have to hook the strap up since I had my good clothes on. Thankfully the girl that...

    Looking for metal impeller water pump?

    I always replace the hoses, tstat, and radiator cap when replacing a wp or radiator. My timing cover was also leaking so I had to replace the coolant passage o-rings, crank seal, and re-rtv the cover. Not bad considering the original lasted 220k miles. Sent from my G870a on 38's.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Did a 4wd launch at the stoplight on a 4dr civic SI. I put about 3 carlengths on him almost instantly and kept pulling. I let off around 70, and of course he goes flying by at 100mph like he was doing something. I think I was more surprised than he was lol. He didn't even have any bs excuses...

    Can we get a pic of whatever you did up front? I'm interested in what you did to take care of the cv angles(cradlendrop?) and control arm angles. Sent from my G870a on 38's.
