    Survey on AT tires being used

    Toyo Open Country AT3s. Have them on both the JL and KJ. And the Nokain Outpost ATs on the LR3. All are great tires, I'd say the Toyos are a little more aggressive and do better off road, but still are very quiet and light weight. The Nokains are silent on road and ride great.

    Front LCA boot / ball joint replacement

    That's a rip. Take the knuckle out and buy a new ball joint and take the knuckle to a shop to have them press it out and the new one in. Should be like $100 per side with parts.

    Can I pull a Trailer?

    Towed a 6x12 uhaul from FL to WI and had no issues. The KJ was pretty stable at highway speeds. 8 MPG though!

    Let me guess...you got either a turbo Renegade, turbo Cherokee or an Ecoboost F150!

    Swing gate swap not working properly

    Try disconnecting the sensor. It's right by the latch for the glass. Is it saying the glass is open or the tailgate is open?

    Swing gate swap not working properly

    The sensor for the flipper glass in mine went bad and did the same stuff - always thought it was open, alarm going off, lights on etc. Just unplugged it and it's been fine since. Nothing seems impacted by it, still locks normally.

    200,000 mile club

    They are Moab wheels off a TJ Rubicon - tire size is 245/75/16. They are a little wider and sit out a little further than stock.

    Recommended front and rear gear oil with lift and 245/75/16 tires

    What he said! I just run straight Dino 85w140 in mine, no mixing. No issues even in the frigid temps.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Last night: finished fluid filming all the holes I could find underneath. Doesn't look bad for being 18 years old with 224k miles!

    Buyers Remorse Open Country - 245 75 r16

    Here's mine with 245/75/16 Toyo Open Country AT3s with the 927/948 combo. Little bit of rubbing in reverse on tight turns, but been that way 13 years. Not going to change that now! Love the tires.

    Mystery noise...need troubleshooting help

    Rear CV on the front driveshaft? Mine had a similar noise and it was that. It sounded like if you rub your finger around the rim on an empty glass. Then it turned into a chain dragging noise as the joint got worse and worse.

    Creak/knock from driver's side wheel when turning left.

    Does it happen over bumps going straight too? I had an upper shock mount fail and create a hell of a squeak that I had trouble diagnosing. What the mount looks like when it fails: That being said, the turning thing still makes me think a ball joint. When I had my KL, I had a LBJ fail that...

    Rack replacement

    Could be. Doesn't last long for me and you need to make sure that if you put anything under the rack, you do it on both bushings or you will mess up your alignment.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Those are a lot of fun. What soap did you use? Tip: fill the lance with hot water first and then add the soap. Makes it foam better and you don't loose half your soap filling it! Took me awhile to figure that out, but you're smarter than me!
