    Upgraded Front Lower Control Arms

    The bushings aren't cheap and paying someone to replace them will bring the bill close to what you would pay for new ones. I'm looking at a set of LCA's on ebay for 160 for the pair. Maybe if you have a press and do it yourself it may be worth it, but if not it would be more cost effective to...

    42RLE and 45RFE Transmission Filter and Gasket Info

    The ATP gasket was on point. It has the smaller holes on the corners to help hold the gasket in place. I ended up using blue loctite on all the bolts, torqued them to spec and haven't had any leaking issues.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    More like what have I done in the last 3 weeks, lol. New 245/70/16 Discoverer AT/3. New OME heavy duty springs all around, bilstein front, KYB Monomax rear. 4 wheel thrust alignment. Installed hockey pucks. Changed brake hose on drivers side and flushed brake fluid. Swapped front sway bar...

    42RLE and 45RFE Transmission Filter and Gasket Info

    I have an atp b-216 for the 42RLE. Now I'm second guessing Edit: Just confirmed on Rockauto that this is correct. Can't say anything about the other part number.

    Tranmission fastener info

    About to do a tranmission fluid change and wanted some info on the fasteners just in case. My best guess is M8X1.25 X25. Anyone have any solid info on the fasteners? Thanks!

    Lift faq: Read before asking questions!

    Bushing kit not necessary with the KYB Monomax shocks. I like the feel of them so far. Nice and tight but give a smooth ride on the road so far. Just need to test them offroad.

    Brake Bleeding

    I just picked up speed blenders. 17 a pair with discount. Easiest thing I've ever used to bleed the brakes hands down.

    Brake Bleeding

    What kind of vacuum kit are you guys using to bleed brakes? I had a cheaper kit that gave me problems getting a seal. Any recommendations?

    Front brake line how too

    Got thru it with a box wrench. Hardest part was getting the brake line threaded into the new hose. Did it last night with shop lights outside. Glad I did because I had enough time today to finish up the front and complete the rear. All I have now is to bleed and get the alignment.

    Absolutely! I've found tons of good stuff. The only problem is old mixed in with new. Find it hard sometimes to get thru it and find the latest and greatest.

    Found another one for the rear too. Use a scissor jack to jack down the hub and get as much clearance as you need without removing the sway bar. Don't need to remove the upper bump stop either.

    clevis bracket

    The eBay one is in way better shape than the one that rusted away in the jeep. Saved the time by not driving all over the state and not finding anything. Find a sand blaster and paint them if your worried about cosmetics. I had to cut the welded clevis off and believe me the rest of it was...

    Lessons learned with lift

    Just looking for clarification. There are a lot of young peeps on here and if your not specific, someone is going to get in way over there head. I'm just pointing out that there could be some misinformation floating around. I found a way that could work without taking a chance at damaging...

    Funny because peeps are preaching not to whack them with a sledge. Hitting the nut may protect the bottom edge, but could risk damage to the threads still. :Insane:

    HOW TO: Install a Frankenlift *Lots of Pictures* COMPLETE!

    100% agree with not removing the UBJ. I did both sides without having issues at all. Just need to jack the LCA up and down as needed to add clearance. I wish I could say it took 4 hours though, lol.
