    BF Goodrich Trail-Terrain T/A or Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S

    If you want to stick with P rated tires that have fairly aggressive tread, the list is pretty short. I looked at quite a few of them side by side IRL and I'd suggest you look into the Destination AT2s. At this point they are one of the most expensive AT tire but they seem pretty great so far.

    The 2022 Great Desert Road Trip

    Absolutely awesome. I'd love to hear more of how you managed to get balljoints on/off without tools. And this reminds me, you should get a front and rear LSD. Having spent some time out in the four corners region, I can attest to how rough it can be. Major props... and since I live in Nor. Cal...

    Buyers Remorse Open Country - 245 75 r16

    245's actually look a little too small for the 8" width wheel. 245's on the other hand look perfect on the 7" width wheel. I'll send pic of mine shortly. And interestingly, I think the stretching of the tire accounts for the rubbing you get. I literally get none at full lock to lock with the...

    BF Goodrich Trail-Terrain T/A or Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S

    I retract my endorsement of the Coopers. I started losing snow traction pretty hard after about 3-4k miles and then I noticed that the siping only goes 2/32" into the tread and of course I'm about 1/2 of that at this point. They still were quiet and rode nice, but didn't have faith in them after...

    H&R Spring Review

    I'd much prefer a longer spring to achieve lift (gain travel), but to do that would require a longer strut as well. The strut (shock I know!) acts as the limiter so the only way to achieve is by stiffer spring. I'm running the CRD springs on my gasser up front to counter balance the weight of a...

    3.73 front diff and other stuff

    Well, I think for those of us that want to modify a KJ, we've already done it. I mean, I can't seem to get anyone interested in my used set of OME 927's *shrug* just the way it goes

    Survey on AT tires being used

    In theory I like General Grabbers, but the grabber ATP had zero siping below 2/32". They also had almost no open space in the tread design so I'd expect poor offroad grip. And, my experience with General is that they don't use a compound suitable for wet traction. My RT43s were downright...

    3.73 front diff and other stuff

    I’m not, but also I had both my diffs rebuilt when I upgraded to lsd/lockers. If it had 410 gears than maybe

    Survey on AT tires being used

    Personally I think even a fairly built kj isn’t well suited to rock crawling, so I don’t see the need for a LT rated AT tire. On the other hand, not having a true AT tire is also a mistake, If you want to at least occasionally play in the soft stuff. There’s a sweet spot there and I think P...

    love to pick through your kj pile… what else are you liquidating?

    OME 927 Springs

    Gently used (less than 1k miles) set of OME 927 HD springs, about 1 year old. Had to upgrade to the CRD OMEs to support winch install. $100 + split shipping with buyer. Set in northern CA.

    Survey on AT tires being used

    Just curious as to who is running what out there for the KJ. I had Cooper Discovery AT3 4S as 235/75/16 on OEM alloy rims and I'm switching out for something else. The snow traction disappeared as the tires wore. Noticed that the siping is really shallow and going for something with full depth...

    OME 927 HD Coil Springs

    Hey Tom sorry about my late reply. Yes, maybe 1500 miles. Been installed but only wheeled once. Mostly just sat in the kj to see if I liked the stance.

    Jba uca fitment

    That's a good idea, actually. I think the deal is that I lost about 1/16-1/8" in the pockets because the previous set had smaller (width) bushings by that much. But however you decide to do it, if you have the same issue then they aren't going in without a serious fight and even after opening...

    4WD Lever is Loose and Transmission Wont Engage

    If the bushing breaks and it will, just depends on time, then the cable's eyelet end will still be looped around the arm (TC shifter will feel loose but still work). If that cable eyelet has slipped off the TC shifter arm then it won't do anything. And if your TC was in a gear at the time, then...

    How to reinstall shock strut with lift kit

    I've done it this way at least 6x's by now. It works like a charm and makes the whole assembly process soooooo easy. Its' basically the equivalent of a knuckle separator tool but works oppositely. Do what you guys want, but it's super easy, only spreads the clevis by an extra 1/8" (and HOLDS it)...

    02/03 Drivers side exhaust needed

    No. I'm referring to the flange on the cat itself that the clamp uses to bolt onto the exhaust manifold. I tried to see if it could be repaired with a weld and that was unfeasible so I bit the bullet and bought a new 50 state legal cat. It wasn't fun installing.

    JBA 69000 bushings installation problems

    Interesting. Did they just fall into the pockets after the bushing swap?

    Jba uca fitment

    No, sorry. But what I did is basically shove a 2x4 into the pocket via hammer. That opened it up enough to get it in but just barely.
