    Question regarding SYE shaft / yoke runout

    I have been chasing down a vibration for a long time and have played with new driveshafts, rebalancing tires, new yokes on front and rear axles, and pinion angles. How much runout is acceptable on the sye shaft? My vibration starts around 50mph and up, and is felt in the seat . I took the...

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    A plasma cutter made my frame caps way easier. I did one side with a grinder and a sawzall and decided to buy one shortly after. Went to the junkyard to get a temporary front driveshaft while I send mine back to Adams, and had to grab this while I was there to hang on the wall. There was also a...

    No more out of round steelies . Grabbed these fuel anza wheels off marketplace for $350. Not a fan of the whole fake beadlock thing, but they definitely do the job.

    To lift or not to lift?

    Yep, I can assure you there’s places in Mass to wheel, and ones that are public that is . I regularly drive my tj 2 hours plus to wheel. My suggestion is get involved with a club , and go from there if you feel like you may be interested in trying out some trails. Feel free to shoot me a message...

    Arizona Rock Crawler

    My trail ready used the ez lock threaded inserts, but oh boy were those a pain to swap out when needed. These inserts look much nicer !!

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    For today’s activity I actually got some time to drive the jeep. Took a day trip up to Massachusetts to one of the popular public trails . Jeep performed flawlessly.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Finally tossed my junkyard disc swap for the rear 44 in. Liberty backing plate, pads and rotors, rubicon e brake cables, and grand Cherokee rubber brake hose. Much better than the tired drum setup it had prior.

    Frame Side Track Bar Mount Shot

    You had the 4-6” bar, which required the use of a drop pitman arm. The bar we are talking about is the 0-3.5” lift one , which works on larger lifts despite the description. The bracket included with this one drops the track bar 1/2” over the stock mount . I have zero issues with bump steer...

    Frame Side Track Bar Mount Shot

    Essentially yes, but make sure to cycle the suspension to check for clearance. Barnes has a full set of instructions that show where to weld the bracket on. You might want to triple check the drop on that bracket as I believe it's less than stock, meaning that you will end up with bump steer...
