I'm right behind ya. It's like we're relatedWell ……. Warranty’s up , I got wrench in hand….. wondering what’s going to go first……… …….I’m keeping a close eye on the batteries.
So how do you torque the jam nuts? I assume you have to do this finally with them installed and after making adjustments. But how do you get 300lbs on a jam nut?Some pre assembly today, got out work early. Anti seize on the krawler joint, setting the lengths, and a squirt or two of grease. Only snugging up the giant jam nut for now until I get my caster set. I only want to torque that 250 ft lb sumbitch once..........
With a vise and a BA torque wrench.So how do you torque the jam nuts? I assume you have to do this finally with them installed and after making adjustments. But how do you get 300lbs on a jam nut?
Nah….. imma run my peasant 37s fir a while. Trying to wear em out so I can take next step…..Well lucky for everyone here getting to wrench..... I am still waiting on my @Rock Krawler Suspension coilover kit, ordered in June..... Hmm @Izzo93 got his and we both ordered same day..... I have my PSC steering sitting and waiting..... As well as my hood (extra 100hp) .... So is anyone running 42"s? I was thinking maybe heading in that direction but it is very limited on Tires ......
Mine are getting worn real quick.... plus I got my new axles and need new wheels.... so its kind of like the planets are aligned and I have an option for 42"s. It just seems as though most come in 20" rims or larger... which adds to my wheel dilemma?Nah….. imma run my peasant 37s fir a while. Trying to wear em out so I can take next step…..
Lol….. I hear ya, it sucks when the planets align and your freakin hands are tied, lol…Mine are getting worn real quick.... plus I got my new axles and need new wheels.... so its kind of like the planets are aligned and I have an option for 42"s.

I put it on my buds lift and use a 250 ft lb torque wrench with a crows foot. I get it to 250, then go one more grunt passed. It doesn’t hurt that I’m a Neanderthal, you know, the missing link everyone’s been looking for, been hiding in plain sight here in the woods of central Florida…….So how do you torque the jam nuts?

Hahahaha thats how my cousin torques too, makes for gas mask workI torque them till I shit my pants. Then I torque them some more.
That's only for over 250 ft/lb or so - under that I can stay composed on the pull. But above that it's animal style.Hahahaha thats how my cousin torques too, makes for gas mask work
