So mc has its own springs, and they are side specific, allowing for extra weight of fuel tank? Or is that the roam springs? I didn’t even know you could get roam springs by themselves?

Mc isnt side specific just front to rear. But havent noticed any side sagging and theyve been on for about 10,000 miles

Do they sell springs separate from there lift kits?

Yeah they are like 199 a set

 

[Moto_21]

This is a fun thread I’ve seen on a few other forums. Can be anything from mods to drives, to washes, etc. pictures are always a plus!

So what did you do to your Jeep today?

Put the running boards on, so easy even this female did it _ before & after.

Not cool!

Edit: make a quick check of the drain plug.

I tightened it about quarter turn.
I just don't get the amount of, either incompetency or laziness in service related business.

This last week I decided to build a set of drawers for the rear cargo area. When I camp, I usually just use a set of plastic home depot totes. They worked for me, but I got tired of having to always remove the top two to get to camp gear or food. Or pull them all out if I had to reach the tool box. And since I signed up for the All4Fun Jeep event next month, living out the jeep for a week seemed like a hood reason to build a couple drawers. I didn't make any plans or base it off anyone specific set up. I just sort of played it by ear as I went.
I started off with a 3/4" plywood I had left over to make a base plate. This may stay in full time, but I haven't decided yet. Once the base plate was in, I measured up what I wanted to do for the drawers. Each drawer box is 28" long 15" wide and 10" tall. I wanted it to be easily removed and modular so each right and left box can be removed independent of the whole system. Each drawer box has 2 bolts on the outside that secure it to the base plate. I used eyebolts so I can use a bungee cord to secure my cooler and bags to the top. The rear of the boxes are secure with 2 thumb screws each. So with 4 bolts and about 5 minutes I can have both drawers removed. Pictures may be out of order because I'm uploading from my phone.

Well it was yesterday technically but I installed 2.5" lift, 37" Nitto Ridge Grapplers, and ACE engineering slider/steps.

Mr Smith had a very productive day! Nice!

As a cabinetmaker in a previous life, I say that appears to be very precise, excellent work! Well done!

Very nice dude... as an old carpenter I appreciate your use of pocket screws to keep the outside clean of fasteners, well done....
