  1. I dunno man. Seems a truss is a good idea because of the stupid FAD. Pics.

    Not my pics. Stolen from the internet. The FAD casting is a pox on the JL.
  2. Jeep Wrangler unable to handle the curve! Crashes during Police pursuit

    It sure went around corners faster than I'd try lol. Cop tried to stop him for speeding. He runs. Arrested for pot (w/intent to deliver) and a laundry list of traffic citations. He was apparently renting the Jeep. Charges: Bryson Coleman: 27-50-302(a)(7): SPEEDING - MORE THAN 15 MPH OVER...
  3. XR experts: What is the primary purpose of the extended bump stops in the front?

    I have a Sport with trussed Rubicon axles, Falcon 2.1 (0-2" lift) shocks and now XR springs. Stock Sport bump stops. The XR has extended bump stops. Why? Is it to prevent collapsing your springs or shocks or is it primarily to help tire rub in the fenders? The reason I ask is when I hit a...
  4. Bearing failure. Kinda.

    So after doing 3 sets of gears on different axles on my Jeep, I thought I'd spoil myself with one of them fancy bearing puller tools. It arrived in the mail, and I put it to use. Didn't read the instructions. How hard can it be? Well this is what happens when you don't read the instructions...
  5. Had a jack stand collapse today.

    Was putting new springs on the Jeep. Jacked it up with the floor jack, put the stand under it and let the jack down. The stand collapsed. Coulda been bad I guess. Took a look at the stand, and a drift pin had broken so that the teeth weren’t fully engaging. These are going in the trash. I...
  6. It's a Jeep thing. On ice.

    I'm not 100% certain this is from our North Texas freeze we are dealing with, but it's still enough for a chuckle.
  7. RCV 35 spline and axle seals. Could use some help.

    This is a D44 (m210) Per RCV, the factory seals need to be removed, which Ive done. The seals RCV sends you are tube style seals that push in with a couple fingers. (picture below) I have put 2 in each side, inners and outers. One set pushed in from inside the pumpkin, one set pushed in from...
  8. Pinion/pinion bearing isn't spinning true. Front d44 regear.

    I just got done putting the pinion nut on, and noticed this. Put my impact on the pinion nut to spin it fast and noticed it doesnt seem to be spinning true. I'm not a super expert, so I don't know if this is normal/tolerable or not. So I leave it up to you guys.
  9. Calling all bolt nerds. What is the bolt size of the FAD?

    The FAD delete plate didn't come with bolts. What is the bolt size so I can get 4 new ones from the hardware store? Someone has to know.
  10. Isnt the duck thing only for Jeeps?

    Saw this lady with a duck on her dash. She was driving a 4runner TRD Off Road.
  11. Adapting an e-locker to an air locker.

    I know i can just drill a new hole, but teraflex sells this part which adapts the elocker hole to an air locker on a JK. He had no idea if it fits a JL. What's your guys input on this? Terfaflex part im referring to...
  12. 35 spline RCV axle install help

    So I'm getting around to doing my RCV install. This is the 35 spline version going into a Rubicon axle with the 35 spline ARB locker. A couple things... I called RCV and he said to use only the included axle seals. The factory ones don't fit because the 35 spline axles are too fat. That...

    I'm in the North Texas area. Would like to buy a Rubicon drag link, tie rod, and front pinion flange. Any or all parts. OEM or aftermarket.
  14. Having trouble figuring out this pattern. New gears/bearings.

    Installing Dana 5.13's in the front of my Sport (d30) I can't figure out what's wrong with this pattern. I mean I know it's wrong, but I can't find any resources on how to correct this. Whats the cause of the high toe print on the drive side? Pattern #2 is where i quit for the day...
  15. m186 shim compatibility? I need more carrier shims.

    The Dana master install kit doesn't have enough shims in it. From the factory it's shimmed .1360 on the left and .1170 on the right. I just regeared the front and my backlash is too much (.010) The crappy set of shims with my Dana master install kit doesn't give me enough shims to make a...
  16. Using factory aux switches for ARB locker.

    I'm going to need some help with this one. I'm a literal electrical idiot. I can plug "A" into "B" and thats as complicated as I understand. I have a twin ARB compressor and for the moment, a rear ARB locker (no front ARB locker). I want to use the factory aux switches to control it all. I...

  19. I hate dealer service departments. Episode #24400032

    tl;dr When they don't fix your Jeep, they are liars. Have my Jeep into the service department for the 7th time to get something fixed. This time to fix the rear differential. The service writer says, "Oh, looks like you're coming up to your major service at 30k miles. Do you want to get...
