  1. Diff Covers

    Iā€™m assuming it took a few hits hard enough to bend a tiny bit which loosened the axle tube u bolt clamps. Or simply loosened over time/ I didnā€™t have it tight enough to begin with after a diff fluid change. Then got worse from there with bending and movement. Which allowed it to shift up into...
  2. Diff Covers

    I ran that rear skid for awhile. Until it bent and took out my pinion seal. Which required pulling over and filling up the diff 3 times on the way home haha. I also ran the stock cover and put a big dent in it on fordyce. Very lucky to not damage the gears lol. Why it bent so bad Iā€™m not sure...
  3. Apex AutoLYNX quick sway bar disconnect solution

    It has more to do with clearing the inner fender liner, not so much the fender itself.
  4. Six speed manual versus eight speed, automatic, disadvantages and advantages

    Iā€™ve had both. The 6 speed wasnā€™t bad but it had issues. Creaking clutch once warmed up from 15-40k miles. Replaced the slave cylinder once but that didnā€™t fix it. Manual was ok with 5.13ā€™s and 37ā€™s but the auto is much better. I always said I wish I had 5.38ā€™s with the manual. It just always...
  5. Apex AutoLYNX quick sway bar disconnect solution

    Running KBD high clearance fenders with American adventure lab inner fender liners. Yeah ill have to try and get an idea with uptravel clearance. Trying to order before a trip next week lol.
  6. Apex AutoLYNX quick sway bar disconnect solution

    Did not think about the backspacing. Mine are 17x8.5" wide with 0 offset and 4.75bs. Yeah It would be about parallel with the ground using the 8" autolynx set to 8.7. Also I should note my axles are narrow width 44's. Gladiator non Rubicon 44's.
  7. Apex AutoLYNX quick sway bar disconnect solution

    Trying to determine between the 8" or 10.5". 3" ish lift but with the mopar fox shocks, so could go either 8" or 10.5". Currently my sway bar is tilted up just a bit and my sway links are 9". So the 8.7" setting on the 8" autolynx would work. 3" bump stops. Just what I had around the garage...
  8. ARB diff covers for the JL

    Do the Spicer or ARB covers still fit on the "updated" 22-23 housings? Doing some reading I was seeing that Artec's truss requires extra trimming work to fit with the newer housings, front specifically, so I was hoping all the diff covers still fit.
  9. Well it was fun [SPOILER ALERT: THERE’S A HAPPY ENDING]

    Yeha I worked as a lot porter back in 07-08 ish. Drove a used 05 sti that was on that lot all the time. Loved subies ever since. With snow tires this thing was a beast!
  10. Well it was fun [SPOILER ALERT: THERE’S A HAPPY ENDING]

    I once traded in a 4runner for a brand new wrx sti. I Had always wanted one. But got tired of not being able to get down more than a gravel road. Having always had 4wd/ lifted 4wd and my love of off roading. I only lasted about a year and half before I traded it in for a rubicon. Now being able...
  11. My story of the failures of the rear Dana 44 and why I think it has been unreliable for me.

    Guess that makes sense. When the ud44 was released, Eaton did not have a locker for thr JL yet. I never had any problems with it. Mine was wired to my factory aux switches.
  12. My story of the failures of the rear Dana 44 and why I think it has been unreliable for me.

    The Dana engineer confirmed the UD44 uses the same oem locker as the rubicon?
  13. I ran a tank of premium

    My 18 manual pinged like crazy on 87. Had to use 91. Now the gladiator auto I have not noticed any ping running 87. We will see what happens in the summer.
  14. Would you trade for a new Gladiator?

    I did. Sold my JL for multiple reasons. I like the amount of stuff I can fit in the bed under a soft topper for camping with the family. Plus my bike rack on the back or tow a small trailer. Arbā€™s and 4.88ā€™s on the way.
  15. California Rubicon Highline Fender Flares with Liners

    Id be interested in the front non LED fenders. Have a gladiator so just looking for the fronts actually.
  16. Low-Speed Engine Rattle

    Only time I didnā€™t have pinging was by running 91.
  17. My story of the failures of the rear Dana 44 and why I think it has been unreliable for me.

    Just as a data point, I wheeled my JL a lot for about 5 years on 37's with an ARB and 5.13's. Sport dana 44. I changed the diff oil before every summer. Had the after market Dana spicer diff cover (after I destroyed the stock one on fordyce šŸ˜¬), not sure if that holds more fluid. Never had a...
  18. Well it was fun [SPOILER ALERT: THERE’S A HAPPY ENDING]

    You sir, will be back. Maybe not a Jeep but definitely something that can go to the same place you took those pictures.
