Baja Built Wheels

[TEAMSLO]

So I’m assuming only 1 ring came with it? Are you guys running these on the road? It would be my first set of beadlocks but I do drive my jeep to work and back

Yes, just the one ring. Honestly, if running it as a standard wheel n tire, I wouldn't run the beadlock ring.

Some may say otherwise but I've had now 4 sets of beadlocks with no issues. I do check them about once a month and the most adjustment on tq was probably 4 or 5 individual bolts with an eighth of a turn needed. That's total in 4 sets of beadlocks.

I'd have no issues sending my kids on a cross country road trip with my beadlocks.

thanks I might just order them run them as beadlocks and if I have a issue just remount them at standard. So you check the bolt about once a month with torque wrench to be on safe side?

I might just pull the trigger on them. Any coupon codes?

@Northridge4x4 anything for a forum discount?

Looks great!!!!

After what seemed like forever troubleshooting an electrical issue caused by a shop doing a hackjob fix.... finally back in the dirt.

Just the air down spot a little into he AZ side of the border. Scheduled a run for this weekend with my group and decided to get out there early to see if there was an alternate route that reached the water.

looks great I’m tempted to wait a month or so see if any sales happen. Maybe by Black Friday?

Definitely black Friday there will be something. I would have waited as I already had on another set and budget was tight doing a bunch of other unexpected work. But I saw how KMC prices went up so jumped on these in case they did the same.

These look great! Very nice Jeep. I like the KMC's a lot but I'm going to look into these Baja's.
Thanks for sharing!!

Make sure to make all torque adjustments with the weight off the tire or you could get a fuse torque reading.
Either take the wheel/tire off the vehicle or use a jack to lift the wheel/tire into the air.

There is a forum discount code: jlwranglerforum
unfortunately right now, Baja Built isn't allowing any discounts on their products.

I haven't heard anything about them being in the Black Friday sale, but it is waaaay too early to know what companies are doing for that.

I don’t think forum discount will work on these?

On your fenders, did you replace the oem plastic clips? I'm needing to do something, the big white oem clips after doing the fender chop is gross. I have extra hardware from doing the inner fenders but wasn't sure if that would work.
