Notice any driveshaft vibration now with the one piece? Since your caster is high like mine i was wondering if it caused any affects? My stuffs goin in tomorrow, just curious.
No driveshaft vibration, but since it’s a live axle all the time now , I do notice a real slight like a hum in the steering wheel, I mean so slight it’s not going to bother me. But you can feel something, it’s hard to explain. Just got back from our little wheeling spot we go to to check stuff out, like rubbing, clunking, vibration, stuff like that, and man what a difference when your locked up, not as much binding, you can actually turn the wheels easier, world of difference. I like it!

Installed hinge covers to protect from rock chips. Didn’t want them initially since they’re just plastic stick-ons, but I’ve gotten a few good chips in the rear hinges. Now that I have them, though, I think they add a lot to the look and break up the white. These are faux fiber, but I really do like them.

I also added fender welting between the rock rails and body to prevent rocks from getting stuck in there. Crazy what little rocks do to Jeeps.

I do have the after market Adams driveshaft though, it might be different with stock driveshaft.

How do you like your roam rocksliders? I’m torn between roam or ace rocksliders.

I do have the after market Adams driveshaft though, it might be different with stock driveshaft.
I felt the Adams was smoother than stock, my reference point maybe skewed as I had previously ripped off the weights from the rear. I could have forgot what stock we like prior.

I think it is smoother, it’s going to be spinning all the time now with this on piece axle, I’m anxious to see how it holds up.
Me too, I ordered the one piece as well.

I am waiting on new shocks, so I am waiting those to take the tires off again, combining projects.

Smart....! Those freakin 37s are heavy, coming off not so bad, slinging them back up... sucks. Lol.
