What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[77RRAD]

Broke in the 4.88s so when the fluid had to be changed installed the Motobilt front and rear diff covers that I clear coated then also installed the Next Venture Rear diff skid.

I’m looking to go 4.88s as well. Couple ? , what is rpms at 70mph ? And are you on 37s ? Thanks

 

[77RRAD]

I am on 37s.
Stock 4:10s with 33 runs about 200ish rpms lower then 37s with 4:88
I want to say its around 2000 RPMs at 70.
I also picked up 1.8 MPG average with 4:88s and 37s then 4:10s and 37s.
3 week test on both and driving the same not looking at MPG.

Did you do a before and after to see how much uptravel you lost in the front with the high steer setup? How does it drive with the draglink and trackbar more parallel to the ground?

I lost no up travel because I was already bumped 3” for the coilovers, however i raised the front up to match the rear so i gained a little more up travel too.

My jeeps so tall now I had to do high steer, but im glad I did anyways it handles so much better, actually the maximus bracket with the yeti flip got them in a better Parallel line than they were stock id say. My bumpsteer was all but eliminated now. Jeep still drives like shit though with the fucked up steering and my casters so light, im at 3.5 degrees. Driveshaft was also at too far of an angle so i removed it because it was bound to explode it was vibrating so bad.
So now i have long arms coming and hopefully help get everything better.

Mounted these hood struts from Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B084M42JXW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

They look and feel good quality; took 20 minutes to install. Makes propping up the hood a breeze when airing up.

Bought this crazy impact wrench to take with me on trails, just in case of reasons...
And also got my AJT fob case in.

Haha yeah it’s a slippery slope when going coil overs. Did you go with teraflex like you were planning? Not too many running their kit but I did look over the install instructions, dunno seems like a lot of jigsaw puzzles compared to rk or evo.

It looks like you installed it correctly, their sales picture shows it offset as well.

I've been thinking about a tailgate table, Is this one pretty sturdy?

That is true. Just my OCD that bothers me with it offset. Lol
I haven’t had a chance to really try it out yet but am going out Sunday so I’ll try it out. It seems to be pretty sturdy. No noise or anything driving around so far. I’d recommend it

 

[beachbumm78]

Shoot you put it on you should be able to center it,,,,,

You’d think....except where you’re supposed to put it isn’t. Guess I’ll adjust lol

 

[beachbumm78]

Once it’s loaded up with food and what not, nobody will notice.

True. I’m sure 99% of people won’t notice or think anything if it.

My ADD installs every thing, my OCD then complains about it forever...

 

[aldo98229]

Finally got my tailgate table installed. Small mod but definitely handy to have! (Ps...really trying to ignore the fact that it’s not centered!! Ugh. Followed instruction to a T and that’s what it came out to )

Which one is this?

Do you get any rattling?

I found it on eBay. I’ll have to go look for the link and can post it. No rattling or anything so far.
