AtoZ Fab is the best

I bought rocker guards from AtoZ Fabrication over a decade ago. During the recent rust repair on my heep I had to remove the rocker guards by drilling out the fasteners. I emailed Zach to ask what size fasteners I needed to reinstall... and he sent me an entire hardware kit! That is over the top cus...

TJ belt squeak

I’ve had the pulley shift slightly on the mount (1/8” or so) which caused a slight misalignment of the pulleys... causing a squeak. This pick is after I took it off and it got much worse but shows you where the pulley separated https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190308/875f6314532333f447fba12ea934a2...

Re: Rust repair

Thanks everyone. I was thinking about piecing together the repair with sheet metal but the replacement torque boxes will certainly be simpler.

What’s everyone’s preferred rust converter/primer/paint?

Finally took off the rocker guards after 13 years... yikes!

Optima replacement

So I have to retract my blame for Optima. It ended up that a relay corroded (thought they were sealed!) which kept a large solenoid powered up continuously. This ended up being the drain which would kill the battery in a couple days. Since I found it and fixed it the battery has started the Jeep fin...

Mitchell Differential

Finally got around to one of my winter projects repairing the front truss which broke off completely. Flipped it over to weld in a plate to brace the corners and look what I found... another sh1tty weld from Mitchell. (FYI outer surface was already ground down flat by me prepping for the plate). 25%...

Re: Optima replacement

How long have you had the dual battery setup? Is it too soon to get a new setup that is more universal for battery replacement? I've had it for probably close to ten years. I could get another setup, but it will be a PIA to rewire. The optimas are laid on their side and stacked. Questions about the...
