Re: FRS in their Jeep

Re: Diagnose steering clank/bang?

I have a hard time thinking the box is the noise. You said there is no play in the steering . Please look up a steering box online and see how it works. Unless the sector shaft broke a tooth , which I would doubt , Im not putting my money on the box. You said ball joints move. Thats where Id look. R...

Re: Stock or upgrade - Rubicon D44 front axle

You seem to have an answer for every question youve asked . So why ask in the first place ? If they arent making the ring gear bigger to hold more teeth , what do you think happens to them ? They get thinner or maybe we just overlooked that part. Anyone can claim same strength as the high ratios. Pr...

Re: Rear diff smear

Id also check and see that the vent hose/nipple didt give you just a burp. Sometimes when the diff is hot and you go into cold water crossing. It does weird things. See if the end of the vent tube is wet. You should be able see if the cover peeled back on a scrape. Most of the time the factory seals...

Re: 4 wheel Inflation/deflation setup

Bob , what is the CFM rating of the pump ? Thats rated unloaded ! That means I call BS on 4 minutes for all four tires to air up. You cant possibly split the pumps CFM by four and make it faster ! This I gotta see , if ya eveah get out on a trail FjR68

Re: JLU Rubicon Mopar 2” Lift

Its only an opinion ! After wheelin for 15 yrs and have watched 4-5 models come and go . I really in my heart will tell you to go 3+ inches with any 4 door. What we do is tough and if you think 2" will stop you from dragging , it wont . There are people with your rig that will answer also. Take...
