    Input on Next Step for Frankenlift

    I agree with Eddie, sounds like you and a buddy should be able to quickly pinpoint since you can recreate the condition by rocking the jeep. I have had similar noises and it has always been a bolted joint or a hard contact between two components. I have the same Rancho 9000 shocks and have...

    Got a new trailer.

    Looks great! A buddy has the same trailer and has pulled it all over the southeast with no issues!

    Coil spacer install

    It hits the exhaust pipe before the axle drops far enough to clear the springs. At least with 4” of lift it does.

    Coil spacer install

    Good luck!! The front is more involved IMO. Have to disconnect the drive shaft and track bar, whereas the rear didn’t require it.

    Coil spacer install

    My ‘12 JKUR on 4” EVO plush ride springs had about 1” of lean also and was able to get rid of most of it by installing a terraflex 1” spacer on top of the rear passenger side spring. It’s still leaning slightly but I’m too lazy to tear apart the whole front end to install a spacer on top of the...

    SAFTEY GLASSES - When Do You Wear Them?

    Like most, I have to wear them full time at work and they buy me a new pair of prescription clear and safety sunglasses each year so I’ve got several pairs floating around. But I didn’t wear them outside of work until about 10 years ago when I was weedeating in flip flops and regular eye...

    Pet Peeves - What Pisses You Off?

    Ford dealership parts departments. Every damned one of them around me. are they trained to say “I don’t know” when asked about any specific quantity of anything? How many gallons anti freeze do I need to buy? …I don’t know How many quarts transmission fluid does it hold? …I don’t know Can...

    Inflation? What Inflation - LOL

    Just heard a radio commercial for a local Jeep dealership with 150 new jeeps in stock and offering $15k off MSRP on wrangler, gladiator, and Wagoneers. Same dealership that had $15-20k mark ups during Covid.

    37 Cooper STT Pros on ATX Slabs balance issues

    My 37x12.50 STT pros on KMC beadlocks all have anywhere from 2 to 4 oz of weight. None have the amount of weight you have especially being 180 deg out. All weights are in one location.

    Help Identifying My Lift (Used Jeep Rubicon)

    Adding lift causes your wheels to move forward in the wheel well due to the arc of the CAs. You could move your rear axle back slightly but would need to install the adjustable upper and lower CAs, but remember the axle assembly moves rearward when the suspension is compressed due to the arc of...

    Alignment specs for 5" long arm kit?

    You are over complicating this whole process. Just my 2 cents here but throw the alignment paperwork in the trash. Set your caster using the digital level to 4.5 degrees (91.5 on your level) and then go drive it. You’ve got 4.10 gears so you can probably get away with a little more caster...

    Alignment specs for 5" long arm kit?

    Those flats on the axle housing are perpendicular to the pinion axis and 6 deg separation to the caster on the stock housing. At 92.2 deg on your digital angle finder, the pinion angle will be 2.2 deg up and the caster will be -3.8 deg. If you want more caster decrease the angle towards 90...
