The Build and Adventures of Bearbait

Lol so you understand. I would suggest the v line polishing kit that the chemical guys has. Also, just to give you a warning, it will take an entire day to polish, ceramic, glaze and seal. I’m going to take a few hours a day for a few days.
I've heard good things about anything Chemical Guys makes so I'll be sure to try it out, thanks!
 
Finally finished polishing, ceramic coating, glazing and sealing the Jeep! It turned out amazing! Took me probably 10ish hours over 3 days. I wish I took a before picture outside.

After sitting on the Evo high clearance long arm kit for about 2 years, I’m finally set to get them installed on the 27th lol

They've been moved between storage units then to my new house and now they’re just taking up space… might as well just stick them on the Jeep now!
Wow! 2 years?? Glad you're finally gonna get them on (y)
 
My brother-in-law borrowed the Jeep for a date night in Big Sky tonight. He called me and told me a tire went rolling away 😳 I thought he was lying at first… he told me to just drive a minute down the road and you’ll see. He wasn’t lying!

What I’ve learned is to always check that tires are torqued after being at the tire shop…

Shit... do you think it the lugs were loose or over tightened?

Well damn, that really sucks. Glad everyone was okay.

Yeah, that’s scary stuff. I’ve seen that happen with two friends too, luckily I learned through their experience.

wow, those studs show signs of being overtightened enough to crush/strip the threads that would allow them to come loose.

I over torqued the lug nuts on my JK when I used my new Milwaukee 1/2" impact for the first time and that's what the threads looked like.

That could be from the wheel falling off.
