    Anyone drilled and tapped their own steering box?

    I did, pretty strait forward. I had to make a bottoming tap to cut enough thread on the upper hole to feel that there was enough thread engagement. I would suggest a pilot 7/16 bit if your hardware store carries them, ensures an even hole. Also, once you get the fittings installed make sure (on...

    4 Season half doors? Supertop Ultra?

    When I got my JK a couple years ago I looked on Craigslist to see if anybody was selling anything interesting and there was a pair of half doors for like $1k so I picked them up. Last fall I was considering selling them to help fund a set of JKU Core doors so my wife and I can use them...

    JL diesel sighting

    It sounded nice, like a 335d I had. Not very loud but very distinctive. I walked behind it to see if I could hear the turbo like I could on some other diesels but I couldn’t. I peeked under at the muffler and saw what looked like a DEF tank, it looked like a prototype more than a final product...

    JL diesel sighting

    Unfortunately I am jeepless, out here on business. I just drove to the entrance to check it out. They had them running so it was pretty obvious what they were. They look like any other JL so the few pics I got are boring. They wouldn’t pop the hood or really answer any questions so this is kinda...

    JL diesel sighting

    I’m at the entrance to Hells Revenge in Moab and there are 4 JL diesels in the parking lot with manufacturer plates getting ready to run it. I couldn’t get a peek under the hood but they sounded nice. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

    EVO control arm adjustment

    Installing my Enforcer kit tomorrow and I was looking at the control arms. I know how to adjust them, I just don’t understand what jams up against the Johnny Joint to tighten it up. I know the pinch bolt secures the adjustment sleeve, but what stops the Johnny Joint from moving? Probably a dumb...

    Strongest skid plates

    Or freakish stumps. This is what led me to a skid to begin with. They are harder to spot and are silent, you can at least hear what’s going on with rocks. I get the ‘choose better lines’ bit but a lot of our trails are on a few acres land and maybe 1/2 mile long so if you are always choosing the...

    Strongest skid plates

    After 2 seasons of wheeling my Rockhard engine skid is crushed enough that it should be replaced soon. I do like the skid but I need to find something a little stronger. Is there anything out there a little thicker or more resistant to bowing in? Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

    PR60 (Hard Core package) hydro assist

    Last summer I installed one of Dynatracs hard core axle sets. The front came with the hydro assist ram mount integrated into the axle housing below the track mount, directly behind the tie rod. This is lower than a lot of the other mounts I’ve seen while searching and seems like it won’t have...

    Rubicon locker switches to control replacement ARB locker

    Here is an awful schematic of what I did. Just 3 wires for each axle. Take a look at your axle connectors to get the wire colors, the black wire on the Rubicon solenoid is a ground and can be ignored. For the front axle, I spliced into the wires in the loom that runs across the front...

    Hubcentric rings

    Wondering if hubcentric rings are recommended or not necessary? Getting ready to install 8 lug Hutchinsons on some Prorocks. I know the lug nuts will somewhat center everything up, but will it be enough alone to not exaggerate any balance issues with the heavy tire/wheel combo?

    Hanson Offroad issues

    Anyone dealing with Hanson Off-road? I ordered their rear bumper in March and they charged my card. I waited about a month before contacting them to find out the status and was told "it's at the power coater and will ship next week". That was in April and I was told that once a week until June...

    Rear wheel well paint

    Just pulled my rear wheel well liners and trimmed the fenders in anticipation of moving up to 37's. I noticed many don't paint the wheel wells, but with having a white jeep they really stand out. Just wondering what everyone is using to paint the wheel wells? I am considering rubberized...
