The building of Anvil II -- The Deuce

You could also buy the bearing, seal, retainer and remove the axle yourself. Then take all of this to a shop that will do it, it's likely about half an hour of labor for their press time.

Timken is what I've always used. Let me know if you need any pointers and if you could, please take pics :thumb:

Hate to be a pest, but is this what I need. I’ve tried finding a Timken, but I’m not sure I found the right part.

Due your research, but these look like the correct Timken ones:

Okay. Looks like Car ID had everything I needed. Those appear to be correct. I’ve only ever bought parts from Jeep sites, Amazon, or Summit. I didn’t think to check there. Thank, Doug.

I took advantage of Rancho’s Shocktober Rebate. I ordered some RS5000x shocks. I’ve run them before, and they are really nice. I’m currently running the stock Rubicon shocks, which I’m sure are worn out, and really aren’t the correct size.

I’ve gotten the Jeep back to driving pretty good, with the recent things I’ve done. Unit bearings, wheel balance, & alignment. I’m going to take a look at the ball joints, while I’m at it.

I still plan on doing a 3” EVO Enforcer Stage 1, with Rancho 9000 shocks,but not for a while.

I've been driving 106 miles a day, to work. I don't always drive that much, but I'm really running up the miles on the Jeep, so I bought a daily. 2010 Camry. It looks a little rough, up close, but it drives good, the A/C blows cold, and it seems to be mechanically sound.

We should put Wayalife windshield banners on them. Cozdude bought an Accord.
 
Lol. I saw that! I know a wayalife banner on a Fiesta would definitely send the wrong messed to others that I really don’t want. Lol

Nice Yota clay!

How you liking the rancho 5000’s?

I ran them on the 2 door. I like them. They ride better than the stock shocks, handling washboard roads smoother. I’m sure the adjustability of the 9000’s are nicer, but the 5000’s are a good, inexpensive way to go. I’ve only run Bilsteins on pickups, so it’s a little different, but I like the Rancho’s better.
