    Front Driver Side Wheel locked up... Even with almost everything replaced.

    Good Update: putting undamaged bracket on driver side seems to have solved the issue. So just waiting on replacement to arrive. Bad Update: since I already have everything disassembled, I wanted replace hub assembly same as I did on driver side. Guess it was a mistake to think it would go as...

    Front Driver Side Wheel locked up... Even with almost everything replaced.

    At this point I've replaced everything (myself) from the hard brake line at the frame down. Bracket is set aside to toss and new one is on the way. Had zero reason to think I needed a new bracket because was never informed of the damage... hence this whole unfortunate process.

    Yeah, I plan to at least give them a call. When they had it, they specifically called to get my approval for drilling out the slide pin because lesser extremes did not work. Valiant effort to fix, but at least let me know it got eff'd up in the process and let me get a new bracket straight off...

    So during my lunch break I started process of removing passenger to swap it to the driver side. And this is what I somehow had missed. Hole for slide pin is damaged and the interior is oblong instead of round. I also think shop may have drilled it out to remove and during that went in on angle...

    Front Driver Side Wheel locked up... Even with almost everything replaced.

    Yeah hub assembly came with new sensor so that’s been replaced. And no change with J6 removed. Luckily nothing has been super pricey minus the initial shop visit. Really just pads and rotors which I needed regardless plus hub assembly. Problem where I am is I can go to a super cheap (but...

    Front Driver Side Wheel locked up... Even with almost everything replaced.

    Yeah I am kinda figuring this would be the next step if I swap the bracket from passenger side and don't see improvement. I just don't know how/when it would've bent. I would think this woulda been picked up when they checked the alignment though? Would there be any way to check for this myself...

    Just tried this on my lunch break with no difference. Also waiting on call back from Dynatrac for troubleshooting or way to confirm it is the bracket itself

    I should add that after I replaced hub assembly and sensor, the BRAKE indicator was on dash. But this went away after I put wheel back on and drove around the block.

    Yes, new caliper I put on was slide pins, boots, bleeder valve, banjo bolt, crush washers, and bolt to bracket. Pads slide freely in the clips

    Where'd All the Motor Oil Go??

    My dad is doing work for someone just retired from Oil Industry. Manufacturers are out of additives required for diesel, weeks away from being out for hydraulic fluid, and similar with regular motor oil. Said Mobil1 is already out.

    Hey guys! Been a while but I could really use some ideas on what the issue could possibly be on my 2017 JKU with Dynatrac Progrips. Unfortunately since moving to Miami it has become purely a 'daily driver', but since August of 2021 it's been mostly driveway bound. At this point I think I've done...

    EVO Trans Skid Question

    Wondering if anyone could tell me whether the little black bracket I circled is still a part for this. Went to install a second time and was missing once again. EVO-1092B is the part# and is for a 2017 auto Sent from my SM-G975U using WAYALIFE mobile app

    What was done to your rig this week?

    4.88s went in along with bombshell covers. Got to hang out with some great guys while the work was being done and see some nice rigs compared to what's usually driving around these parts... favorite was the one with the entire b pillar of roll cage actually being the air tank. Sent from my...

    Cut Fender Thread

    I was trying to remove as little as possible. And double sided tape stopped the flopping... holding even in the 100°+ heat wave we've been having. Sent from my SM-G975U using WAYALIFE mobile app
