    Is RCV feeding me BS?

    I just found this: If I understand it correctly, it is showing that even low torque will result in twisting... It appears to support that the twisting will continue for up to 100 degrees before failure. If the chart is right it will require ~7500 lb/ft to twist the shaft this far. My...

    Is RCV feeding me BS?

    We twisted both RCV shafts this last weekend. And when we removed them I noticed the CV feels like ShiPooPoo. (They have around 5k miles on them and this was their first wheeling venture.) Called RCV this AM to discuss warranty and they are claiming the twist is normal and okay. “They are...

    ESC issues....

    Has anyone had their non-Rubicon JK reflashed or programmed with a different ESC algorithm? Why I ask: The last trip to Rausch Creek was a great time, but Alana (my wife) was plagued with the ESC kicking in and either killing the engine all together or applying the brakes to a point that she...

    Leads on a good donor LS?

    A good friend of mine discovered over the weekend that the piston seals in his motor are shot again. (He has a CJ). He has decided not to rebuild a second time and instead do an LS swap. Please let me know if anyone has a good lead on a donor in the OH/KY/IN tri-state.

    I've been looking for these... Finally found them. :) Living rural has its advantages, but sadly we have grown so used to nights like this we rarely take pictures anymore. :grayno:

    I'm not a LUG, but I am NUTS

    I've damaged many of my lug nuts from removing them NASCAR style and not ensuring my impact socket was properly seated. (The nut itself is fine but the caps are slightly bent.) I'm tired of having my impact and torque sockets stick to the nuts so I'm going to replace them. There are so many...

    Steering Stabalizer

    I don't really see a problem with upgrading, but I do agree it is unnecessary. If you do “upgrade” make sure you get an actual steering stabilizer and not a rebranded shock. Bilstein for example, has more pressure on one side than the other due to the gas pre-charge. This causes a pull. I have...

    37 " tires rubbing pibch seam

    I'm not sure about a write-up but will look. Here is what mine ended up looking like. Sorry for the poor picture quality. I snagged the pictures before my shop lights heated up. Note: my tire is lower than normal because my jeep is partially lifted while I'm installing hydraulic assist.

    What’s in your Rubicon ready Jeep?

    I would think we would only need to follow the requirements for the registered state but look forward to other's thoughts.

    Front Axle Shafts : C-Clips vs. Full Circle Clips

    Sure thing! I purchased M30 ext clips. The Standard rings that were about the same size were not the right thickness. The M30s matched the clips that came with my joints perfectly. Fastenal part number 1135326 for a 3 pack. I knew I had spares in my trail tool bag, I just had to find them...
