I just finished up my axle swap and now have the old gal rolling down the street on 40s, unfortunately my current lift doesn't give me nearly enough up travel before the axle pumpkins start smashing things (pun intended) to soak up even small speed bumps at moderate speeds. The JKU came with...

My 2013 JK is currently sitting at a local offroad shop stuck in 2nd gear. It was there for them to finish up the Junkyard Axle Swap project I started over a year ago. The story goes that initially they got everything buttoned up but attempted to drive it prior to having all the ABS sensors...

Ladies and Gents, I have a beautiful set of 40” Toyo MTs and KCM Machetes ready to go onto my JKU, but I can’t get the darn things to inflate. I watched all the videos and read as many of the threads that I could. The rings mounted just fine, but when I try to add air to seat the back lip my...

I would like to convert my D60 hubs over to 8x6.5 & 14mmx1.5 to match my GM 14 bolt rear axle, but I'm stuck on what studs to buy. Here are the stock wheel studs in the D60: 2002 F350 Dorman 610-424: Under Head Length: 74.68 Knurl Diameter: 15.98 Shoulder Length: 14.99 Here are the two...

I purchased a set of 1 ton axles that a fellow keeper had started to ready for install under his JK. The steering arm on the passenger knuckle is blank. No holes other than those mounting it to the knuckle and no markings. How do I determine where to drill the hole for the drag link. Also...

I have a spot on my switch cluster for a round gage. I don’t run an air tank. I will need to reprogram gears, tire size and turn off TPMS. Because of all this I was thinking the Aeroforce might suit my needs better than a pro cal or superchip. Any thoughts or opinions?

I am in the process of some pretty serious work to my 2013 JKU, all in support of going to 40" Tires. Based on all the positive reviews on here I started looking at the Cooper STT Pros, but in the process found a deal on the Nitto Trail Grapplers for about $335 less for the set of 5...

I just recieved my evo Long Arm kit and I’m an excited to get cutting. Being that my JK is also my daily driver, I’d like to minimize downtime. From what i’ve heard the long arm install is an arduous journey of self doubt, remorse and finally overwhelming joy. Would it be safe and/or feasible...

I have a ‘02 F350 Dana 60 almost ready to be bolted up. I need new brake rotors which should be a simple trip to auto zone, except the unit bearings have been converted to 8x6.5. Is there a certain 8x6.5 rotor that I should buy or should I drill a set of F350 rotors?

I am in the process of a axle swap which will require 8x6.5 wheels. As I am working through the budget I noticed that some cheap steel beadlocks wheels and 40” tires (Cooper STt Pro) is about the same as a set of KCM Machetes and 37” tires. My question is which combinationwill give the best...

I’m exploring some options in the world of axle swaps. From what I have learned thus far if one is going to use the Artec bracketry on junkyard tons (D60 & 14b) one must also have control arms with flexible joints on both ends. If this is the case what would be some good control arm kits to...

I have saved up about $12k to “invest” in my ‘13 JKU and I’d appreciate the Wayalife communities input in getting the best value for my dollars. So a brief description of my JK: - MOPAR Stage 3” Lift Kit - 35” Toyo MT (worn out) - Warn VR10 - Poison Spyder Bumpers & Rails - Stock Axles - 3.21...

I am in the process of purchasing a new front axle to replace the stock Dana 30. I also love doing most of my own wrenching. So my first question is how terrible will it be to swap in a crate axle without a lift? If it’s moderately do-able what sort equipment (aside from typical wrenches and...

My youngest son is one year old. One of maybe seven words in his vocabulary is "jeep". When we are walking out to leave the house he starts chanting "jeep, jeep, jeep". If we get into Mommy's Highlander he cries. He points out every jeep he sees and has never made an error with pickup...

Oh yeah, you like "Vader's Helmet". Please tell us more. My friend Dr. Freud would like to hear all about it. Back to topic: I am purchasing the Zeon 10-s because it looks like a big black... mean it looks like Vader's helmet.

I have a one year old, so my wife buys a crate-worth whenever she sees any brand on sale. I haven't developed a brand preference as of yet. I am guessing P&G and KC account for 90% of the wipe market despite what the package brand might say.

You guys are doing it wrong. TP is soo 1900's. Baby wipes! They are prepackaged in a durable, travel friendly package. They are much more versatile than standard TP (have you ever tried to clean grease off your hands with TP?). If you find yourself without running water for an extended...

You're going to love those tires!

It doesn't look like the photos loaded properly let's try this again.

An outdoorsman at work told me about a piece of DNR (Department of Natural Resources) hunting land that has some nice scenic dirt roads. Since its summer there wouldn't be very many hunters, so I loaded up the kids for a nice drive through the great outdoors. Unfortunately the massive amount of...
