How have the WildPeak AT/3W and AT/4W been to balance?

Looks like a fun project. Paint that with the used motor oil from your oil changes. It will bead the water off for about a year. And its not as dark as one would think. I did it on a bridge over a creek in my previous houses. Worked great.

I too have often felt like the steering is doing something weird in the JL. I have pondered that the software senses something it doesn't like and then over compensates. Then it just snowballs from there. Though I have a hard time convincing myself that the software would try to decide it knows...

That is why I am asking here. I know there can be some both good and bad info on the internet, and that is my only source of truth about the JLs. But I like to verify by asking people that I perceive has having way more off road experience than me. I have lifted a nissan frontier, and of all...

I forgot to mention that I am still getting vibrations at certain speeds. I can feel them in the steering wheel. I firmly believe this to be related to some heavy wet snow that got packed up into the wheels and scraped off some weights. I will be making an appointment next week to get the wheels...

Every component has been checked for play and every single fastener has been loosened and torqued to spec. Both the lift and steering are too new to have play anyway. The amount of toe-in and castor is the only logical next step. It is cited all over the Internet that toe and castor are common...

It is my (limited) understanding that the control arm drop brackets get the UCA and LCA more parallel to the ground which supposedly helps with bump steer/wobble and brake/acceleration dive.

I assume you are referring to the brackets that drop the LCAs on the frame side? I do not have those. I haven't decided what I am doing with the lift yet. But I might be doing a 3.5" MetaCloak Game Changer to replace the Rancho 2.5" full kit (came with decent adjustable LCA/UCA, Track Bars ...)...

So, after checking for play in all of the the suspension and steering components and finding none, I went ahead and loosened every end bolt. Then re-torqued each of them to spec. I then checked the toe with the angle aluminum clamped to the rotor method. It was toed in a lot more than I thought...

Are they ICON or ION? I didn't realize ICON made a old-school jeep wheel with the circular holes. I went with procomps for that very reason. EDIT: Ah, ION 171 -- google told me the truth.

Hi, I broke my tailgate retainer strap on my JL yesterday. Not sure exactly how, but I think my air line got in the way of it and somehow interfered with it closing. But since the stock one is so fragile (I've read they break a lot), I was thinking of looking for something other than OEM. I...

Too much suspension travel?

Run ethernet wire from every room (with rj-45 plugs) to a central closet or the garage if attached. Put a ethernet switch in that room and wire that to your broadband router. Then you don't need to mess with wifi. A whole house fan or smart-vent system is also a great money saver for those warm...

Before moving to Loyalton, I lived in North Auburn for 6 years. It is a real shame what covid did to Grass Valley. Nothing but bay-area leftie transplants. It went from a small town vibe to nothing but elite snobbery. Tesla after Tesla. Traffic increased 10-fold. Housing costs skyrocketed. ...

15 years of alimony. Nuff said.

That means a lot coming from you.

Sorry, bro. I am edgy because I get a lot of hate thrown my way on social media because I am from California. Everyone assumes I am a lefty liberal nut job who pines over Gavin Newsome. But, the fact is, I am from rural north eastern California and my tiny town is a bastion of MAGA love. Still...

The fuck does that mean?

I am glad you said it first. I was wondering the same thing.

Wait, so he does not know if they offer them in an 11.5" wide version, but knows that the 11.5 will be 6.5 pounds lighter than a 12.5??
