I just installed my OME lift and now have a list of follow up questions I’m hoping to get some help with. Im getting some slight vibrations(mainly around 40mph) and wondering the best way to combat them. Im wanting to plan out the next steps with in mind I might go taller in the future. I would...

Hey Everybody, Just got done installing a bunch of new components on the Jeep. My JKS front disconnects sit loose where the bolt goes through the top bushing. The bolt is a lot smaller then the bushing diameter so there is a bunch of play and it’s causing a rattling noise when going over bumps...

Can someone help me with this… I’m relplacing all my steering components with the Zj upgrade. I have a steering damper that doesn’t seem to fit. Not sure if I’m doing something wrong here or not. See pics. TIA!

Hey all, Was hoping someone could confirm what the torque specs are on the bearing caps for front differential. 2002 wrangler X with 3.07 gears. I’m finding different answers all over. TIA

I think this is the route I’m going to go actually. I already have it out and the Jeep is at 100k. My mechanic does a lot of front end rebuilds and said he could press new bearings on no problem. Thanks for the suggestion!

About 45 minutes west of Portland

Ok, any damage it could cause if it’s not the right orientation on those ?

Yeah I was referring to the races O2 wrangler “X” model. I think it’s a Dana 30? Not 100% sure. Sorry, all of this is very new to me.

Yes, I didn’t think they were shims. I’m referring to the cup part

Thanks. What is the backlash suppose to be ?

So, I replaced my axle seals. When I took out my gears from the differential these pieces circled in red fell out on the ground and now I’m not sure which side goes to which. I know the caps are super important but are these pieces just as important ? Is there a way to tell proper orientation...

Hey guys, I need some advice on replacing U-joints. I have my axles out and removed the stock U-Joints. I went to press the new spicer ones in and everything went good on first two sides. The second side must have went in crooked and cracked my u-joint and looks like did some damage to my outer...

Thanks for the replies everyone. I installed the rear springs and it made a dramatic difference in the front. I’m now at 2.5” lift with the coils in front plus the 3/4 spacer for a total of 3.25” overall lift. This is with 2933 in front and 2941 in rear. With this I have about 1” of rake.
