    I gained 1.5” of up-travel for $9

    The goal is to balance the range of shock travel with the range of suspension. On my Jeep with those shocks the balance was off, by raising the top shock mount the ranges of movement was/is more in line. Previously the shock travel was the limiting factor of how far the suspension could...

    Rubihara #925 here. I put the rancho 9000s on mine. They are a econo shock but being adjustable I can get them close to what I want.

I'm sure my rack contributes to my particular ride issues. But I still believe most lift kits the rear springs...

    Need Recommendations: 2006 LJ Lift Kits

    One thing I find with my LJ is most 4" lifts the rear springs are too soft for an LJ with any kind of weigh in it. I use RE heavy rear springs and after trying 3 other sets like them the best.

    Easiest fan clutch removal ever

    We have all searched the "net" to find tips on various procedures on how to do things. So many are a waste of time. When you do find one that works, I think it's worth sharing. I had my drivers side motor mount mount bolts shear off. The motor dropped an 2-1/2" on the drivers side and the fan...

    01 TJ shifter coming out of gear after lift install and center console issues

    You raised the console up (effectively) and tilted the transmission back (with the TC drop). Unscrew your console and move to the rear 1/2 to 3/4" is the easiest way to solve your issue. You can cut some of the console out also.
