There are many posts on this topic, but could not find anything on repair/rebuild of the ACM. (Q1.) Is the only solution to live without airbags, until you MIGHT be lucky enough to find a "VIN matching" unit on EBAY? (Q2.) Has anyone located an electrical engineer or service that can replace...

The tire 33x12.5R15 and is stamped 35psi. It was crazy squirrely when picked up from the dealer, but I lowered to 30-ish.

My "playground" is 7-8 hours away and through heavy LA traffic. These tires (33x12.5R15) at 28-30psi are a buzzkill (i.e., active/stressful) on the return trip and driving at highway speeds 60-70mph. Might be the curved profile and less road content for a "smooth ride". No complaints off-road or...

The tires are 11/2006, not 6/2011. That makes them 14.5 years old. OMG ... I am getting old way too fast!!

This old thread really helped me decide. Thanks all. I keep my 2000 TJ parked in the garage and use like a boat. The tires do not see the sunlight, but I am sure simply aging (continuous vulcanizing) will make them hard and dangerous. These are BFG KM from late 2011 and still have tread. The...

Do you still have the fenders?

I heard of a good guy in Corona. Thanks for the tip!

Can you PM me a reputable shop in Escondido area?

That just kills me!! I have been baking on 33 or 35 for a few months. The locker decision is driving the commitment, but I don't think I need 35, yet. I am about resolved to 33 again with the gear/locker upgrade. I heard someone say "let the rig, determine your needs". I have not hit a wall...

Old thread, but same problem. I need to re-gear/locker, plus need new tires soon. I would love to have the option for 35" in the future, but am happy with 33" so far. I want to do more overlanding and road trips that take 6-8 hours on/off highway. I have 800lb trailer. I have...

I missed the important fact that I am moving up to 35" from 33", currently. I need to run in 4 gear on highway to keep up and 3 gear to make hills, with the stock gears on 33".

I am struggling with this decision also, since have no experience driving/riding in a re-geared jeep. I have 4.0L, 5speed, Dana 30 front and Dana 44 w/limited slip rear. I want to do more overlanding and off-road climbing at the destination. Not crazy climbing, but need to get to Rubicon and Moab soon...

Sorry I was hijacking this thread (not a regular forum user) with my build questions. I will take the non-TT elsewhere.

That is really interesting. I don't know why none of my shop bids bring this information forward. It makes me uncomfortable that the "experts" don't suggest an optimal build. Maybe just a waste of air for them?

Why not both Eaton? I have plans for Eaton. Can’t decide on 1 or 2 lockers. For sure rears with 4.88 regear plan.
