How did you install you Currectlync? I think I read somewhere that the Currectlync tie rods can be installed on top of the knuckles. However, that does not make scene because of the tie rod has a tapered end.not skimp on is the steering.

If you get a big brake kit Blaine can reverse the taper. Otherwise you buy a tapered sleeve, drill out the knuckles, and weld it in on top. There's a video on the BFH Garage about the tie rod flip.How did you install you Currectlync? I think I read somewhere that the Currectlync tie rods can be installed on top of the knuckles.

I have an RK long arm on my TJ (older model). I replaced their proprietary joints with genuine johnny joints. That was a good move in my opinion. I don't have any opinion on the current RK joints. The only performance drawback that I can point to is the tendency to get light on the front end on steep pitches. Not enough anti-squat in the suspension geometry. That seems to be a trait of kit long-arms on TJ's. I need to fix that someday.II’ll be installing a Rock Krawler suspension. They are local for me. I always root for the home team and try to buy USA.
Chris did a GREAT write up on a PSC installation, so I’ll follow his lead in the near future. Do you still have the stock front Rubicon Dana 44? How does the PSC hydraulic ram assist at highway speeds?
Two of six packagesi ordered two (2) Eaton elockers, two (2) Dana 5.38 gear sets and two (2) squirrely Dana 44 Blue diff covers.
this does not compute, or your definition of "budget" is a bit different from mineI’m on a budget. Goal is to run 35’s.
I’ve got a transmission shop w/ a good reputation installing Eaton E-Lockers and gears this week on my 2003 Jeep TJ Rubicon.
Apparently, when the OEM lockers are activated, the locker actuator inflates (Photo-1) and the plunger moves to the left (Photo-2) and the dashboard blocker indicator illuminates.
From my observations of the Eaton E-Locker, there is nowhere for the OEM plunger the connect to the Eaton E-Locker.
My question is: how does the OEM locker indicator interface w/ the Eaton E-Locker? What have you guys done when you installed your lockers?

The OE Rubicon Locker Sensor is only usable with the Rubicon locker. I'd remove it and install a plug into its hole in the diff housing. I'd also completely forget about trying to use the Rubicon locker switches and wiring, you'll have continuous flashing locker lights if you do since the locker sensor won't work.I’ve got a transmission shop w/ a good reputation installing Eaton E-Lockers and gears this week on my 2003 Jeep TJ Rubicon.

What model number is the e-locker you chose?

The model number of the e-locker is: EAT 19969-010
I have not installed the lockers and gears yet. Still jerking around w/ the shop. Good news is i just ordered Revolution rear axles. Fronts are on back order, w/ no anticipated ship date. So i ordered RCVs.
While i'm here, i got a question. I'd like to cheep out on rims. JK rims are a dime a dozens. If i get 1.5" synergy wheel spacers, what kind of performance can i expect. What will it do to my scrub radius. These are the rims i'm looking at. btw, i need 17" rims for the BM Super BBK (w/ master cylinder). 16" rims are tight, so 17" rims will have a little extra circumference.
To paraphrase Donald Rumsfeld, there are known knowns; there are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. But there are also unknown unknowns. The things we do not know, we don't know.
