    The Bargain Box

    I squared off the bolts with a small grinder so I could get at them with proper grip and leverage. After some squeaking and creeking they came out. They have a lot of loctite for a simple sensor.

    The Bargain Box

    Ok so my memory was incorrect. I replace the IAC not the TPS. The TPS is bad. However, the torx screws holding the TPS have been in so long I can't get them out. I've already destroyed the heads. I'm running out of ideas.

    Toyota lights on your TJ! Cheap, quality LED alternative

    My inspection consist of them turning the lights on and off so I didn't even look into it. Especially since there are people riding around with blue headlights and LEDs so bright I'm blinded. Not sure how strict your state is.

    I ran off my 500 break-in miles and changed my fluids. Was feeling excited and ready to get out there on a trail. Yesterday, it started bucking like a bronco and threw out the P0122 and P0123 codes. I just changed the TPS less than 1k miles ago because it failed. I'll have to investigate but I'm...

    Does Metalcloak make a good track bar?

    Ah yes, I was referring to the original question of is it ok. No offense whatsoever. You had me genuinely intrigued since math is something I have to use every day for my job. Thought maybe I missed something worthwhile.

    What does math have to do with a bolt being safe to run in a slightly larger hole?

    Does Metalcloak make a good track bar?

    This is why I went with metal cloak. PO put a RE track bar on and it was 5/8 on the frame side. If you get a currie track bar they will make the ends whatever size you want but jks only comes one way.

    The Bargain Box

    Made excellent progress tonight. All I need to do is some bench testing and final tolerance checks. If that all goes well, it will be time to start putting the housings on.

    Now that I have new bearings I can confirm the input pilot bearing was the problem. More than double the play with the old bearing vs the new bearing. I tried to upload a video but the file is to large.
