    Need some guidance on my next upgrades

    Looking to some more upgrades to my LJ. I'm going to pull the trigger on a Rubicrawler, SYE and drive shafts. I have a 4" Rock Jock SL, 1.25" Savvy BL, 1"motor mount lift, Sazzy cable shifter and all 8 upper and lower adjustable control arms. My questions are... Since I'm pulling the transfer...

    Lessons I learned from installing Savvy rocker guards and sliders

    Besides needing the torque specs, why would Savvy send flat washers instead of lock washers? What prevents the grade 8 bolts on the underside from backing out? Obviously applying anti-sieze to every blots is a must but that's not going to keep them from loosening.

    Lessons I learned from installing Savvy rocker guards and sliders

    What are the final torque specs for the bolts? Especially the ones that utilize the nutserts!

    MORE motor mount lift problem

    Has anyone tried putting a very thin rubber gasket underneath the MORE mounting bracket, to help with vibrations? I'm talking just under 1/16" EPDM roofing rubber. Very pliable...

    Questions about the next phase

    So going with the SS SYE decrease the angle of the the drive shaft?? Thinking about geometry, would there any chance of contacting the skid plate? Since I have the longer wheel base? And yes, your opinion matters!!!

    Questions about the next phase

    The only reason I ordered the M.o.r.e motor mounts instead of purchasing OEM mounts and lift blocks is the fact that I personally don't like stacking products. If that makes sense. I like having one part to accomplish the MML. I read several threads and I felt the MML from M.o.r.e was a better...

    Questions about the next phase

    So I went ahead and ordered the Savvy 1.25"body lift and the M.o.r.e 1" MML. I appreciate the feedback. If I don't do the skid plate right now will I need to put a spacer between the factory skid and the transmission? From other threads, it looks like I'll need to get a longer fuel filler tube...

    Questions about the next phase

    Is the SYE and new drive shafts even necessary? Is there a true benefit to adding the SYE? Are the factory drive shafts weak?

    Questions about the next phase

    What about a SYE and drive shafts? Can I do the body lift and MML now and do the skid plate later?

    Questions about the next phase

    Looking at my motor mounts, they look a little dry rotten. I'll look for the OEM mounts.
