Probably not 6061 but it's basically a sleeve over a steel frame so maybe it's not as important in this application. The ends which are the most susceptible to damage are likely welded so it wouldn't make a difference anyway.

Definitely aluminum. Look at how the tow points are installed. No reason to do that if it's steel. Also the color.

I would get something else if you want or need flares. Check out Nemesis, their fenders have a bolt on flare option. Looks like Crawltek has them back in stock...

I do not. I assume they are the same rate as the 4" coils and therefore about 1" shorter.

Why would they be different?

IIRC the CE LJ springs are 1/2" longer than the TJ springs.

Interesting, I never had that problem but I do run several feet of hose before the filter. If you install it on the firewall you should also make sure it's not too close to the exhaust manifold (or shield it) because that shit gets HOT.

If you are referring to a coalescing filter then yes, that is a good idea...

I get where you're coming from but please tell me where you get gears installed for $150. In my world of mere mortals that's $400 for labor minimum. You must also get a dealer discount on ARB.

You might check the serpentine belt too.

Try this - put it in 2WD and lift the rear wheels off the ground (block the fronts!). Start motor and put in gear. If you don't hear any grinding, judiciously add some gas and brake at the same time to load the drive train. If this recreates the grinding noise you may need a second person to...

I have no idea. I gave up years ago calling around for parts. I've had better luck on ebay.

Some might not be so lucky to have a yard nearby, or find the convenience of not spending a couple hours hunting them down and getting dirty worth $20. Other's might think of going to the junk yard as cheap entertainment. I'm firmly in the former camp :)

FYI to anyone wanting to do this and save a trip to the junk yard, the Crown part number is 52002659. They're available everywhere online for as little as $4 ea.

Unfortunately this seems to be a trend in the industry. With few exceptions you can't by a piece of armor anymore without a giant logo, not just painted on but laser cut into it. Wait...hopefully I didn't give Bestop another idea... To think a few years ago I was disappointed my Bestop had a...

Agreed. I was not referring to geometry, only that the name short arm has nothing to do with the factory mounting location as has been mentioned a couple times. Your right here up to a point. Remember that anti squat is not static and changes as the suspension droops and compresses. The change...

I'm not sure the mounting points have anything to do with it. For instance, I would still consider a short arm with a relocation kit (like the one in the thread with a thousand posts) still a short arm kit. These are all just made up marketing terms to distinguish products and probably mean...

Mid-arm does not refer to a singular product and was "a thing" well before the Savvy kit came out. Most before that including my own were semi-custom using Genright or similar 3/4 link brackets. Blaine has been building them for years and I patterned mine after his design. The Savvy product just...

I would add a cooler if you haven't bought one yet. At that point you might as well just have an extra JD (or two) and spring for the cylinder to get it all done at once.

I don't have any first hand knowledge but they were at the top of my list for a long time before I pulled the trigger on something else. If you have the means I would definitely recommend getting the full kit for $999. It comes with much more than just inner fenders which will make the install...
