    Metalcloak or Savvy in salt environment?

    I’ve seen a few guys here get tired of Johnny joints loosing the grease and squeak from mud and salt and move to the mc joint. That being said I have savvy rear uppers on my tj for 4 years and I’ve driven across the country 5 times with them and spent 4 winters in idaho with a lot of salt daily...

    Future proofing steering box replacement questions

    I have a Dana 30 with 33s, Currie/ Rockjock track bar, draglink, tie rod, but original oem for everything behind it (box, pump, shaft, pitman arm). My steering gear (power steering box) is leaking from the seal on the input shaft. I have put the Lucas ps fluid with leak stop in as I’ve lost fluid...

    Thermostat or heater core?

    At that time where I’m wanting heat in my jeep with idaho getting cold but this seems to be a yearly issue. It just isn’t blowing hot like I know it can. Every year I’ve been in Idaho (now the 4th)I put a new 195 thermostat from some auto store and with a new one the gauge is back by the 210...

    Highline battery relocation (genright)

    I currently have diy stock highline fenders with the battery still on the stock tray mounted to the fender. I have since hit the fender on a rock and have taking some desert trails pretty hard where my passanger fender (a thinner replacement fender) has now ripped in a few places from the weight...

    Genrights ideology to suspension design

    I wanted a make a quick write up on how genrights suspension is set up and why they do it. I am not here to tell you what is better within its design parameters, but I will try and explain why most here do not use their ideology. As always please let me know if I have anything wrong or needs to...

    Transfer case popping out of 4 low (not shifter problem)

    Currently have a 231 in a 4cyl that will pop out of 4low causing the shaft to spin inside. I have a cable shifter and is adjusted properly and when it pops out of 4low it sometimes is very difficult to get it both out of 4low or back in. This also results in the input shaft on the tcase to move...

    The cost of weight savings (highline fenders)

    Curious to hear thoughts on this. Motobilt highline fenders vs genright highline fenders both with their Black Friday sale (30% for Motobilt, 15% for genright) for the 4in flare set just the front costs 1,100 for motobilts before sale and 1,450 genrights but after sale price motobilts are 770...

    When to upgrade control arms?

    So currently I am on a 4in lift, 2in deep ucf skid, sye and savvy rear uppers. Front currie track bar and currie steering but rear track bar is stock with a non angled raised bracket on the axle side and all other control arms are (both lower and front upper are stock) I do hope to mid arm but...

    Things to do while axles are out?

    I have the ability to get a Dana 30/44 with arbs front and rear and 4:56 gears (the 44 has disk brakes) for a great price. If I’m lucky enough to get these, should I do anything to them while they’re out? I figured this would be a good time to do Blaine’s reverse parking brake since I’ll have to...

    231 popping out of 4 low, what looks wrong?

    Have a 231j (4cyl) that I have put an sye on years ago but had it grind sometimes only in 4high, I then put the savvy cable shifter on and rebuilt it with all new bearings and a wide chain. Since then my 4low will pop out of 4low and begin to grind (yes the cable shifter is set properly and...

    Is it a good idea to buy a used ARB super 35 kit?

    I have 4cyl tj with the 30/35 combo and have been getting to the point wheeling where a locker would be very nice to have. The only problem is in eastern idaho a rear 44 is impossible to find and I still don’t like the idea of an 8.8 swap for the tj. That being said I found an arb being sold...

    4-cylinder cross country crawler build

    I have had my jeep for 7 years now but most of that time was highschool and not knowing what I was doing or wanted. Since then I’ve read thousands of forums and i finally figured out I was on this forum the most. Not to mention this forum has so many people that are not only active but that have...

    What would the ultimate TJ on 35s be?

    I dont have a set budget bc I know itll get blown out pretty fast but 10k is what I'd shoot for all the suspension. One reason why I keep fighting myself over stretch or not is that ability to build it in increments if I didnt stretch it. I'd hate to redo thing or waste time and money on stock...

    What would the ultimate TJ on 35s be?

    Ya I already debated on the whole TJ-6 or not and while its absolutely bad a, it's over kill for myself. I'll be keeping an eye for your build since everything is a compromise but seems like a good balance

    What would the ultimate TJ on 35s be?

    So I know a Blaine build tj on 37s. So what would a blaine build tj be for 35s? Because thats basically what I'm shooting for.

    What would the ultimate TJ on 35s be?

    Both, I really do working on the jeep and having something to learn on so like coilovers would be more mod collecting if I didnt stretch bc an outboard shock and coil does it. For what I'm looking at improving is better high speed desert (I get it's still a tj on solid axles) stability up or...
