Hey Guys, I got my rear 12" Fox RR shocks installed without issue last weekend but am a bit stumped with with one of the steps for the front. I have removed the factory shock mounts and have the lower mount tacked in place (with a best guess starting point). I have a dummy shock setup at the...

Day 1 Leadville area waiting on our campsite to open up. Easy day to make sure everything was functional :-) .. Birdseye Gulch to mosquito pass, then took browns pass to breakneck pass and back to Leadville over Weston. Real cloudy so the views were less than stellar but jeep ran great and...

Wife and I are headed to Colorado (Buena Vista area) for our annual summer pilgrimage to this area of the state, however, this year my normal wheeling partner can not bring his jeep due to work complications. So, we are trailering our rig out this year solo. We will be camping in the cascade...

Cycling front axle this weekend during mid arm install and it occurred to me that I have never heard a good rule of thumb for how much compression the Currie bump stops have after initial contact. What do people use as a recommended amount of shock shaft showing at the point the bump stops...

I have not used weldable primer before and several of my spring projects need it (I think). I have read that the primer should be applied to steel after removing the rust and wiping it relatively clean of grinding residue (nowhere that I have looked indicated steel required a wipe down with...

I am struggling with a good way to store the spare fasteners, washers, nuts, cotter pins ... etc that I have all around my shop. Right now I am bagging them up in small baggies and hanging them on peg board or they live in various coffee cans... so every time I "swear" I have something it ends...

Meanwhile out in Iowa... due to corona issues at the packing plants hogs are stacking up everywhere with no personnel to butcher them. Groups of folks all over the state are buying up groups of hogs and butchering them at home to help relieve the hog farmers of their inventory and filling their...

This summer I plan to re-gear to 5.38 and have been doing research on the proper parts to order prior to the build. My front axle is easy peasy, stock Rubicon Dana 44 (Or D34 as some call it) so that is straight forward, RG&A 5.38 R&P with master install kit. The rear is where it gets interesting...

After some driving by braille (likely Holy Cross City and Chinaman Gulch this summer :)) I have done a pretty fair job of polishing the bottom and drain plug portion of my G2 (aluminium of some unknown cast grade?) rear diff cover to the point it has developed a very slow drip. Pondering my...

I am looking to put together a kit that allows me to splice my winch rope on the trail (or in the shop for that matter). I found the fast fid product by Factor 55... I listened to the advice on this forum and sourced a rope, safety thimble, and fairlead from TRE but it doesn't appear that TRE...

Hello All, This fall I will be removing the RC long arm kit from my rig in order to prep for the new Savvy 4" kit. When the PO installed the RC long arm the frame side LCA brackets (both front and rear) were ground off so I will need to replace them. I found a few companies making...
