    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Yeah, as soon as it started making noise I parked it. After I put my hand on top of the OPDA while the engine was running I knew that's what was failing, no mistaking that noise/vibration. Ordered a Crown from 4wheelparts and installed a couple days ago. Pics to follow, haven't downloaded from...

    Noise when turning after lower steering shaft replacement

    Good news! Replaced the axle seals and axle u-joints; seems to have cleared up the crunchy needle bearing sound and leak.

    Noise when turning after lower steering shaft replacement

    Sounds like the wooshing sound is just power steering pump noise, didn't sound bad to me. I didn't really hear any clicking that was bad.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    I feel your pain, it's hard to find a shop that does good work. I recently rotated my tires and found a cross-threaded wheel stud. They just want our $$$, may as well do it yourself
