I had a lucky catch on a axle ujoint which had lost a keeper. We were in the San Juans when I found it. I tapped the protruding cup down and got back to the campground. I installed a keeper from an off brand ujoint. That got the Rubicon home to Arkansas with frequent inspections.
My 06 rubi has 65k and we do some moderate jeep trails in our SW Colorado summers. Boulders and water crossings are normal. My wife drives it about 1k miles each way and I pull a 5th wheel travel trailer.
I am preparing to pull both front axles for new spicer ujoints. I will check the ball joints, suspension and steering. What should I consider replacing with those axles out?
