I bought the one with the stabiliser as mine was still the original one. But you can buy it without.Is that the kit that comes with the steering stabilizer, or did you re-use the stock one? I bent my tie rod a few weeks back and I've been looking at those, but I just replaced the stabilizer like 6 month ago.
It’s our favorite place to go I Texas we have been going there at least once a year for the last 5 years. It’s also the reason my wife and I both drive Jeeps.I'm still procrastinating cleaning my from our BB trip.

All the mods you've done and you're still sporting the "shovel"? I don't want to do it, but I will anyway ......I found out why the stock TC skid is called a shovel.

no not yet its on the list of ones to hit up, I have heard both are not the best to do after some heavy rains.You ever do mad dog or conasauga while out there? Two fun trails
Mine hates to be petted, but will chase a tennis ball all day long. One day she loves to ride in the Jeep and the next she will turn her nose up and walk away. Quirkiest dogs I have ever owned.
One time when my wife was pregnant she was out hiking with our ACD (leashed). Another bigger dog (unleashed) came up on her, acted a little aggressive, and our ACD instantly went all Lawrence Taylor on Joe Theismann to the other dog. My wife wasn't crazy about our ACD, but she loved how he'd flip a switch and be ready to lay down his life to protect his family.That they are
Wonderful dogs, horrible pets
Hey now. My cat loves me every day. He thinks I taste like chicken.Everyone knows, or should know, that loving something one day and going nose up the next day is a cat thing
All the mods you've done and you're still sporting the "shovel"? I don't want to do it, but I will anyway ......
I'll see what i can do.....lolPictures.. or it didn't happen
I'd had a rough weekend, so I took the day off, just because it was supposed to be a sunny day and I had a mid-day appointment I was needing to work around.
First thing this morning I washed the dust off the Jeep, wiped it down, and sprayed some 303 Protectant on the top and windows. After the appointment I replaced a retainer that was not correctly installed on my tailgate's weatherstripping.
I never understood why they designed the weatherstripping to stick out of the seam like it did on my Jeep. Turns out, it wasn't put together right by some previous owner.
I had to hold the top corner of the weatherstripping in place as best I could when closing the tailgate, basically needed to slam it closed, and the rubber always got jammed in the gap. This is what it looked like closed.

The right side had everything tucked up nice and neat, like this:

I pulled the loose weatherstripping back last weekend and noticed there was a retainer pin in the door metal, but not the rubber. There's a spot on the outside edge of the weatherstripping where a retainer would be inserted to secure the rubber, so I thought maybe the retainer ripped through the rubber; but nope, rubber was solid. I pulled the retainer out of the door, measured its head diameter and ordered a Dorman replacement.
Here's the replacement part:

Here's the package & part number if you need them:

Pushed the retainer through the weatherstripping with the tip of some needle-nose pliers...

Then used the pliers to seat the retainer into the door metal, and when I closed the tailgate... perfection. Didn't even need to slam it to get it closed.

Then I wiped all the weatherstripping on the doors with some silicone spray.
It's been a great day here; hope you had one too, fellow Jeep people.
