    My Lift and Tire Combo

    Looks good! Just make sure your gonna like the balance between lift and tire size. I went 8" and ended up moving to 37s cause 35s looked almost funny small! What runners are you looking to get? Thought about just 4 of the 8" steps... you should see my girlfriend try and crawl in

    Fixed the sound from hell! (U-joint)

    Just broke 150k. I do not do to much mudding or super intense off roading... currently looking for an old Cherokee xj or samurai for that, but it has seen it's fair share since I got it. The joint was a ***** to get out... friend had a cheap bearing press... and we didn't have anything to mount...

    Heavy Duty U-Joint?

    Need to replace U-joint on my rear drive shaft... anyone have a recommendation for a heavy duty one they have used? Feel like a stock one wouldn't handle well with all the extra torque I imagine it has to handle with the lift and 37s

    Ok, will look at all joints in morning and see if I can see anything obvious. I was going to do my brakes soon, and it could certainly be that... didnt even cross my mind. my mind tends to always go worst case scenario

    Is this the issue??

    So... I hit a gnarly pothole going about 45mph tonight.. then I started hearing this wonderful sound from the undercarriage. I got under the car and think I identified the problem but am wondering what yall think... The sound only occurs when I accelerate and the vehicle is in motion. If it is...

    Good evening everyone, Been looking into best ways to transport spare as it will not fit underneath. I have given the cargo basket on top... but I do alot of outdoors stuff and plan on using it to transport gear and do not want to have to work around the tire. I have been looking at the Wilco...

    Starting my audio project...

    Also, I know it's not the preferred method... but installed additional battery under the hood which is linked to main battery for additional power, and I know the capacitor is old school but it was already mounted to the sub box so I figured what the hell glows pretty colors...

    2010 SSV Service 4x4 light.

    My code popped a few weeks ago in colorado... let it sit the rest of the day and the next day it was gone. I think it had something to do with ice in under carriage, or water in transfer case or somthing. I have seen that code pop from overshooting 4x4 hi and accidentally going to 4x4 low while...
