so its been a while since ive been on here.... I dont like the amount of lift that i have. its way to tall, i would never have guessed that 6in would have made THAT much of a difference. holy cow. anyway, looking to go 3.5 maybe 4.:( hopefully my control arms will dial down that far. we shall...

Hahaha :-D autocorrect

Mine is doing the same. There is a double cardan TC side on your front DS. Typically its the centering ball part of the double cardan. Bad grease boot or mud seeped in, whatever. Stu olsen has a great write up on his site on how to rebuild your double cardan. Also, for much quicker results on...

This spot gets worse and worse every year. :D which is a good thing! Cant wait to hit it. Ran this trail 4 times this year stock. now ive got a 6in long arm and i am anxiously awaiting that freakin rock garden at the top. ooooo man. stoked

So far so good! I'm still waiting on the rear drive shaft and extended rear sway links. Links first. I'm lucky enough to work 5 miles from home. Under 35mph so far. After I work the kinks out ill get ballsy with it. It rides stiffer, but I expected it to. Its a work in progress.

Before and after.

havnt posted in a while, but Its done! well, never truly, but that will never change. got the lift on however, and i love it. they advertise that it rides better than stock and i must say that i agree. still running the 32in tires though. Saving for the shaft upgrade, lock and re-gear and then...

This is just a guess.... but I'm guessing you get at the bolts from inside the bell housing. Never seen a 2.5 though. But from reading above, me thinks you need to remove the bell housing anyway to get to the throwout bearing.......

Alrighty, so got a little bit done yesterday. Got the upper and lowers off on the front, replaced the front brake lines with new extended lines, cut the lower CA mounts off the front and ground sand and painted them. Bump stop extensions installed and painted black as well. Had trouble getting...

Haha, honesty counts for something! Lol. I figured about the same thing with the insurance. Thanks for the knowledge! Ill be keeping it a secret from them......

That is a flipping great idea! Ill eventually get "real" tube fenders, but I will definately look into that! Nice. And the list continues to grow.....

HAHAHA. sooooo that couple weeks turned out to be longer than expected..... but that was expected :shades: This thurs, the 15th of sept, it begins however! wahoo! i plan on following these instructions to install my lift. i will post pics of the progress, and ill post some pics of the pile of...

Buddies dad took us wheeling in his ol willys wagon. I was impressed with it. The thing was daunting to drive though. Twin stick transmission, no power steering or brakes. I think I was 13 or 14 and a capable driver, but holy cow. I might as well have been in a 747. I still have never drivin it...

Keep in mind I know diddly squat... and I only interject my .02 cents because I think you arre hearing jps differently than I am? I agree that to cut out distortion you will need an amp. Just makes sense. But as for the argument of sound stage dynamics, I wouldn't say I worry about them, but...

I'm not sure how it is where you live, but here in Co, if I went out of my way to find more jeeps to wave at it would be more like a second job lol. It seems as if there is 1 jeep per 4 vehicles on the road..... and that's just cjs,yjs,tjs and jks. People mostly look at me funny when I wave to...
