What have you done to your Jeep today?

  • Me thinks I blew an outer wheel bearing. :rolleyes:


    Driving Saturday night :driving: I started hearing the front tire screaching slightly, as if I was in a turn too fast. TREs and ball joints only have a few 1000 miles on them so I would doubt they went. Plus it's only coming from the driver side tire. :shrug: Can't think of what else it could be.

    Guess I'll put it in the garage until it gets warmer. Don't have time to fix it now. :doh:

  • When a man lies, he murders some part of the world.  These are the pale deaths, which men miscall their lives.  All this I cannot bear to witness any longer.  Cannot the kingdom of salvation, take me home.


  • Ballistic Jester Wheels and 35x12.50's just in time for the RC trip next Saturday.


    I'm curious to see how much flex you can get with the 35s and 2.5 lift. I'm still debating between 2.5 and 3.5 for myself.
    Also, how is the 35 on the stock tire carrier working? Fit alright? Any initial thoughts on stress to the tailgate hinges?

  • I replaced the stock tire carrier with the Teraflex adjustable carrier and I also brought the Teraflex brake light extension kit.

  • I look at it this way, battle scars on wheels, fenders and doors make it look used!! :up:

    I also finished siping the tires. They came out great.

  • after over a month of collecting...i finally installed my Spod with Aeroforce interceptor gauge, and a pair of Black Box Logistics LED spots on the windshield...can't wait for tonight to adjust them and try them out....they are BRIGHT on a 12V dewalt battery...and priced well too.


    The Spod is a pricy little switch unit...but after seeing it's quality, and ease of install....adding accessories are going to be super easy (just need to find 5 more since i have the switches :driving:


    can't wait to pick up my custom rock sliders that Zach at AtoZ did for me....they are done, but i can't get up there till the first week of march to pick them up. have to prime, and paint them so ill prob wait till spring to bolt them on.
