    Brake Ringing Sound?

    So, the mystery was solved. After I had my lift installed, I started getting a ton of wobble. My shop and I were on the phone a lot with Metalcloak trying to figure out what the cause was. After way too much time, we decided to look into the balance of the tires. It turns out that they were...

    You would think, but most of the land is considered sacred regardless of how (seemingly) unuseable it may appear. Even though Hawaii was annexed over 120 years ago (and a state for 60 years), there's still a lot of animosity over the whole thing. Maybe we can take donations through MJF to buy...

    Mahalo! Yes, I love it here. Unfortunately, there aren't many wheeling places on Maui. There's a couple spots on the northwest part of the island, near Jaws, and on the south side; but these are mostly fishing trails and/ or rocky riverbeds. Most of the wheeling is on private lands that you...

    Brake Ringing Sound?

    Thanks for responding Pthorpe84. It only happens when braking (and stopping) and not all the way through the braking process. It only happens the last several feet of braking and (maybe associated) the last 2k RPM and below.

    Hi MJF! I have a 2017 JK Recon with 35's and 3.5" GC being installed as we speak. Looking forward to participating! Wishing there were more accessible trails on the island (without having to be a Hawaiian). If anyone knows any, I'd appreciate a tip.

    My 2017 JK Recon is in the shop right now getting the 3.5 GC installed. Currently running 35's with 1.75" spacers. Here's the before. I'll add an after when I get it back in a couple days.
