    Swapping a Rubicon Dana 44 Axle into my 2015 JKU Sport

    I am running 4.88's with BFG 37's and it may be a touch on the low side. BFG's run a bit small so that could make a difference. First gear is very short lived so I will often take off in second if flat or slight downhill. When calibrating my speedometer I ended up inputing a tire height of...

    When to use the front locker?

    I had an auburn limited slip in the rear of my TJ that worked well along with a Spartan lunch box locker in the front. I had a Teraflex 2 low kit in the transfer case so I would run in 2 low on a lot of trails. I was crossing a ditch once where it was teetering between 1 front and one rear and...

    Looking for aluminum fender options

    Genright is odd in how they identify their fenders. The narrow only effects the front fender making it 2" slimmer than stock which lines up closer with the 4" rear. They had offered a 6" wide but they said they don't even list it due to low demand. I am really happy with their product and think...

    Looking for aluminum fender options

    I am looking at doing aluminum tubular fenders in raw with shark Hyde. I like metal cloak fenders but want to keep road debris off the sides. Looking at gen right or wishbone off-road, wishbone are a lot less money. Anyone have experience with either? Other options?

    Regear with 38s

    I am trying to decide on gearing and am finding some information that doesn't seem to match up. SSinGA said his son is running close to 3K rpm at 70mph with an AT and BFG 37's (really 35.6") but the above gearing chart shows he would be running closer to 2400 RPM while a manual trans would be...

    Lift Kits

    So I had a Zone 4" lift on my 02 TJ that really wasn't too bad at first other than ride was a little harsh. All of my jeeps have been a #3 vehicle so not driven daily. All urethane bushings were shot in the Zone arms in less than 3k miles. upgraded arms to Rubicon Express and all worked. Next...

    About to buy Game Changer

    If you set your suspension arm lengths as indicated in the instructions your caster should be pretty close (alignment shop said took minimal adjustment). As for the track bar; pick reference points and measure both sides before tear down. You will need to set the track bar with suspension loaded...

    I think the main purpose is to get the re-orient the lower shock pivot direction so that it doesn't fight side to side articulation.

    Lockers - Selectable vs Non-selectable

    So I am also struggling with what diffs to run in my two door JK. I had an Auburn LS in the rear D44 on my TJ and a Spartan lunch box locker in front. It worked well on the trails but the front locker sucked in the snow, i had to be coasting off throttle to turn. My JK has stock open diffs at...
