Something like that, the ultimate dana 44 front would probably be good enough for me. But we will see when the time comes. Got a few things to do before then

I agree and have learned the buy once cry once method though!


Edit: i like how you know these things about jeeps, join the jeep side!


Had a few things i wanted for the jeep but now i took some body damage and bashed in the rocker last trip. Need some armour skin to fix that

 

come on guys need some business

 

Add alignment to the list of things not to do at Noyzboyz. Apparently having the upper ball joint hit the coil at full droop is acceptable to them. Got an Amazon camber gauge on order. Won't be going back and wasting half a day for them to screw things up further.

 

Day 2 of driving without sway bar seems ok with the 700 lb coils. Tried a double lane-change maneuver (aka moose test) at 40 kph and didn't lift a wheel. Will try incrementally higher speeds up to 70 kph, which is what the European tests are done at.

 

Yeah, if I was driving auto Turd gen I would try to total it as well for manual...

 

Got to work and was wondering why my truck felt like I had destroyed the alignment. It was heavily steering to the passenger side.

Apparently I got something wedged in my rim, might be just dirt. Dont know yet.

It will sit at 10.5 PSI, anything over it starts hissing and leaking from the bead at 1 spot.

Switched to my full size spare at work, nice having a shop to pull into to change the tire. Instead of doing it outside in the rain.

Guess I have to figure out wtf is wrong tonight.

 

Deflate the tore and use a hilift to break the bead on one side so you can clean it out. That is assuming you have done the soap test and have confirmed it is coming from the bead seat on the rim and not a puncture.

 

I am pretty confident a rock is wedged in the bead, I will check it tonight.

Better inspection after wheeling is needed if I am stepping up the difficulty it seems.


This is in the rim on my drivers side front, holding air but I need to get that out.

The one that is leaking looks exactly the same you just cant see the rock it is farther under the bead. Has the scrape exactly like this one.

 

i didn't even know that was possible...

 

You and me both bud.

When you air down to 15 PSI front 13 PSI rear. You learn things.

 

have had sticks and stones stuck in mine. No broken bones though....


Sometimes mud and a bunch of junk can get squeezed into a bead. Its pretty impressive. Never had issues with the tire deflating. Did have a blown bead though...

 

I went from stock 540 lbs to 610 lbs coils and the handling without the swaybar is a huge improvement. It's night and day. With your 700 lbs, it should be fine.

 

I've seen branches/sticks jammed into the bead but never a stone that far in, Lol and you did it twice in one day!

Quick! buy a lottery ticket and a case of beer.

This is the best use I have come up with so far for the stock jack, perfect reason it stays in the truck.


Did this to both the front tires, fixed the one that would not hold air and removed the rock that wanted to deflate my tire.

Didnt even have to break the bead on either

 

Messaged arb asking them for a couple sticker scahse I didn’t get any with my coils, the girl there sent me a bunch. I got some that say arb locker on them if anyone wants one?

 

All-Pro did the same for me, when I ordered my brake lines I put in the note 'Hook an All-Pro bro up with some sweet stickers plz'

I got 2

 

Haha awesome dude! It’s good the companies will actually do that like hey free advertising
