This morning i took my One piece Tom Woods rear driveshaft off because i have had vibration, now that i regeared it was at 40mph to 50. I know i have the pinion dialed in. Took it to Houston drive train dropped it off. By 11:00am it was done. Went home and installed it and it all perfect now. $95 bucks. I know Tom Woods would have fixed me up in a couple or three days but i didn’t want to be without my Jeep.

Your jeep is bad ass. Love the color and the details. Keep the shiny side up!

. Note, a 6pt 14mm socket will drive the spare tire hoist.

good idea!
What length socket extension did you use with the 14mm 6pt socket?

I've done that a few times with trucks, where I could have sent it off for free (or the cost of shipping it back off), but sometimes it's best just to spend the money to have it fixed locally as soon as possible.

Added Baja Squadron Sports to the A Pillars. Haven't gotten to test them in the wild but if the light they throw on my garage door is any indication, they appear to be awesome.

Nice bike, I sure miss my 99 TLS...that thing was so fun and the two bother race pipes sounded so dang good.

Thanks! It drives great. My wife drives our JLUR mostly (on 37s as well) and even she made the comment the other day that it rides better than the JL. I had it on 315s since the day I bought it and there is almost no difference in power between the 315s and the 37s and it still goes into 7th and 8th gear on the highway, 3.73 gears and all
315 is the width of the tire. The 40/50/60/70 number after the 315 is the percentage of the width of the tire expressed as sidewall. A 315x75r17 is 315mm wide and the sidewall is 75% of 315 (236mm = ~9"). The overall heighth of the tire is the sidewall calculated x2 + wheel diameter (9×2 +17 = 35). 315mm is ~= 12.5" width.

Got Decked today. great quality, fit and finish.... lots of bolts....

There’s a guy selling his near me for $650. Worth it? I kinda feel like it takes away the whole purpose of a truck, but maybe I’m wrong.

almost half price, good deal. I like it, lockable storage for gear for trips or work.
