That's an interesting point. Can you confirm that the new bolts are plain vs black? I am not sure the original bolts were replaced with mine. Aside from having the wrong steering gear installed, I want to make sure they put the correct bolts in.

Thank you for posting. I just realized that my dealership put in the steering gear for a JL Wrangler! (part # 68507569AA). I would expect there to be a difference, am I correct? If so, I'm going to be calling back ASAP...

@ShadowsPapa Can you confirm this is true? Just want to make sure my dealer could ONLY use the new bolts. I still have some trust issues there... Got mine back today and there is definitely a difference, for the better, with the new steering box - just curious if they used the new bolts.

I posted in one of the original threads about my poor experience with my local dealership. I took it in to have them do the "over center check on the steering gear" - which they flat out refused to do, said Jeep's techs said it only needed an alignment, and that it "drove like a gladiator". I...

@JeepTrucker Looks fantastic. Does it have a Rubi takeoff set? What size tires?

Any other opinions?

@Ace310 I haven't installed the Rubi suspension yet. I've heard that it's anywhere from 3/4" to 1" but haven't heard that the front lifts higher. If that's the case, I might rethink the 1" and maybe go with the 1/2" spacer. I just don't want the "carolina squat" and I really only want to undo...

I currently have a Sport S, 6 speed manual, that I put 285/70r17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on matte black AEV Pintlers. I've purchased a Rubicon suspension setup and plan on using the 1" spacer from the Teraflex 1.5" kit to get a little bit of rake out. I plan on getting bigger tires, again with...

Another VERY dissatisfied customer with the Service Dept AND Jeep Customer Service. I absolutely have a dead spot in my steering. I was polite with every single phone call and visit to my local dealership. I said from the get-go that I wanted the "over center check done on the steering gear"...

I really appreciate it. I've messed myself up a lot over the years, other surgeries. This has been the most painful injury I've dealt with. Post surgery, I've been teetering on using it. Attached is a photo a couple weeks after surgery having some assistance from my son installing the Falcon...

I just looked at that vendor...price is now $300! You got a good deal.

I'm anxious to hear what your thoughts are regarding the brace. I'm still about a month out (tore my bicep off the bone) from getting the Rubi swap and brace installed. Son and I did the Falcon stabilizer and I was bummed with the results. While it certainly tightens up the steering/float, if...

My 2 cents - My Falcon Nexus 2.2 caused me to notice the dead spot more, the stiffer I made it. I have a wonderful upgrade, but only run it in soft because it's so pronounced. Because my dealership is full of assclowns, I'll be adjusting my steering box myself, and adding the synergy...

I put a Teraflex Falcon Nexus 2.2 stabillizer on and in the medium and firm settings it exacerbates my "dead spot" issue. A lot more correction is needed to stay in the lane. Pretty bothersome, especially when I had high hopes for the stabilizer. It wasn't a pain to install, but I certainly...

I've since bought a Rubi takeoff suspension and am planning on upsizing my tires...

Today is about the 4th time that I've noticed a water leak after a rain storm. It's coming in from the top of the passenger door, close to the hinge side of the door - you can see the rain drops down the window, door handle, side door, etc. Anyone have this issue? I've read here on the site...

@Scruf - thank you very much for taking the time to explain. Looks like I have some planning to do other than just buying spacers. I'm wanting to make room for 35's, and most of my driving will be on pavement, with an offroad camping trip every so often.

I'm planning on doing the Rubi + Teraflex front + Daystar rear before I put 35's on. Do you really need to do the below steps? I've never read anywhere on this site that it was a requirement to do this combo for the lift (not saying it's wrong, I'd like to understand why they're needed): $78...

I just tried the fuse pull for grins, did nothing. It definitely needs a tilt to the left to keep it tracking straight down the road. Whatever I did by installing the Falcon stabilizer exacerbated the issue, but I can’t for the life of me figure out how. I double checked the torque of the track...

First - thank you for taking the time to help me with this. Second - the Teraflex Falcon Nexus 2.2 was extended when I pulled it out of the box (has 3 settings - soft, medium, and firm). I flipped it to soft and had to push it in before I bolted it up. It doesn't return to fully extend when I...
