  1. Jeep pulls to the right after lower control arm change

    The Mopar LCAs shouldn’t be different lengths. They have the same part number. If they were, the alignment would be inherently off, the geometry would be jacked up, etc. Maybe they have terrible QA. That’s not a lot caster difference on a solid axle vehicle. This is probably an issue of axle...
  2. My Stupidly-Expensive Onboard Air Setup

    Working on a stowage option for the hoses. I’m tired of the Bucket Boss bag getting in my way. I’ve got the final pieces printed and just have to install it. I’m still a little worried about PLA warping. I may glue the top surface of the brackets to the Diamondback.
  3. HELP! Broke body bolt

    Yeah, I really don’t like the torch. It’s one of those, use the tool you have, things. It’s easy to heat up the rubber body mount itself with that, which I really don’t like, and that causes people to be too gun shy with it trying to prevent damage to everything else. The induction method...
  4. Fox Problem Or Shock Surplus Problem??

    I’ve had really good performance from their Talas air fork. Others hated that product. My rear fox shocks have been mostly crap. Like BMW they tend to change parts, models, skews, continuously throughout the season. Most companies started migrating back to RockShox. The Fox Shocks on the JTRD...
  5. Fox Problem Or Shock Surplus Problem??

    I’ve been dealing with Fox Racing Shocks since the late 90s in the mountain bike world. Once, I called a talked to those assholes as a mechanic because every single one of the rear float air shocks that I had seen were different and I was trying to repair one so I need a good reference. Every...
  6. HELP! Broke body bolt

    I installed ARB sliders which is one of the most involved mods you can do since you also have to drill tons of holes in your body and install rivnuts. It went well, but only because I followed a process. I had issues with the body bolts. All the problems with them is well documented here and...
  7. Low oil pressure warning after oil change.

    I’ll try that about the dipstick. Thanks for the tip. I still think this is electronic. Of the two recent back to back days it gave me the warning, one of them was after sitting for only a few hours in 100° heat outside of a basketball game. The engine was still warmish. I’ve started it first...
  8. Low oil pressure warning after oil change.

    Was this at startup or while driving? I want to differentiate that my warnings only occur at startup, and the gauge shows good pressure. The condition always corrects itself upon restart. I’m never seeing low pressure, unless you count the few seconds when the cold engine has just started, which...
  9. What did you 3D print today?

    TPU cover for my Krazy Beaver shovel with their logo embossed on it. Their standard cover sucks. Okay, so I haven’t printed this yet…only a test edge to make sure it matches the contour of the shovel. This is going to be a real pita, since it need to print it upright, so lots of support waste...
  10. Low oil pressure warning after oil change.

    I checked the dipstick cold this morning. I really hate that goddamned thing. There’s no oil on the hash marks. But I checked the oil the week I first bought it and there was nothing on the stupid hash marks. There’s oil all over the top and bottom and sides of the tip which I presume is from...
  11. DIY Slide Out w/ Sink

    More updates: Still working on the hose project. The PLA is sagging in the heat. I’m hoping 3M double sided tape will hold them up along in the middle along with increasing the thickness of all the parts. Still a work in progress. I may have to resort to stiffening rods made from aluminum. In...
  12. Low oil pressure warning after oil change.

    OEM filter purchased from one of the Mopar online retailers that’s just a front for a dealer, e.g., Mopar wholesale parts, etc. My dealer wanted $150 for the filter. I’m running Penzoil Euro. I changed the oil myself a few months ago. My dealer wanted something like $500 for that and they spill...
  13. Low oil pressure warning after oil change.

    Right around 17-20 PSI. Those pics were cold idle, btw. Pressure seems normal/good compared to what I notice it usually is. I’ve never been able to see oil on the hash marks to the extent that I was confident where the oil level was. I always see oil on the top and bottom areas of the dip stick...
  14. Took "Jeep" Letters Off Tailgate

    I’ve always preferred that it says ā€œJeepā€ only because it’s obviously a pickup truck by the profile. The badging is a reminder that it’s still a Jeep. Not that my logic is in any way superior. To each his own. The ā€œGladiatorā€ tailgate badging looks dope.
  15. Low oil pressure warning after oil change.

    There’s definitely an issue only at immediate startup that either corrects immediately or isn’t reflected in the digital gauge, but I assume it does take some data from an actual pressure sensor somewhere. All gauges are fake on some level because pressure and temperatures aren’t going to be...
  16. Low oil pressure warning after oil change.

    Damn it! Just did it again! Anyone else have this? I dread trying to have a dealership look at this.
  17. Low oil pressure warning after oil change.

    I’ve now started having these warnings intermittently, not related to inclines or after an oil change. I get the warning while driving or after startup and immediately check the pressure at the gauge and see that it’s good. I’ll then pull over and turn the truck off and on again. I see the same...

  19. Renogy LiFePO House (Dual) Battery Install

    My ARB started freaking out. I replaced the chewed up power cord, but that wasn’t it. It was the 15A breaker. Avoid the one on the left. We’ll see how it’s replacement on the right does. https://a.co/d/1ZvR4Sv
