Awesome, used to spend a ton of time in Granite Falls and fishing that direction when we lived in Kenmore. Now we spend most of our time towards Cle Elum since we are East of Seattle.
I can check when I bring it in for the alignment/Caster-set next week. When you say slightly different, how so? I saw that limited slips have an additive but wasn't sure how wildly different that might make things and how fast or if it's more of a cumulative damage-prevention kind of thing.
That's good to know, I wasn't sure of the specifics with how the re-gear happens. But the timing does work out perfectly to when I first started to notice things. Could be something else jostled loose or something during that time as well.
Yeah, my concerns lie if it's this much of a problem (It wasn't a problem last spring so i still think this isn't endemic to the truck in general but that something has changed especially with the shop monkeying with the rear diff, etc.) Although wind is wind and I have to fight that minor...
It's the pacific northwest, our roads have been wet for basically weeks if not at least a month or more so I'm guessing that's probably not the problem right now, but it's a good point especially for those places that get rains seasonally.
I've noticed three times in the last few weeks that the rear-end on my truck has gotten a lot less trust-worthy around turns when the pavement is wet (but not covered in water).--Way easier to put the rear end into a fish-tail and I did so at relatively low speed (35-40 mph) on curves I wouldn't...
I've come to accept that if I order one of their branded parts that it will need minor modifications to fit. The light bar was atrocious before I sealed it back up with weather strippping and had to re-fit it contrary to their directions. I'm quite happy with it now, you lose a little vertical...
Looks good! My Sting Grey Willys looks dang near identical to this. I can't remember which TJ mirrors I picked up off-hand, wasn't much in stock. They went on and are secure but it definitely wasn't a perfect fit (and still isn't kind of). Now I kinda really want a rear set, toddler be damned. LOL!
I didn't get the rear doors, too much risk of projectiles from my toddler bombing others on the freeway. Another member sent the rubber stop he "upgraded with". I wasn't too worried about the fix more so whether others had had the same problem and it looks like all of us have. Kinda crappy you...
Another member who purchased them bought a larger rubber nub from his local hardware store so it looks like it should be rather easy to do that and/or just thread a new/longer bolt on there, might have to lop off the end of the bolt if you can't find a double male-ended piece. Either way, at...
Nope just bought the fronts. I have a toddler so am not going to go four door yet. I can't guarantee he won't get pissed and hurl a shoe or something out the open space. I'm leery enough with the top off LOL.
They are the best looking for the money (IMHO).
Do you have a Rubicon or one of the other trim? It's just weird that the point at which the stop hits the frame on the Quadratec Gladiator has a strip/vein of rubber that would probably be fine to allow the stop to firmly butt up against it.--If...
I left one voicemail and spoke with a Customer Service Rep who said they would call back and have since gotten nada. Since it's almost winter, I'm going to take the rubber end off the screw and try and thread/stick it to the end of a longer screw and be done with it. I might try a rubber sticky...
Well, considering it was summer when this happened and I had the top off and windows down for almost two months straight, I can say that under normal driving conditions it was not painfully obvious. So, yes, it was not obvious. Handling wise, yes, kinda obvious, but only under very specific...
Why is that a dumb thing to say? It's called customer servi
Yeah, originally I thought it might have sheared off but after snapping a pic when it was actually daytime it's clear that the nut just decided to part ways for reasons "unknown". I will say this about that dealership, they suck at...
