  1. My Expensive Lesson. Loose Steering Issue Resolved

    I'm right there with you, man. Had some clunking in the steering. Thought I had it tracked down to a worn drag link bushing. Replaced the tie rod, and drag link since it was all stock stuff anyways. Added a steer smarts trackbar brace too, which meant I had to drop the frame side of the...
  2. Rear antirock - who has it??

    Yea that is the likely choice when I switch shocks. As part of the TF ext travel kit, I installed the rear spring retainers. Currently, I'm running the Rough Country Vertex shocks. I got a great deal on them and honestly, they've performed perfectly for my needs. As with most builds, the new...
  3. Rear antirock - who has it??

    I second your buddies experience. I have the TF version. Install wasn't too bad. Drilling is tedious, if only to ensure that you line everything up correctly. I tow a 4500lb (dry weight, so probably 5100ish loaded) 24' TT and could tell no difference between the stock and TF swaybar, in terms of...
  4. Control arms

    Got me on that one. Indeed bushings need to be replaced over time given variables of use and operating environment.
  5. How to wake up on the beach- A simple guide to Cape Lookout

    Thanks for the video! I am headed there in late July for the first time. Looking forward to it, and any tips are always welcome.
  6. Control arms

    If you're looking for control arms that are maintenance-free - don't get anything with greasable joints (ie. Johnny Joints). They'll wear out and start getting squeaky/clunky eventually, depending on climate. Anecdotally, I switched from Evo control arms (that had johnny joints), to Teraflex...
  7. Rear Window Leak - Difficulty with Dealerships

    Thanks man. As far as the POC, I'll ask my bro in-law who has been handling this for me. I'll send you a PM if not today, then tomorrow.
  8. Rear Window Leak - Difficulty with Dealerships

    Best of luck with that! I'm moving near Augusta in a couple months. Any good wheeling spots near this corner of the states? Not familiar with Georgia at all.
  9. Grrrrrr I should sell my jeep..

    I had to move overseas for two years not too long after building my Gladiator. I decided to store it for a little over a year. Visited the states this past summer and pulled it out of storage. Now its being looked after by a fam member. I'll be headed back this summer and am looking forward to...
  10. TheTrailGeek - Gator Green Jeep Gladiator Rubicon Build

    Awesome, thanks! I had RCVs on my XJ and yea they can be a little messy. Guess its the price you pay for that sort of thing.
  11. TheTrailGeek - Gator Green Jeep Gladiator Rubicon Build

    Looks great! I am looking at the exact same upgrades. Did you find the balljoints and new steering linkage improved the steering/handling of the Jeep? TIA
  12. Rear Window Leak - Difficulty with Dealerships

    After a couple back and forths between a local dealer and corporate, they agreed that it is in fact covered under warranty (there was debate). Because no dealer I found locally would fix it themselves, corporate said I could find a licensed auto glass repair company and then submit the receipts...
  13. [CLOSED] WINNER ANNOUNCED: DIY Windshield Protection Film Giveaway -- ExoShield ULTRA

    x1 on my JKU, x1 on my JLU, x0 on my JT (only a matter of time). Cool looking product 👍
  14. Rear Window Leak - Difficulty with Dealerships

    I was folding the rear seat top down and noticed it was damp, then noticed there was water intrusion tracks coming down from the rear window. Confirmed it was leaking with a garden hose.
  15. Rear Window Leak - Difficulty with Dealerships

    Thanks for the info, hoping I can get it fixed soon.
  16. Rear Window Leak - Difficulty with Dealerships

    What luck, haha. I don't mind the wait time so much as I mind the thought of my Jeep sitting at the dealer with a busted back window for 3-5 weeks. I can only cynically imagine they won't give due diligence to making sure its sealed from the elements properly. I may pursue your method if I...
  17. Rear Window Leak - Difficulty with Dealerships

    Hello all, My JTR recently developed the well-documented rear window leak on the hardtop. It's still well within my warranty period, however I am having some issues getting it fixed. I was told by the closest dealer to my house that they "don't do that type of repair". I didn't press because...
  18. You’re my boy Blue (Diesel JT Build)

    What an outrageous build. I love it.
  19. 3 Project Jeeps at the same time.

    I like your style, and being able to give your boys something cool to drive around is always a thumbs up in my opinion.
  20. Nice Job, Gladiator!

    That is most definitely an AEV Brute. Still cool though.
