Not true. They operate on a ratio between the 2 tires. The one in the air will spin appx 2.5 times while the one on the ground spins once. They never wear out, don't require special additive.
Had several vehicles from them. Great road manners, basically seamless. Great in snow and ice if you...
Early year front shafts are 1480 joints, newer are 1550, same as a F550. Summit or East Coast sells complete inner/outer/U joint front shafts assembled for $200 a side. Its a quick/cheap upgrade for a junk yard axle, plus the take outs are now trail spares.

Look at the knuckles. Some have windows in the bottom closer to the lower ball joint. 05-10, no window, stronger, smaller callipers. 11 and up to 23ish, window, bigger calipers. I have built 3 sets so far, 1 set under my Jeep, 2 others for friends. Half dozen companies do weld on brackets kits...
My self and the white Jeep head to Colorado next Wednesday. Blanca Peak trails first week with friends then over to Moab, Sand Hollow, Las Cruses, and Farmington the following week. Spend a day or two each place to scout out for possible fall vacation trip.
You're feeling the u joints on the front axle shafts speed up slow down. This is just nature of their design. Same concept as drive line angles having to match when you have a lift kit otherwise you get vibation. Some XR's with the full time t-case and 392 JL's have cv front axle shafts to...
Camper is an Omni XG32 built on the F550 4x4 cab and chassis, 6.7 and 10 speed. I haven't gotten bigger tires yet, its only 2 years old. Did a 3" lift, Ranch 9000's, upgraded sway bars, rear Sumo springs, I'll go 265 or 285 which is about 33.5" or 35". Current are 225/70/19.5 which is about a...
Getting the wife's JT fixed up. Daily driver and light duty use for now.
Did a simple 2.5" front spacer and 1.5" rear with Mopar lower arms and front shock extensions. Got a set of the XR wheels and 315 tires with 2k miles. Did the ebay front bumper and black friday 12k badlands and added rope...
The Harbor Freight is not going to fit proper. Either contact Metalcloak, Artec, Roughcountry, or even Ebay to drop in factory style. It will fit and look so much better.
The winch will require a small trim to the top of bumper. You can do this with a jig saw, cut off wheel on the ground before...
I have them on my JK all around, the fronts are same part number as JT. The offer more resistance so they compress less than oem. The 1" is a loose comparison based on your vehicle weight and spring rates. You might haveto fine tune. I love them!! I have them on order for the JT.
But yes, you...
I have run the Metalcloak on my Jk for the past 2000 miles. On road, off road. I'm sold. I have tons and about 3.5" of lift so the bumps only have about 2" of travel before contact. This rig is my daily driver and medium duty trail rides. With the stock style bumps, I could over compress them on...
Hello!! Not a huge amount of traffic in here but looking for friends! Ha Ha! I'm in Allen, just picked up a 24' Sport S for the wife's new daily but its gonna get some goodies. Like everything they start as a daily driver and start the evolution.
We have a JK on tons and 40's, still practical...
I have this one, works, maybe a touch big but wedges in place and doesn't need the visor down to hold it.

Years ago I had a chance to visit the Dana assembly line as axles were built then shipped by rail car to mfg plants around the country. The process was jigs, fixtures, computers, resulting in 1 shot set up that literally took minutes.
I have been trained in gear set up for 30 years, done...
Last month I bought 5 of the 40" X/T to put on our JK from our local Discount Tire with the warranty. The worst tire took 7oz, the best 1oz of weight. Tires drive wonderful at 70mph, very low noise, feel very good on wet streets. I was hoping for a more cost-effective option to a BFG AT for...
