Drilling Knuckles

[WILDHOBO]

With the plush 6.5" EVO springs in front and HD 6.5" springs in rear I still got me some rake too

So you have a 6.5” lifted gladiator in Honolulu? Do you also have a hot spouse and a huge dong?

Rock krawler is great springs, used them on my JKU as well, no issues at all. The reason I went with EVO is RK only made 5.5" springs and I wanted the JT to sit higher because I'm "insecure"

I’m laughing my ass off. I can’t believe you typed this as I was typing my reply. Good stuff.

I’m crying for real over this Volvo brake job. Front was easy. One of the rear caliper bracket bolts is buried in the depths of hades. It’s so stupid. I finally got it off, but no clue yet how I’m getting it torqued again.

If you can even see it, the lower hole is down there laughing at me.

@WILDHOBO, if its a tight spot may have to use a skinny breaker bar and just dont go past one ugga dugga and call it good. Can you turn the wheel and get an inch torque bar in there ?

Breaker bar would be great, but it was too long for the wheel well. I got it back in. I used gel thread locker to make the turns easier. Since it’s casting to casting, the bottom is the bottom. Then I leaned on it as much as possible. I like jeep wheel wells. I could fit both of my kids in there.

Ever needed one of these for a brake job?

I think for my pavement princess, those aluminum ones should be good (for now)

I'm with you there (not the pavement princess part) but I wheel light trails and washed out old backroads. so I am good with stock knuckles.
Besides I did my heavy wheeling back in the 80's and 90's out west.
I've been watching utube videos of present day wheeling out west and when I watched some traverse Bear Creek Pass I was like holy crap we actually did those with pretty much stock vehicles
back then.

That's exactly like me. I had all my fun back then, now I just embrace all the hate I get for driving a mallcrawler
