Jack points front and rear

[dcmdon]

That only works if you’re doing a five tire rotation. I have the stock spare wheel with a matching tire for emergencies, but the offsite is different so I can’t use it every day. And there’s the aesthetics of it all

Jack one side at the frame, swap tires front to back and repeat?

Or if you want to jack at the axles, then buy a second bottle jack on Amazon for $25 and put one jack front and one jack rear.

Or buy a set of cheapie Harbor freight jack stands. I wouldn't trust them if I was under the car.

But for rotating tires its a no brainer compared to paying someone to rotate tires or swap snows on and off.

Yeah, that works just fine, but I was getting hung up on X pattern. Like usual, i'm overthinking it

I've gotten lucky on all my rotations, I still had my free Jeep services, then I got a lift, and used a lift at my friend's last time

Thanks man

Your welcome. For what its worth I was told by my local dealer that Jeep recommends front to back with no cross over. That's what they did during a wave service.

Take that with a grain of salt though. Prior to the Jeep I'd driven cars with directional tires so no cross anyway.

But that’s backwards of how the OEM were installed. The bolt went through on the inside and this photos on the outside. But it’s not even close to going together like that.

That's wild, I just undid my OEM end links today on my JTR and the orientation was exactly like Figure 9, bolt head on the outside of the frame, nut on the inside...

I may have said that backwards. Originally the nut was on the inside but on the new links it’s towards the tire. I even asked AEV and they confirmed I was right and their diagram was wrong.
