Got my cracked windshield replaced. Pretty disappointed I lost the T-Rex and Jeep in the corner. Had the windshield replaced on my JK wrangler back when and they had the OEM Altitude windshield.

I did the Hot Head Headliners. Not a bad job. Little time consuming but i did add a TON more heat barrier and sound deadening than most….

We'll see if this works any better.
Initial tests look hopeful!

2 questions. What made you go with synergy, and with the RCV can you run 4wd on dryer surfaces with less wheel hop?

Drove it to pickup a new creeper after cleaning 1,200 plus miles of bugs off it from vacation.

I need to add a big thanks to @Discount Tire in Lancaster, OH for quick installation of my five Method MR316 wheel last weekend. My appointment was 11:15 and I was back on the road by 12:30. They were helpful and highly proficient with the job.

Synergy because it seemed to be a good balance of cost and quality. I didn't adjustable or rebuildabe. I just want them to work with a squirt of grease every now and then.

For the RCVs, it's mostly a stupid overkill thing. I don't plan on testing their limits, and they should be good enough for 37s. And even off road in a tight turn y in 4x4 you'll feel lurching due to u-joints. I did a tight turn after installing the Axles, and I definitely felt a drag, but tit was smooth.

Made my own diff breather kit. Wasn't happy with the ARB kit. Pieced together my own kit with full 5/16 hose (with heat shielding tape by the runs next to the cats) all the way to the rear axle, transfer case and front axle.
Added a sintered filter. Total cost about $75 which is still cheaper than the ARB kit

Question. How much clearance you have between the lower ball joint and the RCV boot?
