    Transmission linkage

    Still no idea what it does but everything works great. 5.13 1st gear 5.13 in the diffs and 4:1 transfer case. It just won’t stall! Love it.

    Transmission linkage

    know what this little bracket does? It does not move at all when I move the shifter or t case shifter. Noticed it as I was putting my new t case in and it was blocking my from putting in a bolt. Not sure how I got the bolt out without loosening it. I had to move it a bit to get the bolt it...

    A Bit of UNDER ARMOR for JET : EVO MFG JL Wrangler ProTek Skid Plates

    What about the bolt heads? One of mine is buggered up and now have to use the next socket size up..I imagine they would eventually become very difficult to remove. A note for the manual transmission owners. We do not have the little crossmember that goes under the auto trans pan so we will be...

    Sure it's Bigger... but is it actually Better? DISSECTING the JL WRANGLER Front Axle

    I went with the ULtimate dana 44 w5.13’s for the JL. FAD is gone and the wall thickness is .375..so should be good to go. Also got it complete with 1410 U joint full cuticle clip shafts for under 4k shipped. Almost went PR44 though. Hopefully I don’t regret it! Anyways I disabled the FAD with...

    WTB Rubicon fenders

    Looking for anyone in Northern CA who maybe has some take off’s. I’m about to cut my sport ones for a temporary solution as metalcloak and artec are both 3 weeks out for fenders/ fender kit.

    3.45 vs 5.13 pinion size

    Here is a little comparison between the two! Roughly around the same size head as the JK 5.13, maybe a tad bigger per the mechanic. Mechanic said the new 44’s are more like old school 44’s due to where the pinion rides on the ring gear. Interesting stuff! Can anyone rotate the image?

    Re gearing question

    Has anyone who re geared ( with a manual transmission) not used a programmer to set new gear size? I know with the JK we could get away with it. I’m really wanting to hold out until aev’s pro cal is released.

    Sway Bar Disconnects

    I also made some quick disco's using a grade 8 clevis pin with cotter pin that was 1/2in diameter and 2 1/2in length. Used some washers to snug it up. My buddy had some JK sway bar links laying around and we drilled the lower link to 1/2 diameter. It made a lot of noise because the actual...

    Rear axle shit cause pull?

    My rear axle isn’t center and I am trying to chase down a pull to the passenger side while driving. My rear axle is off center towards passenger side probably 1/2 or so. Maybe 3/4. Thoughts? Adjustable track bar? Already replaced front track bar Thanks!

    Part fell off my JL

    Literally heard it hit the ground. Got out and there it was. Does any one have any idea what this could be from? Says 477AA on it but nothing on google for JL parts. Just TJ stuff. I looked around underneath but couldn’t find any hoses missing a clamp. Must have come from engine bay.

    Oil pan skid

    What’s everyone doing for their oil pan skid? Evo has no eta on theirs and rancho said summer. Was hoping to find one sooner.

    AEV Salta

    Wondering if anyone has tried to put these (AEV Salta) on a JL? Backspacing is around 5-5.20 but with the wider axles (1" for my sport) was hoping that they would clear everything. I know the bolt pattern is same but wondering if the studs will fit the wheel. Any feedback is welcome!

    Hey Northern california

    Just bought my second wrangler yesterday. 2018 JLU sport with some options. First jeep was a 2010 2 door Rubicon. Loved it but needed more space and was tired of that 42rle and 3.8 combo. Never left me stranded though. Just terribly slow and burned oil. Look forward to this build and years of...

    JLU Sport

    Went to ask about 2 door Rubicon’s..came home with this. Someone special ordered a JLU Sport and ended up not buying it. Ordered it with the HD rear Dana 44, manual transmission, soft top, HD electrical group..so aux switches/tow hitch/ 240 alternator. Exactly how I would have ordered one...
