While heading back from a camping trip yesterday, we passed by the national park while episode 36 of the Kilauea eruption was happening. Note the plume on the right. When we got closer we could see the 1,000 foot lava fountain but the road was incredibly congested and people randomly slamming...

Finally got around to installing the synergy tie rod 🍺

I don’t think there should be any movement.

Wow! If they’re not looking into this, I honestly don’t know what to say. White shirt outside the tent using signals that would not be visible for the guy in black under the tent. And the guy in blacks signals are actually lower than they should be, but could be just for visibility purposes...

Tools are very easy to find. Here’s an old bottle opener my unit had made locally back in 2014.

Well they got both at separate campuses today so we’ll see what the media does with this shitstorm.

Unsurvivable. 😔

Yeah I’ve never done them before. I greased it before putting the knuckles back on 🤦‍♂️

Finally finished ball joints on the JT. What a pain in the ass without the correct adapters. Even with the right ones, the cups still didn’t really fit the ball joint shoulder properly or the stud was too long to fit. After a really short test drive last night, steering wheel felt much more...

Alright… who else knew but clicked on it anyway to see if he really was giving away a “Free-JT Rubicon”. 🤣 GLWS 🤙🏽

Welp, royally messed up the left lower ball joint on install attempt. My fault. Tried to use the generic straight adapters instead of the angled one for the C knuckle. Got the correct adapters, yet another set of ball joints, and the tie rod came in today. Gotta get this thing back on the road.

Track bar bushings and steering stabilizer relocation. Still waiting on tie rod.any tips on pressing out the bushing from the synergy track bar? Seems like it’s gonna be a pain in the ass to get the metal outer ring to come out with it.

Starting to address an increasingly hostile wobble on the highway. Ball joints are in the first shipment… new track bar bushings and tie rod on the way.
