    Western PA Grit, Suds & Grub

    A few members started discussing a trip somewhere in Western Pennsylvania July 30. Tentative plans would be to meet up in the morning, wheel somewhere, then find a place for Suds & Grub that evening. So far there are 7 of us interested: DChew Prime8 PGH08JK jeffj Hinrichs Napalm90 Saharaunlmtd...

    I offloaded a few things to friends. Here is what's left before I go to Craig's List. 2000 miles on everything unless noted. Jeep was delivered Dec 20, put on a lift Jan 15, so these parts saw 1 month of service unless otherwise noted. I can ship and add shipping cost: (5) 2013 Rubicon...

    Oh yeah those will be fine. You can just weld those right to the face of the EVO bracket; forget the flat plate I rambled on about. The tie rod clamp for the driver side is not shown in their pick. I think you will need one of those. See the pic below. If they don't have one in the kit and...

    John, It would be great to see you out there with your Chevelle! Got the sliders installed (thanks for the help jpop!). Here is Dale (welder) going at it: Prime8, here are some dimensions for the passenger side ram mount: Plate thickness 1/8" - I can't measure it very well because of the...

    Flex test went ok. It didn't stuff as much as I thought it would. The front did not reach the bump stops. Makes me wonder if my swaybar links are too long.

    Sway bar end link, lengths.

    I was wondering about this too. Mine sits like this in the pic below. I will check full droop tomorrow, but I wonder if mine is too high. I've got 2-3 inches before I hit the bottom of the King bumps, then another couple inches of travel in the bumps. I'm curious if this will limit my up travel.

    Interesting. That makes some sense with coasting... One more reason to get rid of the short section of flex. A pic from this morning. Fitting, I suppose :)

    Loud noise from the front differential during a turn

    Got it back up on the lift. Pulled the front diff cover, yuk. The R&P look fine, but the locker looks bad, and there are metal shavings everywhere. This thing was driven a total of about 1/2 mile. So the question now is what do I need to replace? The R&P look pretty good, but I can only...

    Loud noise from the front differential during a turn

    Took Oso on his maiden voyage yesterday and it wasn't good. When in an extended tight turn for maybe 10 feet or so (like pulling out of a driveway) there is a loud clank from the front end then the Jeep wants to pull to one side. It feels almost like it is in 4wd on pavement. Then it works...
