The building of knuckles

[OverlanderJK]

Secrets have been spilled.

That's alright. It's the same when I install shit. My phone is filled with texts to you, brothers, MTG, Eddie, and anyone else who will listen.

I found that a high lift jack in the Reese hitch with the tire on the ground behind the jeep works great. Use some soapy water and put the base of the jack about 3 inches away from the rim. It will normally break on the second placement of the jack about 8 to 10 inches away from the first spot. Don't be scared to put some pressure on the tire. I did 5 in less the 1 hour.

Discount tires does all 5 in 15 minutes.

The closest one to me is 2.5 hours so it was still quicker.
Just thought I'd share a trick for those that might have only one vehicle.
It's possible, just not fun.

LOL! This isn't a Teraflex lift going on your heep. And you assume I only text you two dingleberries. :crazyeyes:

Had I known you were having issues, I would have had Jen call you. She installed ours rather quickly

This is the building of knuckles thread not the whatcha cooking thread.

If you don't mount your meat, you can't have any pudding. How can you have any pudding if you don't mount your meat?

I just read a large portion of this "build thread."

Beautiful jeep, I love it with the half doors, gave me some ideas. However the comedy provided throughout all the derailments really takes the cake!

 

[RMC2]

Yep, this build thread is a long, entertaining (and sometimes worrisome) "build". It takes a few minutes to read it all.

Keep it up guys.

MTG's thread is the BEST thread ever. Full of laughter, frivolity and general shenanigans.
