    Trouble with severe vibration 25-50 mph

    I removed the rear drive shaft and the vibrations are gone. The driveshaft I have is a brand new Adams. This leads me to believe that my transfer case output shaft needs to be replaced or something is out of whack with the harmonic balancer. Can I just replace the output shaft of a 241 J...

    Rear coil bucket relocation

    Rear coil bucket relocation

    Hello! I'm new to this forum and TJ/LJs. I just picked up an 06 LJR with a lift. It appears that my rear coils are bent because of the bucket location. I'm thinking I should relocate the buckets. If anyone has an opinion I'm all ears. Thanks! /| , [____], l-—-L -OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)——-)_)
