Ditto on 26lbs, makes all the difference, but don't expect car ride quality, it's a jeep 😉

I have Quadratec, love 'em.

Welcome! I'm sure someone will respond soon-- this is the place for answers, that's for sure!

Already starting my 2025 tire fund-- it's amazing how much good tires cost 😬

Nice color jeep! 😉

Ditto on 26 lbs. Helps with ride and good contact. I run 31 x 10.5s also.

That's what I'm running, but on 10" wide rims. I love them, they have plenty of tread for off-road, but are pretty quiet.

Finally adjusted my headlights yesterday. PO had installed LED headlights, but they were way off due to his having caved in the driver's side of the grille. I replaced the grille this summer, but the driver's side light was about a foot low. A lot of PB blaster and got the adjustment screws to...

I once forgot one of those harbor freight led magnet flashlights inside the frame around the engine of my wife's suv. Starting missing it after a week or so, and there it was, still there 😅 Have no idea how many miles it has on it now 😉

My jeep spent most of its life in Virginia and it's not rusty at all. I've never had trouble breaking bolts loose at all, but you never know. Thanks for the input!

Checked into how hard it is to replace stock control arms vs bushings only. I'm afraid it will be over my head and I'm a pretty good mechanic. Advice? 😬

Thanks, I have used both before, Eastwood's coating is great also. I appreciate you pointing out the bushings, I still have a list, including rear sway bar links also. Might be 2025 before I get to them. 😁

The coverage looks good, I taped the holes off also, pulling back the tape as I poked the wand in to spray. I also did the problem areas where the rust seems to attack more than once. As I pulled off the tape covering the holes in the bottom of the frame, the excess poured out, so I'm confident...

I was very pleased at how easy it was to spray, and with 3 cans I did the whole main frame and the under cab body panels and some surface rust in other places.

Finally got around to cleaning out my frame and sprayed the inside with woolwax. Worked great! Also rotated the tires for winter. Used the 24" wand to get into the frame.
