    OLM mirror lense replacements

    It's a lot more limited compared the my daily with the convex mirrors, and the old Xterra. I found myself constantly adjusting the mirrors off-road in the last trip. Rock fields and navigating close trees that were scared with many body panels hits.

    OLM mirror lense replacements

    So the mirrors in the JLU have poor field of view. I was looking at adding the convex round mirrors to see better. But I remembered this brand that I installed on the WRX...

    EVO Enforcer 2.5" lift questions on JL

    And I borrowed an angle finder from work. The caster is at 0 degrees. But it steers straight and returns to center.

    EVO Enforcer 2.5" lift questions on JL

    After 3 moderate to hard trails around Idaho Springs, CO, it wheels close to the Xterra, but better, even with smaller tires. The automatic transmission is so much more controllable over rocks. After the 1st trip, I installed the tazer mini. I was getting a bit annoyed with how long the...

    The Ultimate TRUE TIRE SIZE Database

    Is there an ASTM or SAI standard for determining tire size? How can all these companies get away with these size lies?

    Anyone installed the EVO Overland Control Arm Brackets?

    In the 1st picture, is the driver's side with the UCA mounted with the spacer and the LCA with only the bolt. I tried clamping it and the holes would not align by about 1/4". I would need to trim the LCA spacer by about 3/8". I needed washers, so I headed to ACE, while there found shorter...

    Anyone installed the EVO Overland Control Arm Brackets?

    I did not try to install again, but from the scratches, it looks like the LCA inner frame mount is hitting the brackets weld. The weld thickness looks about the same as the lower hole misalignment. Pondering if I should grind the weld down or the frame. The weld would be easier in a vise, vs...

    Motive Products Power Bleeder

    I started using these on my Nissan 350. I would swap between blue and colorless brake fluids after 2 or 3 track days. You can no longer get dyed brake fluid for some BS regulation, eve though it makes it so much easier to know when the old fluid had been flushed. I still have it, but...

    EVO Enforcer 2.5" lift questions on JL

    Still looks low in the back. Also what would this cost to install and alignment? Offroad Warehouse/4 wheel parts quoted $1200 plus tax & shop fees. Took it for a quick drive around the hood. We have a road with very aggressive speedbumps and I didnt hear any unusual noises or binding...

    EVO Enforcer 2.5" lift questions on JL

    Eddie, your videos and guides are awesome. The rear lift went on so much faster. On the passenger rear uca frame bolt, I use needle nosed pliers on the flag nut to get the spacing correct. Then lined it up looking through the frame ond uca before feeding the bolt to it. Took a few tries...

    EVO Enforcer 2.5" lift questions on JL

    Thanks. I was able to pry the mount open and remove the brake line. I hate using a grinder with cutting wheel in close & tight quarters.

    EVO Enforcer 2.5" lift questions on JL

    One more question. On the front brake bracket attached to the LCA, instead of zip tieing it the LCA, would drilling out the mount to attach it to the shock be a good idea, or just cut off the bracket? It doesn't look like it would snag anything if left dangling. Thank all for help and laughs.
