I think it is from the wheel falling off, unless the shop did over tighten.
either way, just pricked up a new rotor, wheel bolts and lug nuts. I have a fun afternoon of Jeep work!

Bearbait is back together. New rotor, new studs and new lug nuts.
The inside of the wheel was a little chewed up so decided to throw it on the spare. I know it’s not too bad but just want to make sure it doesn’t lose air. There are a few cracks on the tire as well but they might have been there.

Finally installed an ARB compressor under the hood! Figured I’ll be getting lockers in the future whenever I get a set of one tons (hopefully in a year and a half). I installed the quick disconnect under the driver side dash right near the switch (will be getting switch pros eventually as well).

I loved my shittybuilt and will still use it, but it will live my truck. Another deciding factor was we have forgotten the compressor a couple timesNice! That's still on my list. The compressor I mean... Don't know about the tons

You’ll have to keep us updated on them. I like the way those look.

After driving with the Flex Connects for a few days to and from Big Sky, I can say that I am very happy with them. I bought these to benefit my daily driving on poorly maintained roads, I will still disconnect whenever off roading. If you daily drive gravel, dirt or piss poor asphalt roads, then I would suggest these.
I’ve never used anti rock sway bars, but I would think these are in line with those. The Jeep is not as tight as it was with normal links but not terrible overall. I do drive windy mountain roads and didn’t notice too much body roll.
