    Gear Ratio

    Based on my experiences here in the U.S., I wouldn’t follow this advice. The better option is to upgrade the driveshafts to 1350 u joints and all four axle shafts to chromoly using 1350 u joints on the front set. The factory front axle shafts didn’t hold up well to 35s and moderate to hard trail...

    Gear Ratio

    As far as gearing goes, I'd run 35s with your current 3.73s and see how you like it. You can always re-gear later. Personally, I like 4.88s with 35s in my 2012 Rubicon with a manual transmission (I see you have the automatic). While the 4.10s were good on the trail, they'd run out of steam on...

    Gear Ratio

    In the past, I've had good experiences with Tom Woods driveshafts. Based on that, I ordered one for the wife's Grand Cherokee. It wasn't long before it needed new u-joints. Took it to a local driveshaft shop that's known for quality work and it turned out that not only did the driveshaft need...

    @wayoflife, I find it ironic that after “watching” your channel, they ask what type of vehicle you drive!

    When stationed in the UK, I was driving my Rover TC2000 with a 5 speed manual. Had to stop at the top of this steep hill and make a very sharp right turn. Normally, this turn wasn’t a problem, I’d done many times before with a little rollback to engage the clutch without stalling. This time...

    Gladiator ride characteristics, can I improve it?

    It sounds like you’re experiencing bump steer. Bump steer is when the angle of the front tires change as the suspension cycles up & down. It’s caused when the geometry of the track bar & drag link is off.

    We found some damage to our Jeeps. My son discovered he damaged one of the steps on the “rock sliders” that came with his jeep. We think this happened on the way to Rose Garden This is how we learn what works and what doesn’t. I broke a sway bar link on the GC and peeled the rear diff cover...

    On the way back, we took a detour to Wind Caves. It’s a pile of large slab boulders with the sand cut away, forming a series of caves. We spent a couple of hours exploring I halfway expected to bump into Injun Joe or a Sleestack. I found the caves fascinating, running deeper at every turn.

    If it’s Tuesday, this must Chicken Corners Chicken Corners is an easy trail with just enough technical sections that 4 lo was used for greater control to smooth out the bumps. The last time I was here was about three years ago and the upper part of the trail had been gone over with a grader. We...

    Got an interesting one… 🤔

    I second what Jeremy said above. When my axles started making that noise, it was the pinion. To be thorough, check that damned Rzeppa joint on the driveshaft as well. It looks to me that your pinion angles up too much. It should point about two degrees lower than the drive shaft.

    We drove out to Rose Garden to check it out. I knew there was no way I’d make it through in the Grand Cherokee and my son wasn’t ready to try in his Rubicon. Last time I was at Rose Garden was three or four years ago and the rocks then looked much bigger. That didn’t mean the rock garden three...
