Build of my JKU

Stupid ferry bolts. I got lucky and was able to get channel locks on it and spin it right out. Now I need to go pick up some new ones.

I hope yours is a easy as mine but doesn't look like that based on the amount of bolt left.

Yeah. I haven’t decided if I’m just handing it to a machine shop or going to try myself.

I'm liking it. New Evo Hoop Bar. Trying to decide if I should move my lights or keep them as is.

I think they look good. Where else would you mount them?

That looks good! When did they start selling that or did you have them make a one off for you?

Maybe putting the light bar on top and moving the corners more inward. I do like how the bar protects the lights to.

They came out with it a few months ago. I ordered it from Bubba and showed up two days later.

I like it below better than above. It will also keep the airflow cleaner into the radiator.

Question. Do you guys measure or take your wheel base into consideration when lifting the jeep?

No like after lifting the jeep on a 4 door. Do you worry about wheel base or is that a moot point since the height of the jeep changed?

I would think that since the stock geometry changes with a lift that the 116 inch wheel base is not all that important and the focus is more so on centering axles, pinion, and caster angles?

I agree, caster, pinion, centered, and clearance for the wheels. The actual wheel base measurement is less of a concern.

I missed this till now. What I did was got some fender washers and used them on the ring bolts to hold it from popping off until the whole bead was on.

Did you have any trouble getting the ring tight to the wheel?
