My life with a Brick

Great idea, I'd like to replace all the control arm zerks with a lower profile zerk.

Many of the 2nd Generation Dodge trucks use these 'flat' zerks on the front lower ball joints. They are easy to get when you're at the auto wrecker's ....
Some Cardan type joints use the type that can be greased with the needle fitting.
Good luck to you finding your wobble problem.

Think outside the box. I like it. Use a grinder or a lathe or what?

Went to a friends house and we put a 1/4-28 nut on it and put it in a lathe. It was so hard his carbide cutters wouldn't knock off the hex head so yes we ended up using a grinder. I think they look pretty good for home made, not like under there anyone will even see them

Me again, in April I should be receiving schrino's slabs I think so I'm looking for 35" coopers. Do I want the 315/70R17 or 295/70R17?

315s are 34.5 diameter, closer to 35s. Whereas the 295 is about 33.4. These measurements are off the car with no vehicle weight on them.

I run the 295s on my WJ and love them. They are 32ish high with vehicle weight on them.

I asked WJCO to change my thread title now that Brick is fixed and since I've never officially waved since 2013 or did a build thread I will use this thread. It will start after I get my daughter to bed, my wife is at work tonight
