The only issue I have is that my gas cans don't sit right in the holders - they're actual NATO cans, so I guess they're a little taller than the HF ones I had originally - and when they swell, it makes it hard to open the latch.

Thank you [emoji4]
It's definitely worth the trip!!
[emoji23]I beat my gas cans in with a hammer, to clearance them. They were hitting the hitting the brackets on the tailgate for my overhead basket, causing the same issue.

the big fucking hammer works every time! It hasn't bugged me enough to deal with it, but I'm getting close.--

Yep when in doubt, get a bigger hammer!! When it would get hot and the cans swelled I wasn't able to close the swing out. Had to do something. [emoji23]

Finely figured out what to do with the bandannas, I've gotten on different wheeling trips. I put grommets in the corners and hung them from a S carabiner.
got a this one last weekend out by the little sluice.
this one is from last years stakes and stories, in the granite bowl.
and I got this one down in Death Valley.

Bandanas and the way you have them on your Jeep are way cool [emoji41]
For your noise it sounds like one of the pulleys like you said. I had that happen couple years ago. It was a tensioner pulley in my case, you can actually take that pulley of the tensioner, don’t buy the entire tensioner if that’s the case. I also believe it’s same size as the other idler pulleys. Aske me how I know [emoji849]

Good to know, I bet that saves a few bucks just getting the pulley it's self. I'm going to be looking into it more next weekend, as it's getting louder and more annoying.

Finally got a new rear driveline. The stock one has been out of balance for a time and the last trip set it over the edge.

The benefits to rock rash [emoji23].
It definitely can't hurt, I know it was the driveline causing a lot of vibration.
Now I have to track down the shimmy in the front end, on rough left hand turns.

I wonder if this joint spitting Grease, is the cause of my front end shimmy

Not unless the joint is bad... The boot can tear and not cause any drivability issues. Pull it off the Pittman arm and see if it's flopping around.

I will be doing that tomorrow, along with a few other checks. I just noticed it today when I was laying under the jeep, looking at bolts and welds.

Good plan... When I replaced my ball joints I realized how bad the TREs were on both my tie rod and drag link. Drivability is sort of like boiling a frog slowly. Sometimes you don't realize how bad things are until they've been fixed.
