    Whats the story with the Commander?

    I almost bought one before I decided on the JK. I always thought it was a nice looking rig, kind of reminded me of the old school boxy Cherokees. With some fab work you could turn this thing into a helluva expo rig.

    Need some help.....

    I would rely more on reputation vs manufacture country or origin. Manufacturing is so global that rarely is anything 100% made in one country. You have the spaniard digging up the ore with the Japanese hauler, transported to the factory, processed by Italians, then forged by Mexicans on a...

    Need some help.....

    I have worked on numerous lifts and ridden in numerous JKs the past couple years. First things first, if you want to sway like a sail boat in 10 foot seas get the Currie Antirock. On road handling with that system is nerve racking to say the least, however. If you are off camber on the side...

    blower on a JK-pros/cons

    I wouldnt mess with any of the available superchargers out there, such as ripp, avenger, Hesco. Just seem like too much can go wrong, and if something goes wrong you are in trouble. Now if your Jeep never leaves the pavement, hell yeah, go for it. For now I would just regear it, makes a HUGE...

    Stumptaco's has gone over to the darkside..XJ style.

    Yeah those were the ones I had. They have a really poor service description, I think 111, less than my stock BFGs. I think the 35x1250x17 were not up to the task for a daily driver, weekend riding vehicle. They would sway,shake, shimmy, vibrate, bounce, etc etc. I hated driving my jeep...

    Stumptaco's has gone over to the darkside..XJ style.

    I HATED my MTRs. Those were the worst tire I have ever used. Im currently running the nitto trail grappler. Pretty good tire, at least for my Jeep they are.

    Shocks

    I run teraflex 3 inch on my JKU. Was using their shocks for the past two years, switched over to bilsteins. They are significantly better on the road. Ill be testing them off the pavement this weekend.

    Shocks

    Your going to want to match the shock to your suspension. That is why some aftermarket companies sell specific shocks "tuned" to their suspension. You could run a reservoir fox shock that rids like crap, unless you get the psi correct, etc, etc. What is your set up?

    Stumptaco's has gone over to the darkside..XJ style.

    Thats a sharp looking Tacoma. Why did you get rid of it? Im assuming by the tag, import issues?

    AEV 10 Gallon Fuel Tank

    That gas can is pretty ingenious. I suspect their are going to be a lot of copy cats with this one. Much better idea that hanging jerry cans out like outriggers.

    Rubicon Bent Axle

    I have, the axle cracked at speed, the sleeve kept it intact long enough to pull over to the side of the road. :Wow1:

    Rubicon Bent Axle

    Tell them to go pound sand. They are feeding you a complete line. Those specs are not that bad. The axles are coming from the factory with those specs. Your balljoints are most likely shot. Check out in order of quality moog<poly performance<dynatrac.

    Who told you it was bent? And how did they know?

    Do nitto tires pull left?

    Dropped the passenger caster to 4.3, same as driver. No pulling anymore. I had a hunch this was it, but discounted it due to not pulling with my previous tires. BTW, my homebrew toe was dead on.

    Do nitto tires pull left?

    Ive aligned quite a few jeeps to pretty good accuracy. I took it to the pros today so that they could take a look at my tires and give me some documentation stating if 1 or more of my tires are bad. Its allways something.

    Do nitto tires pull left?

    My MTRs allways pulled a little right. Now I put on nittos, and they pull left.
