Are you sure?? It could be part of the piston return spring mechanism that was never installed correctly........... I did a one wire custom build using a later delco that puts out 100amps. Literally one wire to the battery (or in my case to the isolator to split up the duties between two batts)

Or....... Think it through and pull the "un-pinned" handle out while you are not using it. Lay it down next to the jack, insert when you need it, it's not 40' away and not going into free walking mode. Oohh, another option, use a couple pieces of self adhesive velcro on the handle and a jack...

HiLifts are also good at squeezing stuff together. I carry a readywelder and have used my jack to hold things together while welding, bend stuff back to shape, pull axles back into place to fit a new bolt etc. They make good stands to help support a driveline being welded up.

So. Cal trail late last year. https://youtu.be/GD4rACOwvcE

I run two batts with a ford 200amp solenoid to combine and a noco isolator to handle the charging and maintaining of both batts. Power is supplied by a custom built 110amp alternator with a 4awg cable from alt to noco isolator, from isolator to batts it's 6awg. BAtts to starter, winch is 2awg...

The cage fits a bestop fold and tumble rear seat too, it's all capsulized in the event of "separation" LOL I have one of their finger die brakes, works awesome, I would love to have a dimple die set!!

Good investment! Check out these guys for ideas too. http://www.swagoffroad.com/Tube-Bending-Notching-Digital-Read-Out-Displays_c_55.html I have been using a HF digital angle gauge while bending for about four years now with repeatable results...

^^X2^^ The 2" is good for the main pillars and the 1.5" is good for supports and triangulation. 1" is good for hand grabs, tube doors, etc. Any direction you go, get the 180 degree dies, you can do 90 degree bends with the 180 but not the other way around. Shock hops need more than 90, some...

Behind my swing out carrier

Built mine from 4ga welding cable, small enough to carry but put through some serious current. I run a dual battery system with anderson connectors to plug in my cables, they have clamps at both ends just one end is only about a foot long. My outer battery comes out easy and can connect to...

We run a AFFF suppression system in our Jeep. Also carry two 2.5 lb K units, one on each side. My research turned up that halon was not good to inhale, a no go for my families safety. The reason we went with a mounted system was that it was quicker than stopping, getting out, opening hood...

Oh ya! I should add a pair of Hyperdrives next set. Cheers!!

I just bought a 7" Garmin nuvi 2757LM (lifetime maps) for $140 off CL last week, was so impressed with its performance over my 10yo Nuvi 680 that I bout a Nuvi 67LM off CL for $60.

New mount for my Nuvi 2757LM.

Yes, I did build it. Here is a link to the drawings. http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f8/cj-file-sharing-dxf-dwg-1521626/ The drawings can be cut on a CNC plasma close to you for little $$. They can be tweaked to suit your needs. The bezels were purchased from dashman on ebay for 2-1/16" Stewart...

Did a steering column swap to a flaming river tilt, mucho better!!

Mine is similar:

put new valve covers on. Replaced the leakers

I run the spot version (same price) of these. Work great. Nice to drive with to, illegal or non-dot on road but sweet offroad, better than LED for comfort on the eyes too...

I put a set of fox 2.0's on the front of my CJ5. Rally made a difference over the rancho 9000's. I did redo the mounts to give more travel and articulation however, so it may not be a fair comparison.
