Comanche Addict (5/11)

  1. Hayden, the lights we were talking about are on page 10 near the bottom.
  2. I tried to message you as well. I'll take a set too.
  3. Spacers and bolts came in, mocked up and ready to install.
  4. Started mocking up the front brakes today, the write ups I've read they've had to remove 1/16 to 1/8 of material off either the hub or the rotor center. I literally sanded of the coating on the rotor center and they slid on. Drilled out the mounting ears and chased the ball joint sleeve threads, which went surprisingly well. I started assembly of the knuckles and realized the caliper bolts I have are too short. The bolts needed are M14 - 1.5 x 70mm, I ordered them online because I couldn't find any flange hex bolts that size locally.
  5. Finish coat on the knuckles. I still need to drill out the mounting holes for the caliper bracket and chase the threads for the ball joint sleeve. I did a parts inventory and I'm going to start mocking up the brakes later this week. Rotor size comparison vs one of my spare TJ rotors.
  6. I clean everything with CRC Brakleen before I paint. Best de-greaser out there.
  7. Primed and ready for paint.
  8. I was able to remove the lower BJ sleeves this afternoon. I'd been soaking them in PB Blaster for the past couple of days. then this afternoon I put some heat and few adult adjectives on them and they came out fairly easy.
  9. I spent part of this week doing some spring cleaning on the TJ, and started working on my knuckles for my brake upgrade.
  10. My TJ was doing this and progressively got worse. I changed out both front calipers and rubber lines and it stopped.
  11. I was wondering about the CA length, that's good info. Thanks. Approx what length are you running the upper CAs? I'd like the to end up with the caster angle toward the high side of the stock specs.
  12. Got my new tires mounted today, saved almost $60 a tire buying them from Tire Rack vs locally. I think they look pretty good on the JL wheels. Compared to the worn 33s on my TJ.
  13. The CAD brackets came in from RRO today. The parts pile is nearing completion.
