  1. Where ya located? I've got a bunch of leftover axle bits and pieces from junkyard pulls over the years. Still have my original control arms from when I went to adjustable I think.
  2. Send me what info ya need in a PM. I live close by and am picking my set up in person instead of paying for shipping. I don't mind asking while I'm there.
  3. All my body tools are in Snellville...... and I'm in New Orleans. If I make a trip up that way for a weekend I'll take the MJ and straighten it out myself. 😁 There's other reasons for a new bed as well, this one is rhino lined which I'm not super thrilled about.
  4. Pulled the rear flare off from the accident.... damage to the metal under was worse than I expected. Not sure if I'm gonna try and straighten it or look for another bed.
  5. Yep, it works great. I installed mine in 2015/16 and it lasted until this year....I figure 7 years for a piece of rubber isn't too bad.

    WTB Fender Flares

    Found a set of Napiers. Thanks y'all!
  7. Where ya located? I'm running 31s on my jeep currently, I'll have to check the width of the rim this afternoon. I also have a 3" lift kit and some rims like you posted (the 5 for $100) with tires I'm trying to get rid of for cheap.
  8. At least you found it early on!
  9. I'd likely be interested as well. Trying not to hack up too much of my truck, although remaking a harness isn't the hardest thing either.... just time consuming.
  10. I see the guy from Oracle lighting pretty often around here (his truck is very pretty) and I'm almost always in my TDI not my MJ.

    WTB Fender Flares

    Yep. Reached out to him already. Thanks!

    WTB Fender Flares

    Got side swiped a couple of weeks back and need to replace my flares. Had a line on a set of used bushwackers but the seller backed out. Will consider factory, aftermarket, steel, etc. as long as we can figure out a way to get it to New Orleans, La.
  13. I have one as well....I took it off and replaced it with a smaller ball shaped one I swiped from the junkyard and mounted in the front bumper.
  14. Got the new oil pan and gasket installed. Forgot to torque the bolts down and it leaked a bit at first but we're looking good now.
  15. Do these just give you additional tie down points inside the bed? My pic is my prepping to trim my fender after my truck got hit (damage was down low, was gonna trim anyway).
  16. Found a set of new Dorman chrome side mirrors locally. They have the remote adjust which is why I like these more than the aftermarket ones on Amazon. They're about $60 each..... has anyone used these? Thoughts on quality?
  17. What did you do for steering? I like RRO's rear lift kit but want metalcloak dual rates up front. As for steering, it seems everyone has an opinion on what works and what doesn't. RRO's steering kit checks a lot of boxes for geometry but the bolt together ends to the existing steering knuckles is a failure point I don't want to deal with.
  18. How do you like the Rocky Road lift?
  19. Here in New Orleans you'll see people put boots on their cars or trailers. A bit overkill but they seem to work.
  20. Get a gallon. Do at least 2 coats. I used just over a half gallon but was a bit light on the first coat and have a couple spots I'd like to hit again. Also, pull your railing off the bottom. It's super easy to do (sheet metal screws) and then you can reinstall with new foam and a new vinyl insert over the screws. Saves a bunch of time on taping.
  21. You're not talking about the two vertical windows are you?
  22. The shorter side is the driver's side. I just spent 15 minutes with a rubber mallet "remembering" that. This is the passenger side measured from the back of the wheel stud. Looks like right over 29-¼". The driver's side would be slightly shorter (about ½" based on eyeball measurements). My guess is you got the wrong one.
  23. I bought hex flange bolts off boltdepot.com ....as you can see I had to grind the bottom most bolt a little to clearance it. Much much easier to install/remove. The passenger side I had to grind off 1 or two of the old bolt heads then remove the bolt body with vice grips.
