rylee144 Posted April 7, 2021 Author Share Posted April 7, 2021 I got tied up, I'll have to report back later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rylee144 Posted April 9, 2021 Author Share Posted April 9, 2021 I am out for a little put around the neighborhood so I feel better about driving to get it aligned in the next town over. Twice I hear a grinding sound when I hit a bump once on each front corner. Vast amount of possibilities but any guesses. Feels fine other than that. So many new things on the truck I'm not used to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiNi Beast Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 umm ok so hows it driving .??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rylee144 Posted April 16, 2021 Author Share Posted April 16, 2021 Pretty good. Couple techs said I needed to bleed the clutch again and reverse should be there. I need to drive it more to figure out the sounds it makes and if they are good or not. Its geared way lower, I hit 5th gear sooner. I got some wheel spacers for the front until I locate some smaller misalignment spacers. They said the camber is off a tad but can't get it any better. He said the heim components won't let them dial it in more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiNi Beast Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 awe yeah new sounds. i love that about jeeps, every owner should listen to their jeeps. my clutch bled again but still feels like it needs more. I'm having doubts about the slave in that rock auto kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rylee144 Posted April 17, 2021 Author Share Posted April 17, 2021 Re bled the master, we'll see how it goes. Found a couple leaks. Might need a new oil pan plug and a new seal on the slip yoke eliminator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rylee144 Posted April 20, 2021 Author Share Posted April 20, 2021 And now I'm leaking gear oil from the brand new axle shaft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiNi Beast Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 gotta cap those shafts, loose to much oil your shafts will be empty and dry out and shatter. quick get some blinker fluid should hold you over I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rylee144 Posted April 26, 2021 Author Share Posted April 26, 2021 Man she squats with only a little weight. Shouldn't have cheaped out on the add a leaf. Should have bought new springs back then. Hopefully I learned a lesson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
