    The rickety 2008 is back! P0128

    Update! It's been a few days since I changed it Sunday and I've driven a bit and on Sunday I changed the coolant sensor as I had changed the t Stat no long ago. So far so good! If it comes back on though I'll do the t Stat next. Om the original there was slight seepage around the threads.

    Added a Tail Light on the Wheel

    The night time picture is terrible but was the best I could take without taking out my DSLR which would have been a bit extra. But nonetheless, 20 bucks for a cool extra tail light. Not a bad add on if I may say so. And the girlfriend approved because of it "being an extra safety feature"...

    2012 Rubicon Unlimited Rust Review

    Yikes 400 for literally a piece of metal? I get that it's contoured, shaped, and has the holes set for the bolts but yikes. Lesson learned. Anti rust for the rest of our lives!

    Bilstein 4600 shock replacements on 2008 JK (front nylock problem solved)

    Hey everyone I just wanted to make this thread to hopefully help other people better who have had this same problem with these shocks or shocks installed in a similar way. When I encountered the problem of how to tighten down the nylock lock nut I looked up online in forums, youtube, and even...

    Jeep shock bolts headache

    Ok people. This is how you tighten down the bilstein 4600s at the front shock. Pull down the rubber cover, put a rag around the shaft, put vice grips on it so as not to scratch the shaft and tighten it. Worked like a breeze. And now the grommet is thw same width as the washer

    Jeep shock bolts headache

    Tried trimming the allen wrench that was a disaster. I just took her for a spin. The nylock nuts didn't move. Could it be they're supposed to install like that? Just screw them on until it hits the nylon?

    Jeep shock bolts headache

    I read somewhere too that pressing down harder on top as you turn the lock nut might do it too?

    Jeep shock bolts headache

    Wait so they don't make shorter arm allen wrenches? It seems like this allen key thing is the only way to go unless I just use a non nylon nut

    Jeep shock bolts headache

    Anybody install the bilsteins 4600s before? I got the lock nut down and she's on the stem but doesn't seem to be getting the upper bushing to be approximately the same width as the upper washer as per the instructions. Weight is on the tires again
