    WTB: 07-15 Rubicon Dana 44 or any JK Dana 30

    Probably less than what you'd want to sell for, plus freight shipping would be abut $200. It may not be cost effective for a good clean D30. I'd be cutting all brackets etc off to weld TJ brackets on, plus locker etc. Thank you for the offer, but I'll probably be buying a pre-built from Currie...

    WTB: 07-15 Rubicon Dana 44 or any JK Dana 30

    I found a few, junkyards want $2k+, locals think they have a golden goose and want $500+. I've foudn some with bent tubes and they still think it's worth $500+, I don't get it, the TJ D30 is shunned, yet the JK D30 is gold?

    Bump steer problems with Rough Country lift

    Get a straight on shot from inncer C to inner C if you have the time, but what I circled is probably your issue.

    Bump steer problems with Rough Country lift

    You installed the Dropped Pitman Arm but not the drop track bar bracket. That's where you need to start, remove the DPA and leave the dropped TB bracket off. ***Edit: I see where the JK bracket is on the axle side. Still need a shot of the drag link and track bar though.

    Who did the alignment? Post a picture of the front end components and listen to what Chris has already said.

    Anyone know who makes this rear bumper?

    It's a standard Chinese bumper, probably barricade, could be smittybilt, etc. If the PO bought a front barricade, there is a good chance we can assume they wanted a matching (brand) set: Check out Step 3 in these instructions: Frame Rail Bracket...

    WTB: 07-15 Rubicon Dana 44 or any JK Dana 30

    C’mon, Chris! You know I did. They all want $2400 for a Dana 30, it’s insane. That’s not a good starting price for a complete axle rebuild, I’d be better off buying an untrue axle at that point.

    Has anyone replaced their pitman arm?

    Heat and look for the heavy duty conical pitman arm puller. You could use one of those plumbing torches but it may take a while to get warm. Part 2: Why are you replacing the PA?

    WTB: 07-15 Rubicon Dana 44 or any JK Dana 30

    I need a matching front JK axle for my TJ. Rubicon Dana 44: 07+, only requirements are straight tubes/C's/Locker is operational. Bent CA mounts are fine. Dana 30: Straight tubes/C's. I am fine with a bare housing. I would like the knuckle/brakes/rotors etc. Junk yards are asking way too...

    Steering ID/DW Assistance

    Side note: I assuming it is the same as a TJ, but is the track bar relocation mount even necessary on a JK? It seems unnecessary with an adjustable TB.

    Steering ID/DW Assistance

    Howdy folks, I need some help identifying some JK parts for a co-worker. I am TJ guy, so I need to confirm some differences between the JK/TJ components to provide a list of parts. The guy has death wobble, I know how to fix, but I need to identify the pitman arm if it it a drop or not. Looks to...
