In addition to installing things like longer sway bar links and brake line extension brackets, when you lift your Jeep JK Wrangler to a height of 3″ or more, it’s a good idea to extend your rear axle breather hose as well. If you don’t, you may find that the hose will get pulled off the axle...

Running bigger tires on a Jeep JK Wrangler typically means you need to have them mounted on new wheels that have less backspacing. Of course, a wheel with less backspacing will cause your spare to sit further away from the tailgate when mounted on the factory tire carrier and that can be a...

I found a Rubicon RockTrac transfer case (Part # 5212350AB or AA), with 5500 miles on it to install in my Sport. This write up may be amateurish, compared to something Eddie would do, but I hope it helps someone. Note: 2012 up automatic transmissions have a different transfer case than manual...

If you've just installed a set of bigger tires on your stock wheels or on a set of new wheels with too much back spacing, there's a good chance that you'll have some rubbing issues on your front sway bar, frame rail and/or lower control arms while making a full turn. This is also something you...

Running big heavy off road tires on wheels that have a lot less back spacing will put a lot more strain on your unit bearings and that will cause them to wear out prematurely. Worn out unit bearings can cause your wheels to look like they have camber to them and much like bad ball joints, can...

This write is for the installation of the OR-Fab Tire/Can Carrier for the JK or JKU. This is my first official write up and I did this install by myself so please be kind. I don’t have photos of every step but I took photos of some of the things I know I had questions on before I started the...

Whether you've just installed a set of new brake lines or worked on your brake system in a way that required you to disconnect any of your brake lines, it is absolutely necessary that you bleed your brakes before you drive your Jeep JK Wrangler. Failure to do so will result in poor to...

If you're tired of getting hung up and dragging your super low hanging rear axle lower control arm mounts on rocks and other obstacles out on the trail, there is a simple and cost effective solution available for your Jeep JK Wrangler and it's known as an EVO Rock Star. Made by EVO MFG, the Rock...

If you've just installed a new set of headlights or, maybe even a taller suspension lift, there's a good chance that you'll need to make an adjustment to your headlight beams. Certainly, you don't want to be blinding on-coming traffic and having them positioned properly will help to ensure that...

In spite of what so many people on the internet will try and tell you, Dana 44 front axle shafts on a Jeep JK Wrangler Rubicon are NOT inherently weak and you do NOT need to go out and buy a set of expensive RCV shafts to prevent breaks. The problem with factory axle shafts is that they utilize...

While this is far from being a new or an original idea, I don't think I've ever seen a good write-up for making your own Rotopax mount for an EVO tire carrier. Fortunately, it is cheap and super easy to do and this should help you out. Please note that the parts listed have been linked so that...

As a good part of routine maintenance on your Jeep JK Wrangler, it is highly recommended that you service your NV241 or NV241OR transfer case once every 30,000. Changing out the ATF+4 transfer case fluid will give you an opportunity to inspect it for any signs of abnormal wear going on inside...

Contrary to what so many people seem to think, the number one reason why factory Rubicon Dana 44 front axle shafts break is not because they're weak but rather, because they come with c-clips. Over time, movement in the bearing caps can cause the c-clips to work themselves free and once they're...

I have been getting spit back when I fill my Jeep so I took it to the dealership to cash in on the "Lifetime Warranty" replacement for the fill tube. My Jeep originally came from Canada and when the dealership saw that, they denied me coverage because of reasons. It's my understanding that if...
