    Front passenger upper control arm issue

    Replacing the front upper control arms after I did the lower and the muffler is kind of in the way on the passenger side. Looks like a 4’’ bolt with 2.5’’ of clearance between the hole and the muffler. Is this normal and if so how am I supposed to get the bolt out so I can put the new control...

    Bad rear control arms?

    I have a 2009 JK that feels like the rear end shifts when going fwd->reverse and vice versa, and makes a single popping noise like metal on metal every once in a while. I’ve tightened everything to spec but it still does it. My first guess is control arms but I’m not in the business of buying...

    Rear perch coil retainer nut???

    I’m trying to get my rear coils off and the retainer has a nut on the bottom of the perch that I can’t figure out a good way to get to. My new retainer nut has a clip on it but of course the one that’s there does not. I got one loose enough I could probably cut it but the driver side is...

    Rear diff (Dana 44) only holding 1.5 quarts

    Looking for confirmation or advice. I’ve been hearing noises from the rear end lately (just read that back and I’m only talking about the Jeep) and decided to pull the diff cover off and make sure everything was good in there. It is, but when I drained it only 1.5 quarts came out. The manual...

    Clunking in front end when turning and shifting from fwd to reverse

    JK is clunking on the front end intermittently when turning sharp at slow speeds and when going from fwd to reverse and vice versa. I have a locker on the front and it clicks when turning but this feels like something is shifting on the front end. I have pretty much replaced all front end...
