Doing It The Hard Way - JL Steering Box and a Front Stretch
- Thread starter carrotman
- Start date
Ordered some exhaust tubing on amazon, but that won't be here till next week. In the meantime, I'll try to knock out some little tasks.
Got a fresh coat of bedliner spray paint on my JCR bumper. I don't love this bumper, its pretty big and bulky, but it's what I've got so I'll use it for now. Maybe I'll make my own at some point, or maybe I'll go with one of @Fluxor 's when budget allows.
Could have used a thicker coat, but I only had 3/4 of a can.
I also did a partial alignment and got my front LCAs dialed in. One was set about 1/4" too long. I centered the axle too, but that will probably change slightly when I add more weight to the Jeep.
I did discover that my UCA jam nuts were a different wrench size than my track bar jam nuts, despite being the same thread. That's odd, I'll have to fix that at some point to reduce how many tools I need in the Jeep
Some good news, EnerSys approved my warranty request and will be shipping me a new battery. Dealing with the local vendor I bought it from was a total headache so I'm happy to have that over with.

I don’t know anything about it so I hadn’t considered it, but yeah seems like something I should go to. Your neck of the woods?
Yep, I’m in Ocala. Depends on cost but I’d like to have booth this year, either way I’ll definitely be there. It’s always a fun event.
