Made a trip last weekend to crawl with another big tire rig. First run of the day we realized I was only turning 3 wheels, the right front hub wouldn't lock.
I skinny pedaled my way up a small hill after winching over some rocks. We came back to the trailer and pulled the hub to find it full of mud and grit from the last wheeling trip. Half hour later we were back on the trail with all 4 turning. I've got some bearing packing and cleaning to do on the front hubs this week. Wrangler YJ V8 3 wheel drive |

Its got new ball joints on the axles, new steering stabilizer, new timken unit bearings, the last shop measurement was something like 6.5 degrees of caster. Ive been told rock the knuckles back it will steer better. Once the new moog stuff goes on im going in for another alignment. Maybe ill try tightening the steering box a quarter turn to.

You can bash it on a rock and it flexes but doesn’t take a bend. It uses Chevy rod ends They aren’t 1ton ends, but 1/2 and 3/4 ton I believe, I had to ream the knuckles out to fit the larger taper. No stabilizer needed if everything is set up right and not worn out. |

If you have adjustable uppers / lowers run as much Caster as you can without driveshaft bind . I couldn't tell you what my TJ has for Caster nor do I care . I have Savvy links all around and just played with them until it drove great and the driveshaft didn't bind . Mines not a daily driver but gets street driven pretty regularly for the past 9 years . It's never had a Steering Stabilizer on it , and the Moog ZJ upgrade has been on it for 8 years , and bounced off rocks etc . Currie Correctlync is in the shop though |

I realize this isn't a technical forum, but we seem to have several knowledgeable Jeep guys/girls here.
So, here is my question. I have a 2017 JKU that is a Big Bear edition with the max tow package. Basically it came with the heavy duty rearend with traction lock and has 3.73's front and rear. Also, the factory wheels are 1/2' or 1' wider and I have about 43k miles on the original KO2's in 265/70/17. Can I go up to say a 285/70/17 without having the PCM recalibrated? or will that cause me troubles? I'm trying to avoid the $ hit that is necessary when going to honest 35-37's. I remember in the 2013 Mustang I had to get the PCM recalibrated when the 4.11's went in. Thanks for the pointers. |
