Default hockey puck / trackbar questions

First the hockey pucks. How many do you think i need for bumptops in front for a 3" lift and 31" tires? Two per side enough?


Upper trackbar mount. I am in the process of tearing the suspension off and i hit a bug and now i'm sick. When you work with customers everyday, it's easy to catch something. Anyways I didn't get to the upper trackbar bolt but did look at it for a couple minutes. I don't see how to fit a wrench or socket wrench on the nut. Does that outer shell come off? My TJ's nut was visible and easily accessable. Should i take the entire mount off and work with it off the jeep? The JKS bar is going in it's place.


So far i got the lower trackbar bolt off, shocks off, coils off, and stabilizer too. I haven't broken a bolt yet. This is unbelievable compared to the TJ's pretzel bolts that i broke so many times.

Thanks!

two should be plenty (thinking about it thats probably how much im running.

as for the frame bolt you should be able to fit a boxend around the nut and use a socket for the bolt end.

OK i have to go buy some boxends cuz i never had them or needed them. If it gives me trouble, i will just chop it off and pop out the stud then install the new one.

Thanks kyle.
