Interesting story, but you didn't mention that you actually checked for weak spark as if it was low voltage. Renix might be different but on OBD2 the PCM operates the ignition coil's ground based on input from the CPS. Improper duration or off timing should still result in the same voltage.

they'll fit the wheel. Although if they are OEM wheels they will not fit on the truck in that configuration. You need aftermarket wheels/spacers or else the inside of the tires will rub the leaf springs and LCAs (you need 4" or less of backspacing to make it work - oem wheels are 5.25").

they are aftermarket steel wheels not sure on backspacing bought the jeep with them and some junk 31's. how do i measurebackspacing exactly? just take wheel off and measure mounting spot to edge of wheel?
Well for 31s I know you want 4.5in of BS or less. I have 31/10.5's on 15x7s with stock BS and they rub on the LCA's. And Im in the say situation as you trying to figure out what size bump stops I need.

for 12.5" tires i'd say at least 4". You may be able to get away with slightly more since it will be mounted on an 8" wheel.

Easiest/best way to plug a rear brake hardline? It's leaking, and I don't care much about fixing it right now cause I don't have operative rear brakes. I just need to stop the leak.
Could I just bend the line on itself to crimp it? Would that hold up to driving?
(The problem will be fixed when I swap in my D44 with new hard lines.)
