Well duh. Is the right way to do it? I was under the impression that you could disable the abs.

You did. By unhooking the axle it disabled the system causing light to come on.

Lol. Ok, well I thought you could pull a fuse/relay and turn off the abs and abs light.

Default need help!!

although i never wanted the day to come but i guess its part of the offroad game and sadly my jeep sits in my shop after hitting a tree the other day. im in obvious need of body repair but also tore apart everything under the hood on the drivers side if not more. im wondering if anyone has a list, a diagram, or general knowing of all the parts under the hood such as the washer fluid holder and all the fuse boxes and ect. obviously i can look under but a list or picture could really help with knowing and ordering process plus the hood is bent shut and i will have to cut in off in the next couple of days. im hoping someone out there knows the pain of watching ur pride and joy sit in the shop and can help me haha. any help will be great thanks love this thread btw

I just did my Ravines with some Rustoleum black paint. It's really good for rattle can paint. I had it on my old steel wheels for two years and no problems. So I used it on these aluminum Wrangler Ravine Wheels I bought.
I just scrubbed them with a Scotch pad and 409. Then I taped the edges and painted them. Cost me less than $10.

this is the add a leaf set: http://www.jeep4x4center.com/rough-c...s-rc-670h.html

and will the shocks be enough for a DD with light trail riding, no hardcore. i have searched but i want to make sure that THIS lift has the right things. I dont really understand the difference in the rear spring vs add-a-leaf lifts but i heard that the spring kits are better than add-a-leafs. Any help is appreciated
if the springs are old I would get the new springs if not the add a leaf won't last long
