GO get it! its even red! lol

Could even get the latches, hinges, and rear corners to just mold int yours for "easier" install!

 

that pile in my driveway has been sold

 

Would they miss the tailgate? lol

And yes i want do to what you did four your buddy's chop... Just need to get more advanced welding skills before I open it up...

 

Screw that, I'd do what I did. Go big or go home.

 

Just tell 'em you tossed it for better top speed, & gas mileage... weight reduction idk Haha

 

Seems one more possible Moab related problem is showing up. The Powertrax is a lot noisier than it used to be. Once in a while when I throw it in reverse (before even moving) it makes a horrific noise (clicking & popping). It will also click pretty loud here and there when backing up. I'm also hearing a repeated thump, thump thump while turning that wasnt there before. The lash when going from park to reverse or drive is also a lot more harsh than it was before. I've searched and searched and all I can find is similar symptoms due to improper install, since its been installed a while and performed like mad in Moab I rule that out. Any ideas, maybe I bent the housing or carrier maybe? I just thought I'd ask as my locker knowledge is limited and am wondering my best course of action. I also have proven I'm not good at getting the C-clips out of the locker (after my origional install fail and attempt to remove it I got pissed off and paid 4WP to reinstall it) so I'm really not looking forward to trying to take it back out for inspection. Any advice from those who know more about lockers than I, would be appreciated.

 

welcome to the wonderful world of beating the crap out of your rig and the oh my god what is that noise now phase Happy Halloween everybody

 

Happy halloween!

Sorry to hear about the noise/pop Jeff, I don't have any ideas as I Don't know what the internals are like on that locker.

Excited my last trip for the year is coming up. Need to just let the jeep recover and fix a few things...

 

I love both options... lol, but I think I am going to hold off until I have a tow rig, or second vehicle. I want to build a rear bumper with tire carrier like the detours but as high and out of the way as possible to limit draging. :/

 

I spent about 3-4 hours today welding and getting down a good pattern. neven knew how easy it really is... at least with a mig. anyone know a good cheap welder that can handle 1/4" ? I only have access to a miller 140, which goes to 3/16ths...

 

I have this noise but it is not coming from my locker. mine is coming from my u joint on rear drive shaft. might try changing that first that will be a lot cheaper.

 

A mig is not somethin to cheap out on if you plan on using it more then a couple times. I made that mistake and so did ryan ha, save up and get a Lincoln/hobart/miller.

 

Yep X2 lol

 

if it's clunk clunk when your turning I would say front axle u joints

 

I believe the powertrax is in his rear axle.
