Haha haven't been back in a few days and see how my *******ness still gets bl people heated here lol yes sye is best wait til that tap part backs off and ur yoke Flys off yep seen it on two jeeps

 

My hack and tap likes to back itself off. Had it on there 2 months with 2 wheeling trips had it backed itself off enough to make it ever so slightly move on the shaft up and down play

 

Then it wasn't installed right. I had mine installed for 3 years and never once came loose.

 

It only moved when i yanked up and down on the driveshaft when I took it out. Threads were backed off about 1 turn. I put red loctite on it this time instead of blue. When I cut the T Case i had the jeep running in reverse. The cut is pretty much perfectly flat. I think the lack of red loctite is what did it. I only let the blue sit for around 2h before I moved the jeep, then around 8h til I drove it.

 

December COTM voting is up: https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f54/de...8/#post2990987


I may or may not have my rig in there.

 

my thoughts exactly.... I see plenty of people with good reports on this part...

 

I have also seen most people with the problem not cutting straight, not drilling straight but mostly not tightening the bolt to spec

 

I had mined tightened to just around 40ft lbs. Just checked the iro instructions which say 30ft lbs. Only logical thing is not using red loctite.

 

I got mine from a different company and I had to have it at 95 ft lbs.

 

I don't want to be at work today
