I don't recall the price on the gears/shafts (tend to block out things like that lol) got them from jeepinoutfitters.com, & the Aussie is $300 from aussielocker.com
Thanks guys!

Ran the teraflex all jeep show at miller motor sports park. Which was an AWESOME event, & venue! I held the best flex on the RTI ramp out of the entire full size jeep class with a 645 score!!! Even better than the long arm MJs, ZJs, & XJs that flexed out on it...

This might be a silly question, or simply a matter of I just don't know. Once you convert the A/C compressor over to just pump air, what do you do about compressor lubrication? The A/C system is a closed system with the oil being added at the time of charge, how does this work when your basically evacing the system when you use the OBA? My A/C works like the bomb, but I'm digging what you've done here and quite frankly I dont really use it that much anyway (I prefer the windows down), hopefully you can edumicate me a bit on this.

I used an inline oiler that basically let's a slow drip of oil onto the pump as it runs! Here's a pic of the inline filter (left) & inline oiler (right). I'll show ya next time we hit the trail Jeff!
