Hi Collin,

get a tire plug kit, if its just a hole and didn't rip you should be able to still plug it.

If its at the corner use a lot of vulcanizing and let it sit without load for a while. Should work.

Got the tire plugged, good 16$ spent. Then took her out for some wheeling at my buds house, pretty good time. Broke my u joint though so its just sitting at his house, I'm afraid it's gonna be there a while.... I'm broke

But here's some pics. Almost flipped it in the pond

were all good! turns out it was just my tie rod acting up. it was about 50 degrees outside so the bushings were cold and making the noise.

i have a new rustys hd tie rod sitting at my house i just havent put it on yet because i need a new drag link in order to run it.

I ran the HD trac bar and the HD tie rod with the OEM drag link and it's done great so far. Is your drag link messed up?

Just about done packing for the Fall Run

Anybody need a light?
Got them all on today, still need 2 more on the back

Now time to figure out this coolant leaking problem, why my right read suspension is making a loud noise over bumps, fix the half of my gauge lights that are out, fix my center console and overhead console, figure out why my glove box is crooked, and more stuff that I don't remember. Ugh.... Don't you just love jeeps?
