I was wondering how bad the clicking would be with the locker in the rear. I'm still collecting parts for my lift and plan on doing a re-gear and locker at the same time, but I'm seriously considering locking the front and leaving the rear open just to make daily driving more bearable.
So...... since you're sans front bumper, are there any plans for a custom wench bumper?

Yeah my Aussie is loud. But my buddy has a Spartan and says he can't hear it at all. I thought about locking the front first but o thought turning would be a hassle so I went with a rear locker. I don't think its bad its just you gotta get used to it and to the looks you get everywhere. And thanks! Probably not a winch bumper, my boyfriend Tim has a TJ now and so that'll probably get a winch. I'm thinking about a cheap stubby one or a tube one. I'd like to make my own. But I don't have the skill, tools or materials for it. Running out of money right now so she'll be bumperless for a while.Originally Posted by chipmaker

Is it a limited slip? Maybe since its not a lunch box locker that could be also the reason. Idk. Kind of new to lockers, how they work, etc.Originally Posted by cleenrob

Nope its a full case locker. Maybe my exhaust is loud enough to cover any soundsOriginally Posted by _Green98XJ_

Long story short there was a mix up with my shocks. (my fault though) so my front ones are on their way, but I have to order the back ones. Oops.
I would like to recommend Serious Off-road, their customer service is awesome. They got back with me ASAP on everything going on with order.
Well that's all for now, gonna go wheeling at Bundy Hill this Sunday. Hope to see yall out there!

Haha can't wait to test them out. Then again probably wont be able to tell until I get the front ones. You can tell a difference in quality between the Bilstiens are RC for sure. With RC I can easily compress or expand them, the Bilstiens were a bit more difficult to do so.

Yeah. These are 5125s to be exact on the series, but I read good reviews on them as well. So I hope they are, the RCs are a little rough for my taste.Originally Posted by cleenrob

When we went to Newaygo a month ago and got some scratches down the side of the Jeep. So I took advantage of the few warm days we had and got out the buffer. Got most of the scratches out, there were some from before it was in my possession though that'll are a little more pronounced. This was my first time using a buffer too.
So shiny! Lol.
