Changed the oil on a VW Jetta, reminding myself how much I LOVE jeeps.

I found a really f**king steep hill. And then I drove up it and down it like 80 times...it wasn't very long.

Mine: Power stering pump mod for improved fluid pressure.

My Son's XJ: Removed the most of the POS Bendix ABS system and got a dual diaphram booster and master cylinder installed. Still need to pull the ABS compressor and flare a few new brakelines.

Hey frank do we have a verdict?


As for me, I looked at the rear end. Contemplating designing some rear sway bar discos....

Won't know for certain until the I take it off road again...in the spring. So fat the steering is a tad easier.

Rear sway bar discos? No need. Yank the swaybar and toss it in the trash. Use the axle side brackets for BPE's for the rear upper shock mounts.

Rear swaybar is a component you simply don't need. It limits rear flex. Get rid of it. The axle side brackets for the sway bar links are just the right size to be used as Bar Pin Eliminators...thats the pin that goes through the rubber eye on the upper part of the rear shock.

It's my DD. I was under the impression that sway bars are a key component to not rolling over.
