    Clunk after lift.

    Sometimes when I come to a stop or tap the brakes while backing up, I get this clunk sound coming from the driver side front axel. I have a sneaky suspicion that it's the new Rubi HD track bar I put on there. My reason being that when it was installed, it had no room for movement againts the...

    Good ring and pinion manufacturer.

    Anyone know of good gear manufacturers? I was planning on buying some Yukon 4.11's for my 33's (5spd) but can't find them anywhere. Are there any other options for high quality 4.11/4.10's? Don't really want to go up to 4.56's with a 5spd and 33's since I do a lot of the highway thing.

    RE tie rod.

    Anyone have an opinion on the Rubicon Express tie rod? I'm going to be getting a 4.5"er from them and was thinking about upgrading the tie rod while i'm at it since the stock one seems so weak. Can't find any ZJ ones at the J-yard so figured i'd just splurge on a new one.

    Drop Pitman Arm.

    You guys think I'll need a drop pitman arm for the RE 4.5" flex lift or will my stock one be fine? I'll be getting the HD track bar and bracket if that makes a difference. Thanks!

    track Bar Brace

    I'm going to be throwing on an RE 4.5 lift in a couple weeks and was wondering if you guys recommend putting on the RE track bar bracket brace? I'm going to upgrade to the HD track bar so it seems like the brace would be a good stiffener upgrade to do as well? I've read a bit from posts online...
