    Vibration at 60+ mph

    have to second Ventil8's experience. my rig started vibrating at about 63-66 mph. had the front wheel bearing/hubs replaced and it is so solid now, couldn't believe the difference. Cheers Scott

    Gibson Exhaust

    Hi all, just wanted to share with you that i just installed the Gibson exhaust 18708. figured that the only bolts i needed to take off were so rusted they didn't even look like bolts... nother story altogether... man this sounds awsome!:becky: at idle, hardly notice any diff from stock, but...

    clunk after lift

    UPDATE well, when washing the rig, i pushed down on the passenger sway bar near the wheel, and, yep, it was loose. replaced it and now we're ridin' tight! thanks for all the helpful replies, you guys ROCK! Scott

    clunk after lift

    Whoah! i live right off Big Rock Road! been here since about 2003. when were you out here? nope, we're in an unusually dry pattern (but you didn't hear that from me!), fingers crossed. i also replaced my swaybar bushings with the new suspension, and greased 'em up, so that isn't likely.

    clunk after lift

    Okay, good suggestions and great link Chaz, cuz that guy had almost exactly the same symptoms. i'll check out the stabilizer bar ends. ah the joys of a 100k+mile vehicle :)

    clunk after lift

    Chaz, thanks, your observation helped. it made me think.. so i contacted Wheeler's and asked if it'd 'settle down' as the front was set for about 1.5 inches of lift and he confirmed it would come down a bit. so i'm watching it and trying to weed out any outliers as possibilities. other than...

    clunk after lift

    i just drove mine a bit, and it seems like a loose plate or something, not directly related to the new suspsension... wierd! it can occur even on tiny bumps, seems that it gets excited and starts bumping, but almost like a rubbing bumping. since the suspension is brand new, i'll give it a week...

    clunk after lift

    ya know, when i measured the ctr of the wheel hub to the front fender after install, it was 3 inches. i figured it would settle down to the 1.5 we were shooting for. would that make a difference?

    clunk after lift

    thanks all. yes they were pre-assembled by Wheeler's Offroad. i checked the torque on the top bolts. it almost sounds like a loose piece rattling for a short bit, not too loud, just not quite right. thanks for the suggestions and i'll follow the advice given so far and report back if anything...

    clunk after lift

    hi all, pretty new to the forum and have a question: just installed Billy 5100s on Toytec coils. all went okay (except the rusted nuts and bolts!!) and now i have a new clunk over small bumps. it sounds like something is loose but i've checked and rechecked umpteen times everything that i'd...

    CV axle replacement

    Hi all, i followed Settytb's great writeup on replacing my cv axles and have a cautionary tale. i followed everything on that thread and he really nailed it. every warning happened and it went like clockwork... except the seal. i forgot that part of it and just replaced the axles. the driver...
