    Found a good deal on some new rollers for the jeep. It'll hold down the driveway nicely.

    17 inch raceline beadlocks and 39.5x13x17 iroks.

    Also mounted a new set of 14inch bilstein 5125 for the front.

    Cracked the can on the PS pump in Clayton (which was the reason for the whining pump/vomiting fluid). Cracked at the upper fitting. PSC rebuilt the pump and replaced the can and are shipping it back to me.

    Also sheared another d-44 high steer arm stud off. . . . same side/same stud as before. Pulled the knuckle off and worked the broken stud out. Damn things keep loosening up. Went ahead and replaced the balljoints and spindle bearings since I was in there. Replaced the high steer studs, cones and nuts and red-Loctite them into place.

    I suspect it is so you can bottom out the stud threads on the knuckle to tighten it down.

    You are not supposed to bottom the studs out. Only install the studs into the top of the knuckle by hand. Leave a 16th of slack or so from tight. They are supposed to be in tension, but not torqued into the knuckle. The non-threaded portion is so that the high steer arm and stud have a tighter fit than if it were just threaded all the way.

    maybe i'm missing something here, but it appears that all of the non-threaded portion of the stud will be concealed by the knuckle. If your reasoning was correct, shouldn't the non-threaded portion be more in the center of the stud?

    That smooth part is the middle of the stud. The other treaded portion is broke off

    Here is an earlier pic that shows a comparison.

    I rearranged the back of the jeep. Artec quart crate, swag offroad action packer mount. I need to find a cooler to mount next to the quart crate. Everything is now easy to access and secured in case of a roll over.
