So went to DC this weekend, we get back and find out that the Jeep decided to start leaking heavily from the PS pump. Atleast they are only like $80-90 after core, so I'll get that and the high pressure/return hoses and replace em all.

Adjusted front bump stops so they don't rub an I have about 4in up travel.


Not sure if I'm going to keep them or sell them to my buddy that needs tires. We got them because of the awesome price we got them for an they actually have 75% tread left...guy told me 60% but they have alot more thread then he told me. I like them and we went fourwheeling saturday night and they did great, ride great on the road......but I already broke the Jeep with them. I bent my tierod high centered on a hill. Buddy winched me off and during the process my wheels toe in and turned my tierod into a u-shape. Had to pull it off and use the winch to straighten back out to get home. I'm still debating on the way I was stuck if this would have happened with smaller tires. I'm leaning towards yes it would have happened with smaller tires.

My steering is stock an I know I need to upgrade it. I put another stock tie rod on but I know it'll happen again so I need to upgrade steering. I'm getting death wobble now also.....I may go back down to a 35x12.50 since this is my DD. I know my dana44 in the rear will old these tires no problem. My dana turd30 in the front is my concern. It's open right now so that takes less stress off everything. I don't really feel like spending a lot of money in a 30 when I have a dana 60 and dana 70 in the garage that need parts so I can throw under the Jeep.

So I'm going to keep the diesel. I figure new hubs. And some little things and I'll be golden.

Here in a few I think I'll be looking for a truck....Jeep is paid for. Going to pay off a few other things and look to take the Jeep off the DD status and buy a car trailer to haul her around. Or so the plans are.

I hear ya, that's what i'm doing now. I'm looking for a Decent Truck to tow with and possibly sell/ trade the little Samurai for a trailer. One way or the other it'll eventually work itself out.

Btw, those tires look pretty good on the Jeep man. Sucks that you got into your steering, but at least it was able to be fixed. So what's the plan on a upgrade, or you gonna wait till the tons are under it?
