No, I haven't figured out the cause. Came out easy, put the Torque locker in and that last 1/4" just doesn't want to go. I've got some bare OEM 1550 joint shafts I need to try.

Made some progress patching up the tub where I had cut to clear tires and upper links. I'm going to paint the roll cage this week.

So I'm using a Torque locker in the front D60. My axles/unit bearings slide in to within about 1/4"- 3/8" of the unit bearing seating then get tight not wanting to easily slide further. Do you guys think it could be spline related at that point?

I've been slowly working on piecing together the brake system. The parking brake works, however if I don't slightly preload the calipers with the brake pedal before pushing the park brake, the park brake pedal goes all the way to floor before really building pressure. Maybe air in the line...

I've begun assembling parts for my brakes. Trying to create a decent park brake has had me stumped for a while. A line lock seemed the easiest route for a short term parking scenario, but I want a brake that I can also control drag on the rear tires if desired. A locking drift hand brake was my...

Possibly a fuel tank. I'm currently using the stock YJ tank but would like to explore the possibility of a fuel cell custom built to fit inside frame rails and maybe raise the cargo floor a few inches.

It's been VERY slow going. I continue to work on my hydro assist steering, which is pretty much done.

It was still open after the snow storm. UJC had their club run there Oct 13th.

Provided it aligned with my work schedule I would be very interested in joining a group.

How can I find out more about these trails?

I haven't accomplished much in the last few weeks, my daughter had a deer permit so I took a break and spent some time with her. I have made a small amount of progress on my steering. On a bit of a side note, I have access to aluminum, however I don't have the means to weld it. Is there...

I found another LJ hardtop this week. It's also damaged from being flopped on its side, but both side glass pieces are good. Real nice guy, gave me a screaming deal.

Nice, you should consider making up 5 of them and put them on EBay. Be a huge advantage if you could also run the aftermarket baffle/traps with them. I'm sure trying to keep it low yet maintain enough uptravel it can be streetable and hopefully even fun at speed. I started out trying to...

Ordered the Improved Racing oil pan baffle today. Now I need to source a F-Body oil pan. Anyone have one lying around?

Right now would be an excellent time to run it. It's dry, making it much less difficult than a lot of video portray it when wet. It's also had two large groups that I'm aware of pass through in the last 2 months massaging its rough spots. The last trip had a TJ (I believe on 33's) that made most...

I'm not exactly certain where the locked gate was located on the exit route. I have been twice this year and exited out the canyon without trouble. The only interaction on the first run was someone checking on us as we were loading/leaving making sure we were not on the private property (we had...

My point about the gates being no need for a local (other than more fun on the trail). Anyone can run it and exit out the canyon through the unlocked gate.

The county has placed big livestock gates where you enter the private land and again where you exit the private land coming down the canyon road. Neither gate is locked, just a sign that says the land is private, stay on the road and close the gate. Parking inside the livestock gate on private...

Is it worth the purchase price, I think they are $200ish with coupon. I've also considered building one from scrap steel I have, but realistically, it will take me a week to fab something up.

Anyone have experience with the Harbor Freight 36" sheet metal brake? I'm thinking of picking on up to fab the inner wheel wells.
