They do that sometimes! Thanks for watching 🍻

@@ATEMOFFROAD So as l said add the correct part numbers to your vide, then mistakes at the parts shop less likely

On rear Dana 35s never seen this on the 30

Nice , and thank you

Very cool , I’m guessing all went well. Thanks for watching 🍻

@@ATEMOFFROAD Yes sir. It did and the sound is gone and i’m back to happily driving the TJ again. And I’m glad I learned the job. MVP was my 4 banger Ford Ranger backup that got me from point a to b during the Jeep’s downtime haha

Thanks for watching, I appreciate it !

Thank you 🍻

💥 nice 👍🏼 thanks for watching!

Thank you 🍻

Nice ! Is that the crossover steer kit your talking about? with heim joints? Thanks for watching

@@ATEMOFFROAD no it bolts on exactly the same way it currently does. It is just bigger in diameter and uses the beefier tie rod ends as well.

@@Yipping_Yeti nice , anything beefier I like 👍🏼

What year Cherokee do you get the parts from? I have a TJ and don’t want to spend $600 on the Currie upgrade lol Edit: found an article online with the Amazon link to what I need. Definitely ordering that now.

12pt socket, heat the housing holes not the bolts with map gas or propane’s, use breaker bar to release bolt! You Might even be able to do that by turning the wheel all the way over and access them from the back by the brake caliper to loosen them up before you Jack up and pull off the wheels. Good luck buddy thanks for watching 🍻

It’s a fun little project, thanks for watching buddy 🍻

Thanks about a day I take my time to film too.

Thanks for watching I appreciate it 🍻

Nope , the axles just snap in and out, seals still work no leaks

@@ATEMOFFROAD thank you!!!

Thanks for watching

Thank you so much for letting me know this , as sometimes Amazon affiliates make changes on there end . I’ve updated the spicer front axle ujoints , as well as add hubs for 2000-06 year TJ. Should be all set! Thanks for watching I appreciate it

I think so not particularly sure on the front setups as there can be a few different variations, like hub locks etc! For the rear is a no , as you will need to un bolt the flange on the end to slide out the axle assembly. Thanks for watching 🍻

Yes no tapping , they are standard 5/16-18 grade 8 bolts I think they are 3/4” long 🍻

@@ATEMOFFROAD Sweet. Jeep looks great, I’m hoping to restore my axles in a similar fashion.

Yes you need all the bearings

@@ATEMOFFROAD oh I kinda figured that. My other inner axle I couldn’t get the u joint cape to fully seat so I had to order a replacement. I think the ears might have gotten bent in a millimeter during removal of old one. Hopefully a new one does the trick. Thx for reply. Looks like I have to press out the old one looking for where it’s missing from

Hubs are holding up good! I have taken the wheels of since a few time and checked them , still good! Thanks for watching 🍻

Are these hubs still holding up 2years later

American racing AR62s

Either Manuel or e locker soon 👍🏼

Gotta pay to play 😂😂 actually the jeep is at 150,000 miles , no real issues on the axel, I can’t complain there , I just replaced these components as preventative maintenance! Im getting the axel ready for a lift too so I’ll be doing that real soon! Thanks for watching! Cheers

When one buys a Jeep, one must anticipate that one will need to learn to work on it. It saves the money instead of going to mechanics down the line.

Thanks for the Super buddy I appreciate it. 🍻
