Yeah, any problem or procedure seems to be on YouTube. Got'a love Google.
I doubt you will get a false reading from adapters or extension flex with only 7 in-lbs, (or whatever the preload spec is).

So..... youtube is awesome and now I have a much better understanding of what I'm about to do and it's not nearly the mystery it once was.

I do have a question.  All of the beam style or dial style torque wrenches that will read low enough inlbs are 1/4" drive and all the sockets I have big enough for a pinion nut are 3/4" drive.  Is it safe to assume I just stack adapters to take the pinion preload reading?

Welcome back into the fold. What year is it?

What a deal! Looks nice.

Yea she needs some work but that was the point my wife wants to do all the work lol love living outta state everyone that has a rig that won’t smog and back reg sells cheap lol

So this happened this weekend! My wife has been asking to build an xj and I found this guy running driving with a clean title in Cali for 400 bucks lifted with 32s and some extra parts.

I've been down with flu bug last couple weeks... but I'll go if I can. Promised wifey we'd go to New Orleans some time in spring/summer for her. It's her bucket list. If her time/plans/dates do not intersect with Moab, then I'll likely go. So we'll have to play it by ear for me.  The end of April date 'might' make it more doable... but don't plan around me... juz say'n. 

I don't think the host cares. Last year Jason was on my site and no complaints. Maybe cause we were out all day, BLM never knew.

It's looking real good. Except for maybe your rear camber. It kind of reminds me of this:"



 

Hahahahahaha yeah it’s because they only have one lug nut on them lol
But things have gotten pretty hecktic in my household and things have taken some great changes but it has kinda sidelined the progress for a little still hoping to have it done this year or at least for a snow run before next years season.

Looked at the splitter I've got, it may work if I replace the bolts and nuts with some longer ones to get it started.  Yes, I've got a press.
