Justin, the tires probably develop some flat spots as they sit and it exacerbates any little looseness or glitches in the front end. Driving every day keeps the tires from getting the flat areas as much. It looks like you just need to drive it every day.

 

/\ /\ /\ What Del Said /\ /\ /\ you need to warm up the tires.

 

Yup drive it once in a while! that and if it is like the older stuff I know any thing getting a bit loose and a flat spot DW is on!

 

I suppose that makes sense. I need to drive the JK, it hasn't been on the road for a couple of months.

 

I can completely agree with the flat spots theory since it was fairly cold when it happened, it hadn't been driven in a while, and I could actually feel it "hopping" like driving over bumps when I was driving it down the street.

Guess I'll just follow everyone's advice and drive it everyday!

 

I ordered the Cladding that ties my front fenders to my rear fenders for the JK, now I am trying to decide on which rock rails I want to order. I have my eyes on a few different brands that are made from heavy metal, some are weld on, some are bolt on, but I think I like the bolt on option, in case I need to do some kind of maintenance to the body, or pull the body off at a later time.

 

Installed a Craven Speed stubby antenna today wish I would have asked Santa for the bullet but oh well! Hope to try out the reception today.

 

Replaced dads intake on the '62-- big ol cast iron thing. Thanks for the help Clint, Garret, and Jack!

 

I unpacked my armor parts last night, brought them in the house and looked them over. They were cold!

 

Worked on this bad boy with Clint and Garret- finished her up and Drove it 20ish miles home-- Thanks again Jack, Clint and Garrett!!!

 

Your welcome Chad had fun

 

Great Job Guys!!


I didn't do anything constructive over the weekend for the vehicles, other than I bought a heater, wire, and thermostat for the garage. I hope a 5000W 240V ceiling heater will be enough to heat the garage. Now I just got to install it. Probably around mid spring.. : (

 

I haven't got my cladding on yet, and I hope to get started on it this weekend. I need to start the JK anyway, its been sitting without starting since some time in Oct or Nov.


I still need to fix the exhaust, and narrow down the death wobble on it. Probably now, death wobble would be contributed by the flat spots on the tires, but I need to eliminate the other issues too.


I ordered rock sliders yesterday and am anxious to get them mounted. I spent quite a bit more on them, but spent a lot of time researching them, trying to find strong ones that worked best for me.

 

I did the great vehilce re arrange this morning-- Started 4 vehicles to get to the one in the front of the driveway-- and of course started the wifes car. Moved then all around-- and will have to move them again when i load dads truck on the trailr and Drive the second work truck tomorrow.

 

My driveway is getting full also, perhaps I should bring some vehicles down to store at your house?
