I'm glad I listened to your video I have a 2021 JL sport I am currently running 33s on it and I want to go to 35 some people tell me I don't have to re-gear and some people tell me I do. What's your professional opinion on that?
@TheOutlawOffroad 10 күн бұрын
35's are the weird spot where you *Can* Get away with not re-gearing depending on what factory ratio, and which engine you have. If you have 3.45's even a 35" tire will start to stay in 7th gear instead of 8th. drive it with 35s and see how it feels. If you think you may go to 37s one day, re-gear!

@TheOutlawOffroad Ай бұрын
first you need to figure out why there are offset balljoints, as that is not normal or common. Sometimes these are installed as a "quick fix" to a bent axle. We typically install dynatrac ball joints which last a long time

@TheOutlawOffroad Ай бұрын
the easiest way to is to lift the rear tires off the ground and make a mark on the drive shaft and tires. Spin the tires and watch the drive shaft and count rotations. For every 1 full rotation of the tire, you will get multiple rotations on the drive shaft. in between 3.5-4 rotations = 3.73, just barely over 4 rotations = 4.10, 4.5 rotations = 4.56, between 4.5-5 rotations = 4.88, just barely over 5 rotations = 5.13, and almost 5.5 rotations = 5.38. Hope that helps!

@boondoggler9677 2 ай бұрын
Very informational, Thx! I do have a question on your statement that the upper rear control arm (adjustable) is the 2nd most important ones to replace. Can you expand on that a bit since it would seem logical that the lower rear is the one that pushes the axle backwards to both re-center it in the wheel well and restore wheelbase. Thx!
@TheOutlawOffroad Ай бұрын
in most cases, it is more important to dial in the pinion angle (uppers) than locate the axle forward or aft. Generally, and especially with newer Jeeps, we're not lifting them 6"+ to fit a larger tire so the smaller lift height has less effect on axle positioning.

You provided no hard evidence other than you saying they dont do anything. Seems like they work well for many people. So even if all they do is help reduce wear and extend the life of all your steering joints, why are they bad? Seems like your evidence is pretty subjective. Even if they just help dampen steering, how is that bad? You really didn't make much of a case against them except "steering stabilizers are a waste of money cause i said they dont do anything but dampen steering, so dont buy them and waste money." Was really hoping this would be an informative video with some sort of hard results or scientific test. Turns out it's more of an opinion peice.

"When aired down." Most important phrase in this entire video. If you aren't a guy who is so hard-core offroad that you bring along all the tools required to air down when you get to whatever road or trail that requires that sort of alteration to your rig, then MORE tire sidewall really doesn't make that much difference. Don't believe me? Look up tire tests regarding a 20" wheel versus a 17" wheel, but BOTH with a 33" tire, and BOTH with 35 psi (most common pressure for everyday use). You will see that if you leave the 35 psi, the tire deflection over obstacles is so similar between the two tire sidewalls that there isn't a clear reason to go 17" versus 20". In fact, that extra inch and a half really makes zero difference offroad UNLESS you air down. I personally don't know anyone that takes the time to air down if they are just headed to a remote lake or hunting spot off the highway. Bottom line; if you have a true hard-core offroad rig like a rock crawler Jeep that you air down for the day, more sidewall makes sense, so you can utilize that extra inch of rubber. But, if you are the other 90% who have a daily driver that sees occasional off-highway use and don't want to mess with the hassles of running 9 psi only to have to put 35 back in for the ride home, the practical difference is so minimal that esthetics should be more important. In which case 20's wins every time imo.

Thanks for the great question! For normal use on a 35" tires, and not off-roading you really don't "Need" to upgrade the components, just replace worn out components. What we see most of the time though is that the oem replacements are very close in price to upgraded versions so it makes sense for most people to get the much better quality part!

Maybe you can help me, Im finding alot of misinformation on the interwebs. I recently got a sweet deal on a 2012 Jk sahara with a 3.6 , 6 speed manual on 35s. I believe it has 3.73s in it but not positive. It never sees 6th gear. The guy I got it from threw in a set of Yukon 5.13s front and rear with install kits on the deal but they were never installed. My question is are 5.13s going to be a little much? the jeep will see about 60% Montana highway and 40% steep mountains. Itll see some ATV trailer towing but not much weight. It is also highly doubtful of going to a bigger tire. Ive run many a jeep with 4.56 and 4.88s with 35-38 inch tires but theyve always been trailer queens or beaters that never saw the highway. This one is different especially with a 6 speed. You seem to have the info I need before I dump a ton of money into putting the wrong gears in and end up divorced because of it. lol

Hey Preacher, if you have a dual steering stabilizer setup and one goes bad, but not the other, you will absolutely have some terrible driving characteristics!! Basically you have one steering stabilizer pushing one direction, and nothing to counter it, which would then need driver input. Correct steering geometry eliminates the need for dual stabilizers all together

If someone wanted to run 40" tall tires would 4.90 gears be okay? Ouverson offers 4.90 gears for the Rockwell 2.5 ton axles. (I do not know if anyone else offers other gear ratios for Rockwell axles). While 4.90 gears might still not be enough for 40's but it is still much better than the factory 6.72 gears. Especially if the vehicle is going to see very much highway or daily driving use. Thanks in advance for any and all advice, opinions, or answers. Regards

i've heard of at least 1 company that has DOT approved beadlock wheels Hutchinson I believe makes a beadlock wheel that can be driven "legally" on roads. they might be others. I've always wondered can you just run a beadlock wheel w/o the tire in that beadlock position. run it normally. I'm sure it'd be a pain switching tires back and forth in that format. i've never had beadlocks so just a noob in that sense.
@TheOutlawOffroad 5 ай бұрын
I mean... we daily drive beadlocks on the highway all the time 😉 We have never been harassed about it, as there are so many wheels that look like beadlocks. The law came from a old school way of making beadlocks where a wheel was cut, then bolted together making it kinda unsafe. Now the wheels are cast and machined as one piece with the beadlock ring being bolted on top. Much stronger. We have no reservations on running our setups on road
