    Synthetic diff lube

    synthetic is great for a street car, cause you'll not have to change it for a very long time... but in your jeep, as i said before,, you will wanna be checking it and changing it much more often, so why waste the money.

    Synthetic diff lube

    its fine to use it, but why? if you drive off road much and go through deep water and mud alot, its a good thing to check and change your diff oil regularly. no sense spending the extra money if your gonna be changing it once a year or more....

    Front Sway Bar bolts...

    they are pressed in. the hole and the last 1/4 inch of the bolt below the head are splined. .... yucca man,,, i think the reason they put the the torx head on is so if the spines strip out , you can use the torx wrench to hold the bolt while you remove the nut with a wrench..... if you have a...

    no rear shocks

    please dont cut holes in your floor....the stock bolts you broke are 5/16 inch. Get a tap, either 3/8 inch or 10 millimeter. drill the correct size hole right through the middle of the broke off bolt, [ drill it good and straight ] and tap it out. install new shocks with the new correct size...
