Well I won't have a CB. I tried every radio supply store in portland that I could find. And apparently no one sells the adapter that threads onto the bottom of my antenna and plugs into the coax.

I will try to head up tonight, however I have a dinner that I have to attend, so I wouldn't get into camp until probably 10. If someone could snag me a spot it would be much appreciated. How can we get in contact? My phone number is 503-318-9542, I have verizon and if I recall, I do get service...

I'll be heading out early Saturday morning. Bronzewyrm would you mind linking up with me on sat? I'm from the area, but have been stationed all over the world for the last 9 years and would appreciate someone experienced showing me around the trails.

They were on there, its the only reason it didn't come off further. However, when torqued properly, that thing does not sit tight up against the nut due to the location of the hole where the cotter pin goes through.

Problem solved amigos, it was the nut that retains the axle. I torqued it to about 100ft lbs, and it was supposed to be 175. In the half mile journey to the university of Portland (go penguins) it managed to vibrate loose. I tightened it up, checked for bending, and everything is good to go...

I torqued in proper order, and I get it, gotta check everything. I checked the PSI earlier today and it was @ 35. However I did not check the drivers side. I'll do that first thing in the morning. And I checked that tube a few times, sure doesn't appear bent... Having such a shitty day already...

Already did that, no movement at the ball joints. I'm wondering if maybe the knuckle is bent. Just confused as to why it was straight before replacing the hub...

I have a 4 inch OME kit with arms, that's not it.

Lift kit was installed earlier this year, did not have this issue until I replaced the hub assembly. I am wondering if by some chance the hub assembly is directional?

I was doing an inspection before replacing brake pads when I noticed the hub was bad. I replaced it with a new Timken unit, after reassembling everything the unit was solid when off the ground. No evidence of wear on the balljoints... Any other ideas?

I replaced the passenger side hub assembly since it was toast, just parked the rig at school and noticed the passenger side tire seems to tilt inwards at the top. Anyone know why its doing this, and how to fix it?

CH4 works for me. I typically stick to CH5 since thats what the truckers are on, but that is only helpful when I am hunting.

Looks like I will be the first one up there, let me install my CB tomorrow, then we shall talk channels.

Gotcha, thanks for the info.

I found this ZJ tie rod setup for $99. Is there any reason its way cheaper than the other stuff I have seen? Or will this be a quality upgrade for my XJ...
