Yeah, I was just trying to nudge it down low enough to get a puller in there. There's only about an 1/8th inch clearance, can't get the puller jaws in the gap.You need a real puller. That is not the correct tool for that.
Yea you need one of the big cone pullers. Those Dodge pitman's always seem to be on there crazy tight. I always got it impact tight the whack it with a sledge.
Wow, I did forget!!!Mike - Don't forget that I still have that lower exhaust gasket donut thing for you.
This new job has me driving more in a week than I used to drive in a month. Poor ol' Jeep needs some attention.Must be a thing. Tossed a heater hose yesterday too. Right as I got to the top of Cerro. Luckily it's downhill the whole way to town.
hey jeep dudes i need some help.
i quit my job and the owner stole all my tools. i have the skills and no tools.currently dragging in the court system. i has me a death wobble deal and looking for someone to do some fixing. my plan is the plate on the outside of the frame rail st the steering box mount. and new steering . i am fine leaving it under knuckle. prefer the drilled and tapped over weld in bungs, but either will be fine.my steering box is a bit loose but not leaking.
so thinking the plate or get the whole rail reinforcement for teh driver's side only for now.
and maybe Rough Stuff's steering. and maybe a RE 1650 track bar. and my front housing needs some torch and weld action on the track bar mount, it is eating up my track bar bushings. i had to mangle it to get the rusted stock one off.
so have two options-- i buy parts and you install? or you handle it all and i foot the bill for parts and labor. i has no job now so cant move forward till i get one and some income. small shop or experienced build it yourself guy preferred. let me know if anyone interested.
its ok. i talked to someone local and get teh everything is junk speech. i guess if i dont have a 100,000 dollar Wrangler he is not interested. fine by me. let me get employed and i ll be in touch and we can work it out. and not too worried on the bill for towingI'm about 3 weeks out right now, so I hope you're not in a hurry.
If someone local can do it for you, that's fine. A towing bill to Colorado Springs ain't gonna be cheap.
