Gonna go to recyclers for sway bar I threw out for $50 to make it better through turns as she wallows without... I had always heard it gibes you more flex, but I really am slowing to turn, and womder about panic lane change on freeway, so figure it may be best with it on...

Running 32s vs 27s stock and wanna make sure breaks are solid, and overall more street/ trail worthy

 

[Mackadocious916]

Going to be interesting to see handling difference as the sway and strut are removed now

Put it on a quick disconnect system.

 

[Mackadocious916]

I looked up quick disconnects for jeeps but different for ifs set up than solid axle so dont know if there is a set up for it or not....plus I uave to move endlinks due to lift per install instructions, so likley will have to revisit it.

But I got the front brakes in... While toyota serviced my prius...

Then I was going to back her in for drum service, but had hard lock up...think it was how I trimmed caliper on other side, and was wondering why I wouldnt have to do this side, but after this, I may, because I think wheel spoke is hitting the caliper and not allowing rotation... We will see but I got work tommorrow, and its late so im calling it...

 

[Honky Kong jr]

Just make your own quick disconnect

 

[Mackadocious916]

So this is what made the loud grinding sound/ lock up...

Now just gotta do gears and put sway/strut back on.

 

[Mackadocious916]

Not gears, rears meaning drums

 

[Mackadocious916]

Went out and jacked up the rear, put jackstands under, and removed wheels...had to go to O'Reilly to get two 8mm x 1.25 bolts to back out the rotor. Since I was one of the first 25, I got a hat for black friday buying 1.70 bolts...
