All those who wheel their KKs off-road, apparently you should periodically check your rear upper bump stops. While rotating my MT/Rs and generally checking over my KK before staring a fair amount of wheeling over the next 1.5 months, I found that my rear upper bump stops were damaged and partially missing:

I'm speculating they've been chewed on by the bolt head holding the puck-style JBA lower bump stop spacer. They may also have been damaged when while wheeling last year when I bent the upper linkage bar (off) the rear track bar essentially disabling the rear track bar. :dizzy: Regardless, I know what I'll be addressing this week before doing some wheelin' next Saturday with kskj.

Heads up to check out your KKs before hitting the trails. :JEEPIN:

Mine aren't chewed up but I've definitely dislodged one of those before while wheeling
