Hopefully by then I'll have things right with my front end and can get over there. It's about a 1½ hour drive though. We'll find out next Saturday if things will be working alright.

What's up with the front end?


I think the top strut nut is loose. Got some major banging/thunking going on when I hit even small bumps. The A-arms are good and tight and I've checked all the other nuts and bolts so it's come down to the strut nut.

I have a garage reserved for Saturday to take it all apart and see if that's the problem.

It's been doing it since Iswitched the lift from Daystar to OME. I've checked everything I could and everything else is good. When I rock the rig from side to side you can hear noise coming from the upper part of the wheel well. The new A-arms are good and tight so I'm pretty sure it's the strut nut.

The garage space can be used on the condition that you provide the manual labor for moving the cj :P
