Was wondering how often you guys recheck torque of suspension/steering components. I recheck my torque after every run with my long travel tacoma so was wondering what the normal interval was like for the wrangler?

Thanks

About 50-100 miles after I have had it disassembled for any reason. And also after every wheeling trip.

i check the wheels every few months as for the rest i have marked so i just check the marks and see if they have moved any. if so retorque if not i leave them alone.

On a last truck, I had a shock mount come completely undone, so I'd say...not enough, in that case.

The scary part was that I really didn't notice it with how bad the springs were.

I like to retorque when I do my oil change. While the oil is draining that is the perfect time.

Not damn often enough apparently by experience.....luckily i'm fairly in tune with my jeep and at the slightest hint of anything everything stops till I've found the culprit. I think every oil change like Canvas said is really a good rule of thumb....and like PyschoCupcake said, if things have been disassembled, in 50-100 miles of things being put back together.

Sounds like I will start re torquing at every oil change with this thing.

Same here. While the oil is draining I check torque front to rear.

Agreed, and rotate tires.

Hmm... well color me stupid, I didn't know you had to EVER retorque. Figured once and done. Lol ok I'll be in the garage for the next 30 minutes...
