What was done to your JK this week?
Had Death Wobble on Friday!
spent all weekend on the net and wrenching my suspension. Replaced broken Steering Stabilizer with a Rancho 500. Replaced factory inn drag link arm with a Moog aftermarket arm. Went to Lowes and bought some bolts to fix the POS factory track arm bolt that are way to small for the wholes. After reading countless hours on the net seems to be the main cause of Death Wobble for JKs! Torqued all suspension bolt to spec.
So a whole weekend shot and $100 dollars later. Lets see if the Death Wobble is gone.

Seems like the oil pan would still be damaged since it is basically supporting the skid plate?

Nope, the skid has tabs that sit flush against the block where the oil pan bolts to. It also has cut outs for the bolts so the pan can be removed with the skid attached. If it ever sat on a rock, the weight of the jeep would be against the block and off of the oil pan.

Tuesday, Santa's bounty gets installed. My mostly stock 2011 Rubi JKU gets procomp 2.5" lift and new 35x12.5x17 procomp extreme AT tires + a few little thjngamobobs that this n00b doesn't quite understand yet but I'm trying to learn.
Also ordered Smittybilt XRC front and rear bumper with tire carrier. Will put that on myself and get my hands dirty a bit.
