Thank you Sir, I think I was able to send him a message. I use a Kendal devise and it dosent have the word "search" but it has a picture of a magnifying glass that I finally figured out it means search. I should know by now I should use my pc when using this forum. Your help has been very valuable, I appreciate that very much. I see now you were a part of that conversation and I was hoping someone would remember. One day I may learn how to use this site better.

While doing a little Christmas shopping I snuck in ordering a steering stabilizer kit for the Tahoe and a new radiator for the WJ. So I am now set to get something I actually want for Christmas!
One step closer to the WJ cooling mod..... Non-hydro fan power steering pump and high pressure line next on the list.

Happy to know you got what you want, very unusual. Hooray, three cheers. I'm all for that.

Bought a pair of Yakima Heavy Duty ratchet straps there on sale for Black Friday. Will use them to tie down storage boxes on top of my roof rack. I could have bought a cheaper pair at Walmart, but wanted to try these out since everything else I have is made by Yakima.

A new set of shoes in the 315x75x16 size khumo MT not yet fitted waiting for a set of steel rims to fit them on

Decided to upgrade some front end components and did the Yeti Steer Smarts tie rod, drag link with attentuator, and their front track bar. Also lifted the Jeep up about another inch front and rear and put on some new shoes with the fifteen52 Turbomac HD Classic's and some 38" Milestar Pat's. These Milestars are so cheap through Walmart and Amazon that they were impossible to pass up! And, I absolutely love the look of the fifteen52 wheels! The Yeti stuff is TOP NOTCH! Very nice quality! Absolutely felt a front end difference after the Yeti stuff went on. I did the wheels and tires afterwards so I could see what sort of difference it made.

Very sharp looking rig. The factory should have put that size tire on them from the beginning. The proportions are great. I agree the wheels are perfect and your tire choice was very good.

Thanks @Lanlubber ! Totally appreciate the feedback! I was definitely curious as to how the 38's would end up looking compared to the 35's. It definitely needed the additional 2" spacer in the rear and the extra 1" spacer in the front with the Teraflex Outback springs. It just didn't look right before those were added. Totally happy with it now.

Now go put it to the test.

Yes! If only work would stop getting in the way! I normally get out almost every weekend, but not recently, unfortunately.

Is this it? ↓

Yes,thank you

Craigslist score, 5 Wrangler steelies for the WJ. The offset is 1/2 inch less, for an inch wider track and a little more breathing room for the rear shocks. Look like dealer take offs, for 10 bucks a rim.

Unusual for me, but in a rare display of patience it worked out! And the TPMS sensors are not needed and for sale...

Yes I remember, Thank you, that was the right guy. He has a really neat old rig with a really smart solar set up that I still want to go see personally.
Too much to do until after Christmas.
