What have you done to your JK this week? 2.5M Views

Finally got round to cleaning up all the auxiliary wiring.. Years of adding just left it in a complicated mess. Hours of work but came up pretty well I reckon.


Even added some voltage gauges to monitor both batteries and USB ports.

Installed a 10amp outlet next to air on the rear bar.

Also easily fits on the boot floor, which is handy for transporting empty. May get a water carrying one for the rear floor.

Just incase you didn't know the black rotopax is storage which is what I have.

I'm confused I've adjusted my control arms enough that my pinion angle is where it supposed to be and to stop wandering, now the jeep drives fine but got a readout at bob Jane and the castor is 7.39?????

Is that right.....

Yep quite likely. To get correct pinion angle and remain in the factory caster angles requires no lift...

Once you start lifting you have to either sacrifice pinion angle or caster. Personally I would look at dropping the caster back to around 6° max, though it does depend on how much lift you have. The AEV geometry brackets work well in this case as they make the caster increase as your suspension droops to stop the pinion angle getting way out and damaging the joint.

If it drives fine and no driveline vibes your golden Factory 4.5-4.8 is far too little any where from 6-7.5 is perfectly acceptable when you start to get into the 8-10 range you start causing caster steer issues again.
Mine is set at around 7.2 and drives perfectly no wander or tram tracking no wobbles or shimmies

Yep. That's about where mine is.
Drives like a dream. (OK. A bit strong for a JK) No vibration, no nothing.
