  1. If you're running stock UCA's it will wear the ball joints a little faster. I'd recommend ordering the Superlift UCA's, as the correct the upper ball joint angle. Normally the rear sits a little higher than the front, so when you load up the back or hook onto a trailer, you're not looking up at the sky. Helps improve steering when loaded, and keeps your headlights on the road. As far as the bumpstops, just make sure you are not riding on them all the time. Ride quality goes to s#it.

  2. I've had pretty good luck in my area. Uncommon parts usually have to be ordered, but between Oriellys and NAPA, I can usually get what I need that day. I did learn to figure out which is Oriellys hub store for the area, and they seem to usually have it.

  3. I had auto hubs on my wd21 and would not recommend them. I swapped to manual hubs because there was a few times I got stuck and couldn't engage my 4 wheel drive. The wheels have to move for the autos to lock in. Sometimes rocking it will do the trick, but most times you're SOL. I'd do the manual hubs if it were me.

  4. Discovered that a scrap of copper tubing is not an adequate replacement for the tire carrier pin.

    That was fun to get out.

     

    Also, wired my trailer lights back up tried to figure out why they're still dim as hell. And it's not the ground, that was the first, second, third, and fifth thing I checked. Best guess at this point is voltage drop across the converter box.

    The converters are known to go out. I've replaced mine once already when one trailer light started acting funny. I have also seen them cause dim trailer lights. For the $20 bucks, wouldn't hurt to try.
