What happened to her Jeep?

Front hub bearing was really bad. She said she would drive home but I didn't want her stranded. We decided best bet was just haul it home so she can get it fixed in the morning.

I don't ride that much mud, but after the takeover these were a must. I thought the back would be like @joeymt33 but I guess @mudbusters didn't go with that design? Either way, simple install and I can assure you it's worth the money. I also got to put anti seize on the back wheel studs. Almost gave myself a hernia trying to get the studs off. It's bad when your snap on impact won't budge them... fronts were already done and they come off like butter. If you haven't put anti-seize on your studs your asking for trouble...

Looks like my rear tires are leaning in? No weight in the back right now. Cooler is empty. Don't see anything bent at a glance? Any ideas?

I swear I have a motormount or something loose cause the motor the slap the bottom of the floorboard, but I can't find it.

Put mudbusters on this week and now both front tires rubbed like crazy on the asphalt. Drilled a couple holes and a few zip ties and all is good again...

Oh yeah... I also realized that my bilge fan was mounted backwards. I know at the takeover it didn't do much to keep us cool. In fact the seat got hotter the usual. Misty even commented I hope you didn't spend much on this... quick cut of the zipties and flip the bracket and all good now. Probably makes a lot bigger difference now that it's blowing the heat out and not blowing it on the back of the front seat...

You might just now be noticing it. They all do that. You would rather them lean in than lean out.

I hate to laugh at someone's misfortune but that's pretty funny.
