25mm pin upgrade
« on: Nov 22, 2013, 07:42:59 AM »
Finally decided to tear into my front and and do a few upgrades.  Starting with the Marlin 25mm pin kit.  I never realized how beefy these were compared to stock.  This along with arp knuckle studs should take care of my steering worries.

Sounds like fun. I got a set of those 25mm steering pin upgrades. Should be on the list this winter.

Lol.  No front knuckles=no steering.  I put the chain on before I started last night.  Wasn't sure how motivated I would be to work on it after I pulled it out of the garage.  The chain on the steering wheel is my anti theft, kinda pointless right now though.

I know, just figured anything to deter or slow things down would help.

Finished the install Friday.  Took it out and tested it at rubicon this last weekend.  Everything works great!  I'll post some pics up of it out back together.  Great product.  Nice to have one less worry.
