Front end, steering and suspension inspection how to with a Mopar 4 link suspension! All of these components are critical to keep your vehicle driving properly and safely, if you do your own work it is important to know how inspect your vehicle for safety issues!
Link to prybar mentioned in video, yes its not cheap but its a good tool that has many more uses than just what we did in this video!

This is the best video I’ve seen on the front end diagnostics. Showing parts that actually have play make it soo much easier for comparison. Thank you so much.

Awesome info guys! I'll be doing this on my Lexus when installing coilovers for sure. Don't worry too much about the oil under the XJ. That means the 4.0 is working.

What the hell? Instant dislikes? People have no shame. I'm definitely not a jeep person, but I still enjoy your videos!

Totally Legit Gaming [TLEG] Some people are incredibly petty lol Thanks for the support tho man. I know I've been saying it for awhile but the Miata stuff is coming again soon! Had a bunch of small projects on the jeep tho to do

Hey, I'll be watching whatever you do. The Beetle was rad! I'm just hoping to get some work done on my Miata soon, so I can get more videos up and actually get the supercharged beauty on the road!

Thanks for breaking it down how to Identify properly and show ball joint diagnoses. Everyone say to use a prybar but not what to do with it

Super helpful.and well explained. I'll be running all those checks as well as your tune up advice this coming weekend. There is something undeniably good about owning an XJ and having to fix it all the time. Chur cuz.

I have a 99 NJ Jeep Wrangler with no oil mess just rust on everything. Every time I work on it I need a broom to clean up the chunks of rust that fall off. Thanks for the info.

At 6:00 I say steering rack, MY BAD I know that is a steering gearbox not a rack! Just mis-spoke!

@GearHeads. At 12:00 in the video, your helper is turning stearing wheel, what is making the clicking/clunking noise? is that normal??

When you get a new oem track bar does it come with new hardware?

@GearHeadsGarageChannel 3 жыл бұрын

Usually OEM dealer ones do not.

@ky0611 3 жыл бұрын

@@GearHeadsGarageChannel do you recommend just getting some from a hardware store or buying some of the kits online? Or does it matter?

Core 4x4 sells oem hardware for $10. With a flat nut

Are there more Miata videos in the works?

@GearHeadsGarageChannel 6 жыл бұрын

les6paul Yes! Life got busy and we took most of the winter off making videos, then as you can see we had a few other cars that needed addressing when we got back to working on things but the Miata prpjects will be back shortly!
