True story ..... Best recovery point I've ever seen on trail by some noobies .... They wrapped a chain around the front axle passenger side near the knuckles and yanked ..... Oh oops ur front axle just got ripped out , ur bad ...... Some idiot thinkin his wrangler is the shiznit , had to be bairly 18 and daddy bought his jeep for him or a trust fund baby , was hilarious

lmao I've been guilty of using the axle as recovery point.. I've also used the rear bumper back when I was stock
You can rebuild your brake shoes with clay when they get low. Tried it in mine and my stopping distance at 60mph decreased by 500ft. Can also stuff it the screw holes if you lose one and will hold up to 5000lbs, just gotta let it dry overnight.
Can also use it to seal the pesky rear main seal, did to mine 14 years ago and still holding strong. Just be sure to get the BLUE clay, otherwise the properties of the artificial coloring will eat through your other seals. I recommend replacing them all with it.
You can also weld a bung on your exhaust tip and drill a few pin size holes in it to up your compression to 18:1. Gotta put in 50lb injectors and a chrome gas cap to run it tho.. Otherwise you'll have axle wrap in the front, rear will be fine leafed axles don't get axle wrap.
Ran seafoam through my windshield washer bottle today, can defintely feel a noticeable power gain.

Do not drive that anywhere except back into the driveway to fix that JUNK! Even if the geometry is all wrong you need a 3rd or 4th link and a panhard/track bar! Oh and yes, that muffler IS leaking.
