I can't find this horrendous popping noise under the Jeep whenever I turn 90º. It sometimes feels like it's under my feet, sometimes it's in the rear end.

I have tightened down every darn thing I can think of.

Tie rod ends? Have you greased everything?

You've actually put a socket and impact wrench or long handled bar on the track bar mount to frame bolts?

Can you still see the blinkers fine when your headlights are on, like at night? I really like this idea, but with just my stock lights people can't tell when I'm turning when they're at an intersectionin front of me. It's kind of annoying lol

Sweet let me know man. And what bulb/light did you use for the blinkers? Did you just move the Amber bulb into the grill? Or is it a little more complicated than that? Lol
