I think the reason the bolt was a 14m and the nut is a 13m is incase you are working with one set of wrenches your not gonna have two 14s...though I don't know a single person who works on cars and what not that only owns one set of wrenches or sockets 😂😂

@UnrivaledPiercer7 місяців тому
I think the 13mm on one side and 14mm on another is so if you only have one wrench of each size that you don't get stuck in a situation of not being able to tighten it. That way you can grab both wrenches from your box and actually accomplish something, rather than be short a wrench if you don't have extras.

@mrdeathscrn7 місяців тому
I almost spit out my coffee seeing how the brake caliper hit the shocks! That is no bueno good sir, not one bit! That will make the caliper "reset" each time they hit (the cylinder will compress during long turns making so you will have to pump the brake to get back too "both pads touching" which is super duper dangerous!) So what i would do is adjust the top and bottom ball joint "main bolts" (the parts that are connected to the chassis, not the wheel assembly) so that the whole wheel assembly gets further out, adjust the steering rack pins so that the brake caliper does not interfere with the shocks, shim up the "driver POW right side" top ball joint arm so it does not rock back and forth (your atempt to tighten the balljoint was futile seeing it SHOULD be free moving but the top linkage arm is meant to hold the assembly from backwards/forwards movement, hence why they almost always are A shaped) TL;DR this is like buying a second hand LEGO set that the guy before you where drunk while assembling, all the pieces are there.. but not correctly put together
@michaelmoore79757 місяців тому
Could it be the knuckle assemblies are on the wrong sides? Because the design of all other wheeled vehicles have the calipers on the trailing side instead of the leading side. In other words, the calipers on the front wheels should be at the back of the assembly and the calipers on the rear wheels are towards the front. The locations are engineered to increase brake efficiency. If the brake calipers on the front are facing forward the torque of the braking causes "lift" on the front tire contact area, decreasing the friction needed to stop. The front wheel calipers facing the rear of the car causes "dive" under braking., increasing the friction. The rear wheel calipers facing the front also causes "dive". The differences are because of the relationship of the weight of the car in respect to the caliper location. In other words the front calipers have all the weight behind them. The rear calipers have all the weight in front of them. Also the momentum and direction with the kinetic energy respective to vehicle weight is a factor.
@jamesbeemer24777 місяців тому
Use a degree finder at the steering wheel to find center. Full Left and right you might half to do a little math to find true center. Once you figure out center of the rack do your left tie rod first then your right then put the steering wheel on straight. Some of the Chinese racks do have too many spacers on one side. Some of them have a center mark on the back if the rack from the shaft to the housing. Some times there just plane defected with a short adjustment from one side to another right at the tie rod because the threaded part is too short. I had a go cart do the same thing. Bought two defective racks and had to use something to find the degree left and right it wasn’t perfect but it worked better then guessing.

the issue you have is that it is a fixed drive to the rear axle, so no diff this make the jeep wants to push forward like some quad bike so for you to turn one rear wheel needs to slip in order for you to turn, as you are sitting on the left side it then make it difficult to turn left. if you were to sit in the center i think it would turn both ways the same .hope this helps

@Braxel_7 місяців тому
That thing looks cool but mechanically looks like a accident waiting to happen with out fixing. The play on the hub is because that upper "A-arm" is not even a A-arm but just a rod and offers no side to side support. The balljoint on the bottom should be on on top of the hole like the upper arm/ball joint is. That way its near impossible for it to pop out since the weight is pushed into it instead of pulled. With enough force even not worn out it can pop out and run over its own wheel. Steering max angle can maybe be fixed by moving the hub closer or further to clear or create more space for the brake caliper and the horribly placed shock. And probably center the steeringbox so left and right are the same by adjusting the steering tie rods.

@MattiAntsuK7 місяців тому
Most metric bolts and screws have a bigger nut than the head of the screw. Probably because some people dont wanna buy a full set. So they just buy the wrenches from sizes 4 to 32mm. And about the steering, the inside wheel will always turn more sharp than the outside. If you steer left and right while only looking at the drivers wheel, ofcourse its gonna look off. In my opinion the steering angle doesn't look that bad. Maybe 3-5° of.
