Firestone service centers. A little over $100 for a lifetime alignment. $129 when I got mine from Firestone, but stopped been any use when I got 37's. I understand some Firestone centers can do 37's, and I'm pretty sure other tire stores offer similar lifetime alignments. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I pd like $110 for mine. Used it 4 or 5 times so far...there's only one firestone across town...but definately handy...

I've been crawling around under my truck (trying to keep my hands out of any unsuspecting slots) and I am really thinking that Cognito is on to something.

In that picture of CP on Metal Masher where the front tires are trying to meet up with each other in front of the truck, there is obviously something giving. We know it can't be just because the front end was drooping some because we do it all of the time without that kind of toe-in. So, assuming it was the centerlink because the centerlink is a tube of springy steel, it would have been bent upwards and toward the rear of the vehicle. This also creates rotation in the centerlink. The Cognitos braces against this rotation. While it preserves the pitman and idler arms, I am betting that it also reduces the amount of flexion experienced by the centerlink in situations such as the pictures shows.

I am thinking that the Fabtech tie-rods along with the Cognito kit is the best option for stabilizing the steering on our trucks and will reduce the chances of breaking.

Secondly and this is much more far-fetched a thought, I am wondering if this could possibly contribute to the failure of the CVs. A lot of stress is created on driveline equipment when the CVs cause the driveline to represent a U-shape (which would be the case if both front tires are pointing inward). If power is transferred to both tires and the tires are trying to point at each other, it seems that this creates a lot of bind on the front driveline.

Interesting P, still thinking about it and picturing it(http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif) but very interesting. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

[h2co-pilot]

Alec- was that on Hell's prior to Escalator?

(**fingerscrossedpleasesayIdidn'tdoit** http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif)

Those tires will not move on any rock. I believe that was the problem in Tellico when I pinned it slightly up on a bolder around a tight turn prior to a ledge (resulting in the bent knuckle/tie-rod end) and the slickrock in Moab. Not only do the knobs stick to wherever they are originally placed but they are wider than the body of the truck. So if I am squeezing through and obstacle they will toe in and but the body stays stationary, i.e.- that pic from Metal Masher.

Could we have aired down too much? Are the tires too knobby? Are they too wide? Any thoughts?

Ken and I have talked about trying some Super Swampers.

Roger that guys.

Don't forget that there is more suspension travel on a lifted H2, so you will get more extremes. Also, those big tires grip incredibly well, and will by themselves toe in/out just beacuse they are gripping and pulling so well.


While it preserves the pitman and idler arms, I am betting that it also reduces the amount of flexion experienced by the centerlink in situations such as the pictures shows. May well do, I hadn't given it much thought, but will get back around to installing my one, once I get a Rancho steering stab, and see if it helps.

This was without even locking the front, but the wheels are spinning and you can clearly see what happens as the suspension bounces and the center link flexes, causing the tires to deflect and pull in/out. That is a good way to break a tie rod.

Phil, does there happen to be video of you doing the same thing the picture shows?

Here we go with coincidences again. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif

Phil, your pic was before you blew the CV, correct? I wonder if there is any weight to my far-fetched idea of both tires toeing in stressing the CVs?

It's admittedly far-fetched. Especially since neither of you were locked up front and it's going through a diff anyway but ......

When you engage the rear lockers the whole truck shudders and IMO it’s also related to the rubber contact too. Too much traction when the locker is not needed, that's how you'll break stuff. With all the traction you have at Moab with those tires you rarely need to use the rear locker. In fact you can run many of the trails in 4Hi Open and only switch to 4Lo for the tougher obstacles.

FWIW I never use a rear locker when turning (apart from in bad mud), doesn't do the vehicle any good. Same goes for the front, it is usually only on for a few seconds, then straight off again. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>I am always on/off with the rear locker. I try to never have it on if the truck is turning unless it's just absolutely necessary.

This is just an opinion and this should in no way be taken as inflammatory, but bottom line is that this is not a reliable setup and I don’t see you having much fun with it. It does look cool as hell though.

You guys are for the most part running the same trails as us stockers and other than a few optional obstacles (that I never saw you try) there is not much you can do that a stock H2 with 37s can’t.

Given how far you drive and your need to have a decent chance of getting home you need to (a) get a trailer or (b) take the lift off and go to stock rims, HD tie-rods and 37s.

We did everything on the trails we ran except Hell's gate because of fear of gripping like Phil's did at the beginning decent and the hot tub because that had been done last trip. Everything else was taken in stride and harder lines were taken out of boredom. We could have wheeled more but- yes, the long trip home is more important than pushing it and Ken becomes understandably cautious after something goes wrong.

The lift gives you an advantage- in articulation and clearance. The tires though grippy are good, but I am considering a smaller tread.

I am happy with all except the extra play which makes it toe and possibly makes it more prone to half shaft and/or CV breakage. I am sure to find out the issue and resolve it.

I didn't hear any 'crack' when CP was coming up the Escalator. All I heard was a loud squeal and the sound of seat covers being sucked up into buttcracks. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

If you are going to mod your truck for wheeling, you might as well do what you can to it. Phil, Ken and a few others that have them lifted and wheel them are pretty much pioneering in this area so things will need to be worked out until perfection is reached. There will always be damage- even to the biggest fabricated rock crawling buggy. Everyone pays a price for wheeling their truck and pays more for how much and how hard.

I like Paragons idea of all of us going in together and buying an H2 for spare parts. We can bring it to Moab and then as we need things we have it. Then if you needed a part off the H2 then you have to have it replaced with the same part. Or we could all travel like the NASCAR teams. We just all need to bring a back-up Hummer. We know, Tim is already on that program. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Besides which there are only so many tie rods, half shafts and t-cases on a H2 http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif </div></BLOCKQUOTE>No NO NO. The concept is we all pitch in and buy some community owned salvaged H2. We'll drag it around in a purpose built trailer that will include tools, air compressors, generators, porta-cool, lots of beer, etc. When a breakage occurs then that community member pays the retail price to replace that part and it goes back into the parts bin. Of course, we have multiple versions on hand of some items we know we might need. eventualy we might end up with a new truck with a 5 year old brake pedal.

well thanks to Rox we are in salt lake now next door to the hummer dealer . got to see the truck today . left rear axle twisted apart , looks like it was stuck into a pencil sharpner . in the front it is the same as bebe's the front ring gear is toast . i am currently pimpin in a white base model with some bling courtesy of so. jordan hummer . these guys are great taking real good care of us . bebe is on the road heading west . she will be home sometime tomorrow .

the parts should be coming in tomorrow if not the guys say they can canabalize a new one and have me out by fri.

Now, a question to the folks that are smarter than me about this stuff....if the axle shaft was broken......could it eventually have worked it's way out of the casing and had the wheel come off?? seen it on Jeeps, just wondering if it would be different on the H's

S

The rear brake caliper bracket is what would hold it in, since the rotor is on the end of the axle shaft. If that were to break however...

So, the blue button is kinda like the nanomedicbatmobile? You push it and the truck starts fixing itself?

Not if the axle were twisted in two, Phil. The C-clip is inside the differential case, once the axle is broken the only thing holding the axle in is the rotor/brake caliper/bracket.

Try to make it through this Lion's Back video. Talk about a drama queen. Be sure to listen, though.

[h2co-pilot]

AWESOME. I can't say I wasn't thinking that same sh1t in my head and I wasn't even driving. Though I am typing this while it is still on and I can here him commenting at the top. "I'm going to get credit for this." http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif LMFAO, "Holy CerAP! How am I gonna turn around?"http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gifhttp://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

It was like doing it again though.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gifhttp://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif Perfect perspective for those who haven't been there. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

I don't know what is worse the instability of the Jeep or not being able to see sh1t beyond a huge Hummer hood. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif

[PackerFever]

LOL..."soemone on the forum said I should have my locker on."

[oma]

Cool video, but the guy is freaking hyperventalating!!! Why didn't he get the other guy with him to spot him when he turned around? What a dork. He should have followed someone up there who had been before. He was in a jeep for crying out loud. I did a three point turn the first time I went up and I was in my H1!

Make sure you watch/listen to the entire clip - he really loses it going back down. Best line was "Here's my $10, I want to die". He even starts talking to GOD. I was talking to my brakes the entire way back down.

[MarineHawk]

He's too anxious for his own good, but he was pretty funny at times.

[Fubar]

I think the camera was on a tripod mounted in the jeep. Either way LOL.. ROFLMAO. While I haven't driven it yet I've ridden and video taped it twice and it didn't seam that bad but I wasn't driving and that may bring a whole different level of OMFG factorhttp://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

On the next one, I'm going to be the last guy to go and go up backwards. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Wish you could have been with us in the Sand on Friday - driving through a washout gulley full of loose sand at 50mph w/ turbos fully wound up, sand roosers flying every few seconds, a caravan of 8,000# vehicles flying up on the sandy banks of the gulley to make the corners - it was like a cross between Daytona & the Baja!

I was so torn when I didn't follow you guys. I have been to alot of places but I had no rear locker...don't know if I neededed it (advice anyone)...and I listened to someone who said it would be tough in a 5 speed. I no longer believe it. The locker may have been an issue along with the street tires...but I think I should have and could have gone for it. (also remembering the wife in my head saying.."please don't do it". Never should have shown her that bronco video.)

Should have gone up...next time probably.

At one point someone said we should all have our forum names on our plates to help identify ourselves. I usually go by LVS, but someone already had it when I registered here so I just made up OMA because I live hear Omaha. It's kinda stupid!

I love that picture of Lion's Back!

Fun thread. I learnt more about tie rods than I had ever thought to ask (forget my question about them on another thread). Nice pictures from all but dang, Fubar's and KenP's avatars are distracting (in a nice way http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif).

Question: I saw that some brought along gas tanks, was extra gas needed on the trails by all the vehicles or were you all able to fill up each day somewhere off trails?

[Fubar]

There are several gas stations in Moab so filling up each morning is not a problem. White Rim being 90 miles long and by the book requiring 2 days to complete you might want some extra gas along but for many of the trails in Moab the need for extra gas cans is not a necessity.
