Re: Steering Stops on TJ
Hey now..... it would probably cost the 3 cents per vehicle to use
anti-seize on every nut and bolt...... I for one would never pay an additional 3 cents ... well... they have to make a profit.... 5 cents on the retail price of a car in order to save hours of frustration and busted knuckles.... The bean counter who recommended not using plated bolts probably got a million dollar bonus.....

Re: Steering Stops on TJ
You wouldn't want to have a Jeep that lasted 30 years would you ? I mean
that would deprive you of the opportunity to go and buy a more modern Jeep every few years !!
