    Default Teraflex joint rebuild?



    In my seemingly endless battle against JK death wobble, the next thing in line is my control arm joints that have play in them.

    Anyone done this before? Anyone have the tool?

    Considering using the MetalCloak replacement joint (looks easier),

    I helped Cliff with his Terraflex joints once. We did not have the snazzy tool, we made up the procedure as we went along. You could probably make a press similar to the one in the video.

    Regardless of what product you install, you will need to compress the joint to service it.

    You can do it with a large c-clamp and a couple sockets.
    I've got the inserts on my site if you still need them.
