Great pics of the teardowns! I really need to check my portal gears (which I should have done when I put the brass portal covers on, lol). I went with 60wt oil for my shocks and it made a pretty big difference, much better than the stock oil IMHO.

Looks so much better with the black backing. Good job on the stripe/lettering too!
Nice work!

Man, that looks great! I've been thinking about painting the hardtop section on mine black, maybe over the Christmas shutdown.
Brian,
Careful with the bed liner spray. I acquired a JK body that was done that way on the top and ender flares. It is still tacky after 2 years.
I have used the same truck bed liner technique for my inner fenders and truck beds on my Ultra, also using the Rustoleum product. Took overnight for them to fully cure but after that no issues with mine.
I have found it adheres to the surface well, and takes a really good rash to cause it to scrap off. Even stands up to bending/twisting well as it is a pliable material. Adds a lot to the scale appearance too.
Personally I would not use it on a part that was going to receive a lot of rock rash as it will probably wear off quick. But for the more protected pieces or if you are just trailing I think the appearance it adds is a nice touch.
Those hubs look great. I used the ssd ones on my 10.3 JLU. Wish the made them for the VS4-10.

I will check them out. I know the vs410 at least the ultra the shafts and the nut is larger than the axialFor the money they’re not bad. I do like the looks of the SSD hubs. I need to get a set of them to try out.
I just checked to see if these China hubs fit my VP hubs on my VS4-10 and they fit like a glove. So they should fit your VS4-10 if you’re running VP SLW hubs.

Excellent work so far BMow! Hey what’s the brand of that thin white tape you’re using? Looks handy.
Love the hand cut JT logo too "thumbsup"
