Just installed a new set of Goddyear Duratracs and got new tie end inner outer rods which I still need to install.
As of Dec 15th tie rod ends installed Going to get 4 wheel alignment today.
Bought mine the other day! Had a known water leak. Tracked it to a rotted out passenger side sunroof drain tube. Getting that CJB in and out is no joke.
Replaced front lower suspension arms, and did a tranny service. Found some extra original 19” mags wheels online (I know, I know) and got some new Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac installed, including a full size spare on a mag wheel. Installed a new spare tire lift. Disabled the TPMS and removed the wheel sensors. Superfluous! Transfer case fluid changed. Additional key fob ordered. Oh yeah. Replaced all the wipers.
I have a extra set of Duratrac in 255/65 19. 32.1” total diameter, adjustable 2.5” lift rods to accommodate the larger tire but modification are needed for tire steering clearance.

I ran mine down the highway for 1100 mile round trip. Only issue was an A pillar trim letting go about 75 miles into the trip.
Sorry to hear that. Which one did you loose?
We broke the right one (original I think) just south of Dallas before Christmas on the 2006 SE. Fortunate for us it did not come completely off (what a LOUD whistle sound that makes at 75 MPH). We taped it back on with Gorilla Tape at the next fuel stop and it held on for the rest of the trip.
You going to replace just one or both? Wonder if we can talk a vender into a group buy?
I'm going to repair it plastic weld the tabs back on and I found some trim pins that are a nice fit. Amazing how much wind noise happens when one is missing. It was the drivers side, this time.
