No pictures today, sorry!

But...my friends and I changed the rear u-joints today and got rid of all my shake/wobble issues. He is driving as smooth as a new car now.

On Saturday we'll put on new front u-joint, excited about that.

I need LED front Blinkers, anyone have suggestions?

You're welcome! :)

Tires are a good guess too, but it sounds like you found the cluprit. And I've been trying to figure out the muffled rubbery noise too but.. haven't had any problems with it *shrug* I've driven a couple other sammies and they seem to've had the same noise..

By LED blinkers do you mean just LED bulbs??

Yeah, my other Samurai had the same noise when I turn..."grunt grunt" kinda noise, but it's not me.  I swear I am strong enough to turn the wheel! 

I need LED blinkers, not just bulbs.  This Samurai does not have blinker fixtures or anything...just wires affixed to the winch bumper.

I think I will go to a Truck Stop & get some LED blinkers there.
