DO NOT FORGET TO REMOVE ALL THRUST WASHERS FROM THE CARRIER BEFORE INSTALLING THE GRIZZLY. IT SHOULD BE COMPLETELY EMPTY!

Don’t forget to tell the people about the thrust washers that have to be removed in the carrier if they want to run the grizzly locker!!! The guy who did my gears didn’t remove them and it caused EXTREME binding on the locker. It was the most brutal bangs every time I would turn along with the tire chirp. Didn’t ratchet at all like it’s supposed to. Eventually the springs on the locker bound inside themselves, if that makes sense, and now the locker is just there and doesn’t function at all. Hence the reason I’m watching this video lol great video btw, this video along with JK Gear and Gadgets video on the 14b regear is freaking incredible. Keep us RUclips mechanics educated!

I don't have an off road vehicle. I don't plan on building one. The complexity of rebuilding these always fascinates me though and for some reason I find myself down and ADD rabbit hole of investigating something I probably won't ever do. Great video, even I could understand it.

What did you do to match up the wheel lug pattern for the 14 and the 60?
