For anyone who recently purchased, did Rugged Ridge fix the improper thread issue? Are the correct sized thread bolts included now?

My Husband installed it in his 2010 Jeep Wrangler with no problems and he loves it.

I didn't have any issues with improper threads on any of the items...I think I got my unit about a year ago...Hope this information helps. Jerry

If you already have the pilot hole drilled, then what is the hesitation about driving the lag bolt in? It will either go or it won't. If it only goes part way before the drill stops, then you can always finish driving it in with a box end wrench or socket wrench or drill the pilot hole to 7/16" and try again. This is not rocket science at this point. I'm done.

You probably did not miss anything. I had to spray mine with WD40 and once i got them to move, by screwing them back and forth, I put white lithium grease on the threads. The threads and nuts get road grime on them and will start to corrode the threads and nuts. The grease will help stop this. Also be careful not to drag them when towing. Once you bend them they are very hard to get straightened and even harder to open up.

Sadly, no. I never even noticed. Thankfully the base is easy to drill and tap. The threads are m8x1.25.

I had same issue in my sks because i cuz it down except mine was to large had to mill it down what i did was used a strong drill bit and made 4 dimples for the screw points to grap and used thread lock its worked flawless just be sure to line the adaptor with barrel or risk sending it down range with a round

I just went to ace hardware and picked up some new bolts. About a dollar a bolt though. I did buy the high quality ones. No more stripped bolts. Works great.

The stock that I ordered came with a mounting bolt and fit just fine. I haven't had any problems with it at all.

I dound the right thread dog at Best Service Store. Volere PRB 3058. It came as a set of deive dog and prop and nut. Different size prop though. Not a real great fix. Hit me back if you dind a better dix

I ordered mine and one of the bolts wasn't machined. Not that big of a deal but when fit up came there was a misalignment in the part. I had a metabo grinder so I did a small fabrication. For the money you can't go wrong. I'm not quit sure if the 2014 would be much different.

This may not be much help, but my 2003 has the course thread, but the bearings with fine thread were cheaper, so I got those and just swapped out the studs. Easy fix to save some money!

some spindle assy come no threads. I went to fastenal and bought the bolts and nuts and put the spindleon the deck. Note that you have self locking nuts to where nuts will not back off your bolt

Its possible you may have stripped the threads , you could take it apart and check , I have about 50 rounds through mine without that issue.

I thought mine was faulty as well. But I was using the wrong bolt for the wrong hole. Bolt should not go all the way through, also it should not stop at flat(not sure the technical term) space -part without the thread. That part should go into the hole about 3mm. Watch this video and you will see what I mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IP_Wh_-RXzUNow I have nearly zero wobble, I think i will put some "black RTV" soon around the hitch, that should make it even more secure.

You need Rugged Ridge part# 11025.02. Search the above. Amazon has in stock.

I found all my runout (more than you) to be in the spindle. I emailed WEN customer support and they are sending me a new spindle. I hope that swapping it out will get me the results many others have had. I have many MT#2 tapers and chucks that all run true, so if the spindle is correct, everything else should fall into place.
