Yes, we are all 100% guessing as this is something kind of impossible to figure out through pics. You won’t know exactly until you get it to a mechanic.
I would like to know which way you’re holding the wheel. That’s the passenger rear that’s bent. If you’re having to hold the wheel to the passenger side(steer into it), I’m going to say the axle is 100% bent.
Take a straight edge with you when you go back, you might be able to find a spot...
A lot of work still ahead of me. Figure out wheelbase so I can figure out length of frame. I made the rear slide on the rails so I could play with it a bit. It will get cut back apart and boxed and yadda yadda yadda when I’m closer to suspension.
Superduty’s. 3 link or radius arms up front...
The 40 was in desperate need of a new tub and I always wanted to build a pickup. So that’s what I’m doing.
I have cut the 40 and frame and top. Slowly but surely piecing it all back together. I cut the body up at my old shop before I got rid of it. From the door back there wasn’t much of...
Well…as most things go. Life gets in the way. But I held on to the 40!
Interests changed. I built a 2nd gen ext cab pickup and wheeled that for awhile.
Now that the kids are older and I’m a little more settled, I am slowly but surely making my way back to this project.
The 1uz I had...
I wouldn’t just top off and go. I would buy a burp kit and make 100% sure there are no bubbles. I’d also do what @marques suggest. Though I would run the heat at full blast as the vehicle is coming up to temp vs the a/c.
All signs point to a seized caliper on the Pass(right) side.
I’m assuming you mean warping instead of seizing in your questions in reference to the rotor.
I would also stick with factory calipers as it also sounds like you may be going aftermarket with your previous replacements.
Might...
Honestly at 183k, I’d just keep using what you’re using. If it has been properly serviced for the last almost 200k, what really is to be gained? If a failure is destined to occur, isn’t changing viscosity prolonging, or possibly even hastening, the inevitable?
Selling my M1101. 4 pin. Good 235/85/16 load range E tires. Used it to haul dirt and gravel to my house and for my job. It definitely saw some use before it was released. But it pulls straight at any speed and is fairly easy to move around by yourself at home. I’ve hauled 3k+ a few times...
