I’ll take these if still available. 400k refresh she needs them

Looks like a few of us have gone this route now, definitely a nice little upgrade for $20 and an easy afternoon. Just line up with one of the holes in the crossmember and you only have to drill through the Tupperware. 1 🍌 job

My thought was that with 35s, the stock 4.3 gearing would be unbearable (based entirely on others opinions on this forum and elsewhere). It’s noticeable with 33s, especially in the mountains around here. Can’t imagine how bad it would be with larger tires. Was hoping to improve mpg as well, but...

Somebody talk me out of selling my Nitro 4.88 regear kit. I feel like the $1600 could be better used elsewhere, and after just tackling a regear job with a buddy I don’t know that I want to go through that again. I think I’d rather rebuild an engine than have to regear again. I know there’s a...

Just a heads up for the future, those cables aren’t worth s*** in the mountains. If you can afford it, go with actual chains if you’re going to be doing any driving in real snow. I drive those passes daily and have seen some pretty unbelievable things. Those broken cables litter the roads...

Yeah definitely replace the air box, it’s missing a piece right where it seals. No bueno. Bet you can find a used one pretty easily and for much cheaper than new. Or upgrade to the cyclonic filter I’ve seen in a couple rigs! The damage seems to be very similar to what happened to mine. But...

If you want it done perfectly like it never happened, and a body shop to do the work, it’ll definitely not going to be cheap. That’s how the insurance co was able to so easily write mine off as totaled. If you are ok having a less than perfect inner fender (not the fender itself, the body...

I smashed mine up good a few years back, in the same spot. It’s really not that much damage, but the insurance co called mine totaled so they could save some $. I was able to continue driving to work when all was said and done. The other car was headed to the junkyard. These things are tanks...

Screw seafoam. I tried this out and it gave me a good scare. Isolated the issue to an ignition coil, the plug was completely fine though. Replaced the coil and we’re good again, finally. After some research, it’s a fairly common issue. How it kills ignition coils and wires is beyond me, maybe it...

Congrats bro!

Can’t get enough of this pic. Representing for my new favorite 100 color! I might be biased though... 3x locked? Just realized it looks like some daylight under that rear tire

Do you still have any fluid? How much do you want for them? I’m finally getting a chance to refresh my AHC and hopefully get another 370k out of it. Did well for the 100k I’ve been the owner, but starting to show signs of needing maintenance. This thread has helped confirm my belief that, in...

Could be worse, I’ve seen over $5 plenty of places here 🤷‍♂️

Hey give the man a break, he’s at home it’s not like he’s out in public wearing them! (giving benefit of the doubt, just don’t tell us if you do wear them in public)

Does anyone know which tools are required to do this in the field? I’ve got 360k miles on my front diff and it’s the earlier 2-pinion design. Until I get the funds or time to finally install the lockers and regear kit, I feel like I’m on borrowed time. OTOH, I’ve really put this truck through...
