    Pet Barrier alternative... Janky, but works

    My son and I sleep in the back of the truck so a "pet barrier" was a little pricey and limited this as an option due to space. I bought this piece of wire shelving for an attic rack, however I like having the headroom. This design works with the second row in or out, and the lower portion can...

    Do I need A DC front driveshaft?

    So I have about 5-5 1/2" of total lift and I have some symptoms that I am associating with either a bad or going VC, or the need for a DC front drive-shaft. Please let me know your thoughts: When I am accelerating, usually up to 20 MPH and before I feel a drive-line vibration, it seems to die...

    Is My Balancer Bent / Warped?

    I pulled the balancer once a year ago to replace a leaky crank seal and oil pump seal. Even bought a new 300+ lb/ft torque wrench. I know it was put on straight as the tolerance is to tight for it to go on anything but straight. I don't see how something of this mass can get bent, however I...

    Front Seat belt help Needed - Mechanism

    I decided my sloppy, droopy seat belts were the cause of great frustration and I pulled them. For the rear I would the mechanism tighter, washed and then pressure washed the belts, and reinstalled. The rear belts now sit semi-tight when not in use. Not factory tight, but plenty good enough...

    Need RTH for spongy brake problem before and after rebuild

    History: My brakes are "spongy" for lack of a better word. The pedal depresses almost to the floor and then there is slight resistance for a few inches before the brakes engage. Over these few inches of resistance, the pedal travel is spongy and at no time "firm". I replaced all soft lines...

    Curiosity Question on Front Birf axle breakage

    Just a question I am wanting some clarification on. If I were out wheeling and broke a front axle or birfield, could I limp it home or is their risk of the now free axle damaging the tube or other components? I know if I break a rear driveshaft I can engage the CDL and drive home in FWD mode...

    RTH- Crank Seal

    I am replacing my crank seal while doing the oil pump gasket and believe I damaged it. Everything I read indicated that it is installed slightly recessed of the cover. When I had it flush with the cover it had it's original round shape. After recessing it slightly, the seal deformed as you...

    Need Oil Pump cover advise

    So I decided to undertake the leaky oil pump and have run into a snag. I got #3 impact bits and am using an impact driver, and the bolts (all of them) simply aren't budging. I soaked with PB Blaster for 3 days about every 6 hrs prior to attempting. Any advise before I damage the bolts?

    A/C clutch bearing replaced, now problems?

    So I did some needed PM on my LC today. I did the PHH and completely bypassed the heating as I live in AZ and have never used it, and there are to many points of failure for an unused item. The PHH was not hard IMHO, I removed the trans dipstick and access was tight but doable. With my Gates...

    So long story short, I installed extended brake lines and believe I got air up to the ABS unit. My brakes have been bled 3X including a dealership and pedal is crazy soft. Most posts seem to agree that a proportioning valve isn't needed (running 35"s) so I plan to delete the LSPV as well I...

    Am I crazy..Give me opinions befor I do something Stupid

    I have been toying with the idea of an off-road trailer for a while now. I see benefits to both the teardrop style (enclosed sleeper and no folding RTT) and the military style (flexible storage and cost). But at $10k-$20K it is just silly. Tent camping and the constant setup and break down...
