The clip was still on the mounding. Adhesive had just dried up I guess. Glass shop is re-glueing it down. Still gonna order a few new clips.
Thanks everyone.

This. Go with the undersized spare.
Although you won't generate any extra heat with a Torsen diff at any normal speeds. (nor from the open diffs in the axles)
You would be able to drive at highway speeds to a tire shop.
The following is on Torsen's website:
Ed,
Thanks for contacting Torsen. Our products have been used in vehicles that have had a mini-spare tire that was as much as a 25% difference in diameter smaller than the main tire. If kept to the operational restrictions (speed and distance), this falls within what the differential can handle. In the case of a tire that’s only about a ¼” difference in size, it is a relative non-issue – for the Torsen differential.
I put a 245/75r18 on the original spare rim. 32.5h x 9.6w.This is excellent feedback right from the horses mouth. Thank you.
Agreed heat is the question, highly correlated with speed. The greater the difference, the less I'd be inclined to hold normal highway speeds, but anything under 3-5% is of no concern. The torsen is at the center diff, which further averages differences across the axle, for rotational differences at each tire.
In regards to matching spare - I think ideally we'd all want a matching spare. I've had to use a narrower 275/65R20LT (specs 34.1"x11") spare to keep departure clearance. I think there's connotations with "spare", but the reality is that a 275/65R20LT spare is still a full performance tire and could be used indefinitely. Just doesn't match my 35x12.5s, but are within 1% of rotational difference.
285/70R18 and 285/75R17 will fit (33.8) without touching the panhard rodPossibly, but even moving to a smaller spare, like a 295/70R18, it'd still rub. The OEM spare is 32" and obviously doesn't touch. Maybe I just keep what I have and not worry.
I used this to glue the clip back on: 3M Black Super Weatherstrip and Gasket Adhesive, 08008, 5 fl oz, 1 Per Pack https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00063X38M/?tag=ihco-20The plastic piece adjacent to the sun roof, in what I would call the roof rail track has recently popped up a bit. Anyone know of a common use adhesive to secure it back flush, and/or another way to fix it?
TIA.

More of an observation than a SQOD. The design of the plastic cover on the rear window wiper has to be one on the dumbest things I have ever seen.
I think a mod does thatI was finally going to create a build thread and, for the life of me, I can't see how to create the correct BUILD prefix. Only option I see is some Tech prefix called "WDYD". I clearly am not not smart enough to be on forums![]()
oh, so I just create the thread and a mod then comes behind me and turns it into a "Build" thread?I think a mod does that
Yep!oh, so I just create the thread and a mod then comes behind me and turns it into a "Build" thread?
you can turn off the power lift gate and do it by hand. Switch is up by the steering wheel. no beeper in manual mode. Still get the close beeper on the tailgate section when it puts the electronic lock on that though.Does anyone know where the annoying beeper is located that sounds off when the ligtgate is opened?
I've had remote in one hand and ear against the truck, listening all over, and can't figure out where it is. As best I can tell, it is underneath somewhere, seemingly above the muffler, but I sure can't find it. It seems loudest when at a campground and I need some thing in the back late at night...
Thanks for any suggestions!

Finally figured this out, I noticed that the passenger door lock was not locking (actuator) so I locked it manually and it started working again. Then noticed the car was actually trying to tell me something because when I would come back to the car and it would unlock automatically and the lights flashed 10-12 times instead of the usual 2 times to say the door was not unlocking.over the last few days when I lock it with the fob or the handle it does not blink or move the mirrors in, still locks, just not lights or mirrors.
any thoughts on what might be going on?
Thank you! I'll get on that this weekend!!This thread has pictures of where it i
I did not know that! Thank youno beeper in manual mode.
I wouldn't call it a ponzi scheme, more of a pyramid scheme like Amway or Cutco knives. But, I do use it because I have "preferred customer" status, and I can click a few clicks and it's on my front porch a few days later. I like the gallon jugs.honest sqod: Isn't Amsoil like bitcoin, a huge ponzi scheme?
in your opinion, how does it compare to Royal purple or mobile1?
