    I've been wrenching on my truck a lot in the last few weeks! I ordered my front 5100's from DSM and installed them set at 1.75", replaced the bad bearing on the front passenger side, twice, got a bad bearing and had to get another one! Of course I had vibes when I lifted, so I ordered the bushing from ECGS and fixed that. Got a new set of 265/70/17 General AT 2's and had the front end aligned, also put on All Pro 1.5" spacers and painted my wheels Semi flat black. What do you think?ImageUploadedByTapatalk1343526032.544590.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1343526056.056751.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1343526079.749035.jpg

    I really wanted to go with new UCA's and 2.5" on the Billies and new leaf packs out back but I had to have tires so that comes first, maybe I can rat hole some $ and do it soon

    East Coast Gear Supply makes a bushing that replaces the faulty needle bearing in the front differential
