Added flag decals I got from RuggedT.



And messed around with my subwoofer wiring. Found out I should get a new amp, matched to the sub.

 

damn that looks good. What tires and what lift?

 

Saw my truck for the first time this month. Washed off the pollen that seemed like it was a half inch layer. Checked tire pressures, oil level, & tucked it back in the garage.

 

Installed projector headlamps and hid kit. Also removed my screwed up chrome westin bullbar. Removed center console around the shifter to paint it, found $2.62 in change and a bunch of old chips under there.gross.

 

drove her round and realized I need to force feed her

Finally got enough money to order my Weathertechs!

Made my own behind the grill light mounts and with expanded metal did the grill and blacked that out

 

Yesterday got another alignment. This time I got the caster where I wanted it, 3.2 and 3.5 with the camber and toe still in spec.

Today I woke up early to sand and paint my sliders before the wind picked up. After I finished up I installed the superbumps that arrived yesterday.

 

I completed the axle wrap install and after driving around yesterday and today....NO MORE BUMP!!!!

Thanks for your help guys!

Installed the 2.5 in wide (Autozone Part Number: 13-1401A) clamps about 4in in front of the axle and torqued them down to 50ft lbs. That did the trick!

I am happy happy happy.



BTW- I also torqued down the axel U-bolts as well - 85ftlbs in a cross pattern.

 

Installed AAL and had a beer. Like the small height gain....can't ait to fit the Bilsteins in the front.

 

Added stickers.

 

Please explain to the poor, dumb newb... why the extra u-bolts? Was there a leaf-pack alignment problem?

 

Ordered some Weather Tech's --

 

Does that fix the bumping when when taking off from a stop?

 

With 4.88 gears, you're totally set up for it. I know how my truck feels with 4.56's and 33's. Yours must be really over geared with 4.88's on 33's eh?

 

Might want to check the torque on your axle U-bolts. They should be > 74 ft-lbs. All previous reports I've seen on TW where the extra clamp "fixed" axle wrap, the axle U-bolts were undertorqued.
