    bilstine 5100 shocks in front, bilstine 5150s in rear, ome 3inch lift springs in rear, ome 2.5inch lift springs in front. 265/75/16 snow tires till my 285/75/16s get in. 2 ten inch custom subs in my custom box, ran by a hifonics 2400d amp. breather tubes to front and rear diff to keep from sucking in water. building a tube bumper with my brother right now to hold a warn vr8000 winch.
    I'm cool with the cattle. Makes sense that people are busy, I'm actually trying to find a new job right now, then when I do I'm going to get new tires and a winch. I'm going to go with 295/75/16 equivalent to 33.4/11.6/16 and the warn 9.5 synthetic line.

    when you guys did your 90k maint, did you replaced the front and rear diff oil? or is that only just if you tow a lot?

    another question...short of the truck being floppy and not holding an alignment, how do you know if the wheel bearings are going bad? they aren't designed to be replaced every so many miles right?

    oh shit that's probably what I've been hearing haha. Although I noticed it right after lifting. It wasn't a gradual thing so maybe it's something else.

    ok. i'll bet mine are still good. i had JTS check them, and they said they were making noise, but they had just put studded tires on them, and they wine like crazy, but they definitely didn't before the studs.

    You should be able to jack the front end and spin the tire and see if you hear anything, then grab the top and bottom of the tire and shake it to see if it has play.

    For trd sports with a mechanical lsd, rear diff is every 30k. I believe toyota has the other fluids as "check level and replace as needed" for 90k. Lots of water crossing,towing, other abuse doesnt hurt to change it anyway.

    I just did my rear diff oil for my 90k. Ended up replacing the front diff anyway when my seal went out a month ago.

    This. :)
