    Eh.. pretty much anywhere. I usually go to tandalls "76 in waipahu". Not because they let things go, but rather just to support the little guys... last time I went in, she failed me for LEDs in the parking and some burnt bulbs on my camper 3rd brake.. I fixed those (the LEDs temporarily just for the next check) then still went back.

    Well, Servco basically was explaining to me how I had to pound sand. The good thing is that my steering makes no sound at all at the dealership. What are the chances of whatever was making the creak non existant while at Servco. Since it went away I figure it's not worth the $125 they charge for diagnosing the sound. Which they can't diagnose anyway because everything seems perfect now. :rolleyes:

    Any of you guys lazy like me and don't like washing your truck? I only do it because it's my first new vehicle and I want to take care of it, but are there any good car wash places? Wouldn't mind paying a few bucks if the machine/person does a good job. I like taking my gf's 95 Accord to the car wash by Costco Waipio. LOL

    Dana, that's a good thing. Hopefully the sound doesn't come back now.

    Just curious....did you go wheeling before the steering creek?
    When ever i play in dirt my steering creeks too. But as soon as i wash the steering linkage and spray some oil on it. It disappears......

    Mine appeared out of nowhere. The noise was coming from within the steering rack. There's no play all in anything. Luka heard it while it was at it's worse. I was afraid that my steering rack was crapping out and now I really don't know what was making it do that because it stopped. I wish it was the end links or bushings that I could replace. An OEM rack is close to a grand.

    New to Oahu and excited to be here. Just Looking for some places to wheel and thought I'd check in here to get some advice. Just applied for the kaena point permit but thought I'd ask for some other spots to go / any good shore fishing spots and tips. Looking forward to seeing everyone out there

    Anyone know someone/anybody locally that can fab up bolt on sliders, at an affordable price range?

    I so wanna get one one for my Pro. Checked out the vendors but damn the shipping kills it for me.

    I have a ways to go. My tires aren't even bald yet. I just keep looking at tires and it makes me want to try a different set.

    Thanks for the recommendations.

    I've also checked out Marshall Offroad Fabrication and they seem to have it priced right. Not looking for anything fancy or do anything hardcore. Just maybe light off-roading.
