    I've tried pulling on it. It's set up for a spanner wrench - which would mean it's threaded I would think. Going to keep pulling on it.

    image.png Does anyone run bypasses outside the frame with a tundra axle? I think they will rub my tire...I really wanna get rid of the bar across the bed so I can load dirt bikes easier ..still haven't decided on a easy way to get then outside the frame

    Did you use 3/16" plate ? How close was the shock to the frame?

    It's been a while since I read this. I don't remember if he has a tundra axle. Just a little something to look at.

    Glad to hear that cause trying delrin has been on my mind lately but I'll stick to what we currently have. In video you can see the engine flex a bit but nothing too bad. Beefed up the frame rail area this last time around enough to get us thru the Mint. Engine will likely come out again this summer and at that point I may redo everything in the area for piece of mind.

    stuff and things
    For anyone on the central coast in California: where's a good spot to get my alignment checked out in the 805 (Santa Barbara/Santa Maria)? Truck is long travel so I want to know that they know what they're looking at (because I'm obviously not good at it).
