    Ratings, plain and simple. Just like they plaster the face and name of the "suspected" person(s) of gun massacres, even though it encourages copy cats. News media just want the ratings.

    i went out and jumped on my front end and it was dead silent. I think it was the uniballs still being dry and not worked the lube through yet. False alarm @Bentrodder

    Some guy had them at his shop when I picked up center pins. I thought they were selling them used and wanted to buy them.

    Yeah that would drive me bat shit crazy. My old Camburg UCA made a similar noise. Needed grease, but it took a couple of days for the grease to fully alleviate the squeak...

    No video but my drive me crazy noise came back today. Tap tap tap at freeway speeds from the passenger fender. Traced it to a loose antenna months ago. Came back today but the antennas not loose. Had to listen to it to Fresno and back :annoyed:

    i couldnt take it and loosened the bolt on the UCAs (which the ICON resi mount blocks completely..FU Icon designers). I pushed enough grease to push the old dirty stuff out and then tightened it down and cleaned the area. Then i dropped some excess of triflow on the uniballs and then went out and hit it hard on the streets. It went away thankfully. I believe Iggy was right and it was the uniballs. But the bushings needed grease anyway. This drove me absolutely insane day in and day out.

    Yes they're monstrous 40s. You called the combo. I joked about it self clearancing on the roll out of the shop, but he'll trim it up. Badass rig. I'll take the crawl box, please :drool:

    Yeah surprisingly the 285/75/17's aren't that expensive. $950 for 4 shipped. Makes it tempting if I wasn't so broke haha.

    That fridge group buy gained traction fast, looks like it will get to that 25% discount easily, pretty stoked that will be an awesome price and it ranks higher than the ARB. No more ice chest, fuck yeah!

    Ya dude I'm stoked big time. I've been holding out for the right opportunity for a long time, and this looks like a killer deal on a great fridge...

    Trying to keep track of all the Norcal members on the fridge sign up list. I believe we currently have 5 including @tacomgee so I'll try to see what pricing we can get currently. If the GB goes above 30 total orders I might have to cut it short so I can keep it manageable.
