    It must be environment because my uppers never squeaked, it seems like it's hit or miss with that. I remember I went wheeling with MartyMcFly and his LT single cab 2nd gen, you would hear his truck squeaking down the trail before you even saw him. That would bug the hell out of me.

    mine have made noise, but drop some triflow and give it a few miles and it silences them.

    Really only from the bottom up. From rocks and such. Sam could try welding the tc skids to stock lca and have the bushing sleeves wrapped. You risk warping the arms though.

    Its the bushing squeak that kills me. I don't get any noise from uniballs but with all the poly on my 4runner, it's pretty obvious when you need to bust out the grease gun.

    the 2nd set I bought for the uppers were from sdhq

    probably right .. gulf coast of texas here

    I've used several bottle of it, it helps for a little while but comes back. It's the pitting of the uniballs that makes the squeaks

    There wasn't much snow. The dozer just cleared the trail the day before. It was really nice being a little early. It was still listed as closed so people hadn't ventured there yet. Only saw 6 hikers and 1 jeep in that entire area.
    LMk what you're thinking And I'll cruise up for the day.

    Dude, potty training a 2 and a half year old is a fucking nightmare. Any tips? Tried candy. All he does is throw a fit when he's on the toilet. It's ridiculous.

    Boys apparently suck to potty train, which is funny because it's damn easy for us to take a pee. haha

    My daughter was super easy, so no help here. We had potties in every room though and used diapers at night for a while until she felt comfortable. Obviously we have had accidents (still do at 5.5 years as she waits too long and they really has to go), but we just made her feel comfortable and that it wasn't a big deal.

    Tried the tablet. He's just not a fan of the potty at all. It's so frustrating. Hopefully he gets interested soon. I'm gonna try the underwear thing and let him get uncomfortable with a wet one and see what happens.

    It's hard to get frustrated and try and not yell at him when he's throwing a fit but boy...I feel bad after I do yell at him for not using it when I know he needs to go!
