    Not that I've ever been a NBA fan, but the Lakers/Pacers final would turn anyone off..hack-a-Shaq. I get the strategy but watching free throws half a game would turn most anyone off

    What really annoys me is that you're starting to see some of that 'if you can't keep up, try to draw a foul' mentality creeping into football now too.

    I wouldn't disagree that it's related to the carrier bearing but I'm not sure dropping it would make things any better. I think the bigger issue is that the rubber holding the carrier in place is weak and the shutter you're feeling is from the drive shaft moving that rubber around. When I replaced my carrier with a Dorman, the shutter went away completely. The bearing itself turned out to be shit and I went through 2 in under 1,000 miles but the shutter was completely gone. I went back to OEM and the shutter came back. If I kept the Tacoma, I would have looked more seriously at the solid mount bearing from the Super Duty.

    I have the same shudder at start. I do have the drop installed.

    Think I'll have to pass. Rather spend 450-600 and get a set of 5 level 8 mk6.

    People are flopping in hockey now, too. It sucks. I hate the way hockey calls the penalties though. I get called for a trip AND you get called for an embellishment. How the hell is that possible? Is a trip OR an embellishment, not both!

    so with the SCS ray10's sold out... I've been looking at the mickey thompson classic baja lock. Just can't wait for the next shipment only to miss out again. My pelfreybilt bumper and OME suspension should be arriving next week and I'd like to get the wheels soon. The price for these seem pretty decent too at $144 ea. What do you guys think?? size 16X8 bolts 6X5.5 backspace 4.5"

    I do like those a lot! If I was going to upgrade wheels I'd go with something like those. Do it!

    Wise decision! I was being ridiculous even suggesting it.

    My ultimate goal is to get my '16 alloys on my snow tires, put my '13 alloys on my OEM '16 tires and sell those and get BFGs.

    What will actually happen is I'll wear out the '16 tires probably 4 years from now and then get BFGs. T minus 4 months until I'm child-poor.

    The last NBA finals I watched from start to finish was Jordan's Bulls versus Barkley's Suns. Seemed like after that the league became a 1 on 1 isolation game with all the other players just watching. And I tend to think that back then, when you went down the lane and got fouled, it was a hard clean foul and you didn't do it again.

    Yeah the 17 gets up and goes. Haven't done more than 85 in it. Don't want to fall victim to false confidence.

    No doubt in my mind, this guy is a freakin moron!

    Same. I'm working Tues-Sat now.

    What is it you do for work again... You never seem to be doing much working...
    Wagon wheels? Pics??

    Absolutely ridiculous, but pretty entertaining! :laugh:

    Exactly. When you're approaching triple digits and thinking you're doing 55, it's an issue. I've never driven a car that's disguised it's speed quite so well. Even the Vette feels faster than you're going.
