    Just got a thumbs up and "sick truck" from a 14 year old on the street. My hard work has finally paid off, I blame the RTT though. #EAF

    They don't. That's actually where I shamefully ordered from initially. They're having a business spat with TC.

    I believe I mentioned that my mother in law was dying of cancer and that she didn't have a lot of time left... Well, she passed away yesterday. Sweetest lady I have ever known. Wish she was my real mom... In the end, her death was a mercy. The cancer was eating through her spine, had taken over her intestines and liver, and had eaten away all the healthy tissue of her aorta...it was a cancerous tube that carried her blood. Cancer is truly a bitch.

    On a lighter note, I know EAF means Expo as F*ck... What the hell does that mean?

    Sorry to hear that man. Condolences to you and your family. Also lost my mom to cancer quickly, and like you said, it was mercy.

    On that lighter note, Expo = Expedition. Expedition Portal had those oval stickers (like "GB" for Gambia... or possibly Great Britain) that read "Expo". Then it turned into a thing...

    What was wrong with your rear diff dude?

    Hey you should hold off on replacing the uniballs until I can get some real world feedback on those Icon Delta Joints. People are starting to use them and if they pan out well, it is only a matter of time until they release them as retrofits for other brand UCA's like yours and mine also. Mine are squeaking to hell but that's nothing a little spray won't temporarily cure. For a year at most until they release their non proprietary joints.

    I always get lost at Icon also, but their uniball/ ball joint hybrid seems to look really well thought out so I'm willing to entertain that until I am informed differently. I'm tired of hearing squeaky mcsqueakin' ALL the time. I want to just hear the blower whine and that's it. Lol.

    Check my build.

    Solid pass on anything Icon related. My Camburg uniballs are just starting to get a little pitting and rust due to me not cleaning them off enough. Ordering replacements, will probably take about 30 minutes a side or so to replace.
    Honestly Uniballs wouldn't creak if everyone kept them clean constantly and threw some dry lube in there occasionally. I had mine all cleaned up and lubed, creaks and squeaks gone, got to hollister and got behind a group of crawlers kicking up dust, truck immediately started squeaking.
