    I have them and they work great. Just as long as you know a welder or can weld they’re the best bang for your buck

    I have them, but I've only used them to stand on to reach my roof when I wash the dust that settles on my immobile vehicle. :anonymous:

    Well then you have to pay to have them set and get new r&p so you're not really saving any money.

    I've decided I'm not gonna get em, Zuk hardly wanted anything to set them up so no matter what I'll have to buy gears and rebuild kits, def not getting anything from ECGS. But I don't really need 4.56s and rear ARBs are easy to come by, if it was a front ARB I'd be on it.

    Yeah I checked, def no air nipple unless they hid it in a bad position. Not the right gears for me, you're right 5.29 is where I need to be.

    I have installed a powered dimming rear-view mirror with directional compass from a 2006 Toyota 4runner. Just a power and ground are needed along with mirror adhesive.DSC00345.jpg

    Finally had a half day to work on my pile:

    Found out my sst for the pilot bearing did not exactly work.

    Tried the grease method - not the answer for me. But it came out nice and easy anyway :rolleyes:

    Got the rear main seal out and back in.

    [​IMG]

    Found out brake clean doubles as wasp killer (they were making a nest in my engine hoist)

    [​IMG]

    Got my replacement clock - thanks @hokiee!

    [​IMG]

    Cleaned up one of my parts hoarding caches.

    Yikes, how did that bearing get so messed up. Took about 3 mins to remove mine with the grease method.

    I think I got mine cock eyed and then the grease was pouring out the side and killed the pressure effect.

    Messed up? My dremel wouldn't know anything about that :anonymous:
